    Co-funded by the European Union URBAN ANALYSIS REPORT 2020 BANDAR LAMPUNG Hari Priyadi Hermon David Setyorogo Celine Anastasya 01 Irfan Gunawan I This publication was produced with the financial support of the European Union Its contents are the sole responsibility of and do not necessarily reflect the views of the European Union Urban Analysis Report 2020 FOREWORD Addressing the threat of climate change remains a top priority for the European Union (EU). The European Green Deal is a response to these challenges; it aims to transform the EU into a fair and prosperous society, with a modern, resource-efficient and competitive economy with zero net emissions of greenhouse gases by 2050. Through the Climate Resilient and Inclusive Cities (CRIC) project, the EU and Indonesia are working together to help cities build a resilient and inclusive future. We do so by building partnerships between governments, businesses, local communities and research institutes in Europe, South Asia and Southeast Asia. Clearly, there are hurdles along the way, especially in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic. However, our response to this pandemic needs to be a sustainable one, addressing the challenges of climate change as well as economic recovery. Just last month, in Sukabumi City of West Java Province, a flash flood cost lives and forced hundreds of citizens to leave their houses. According to the Indonesian National Disaster Management Agency, Indonesia is about to experience more hydrometeorological disasters due to climate change. The CRIC Urban Analysis Report is a timely reminder that cities cannot delay their sustainable transition. This Urban Analysis Report for ten Indonesian pilot cities under the CRIC project offers a comprehensive overview of city characteristics, policy gaps and climate-related policies in the cities of Pangkalpinang, Pekanbaru, Bandar Lampung, Cirebon, Banjarmasin, Samarinda, Mataram, Kupang, Gorontalo and Ternate.

  • Determination of Risk Areas in the Cimahi City (Drainage Sector) Based on City Sanitation Strategy Guidelines
    Journal of the Civil Engineering Forum, September 2020, 6(3): 215-224 DOI 10.22146/jcef.53052 Available Online at http: https://jurnal.ugm.ac.id/jcef/issue/archive Determination of Risk Areas in the Cimahi City (Drainage Sector) Based on City Sanitation Strategy Guidelines Iwan Juwana*, Elvira Rizqita Utami Department of Environmental Engineering, Institut Teknologi Nasional (ITENAS) Bandung, INDONESIA jL. PHH Mustafa 23 Bandung 40123, West Java *Corresponding authors: [email protected] SUBMITTED 31 December 2019 REVISED 21 February 2020 ACCEPTED 30 April 2020 ABSTRACT Cimahi is one of the cities which participated in the Accelerated Habitat Sanitation Development Program in 2011 due to its poor sanitation conditions. The city experienced high flooding in 2018 as observed in the 36.4 hectares or approximately 0.76% of the total area affected even though its drainage system was discovered to be covering 89.87% in 2015. There are also several reports of displacement of residents and significant financial loss in the city due to flooding in the past decade and this means urgent attention needs to be provided to improve the condition of the city. Therefore, this study was conducted to calculate the level of risk from the drainage sector in each urban village of Cimahi City. This involves using scores ranging from 1 – 4, with a score of 1 indicating very low risk while 4 represents very high risk based on exposure factors such as percentage of inundation area, sanitation risk index (IRS) score, and the opinions of local government as well as impact factors such as population, population density, poverty rate, and urban/rural function.

  • Consideration of Tourism Riverfront Development Elements for Pekanbaru City Transformation
    Journal of Regional and City Planning vol. 28, no. 2, pp. 140-150, August 2017 DOI: 10.5614/jrcp.2017.28.2.5 Consideration of Tourism Riverfront Development Elements for Pekanbaru City Transformation 1 2 Fithria Khairina Damanik0F and Wiwik Dwi Pratiwi1F [Received: 6 September 2016; accepted in final version: 21 June 2017] Abstract. Pekanbaru is the capital of Riau which is well known as a business city with a strategic location between the trade routes of Sumatera. The city obviously has Siak River as its tourism potential. However, the river, which is one of the deepest and longest rivers in Indonesia, lately is no longer be the face of the city and is not managed optimally. This study can support the reviving of the river through riverfront tourism development. This study will discuss the consideration of development elements of riverfront tourism for Siak River, focusing on the urban villages of Kampung Bandar and Kampung Dalam, Senapelan Sub-district as the study location. The elements consist of function, image, theme, geographic factor, authenticity, accessibility, community perception and management which is based on a modification of the theories of Toree (1989) and Wren (1983). This study uses a mixed method approach, using a quantitative approach for community and visitors perception about the location and a qualitative approach for the analysis of riverfront tourism development elements. The data is collected through questionnaires, field observation, and interviews with relevant stakeholders. Based on the analysis, the study location already has the elements to form a riverfront tourism area and has the potential to be developed as the riverfront icon of Pekanbaru, yet it still needs strategies for improvement to build a new destination.
