Photo Joke that becomes newspaper headline news
The photo above was taken in Pagarsih street, Bandung city, 28 November 2012. Then submited to Kompasiana online magazine by someone nicknamed Los Ninos.
Located in west area of Bandung city, Pagarsih street is known as area where always flooded in every rainy season due to bad drainage. However, after the photo above displayed in Kompasiana for few days, there's no any action from Bandung city govt.
Lack of attention from Bandung city govt made a Pagarsih street resident, Gangga Saputra, concerned. Then he modified this photo with digital photo processing to be a satirical picture.
This is the photo that has been processed by Gangga Saputra. Gangga shared this photo through Facebook and got many likes. An environment observer from Bandung, T Bachtiar Geo, gave naration to remind govt and people about bad drainage in Bandung city.
Later in Sunday 9 December 2012, Pikiran Rakyat, the biggest newspaper in West Java province displayed this modified photo in its front page and made this photo as the headline news.
