Administrative Divisions INFORMATION PAPER Indonesia: Administrative Divisions Indonesia is the world's largest archipelagic state, stretching across both sides of the equator from the city of Banda Aceh at 05° 33' 28" N, 095° 19' 20" E in the west, to the city of Jayapura at 02° 31' 36" S, 140° 42' 51" E in the east. It is made up of over 17,500 islands (of which around 1,000 are permanently settled) strategically located along major sea lanes between the Pacific and Indian Oceans. The capital, Jakarta, is located near the northwestern coast of Jawa (Java). Its islands can be grouped into the Kepulauan Sunda Besar (Greater Sunda Islands) of Sumatera (Sumatra), Jawa, Sulawesi and the southern part of Kalimantan1; the Nusa Tenggara (Lesser Sunda) islands of Bali and a chain of islands that runs eastward through the island of Timor2; the Maluku (Moluccas) islands; and the western part of the island of New Guinea3. Indonesia Languages Indonesian (Bahasa Indonesia)4 is the official and most commonly spoken language in Indonesia, and is a modified version of Malay. It is the official language of the government and education. Over 700 local dialects of Indonesian are spoken, the most common of which is Javanese. English is also widely spoken in Indonesia. Administrative Divisions In May 1999, Indonesia embarked on a reform of regional governance5, decentralizing most functions of the government to the rural districts and municipalities and increasing local participation in politics and the economy. The Regional Autonomy Law6 gave authority to two levels of regional government, provinces (provinsi) at the first‐order administrative level (ADM1), and regencies (kabupaten) and 1 Kalimantan is the Indonesian name for the island of Borneo. Brunei and part of Malaysia are in the north of the island. 2 The eastern half of Timor is the independent state of East Timor. The Oecusse district of East Timor is an exclave in the western, Indonesian part of the island of Timor. 3 Papua is the Indonesian name for the island of New Guinea. The island is divided between two countries: the western half comprises the Indonesian provinces of Papua and Papua Barat, and the eastern half comprises the major part of Papua New Guinea (an independent country since 1975). 4 Article 36 of the Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia. http://www.ilo.org/wcmsp5/groups/public/‐‐‐ed_protect/‐‐‐ protrav/‐‐‐ilo_aids/documents/legaldocument/wcms_174556.pdf 5 Following the resignation of President Soeharto, in 1998. 6 Law No 22 of 1999 on regional autonomy. © Crown Copyright 2015 1 INFORMATION PAPER municipalities (kota) at the second‐order administrative level (ADM2) to make their own policies and local laws. Prior to the 1999 Regional Autonomy Law, there were 26 provinces and 299 second‐order administrative divisions. The province of Maluku Utara was created in 1999, and the provinces of Banten, Kepulauan Bangka Belitung and Gorontalo were created in 2000. Kepulauan Riau province was created in 2002 and Sulawesi Barat created in 2004. The newest province, Kalimantan Utara, was created in 2015. The number of provinces is likely to increase further. The administrative structure of Indonesia presently comprises thirty‐four (34) provinces (provinsi) at first‐ order level (ADM1). These are sub‐divided into 514 at the second‐order level (ADM2): 416 regencies (kabupaten) and 98 municipalities (kota) that are further divided into districts and again into administrative villages.

Published for the first time more than a decade ago as a booklet in a modest cyclostyled shape by the Cultural Department of the Indonesian Embassy in India, it has been revised several times in Jakarta in the same form to keep up to date with new discoveries and current theories. Since it seemed to have filled a need felt by foreigners as well as Indonesians to obtain an elementary knowledge of Indonesia's past, it has been thought wise to publish it now in a printed form with the aim to reach a larger public than before.

  • Statement on Crackdown in West Papua Against Flag
    STATEMENT ON CRACKDOWN IN WEST PAPUA AGAINST FLAG-RAISERS TAPOL, the Indonesia Human Rights Campaign 20 March 2008 According to latest reports from West Papua, more than a dozen Papuans have been arrested for taking part in peacefully unfurling their flag, the Morning Star (Kejora), some or all of whom are likely to be charged for rebellion (makar). The arrests were made following a series of protest demonstrations in Manokwari and Jayapura against Presidential Decree PP77 which makes it illegal to unfurl regional flags not only in West Papua but in other parts of the country as well. The peaceful demonstration on 13 March in Manokwari was organised by the West Papua National Authority (WPNA) and the Greater Manokwari Student Executive Council (Badan Eksekutif Mahasiswa, BEM). Following the enactment of the Decree, eleven Papuans were arrested in Manokwari on 13 March for flying the kejora in protest against the Decree. More arrests were reported on 19 March when the police took four people into custody in Jayapura for raising flags and for disturbing security. According to a report in the Jayapura newspaper, Cenderawasih Pos on 16 March, the regional police chief of Papua, Inspector-General Max Donald, said that the police would be taking action against those who unfurled the kejora flag in Manokwari and elsewhere. The eleven persons arrested in Manokwari are: Jack Wanggai, spokesperson of the West Papua National Authority, Frans Kareth, lecturer in economics, Markus Solig Umpes, Edy Ayorbaba, Daniel Sakwatorey, Marthinus Luther, Noak AP George Rasyard Ayorbaba, Ariel Werimon, Leonardus Decky Bame, Silas Carlos Teves May, aged 16 years.

