The flood, beginning on February 2, 2007 was a result of heavy rain, deforestation in areas south of the city, and waterways clogged with debris.[2] The flood is considered the worst in the last three centuries, including the 1996 and 2002 Jakarta floods, which killed 10 and 25 people respectively.[3] The final official death toll was 80.[4] CausesMeteorologicalThe most significant reason of the disaster is the high rate of rain, since the rainy season in Indonesia starts in December and ends in March. In 2007, the rain intensity reached its peak in February, with the greatest intensity towards the end of the month.[5] GeographicalUncontrolled population growth in urban areas, poor land use planning, and the lack of understanding among city residents and government about floods and its disaster risk are key factors in Jakarta's situation.[6] Eventually, water flowing into Jakarta overflows some of the city's flood control systems and causes devastation in these areas. ImpactThe flood affected 80 separate regions in and around Jakarta, and over 70,000 homes were flooded, resulting in the displacement of some 500,000 people.[7][8] There was a high level of illness, with 1,066 patients treated by hospitals due to diarrhea and 329 due to dengue fever.[7] The flood has caused Rp 8 trillion (US$879.12 million) in losses.[9] Approximately 190,000 people were affected by flood related illnesses.[10] The nature of the flood in which it extends from riverbanks to surrounding areas has caused the lower-class communities, many of which live on the riverbanks themselves in wooden houses, to take the strongest impact of the flood. Aid{{update|date=January 2014}}HOPE worldwide distributed 5 metric ton (11,000 lbs) of food, water, medicines, clean up kits to 10,000 people.[7][11]As of March 7, another 5 metric tons had arrived in Jakarta ready for distribution.[7] The total aid cost is expected to be $239,556 to benefit over 55,000 people.[7] So far, 10% has been committed by organisations such as McDonald's, Heart to Heart International and IOM.[7] See also
