1 Sector H River Conditions, Flooding and Inundation 1 The Study on Comprehensive Water Management of Sector H Musi River Basin in the Republic of Indonesia Final Report SECTOR H RIVER CONDITIONS, FLOODING AND INUNDATION 1. RIVER CONDITIONS 1.1 Musi River Basin The Musi River Basin is in the southern part of Sumatra Island. The Musi River and the major tributaries originate in the Barisan Range. The Musi River originates at Gunung Dempo (3159m) and flows to the northward, joining the Kelingi, Semangus, Lakitan and Rawas rivers. At the confluence of the Rawas River, the Musi River changes its flow direction toward east and joins the Harileko and Lematang rivers before it reaches at Palembang City. Two big tributaries, the Ogan and Komering rivers, join from the right bank at the Palembang City. The Komering River is the largest tributary of the Musi River followed by the Ogan River. At the Komering junction, the flow of the Musi River changes to the north again and finally empties into Bangka Strait. The Musi River Basin is shown in Figure H1.1.1. Figure H1.1.1 Musi River Basin JICA CTI Engineering International Co., Ltd. H - 1 NIKKEN Consultants, Inc. Sector H The Study on Comprehensive Water Management of Final Report Musi River Basin in the Republic of Indonesia The Musi River has a total catchment area of 59,942 km2 at the river mouth with channel length of about 640 km. At the city of Palembang, it amounts to 34,836 km2 before joining the Komering and Ogan rivers. Catchment areas of the main Musi River and its major tributaries are summarized in the Table H1.1.1.

The Musi River has a long stretch of gentle bed slope in the lower reaches. The riverbed slope changes to steep in the upper reaches within relatively short transitional reaches. Flash floods with active erosion take place in the upper reaches of the main Musi River and tributaries, and they are absorbed in the lower gentle slope reaches. Principal features of these rivers are described below in brief. H - 4 JICA CTI Engineering International Co., Ltd. NIKKEN Consultants, Inc. The Study on Comprehensive Water Management of Sector H Musi River Basin in the Republic of Indonesia Final Report Musi River: The average bed slope of the Musi River is 1/40,000 from river mouth to Petaling (200 km from the mouth), 1/12,000 from Petaling to the Semangus River junction (391 km), 1/1,900 from the Semangus River junction to Tebing Tinggi (529 km), and 1/69 in the upstream reaches from Tebing Tinggi. Palembang City is located at about 85 km upstream from the river mouth. Komering River: The riverbed slope of the Komering River is around 1/4,700 in the reaches from the Musi River junction to Rasuan (137 km from the junction), 1/900 from Rasuan to Muara Dua (265 km), and 1/120 in the upper reaches. Ogan River: The riverbed slope of the Ogan River is around 1/8,300 in the reaches from the Musi River junction to Lubuk Rukem (170 km from the junction), 1/450 from Lubuk Rukem to Padang Bindu (255 km), and 1/45 in the upper reaches. Lematang River: The average riverbed slope of the Lematang River is around 1/6,200 in the reaches from the Musi River junction to Beruge (155 km from the junction), 1/480 from Beruge to Pulau Pinang (255 km), and 1/34 in the upper reaches. Harileko River: Watershed of the Harileko River is relatively low in elevation and the riverbed slope is also simple showing around 1/2,400. Rawas River: The average riverbed slope of the Rawas River is around 1/2,000 in the reaches from the Musi River junction to Surolangun Rawas (103 km from the junction), and 1/110 in the upper reaches. (2) Low-lying Lands Bed slope of the lower Musi River is very gentle, and the riverbed lower than 25 m, M.S.L. extends far about 400 km upstream from the river mouth. Major tributaries such as the Komering, Ogan, Lematang, Harileko and Rawas rivers flow into the low-lying Musi River. Stretches of the riverbed lower than 25 m, M.S.L. are summarized for these rivers in the Table H1.2.1. Table H1.2.1 Stretch of Riverbed Lower Than 25 m, M.S.L.

H - 5 NIKKEN Consultants, Inc. Sector H The Study on Comprehensive Water Management of Final Report Musi River Basin in the Republic of Indonesia Lands are flat and low-lying in these stretches and swampy lands are found everywhere in the low-lying lands. River courses in these stretches are meandering. 1.3 Existing Problems These low-lying lands extending along the main Musi River and its tributaries serve for retardation of flood and sediment runoffs. The existing low-lying lands have been serving significantly for alleviation of the flood and sediment damages in the down stream areas owing to its wide area. However, there still exist flood and sediment problems as described below in the Musi River Basin. (1) Musi River: Riverbed in the lower reaches has been silted up due to sediment deposition mainly caused by erosion in the upper catchments and geological anticline conditions. The rise of riverbed results not only in the reduction of discharge capacity and flooding, but also in the extension of back swamp areas. River banks have been eroded around the bends, and the bank erosion damages roads and houses during very short period. The critical riverbanks are protected by small-scale revetment works made of concrete walls and gabion mattresses. Some urban areas and food-crop lands are located in the low-lying land suffering from inundation due to over-bank flood flows. Large back swamp areas are formed in the downstream reaches of the river caused by long-lasting flood flow and sedimentation. The main problems of the upper Musi River Basin including the Lakitan, Semangus and the Kelingi rivers are inundation due to over-bank flooding and riverbank erosion. (2) Komering River In the middle reaches of the Komering River, elevation of the floodplain is about 10 m higher than that of the Ogan River probably due to difference of sediment yields. Therefore, greater part of the river flow of the Komering River diverges to the Ogan River through several irrigation channels such as Randu, Arisan, Jambu, Sigonang and Anyar which were constructed during Dutch colonial era. In the downstream reaches of the bifurcation of the Randu channel, the river is left almost dry in the dry season, and the riverbed slope becomes very mild and braided with numerous sand bars rising due to the sediment deposition. (3) Ogan River River channel of the Ogan River is meandering with high sinuosity and has a narrow and deep channel. Sediment discharge is mostly suspended load. H - 6 JICA CTI Engineering International Co., Ltd. NIKKEN Consultants, Inc. The Study on Comprehensive Water Management of Sector H Musi River Basin in the Republic of Indonesia Final Report The Ogan River receives diverged flow from the Komering in the middle reaches mainly through the Randu channel.