The soil samples of 0-15 cm and 15-30 cm depth were collected from every site, respectively, from September 2005 to January 2008. The results revealed that the average of physicochemical properties of the soils from 0-30 cm depth in the sago-palm-growing areas varied depending on the site. Soil bulk densities were averagely higher in Seram (1.35 g cm-3) than those in Kendari (0.98 g cm-3) and Jayapura (0.89 g cm-3). Soil textures around Jayapura were dominated by silty loam. While in Seram soil texture was dominated by silty loam and loam, and around Kendari it was dominated by sandy loam, loam and silty clay. The averages of soil pHs were slightly acid (6.4) in Jayapura, acid in both Seram (5.5) and Kendari (4.9). Total carbons (total-C) in Kendari were higher (30.5 g kg-1) than those in Jayapura (27.2 g kg-1) and Seram (9.9 g kg-1).

  • The Face of Malay Culture in Indonesian Children‘S Readings
    Page International Journal of Malay-Nusantara Studies, Vol. 1, No. 1, May 2018. e-ISSN 2621-2951 p-ISSN 2620-9578 26-39 THE FACE OF MALAY CULTURE IN INDONESIAN CHI/DRE1¶S READ,NGS Ratna Djumala [email protected] Universitas Indonesia ABSTRACT: Awareness of national and cultural identity has nowadays become an increasingly popular topic of conversation. As the oldest culture in Indonesia, it is not surprising that Malay cultural values have embodied all aspects of Indonesian nationhood. Such values have been inveterately introduced to the people since their early age. Different media can be utilized to make this effort, one of which is children's readings. Despite the importance of introducing Malay culture to Indonesian society, however, not many children‘s reading seemingly contains the virtues of 0alay culture. As the result, children seem to have lack of knowledge and awareness of their culture of origin. While preliminary studies show that Malay cultural values can be found in Indonesian folklores, many Indonesian children are ironically not familiar with such folklores and instead more familiar with Malaysia-made animated shows such as Upin & Ipin and Pada Zaman Dahulu. With the strong influence of Malay culture in these two shows, it is understandable that Indonesian children learn more about Malay cultures from the shows. This paper aims to describe how Indonesian children recognize and learn about Malay culture from their readings, namely Upin & Ipin and Pada Zaman Dahulu. By observing this process, it is possible to identify any possible challenges to the cultural revitalization attempt, particularly of Malay culture, in Indonesian children's readings.

  • Conflicts-In-Federal-Systems-Mintz
    PUBLICATIONS SPP Research Paper Volume 12:14 April 2019 TWO DIFFERENT CONFLICTS IN FEDERAL SYSTEMS: AN APPLICATION TO CANADA*† Jack M. Mintz SUMMARY Canadians are used to taking seriously the threat of separation when it comes to Quebec, but a more serious, less manageable form of conflict may eventually emerge in the federation between Western Canada and the rest of Canada. Where the Canadian government has been successful so far in managing the “conflict of taste” that has led to Quebec’s historic discomfort in the Canadian federation, because the federal government possesses the tools to address that challenge, it does not have the same tools to manage the “conflict of claim” that is creating increased dissatisfaction with Confederation in the West. The result is that Canada is a less stable federation than many observers realize. Interestingly, the future of its unity depends largely on whether the West is able to establish a lasting political alliance with Ontario even though that would mean Quebec no longer being critical for national coalitions. Conflicts of taste revolve around differences in political preferences between regions within a federation. While Quebec is animated by its different culture, history and language than the rest of Canada, which has created a conflict of taste, mechanisms have been put in place to help mitigate the friction, including: Provincial powers over key cultural institutions such as education and health, special fiscal and immigration arrangements for Quebec, guaranteed bilingualism in federal institutions and tax-collection powers unique to Quebec. Quebec’s ability to wield federal power through a Central Canadian alliance with Ontario has also helped partially alleviate the province’s discomfort within Confederation.

  • Reconnaissance Study Of
    (a) Large Reservoir and Small Pump Capacity In most drainage areas, a pumping station is characterized by storage of flood in a large reservoir placed at the pumping station so as to minimize pump capacity, thus initial cost and operation cost. Table 3.18 includes data of pump capacity and area of reservoir attached. However, as explained in the 1973 Master Plan Study Report, if pumps are small, the reservoir may not yet empty before the next rainstorm. (b) Complicated Network of Drainage System The pump drainage areas in the DKI Jakarta have complicated network of drains with a lot of gates. Flood water is so controlled by gates to distribute optimum discharge to downstream in consideration of flow capacity of main drain, pump capacity as well as down stream water level including Sea Level. (c) Planning without Consideration of Secondary and Tertiary Drains The other characteristics of drainage system in the DKI Jakarta is that existing pump capacity and starting water level of a reservoir of a pump drainage area are so determined that highest water level or the Design Flood Level along the main drain is lower than the existing bank elevation for one day flood with 25-year return period, assuming that most of rainfall can be drained to the main drain. However, there are a lot of flood prone areas in pump drainage areas. One cause of inundation in flood prone areas may be improper installation/maintenance of secondary/tertiary drains, though gravity drain can be attained. Also high Design Flood Level of main drain may be other causes why rainwater is difficult to be drained.
