em>Your comments on a giant landslide that killed dozens of people in a hamlet in Banjarnegara, Central Java and the government's anticipatory measures as the rainy season continues and landslides and flooding remain a threat in many parts of the country:
They should learn from this incident not to cut down trees in forests and hoard lumber.

We have to see the landslides that claimed dozens of residents as a warning.
Landslides can be prevented if local people are aware of the importance of protecting the environment.
Start to act. Start to prevent it before it's too late.

Let's start to help our brothers and sisters in Banjarnegara. They need our support.
They need food, medicine or at least moral support from us. Such a disaster could serve as a warning that we need to protect our environment.
Risky
It is a warning about the importance of protecting the environment.
Heni Kurniawati
Indeed deforestation is the most likely cause of this tragic incident and the President and the government must find new ways of effectively tackling and eradicating this scourge of nature.
However, right now, our thoughts, prayers and condolences are surely with all of the victims and the families of those affected by this terrible event.
