Caption:

This 1969 image depicts cargo ships that were docked in the Port of Jakarta, Indonesia. This particular ship was named the Latowa, and at the time, was registered as an Indonesian vessel. Water resource developments, including canals, rivers, lakes, and streams, can become breeding grounds for disease carrying vectors such as mosquitoes, which makes the control of these insects a paramount concern, especially for those, who use these bodies of water for business, as was the case here, or pleasure.
