Mr. Warsad (75) with his wife Mrs. Salma (60) pose for photograph in front of their house which demaged by tidal floods at Pantai Bahagia village, Muara Gembong sub-district, West Java province on June 13, 2020. Pantai Bahagia village is one of 5 fisheries villages in Muara Gembong sub-district, located on the northern coasline of Bekasi regency, West Java province, about 70 km from the capital city of Jakarta, which was most affected by tidal flooding and abrasion. The village, formerly known as the "Dollar Village" because of the prosperity of the income of its inhabitants as shrimp and fish pond farmers, has now slowly to be abandoned by its residence since 2005 after abrasion and tidal floods destroyed almost all of the ponds, as well as their homes. Some of them are left, trying to survive by switching their profession as fisherman with uncertain income. An illegal logging of mangrove forests which become a natural sea wave barrier for houses, shrimp and fish pond causes the Java sea waves to hit coastline directly which causes land eroded by abrasion. Conditions worsen when land levels continue to decline due to uncontrolled use of ground water and global climate change that makes sea levels rise, causing the village to be threatened in the next few decades if there are no serious countermeasures.