The research aimed to compare the typology of lebak swamps and potential rice production before and after the landfilling. Spatial data were obtained using Landsat imagery interpretation in 1987 and 2016. Attribute data was collected using questionnaires and sampling technique was done using disproportionate random sampling method. Typologies of lebak swamps consisted of lebak lebung, deep lebak, middle lebak, levee lebak, shallow lebak and dry land. After landfilling, dry land covers an area of 1,964 ha (72.73%), while the lebak swamp was decreased by approximately 736 ha (27.27%). Before landfilling, soil orders were found based on its dominance, namely Histosols, Entisols, Inceptisols and Gelisols. After landfilling, composition of soil order was dominated by Entisol, Inceptisol, Gelisols and Histosols. Before landfilling rice yields were produced about 3,240 tons of milled dry rice (MDR)/year, and rice production potency is now only about 506.25 tons of MDR/year. Keywords: Lebak swamp, Typology, Rice, Potency, South Sumatra INTRODUCTION is less than 30% and is distributed along Lebak swamp (freshwater swamp or back the Musi River and Ogan River.

  • Traces of Sino-Moslem Malay Descendants from Johor in Mento-Bangka
    International Seminar and Workshop on Urban Planning and Community Development IWUPCD 2017: 18th-22nd September 2017 ISBN: 978-602- 5428-06- 7| Pg. 117-128 Shared Urban Heritage: Traces of Sino-Moslem Malay Descendants from Johor in Mento-Bangka Kemas Ridwan Kurniawan1, Muhammad Naufal Fadhil2, Sutanrai Abdilah3 1, 2, 3Department of Architecture, Universitas Indonesia [email protected] ABSTRACT This paper aims to trace back the descendants of Liem Tau Kian (a former minister of Chinese Emperor who saught asylum in Johor State) who established the town of Mento in the early 18th century. Mento is the latest pre-European colonial city in Bangka before the island occupied by British and Dutch in the early 19th century. These descendants migrated to Bangka due to the marriage between Palembang Sultan with one of Lim Thau Kian’s grand daughter, and also due to the interest in tin mining exploration. The issue raising on this paper concerns about shared urban heritage as the evidence of traces of relationship of these descendants (representing Sino-Moslem Malay from Johor) with people from Bangka, Palembang, Bugis and also Arab. The method to response on the above issue is through observation on historical physical relics including old burial grounds and buildings scattered in old Mento. The findings tells multicultural paradigm of these shared heritage that were practiced through inter-ethnic marriages, transit, and migration around Malay Peninsula and the archipelago. © 2017 IWUPCD.

Wolters The Palembang Coast during the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Centuries I had always supposed that the metropolitan centers of Srivijaya, though probably dispersed according to their royal, social, commercial, or food-supplying functions, were in the neighborhood o f modern Palem­ bang city. I was among those influenced by the presence there of seventh century inscriptions, and I also assumed that the area where Bukit Seguntang stood had long ago possessed relig iou s prestige among Malays and contributed to the fame of the Palembang area. I did not believe that the capital of Srivijaya had always been in the Palembang area. Palembang enjoyed this status from the seventh century until the second half of the eleventh, when the Malay overlord*s center was moved to the Jambi area where it remained until turbulent events in the second half of the fourteenth century set in train the foundation of the Malay maritime empire of Malacca by a Palembang prince. After the shift in political hegemony from Palembang to Jambi, perhaps only officials in the Chinese court anachronistically continued to use the expression "San-fo-ch*iM ("Srivijaya") to identify the prominent polit­ ica l center on the southeastern coast of Sumatra.

  • Cacao Catalogue About
    CACAO CATALOGUE ABOUT Yayasan Bersama Lestarikan Nusantara (“Yayasan Belantara”) is an Indonesian grant-making institution formed in 2014 with the goal of delivering wide-ranging community and conservation results. It takes its name from the Indonesian word ‘Belantara’ which means wilderness or pristine forest. Belantara primary focus is to allocate grants to support restoration, protection, conservation of endangered species (specifically Sumatran Tiger, Sumatran Elephant, as well as Sumatran and Bornean Orangutan), Institutional development, and community development and empowerment initiatives in Conservation Area, Production Forest, Protection Forest, and Social Forestry on the ten specified grant distribution areas across five provinces on the islands of Sumatra and Kalimantan (Indonesian Borneo). Working with local communities, governments, the private sector and NGOs, Belantara relies on a multi-stakeholder approach to better inform decision-making when addressing resource management problems. As the Essential Ecosystem Areas (KEE) stretch across the grant distribution areas, a coordinated response between all stakeholders for the effective management and preservation of critical ecosystems is required. As an independent foundation, Belantara aims to work with all parties that shares its goals, coordinating and collaborating with partner projects within each of its ten specified grant distribution areas. Belantara aims to ensure that existing initiatives are aligned, minimizing the risk of projects overlapping while maximizing information and data sharing. Co-founder Asia Pulp and Paper significantly contributed in getting the Foundation off the ground, providing substantial financing. Additional financial resources are being raised from the public and private sectors, while investment de-risking initiatives will follow to achieve a more holistic scope of financing modalities.
