My team and I have been stayed for 3 days in Kupang city to
cover some stories about nature and health. Every day we were circling the city
to meet some of our news sources and make us crossing the same path, over and
over again. Every day I saw through my car window there is some dry forest at
several area in Kupang city, Kupang regency and down to Timur Tengah Selatan
regency that took placed about 4 hour car drive.
Those forests withered, the leaves are falling one by one,
leaving the trees consisting only of branches and twigs and the leaves bend over
just to remain perched on the branches. "There’s no raining for a long time, even in the Timur Tengah Selatan
regency there’s no heavy rainfall for almost 2 years” said one of my
sources.
