Domestic flights It is worth being aware that flights within Indonesia often do not follow their schedules leading to delays on the ground. In a worst case scenario amendments to the airline and route you are travelling will be necessary. Our representatives will be there to assist you if you encounter any of these problems as they are best placed to help you at the time. For domestic flights in Indonesia, Audley will always endeavour to use EU approved airlines - Garuda Airlines, Mandala Airlines, Airfast and Ekspres Transportasi Antarbenua (operating as PremiAir), Metro Batavia and Indonesia Air Asia - where appropriate as all other airlines in the country are subject to an EU operating ban. Many of the non EU approved airlines have in fact passed the strict safety requirements of neighbouring countries they fly to including Singapore, Australia and Japan and the operating ban only prevents them from flying in to EU airspace, of which none of these airlines have ever had routes. On this tour you will fly from Java to Kalimantan on a non EU approved airline as none of the airlines listed above fly this route. We recommend you read current FCO advice and ensure you are comfortable with this.

  • Birds of Tanjung Puting National Park, Kalimantan Tengah a Prelimanary List
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by KUKILA BIRDS OF TANJUNG PUTING NATIONAL PARK, KALIMANTAN TENGAH A PRELIMANARY LIST by Bohap bin Jalan and Birute M.F. Galdikas (Received 3 October 1986) INTRODUCTION Tanjung Puting National Park is located on the south coast of Kalimantan (Borneo) in the province of Kalimantan Tengah, between 2"35'S and 3° 20'S and 111° 50' and 112° 15'E. Tanjung Puling was first established as a game reserve in two parts during 1936 and 1937 by the Dutch colonial government and the Sultan of Kotawaringin. Consisting of 305,000 ha the reserve was established primarily for the protection of orang utans Pongo pygmaeus, proboscis monkeys Nasalls larvatus and rhinoceros Dicerorhinus sumatrensis with the latter, however, becoming extinct in the 1940's due to severe hunting pressure for its horns. Orang utans and proboscis monkeys still remain plentiful. In 1982 the status of Tanjung puting was upgraded to National park. The park occupies most of the swampy, alluvial peninsula between Kumai Bay and the Seruyan River. The park is very flat with the highest point no more than 30 m above mean sea level. The soils are generally very poor, heavily leached, poorly developed and very acidic. The Park is drained by a number of small black water rivers radiating from its northern and eastern parts. Ground water forms an important part of all habitats and large areas of the Park are flooded for much of the year. VEGETATION a) Lowland Dipterocarp Forest While the vegetation of Tanjung puling is quite varied, approximately 40t of the Park is covered by dryland forest which approximates Lowland Dipterocarp Forest, although it differs in composition from the better known Dipterocarp Forests elsewhere in Borneo; it is forest with a "tropical heath" appearance.

    Paper Number: 35 Geohazards risk assessment for disaster management of Mount Merapi and surrounding area, Yogyakarta Special Region, Indonesia. Ayu Narwastu Ciptahening1 & Noppadol Phienwej2 1 Universitas Pembangunan Nasional (UPN) “Veteran” Yogyakarta, Indonesia, E-mail [email protected] 2 Asian Institute of Technology, Thailand ___________________________________________________________________________ It is well-known that there exists a very active volcano situated in Central Java and Yogyakarta Special Region, Indonesia, called Mount Merapi. It is classified into one of the most active volcanoes, even on the world. It mostly erupts in every 4 years. Deposits produced by its activity in Sleman Regency Yogyakarta Special Region of where the study located, can be divided into four rock units, namely Ancient Merapi, Middle Merapi, Recent Merapi, and Modern Merapi. In the 10th to 11th century Mount Merapi had been responsible to the decline of Hindu Mataram Kingdom, Central Java, by its eruptions. It was verified by the discovery of many ancient temples in Yogyakarta and surrounding areas, such as Temple Sambisari, Temple Kadisoka, and Temple Kedulan which were buried by volcanic deposits of Mount Merapi [1]. The eruption of Mount Merapi, in the year 2010 was recognized as the biggest eruption during recent decades and claimed about 300 lives and very large treasures, after the eruption. The type of eruption was changed from Merapi type in the activity period of 2006 and before to become the combination of Vulcanian type and Pelean type [2]. Due to the activities of the volcano that is very intensive, it can be underlined that the threats of geohazard faced by people living in the surrounding area of Yogyakarta is about the impact of volcanic eruptions [3].

  • Resident's Communication Behavior in Three Volcano Disaster Prone
    International Journal of Humanities and Social Science Vol. 4, No. 6; April 2014 Resident’s Communication Behavior in Three Volcano Disaster Prone Areas with Different Disaster Exposure Edi Puspito Sumardjo Titik Sumarti Pudji Muljono The Department of Community Development and Communication Sciences Post Graduate Programme Bogor Agriculral University Abstract Volcanic disaster gives various impacts on the environment depending on its exposure to the disaster. In addition to requiring different management, environmental changes due to volcanic disasters will form different behaviors. An effective communication between residents in disaster-prone areas with stakeholders is required to ease the risks as volcanic disasters. The objective of this research is to analyze resident’s communication behavior in volcanic disaster prone areas to for disaster preparedness in areas with different disaster exposure types. This research applied quantitative method. The conclusions of this study are amongst others the residents in the area exposed to the cold lava flood have better skill level on media usage than those of resident’s in other areas, and the residents have a good level of trust in media intervention, mainly for new programs. Keywords: disasters, volcanoes, communication behavior, readiness, risk Introduction Indonesia, which is geographically located in the ”Pacific Ring of Fire”, has more than 83 active volcanoes, and therefore potentially has frequent earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. One of the volcanic eruptionswas of Mount Merapi in 2010 causing 242 death tolls in the Special Region of Yogyakarta and the other 97 fatalities in Central Java Province. The disaster impacts werenot only on the loss of lives but also the loss of assets and other productive resources of individuals and communities, causing economic vulnerability and poverty (Bappenas, BNPB 2011).
