Arlington, Virginia under contract AID/SOD/PDC-C..2112 The profile of Indonesia is part of a series designed to provide baseline country data in support of the planning and relief operations of the Office of U.S. Foreign Disaster Assistance (OFDA). Content, scope, and sources have evolved over the course of the last several years; the relatively narrnw focus is intentional. To avoid redundancy, some topics one might expect to find in a "country profile" are not covered here. We hope that the information provided will also be useful to others in the disaster assistance and development communities. Every effort is made to obtain current, reliable data; unfortunately it is not possible to issue updates as fast as changes would warrant. A cautionary note, therefore, tD the reader: statistics are indicators at best, and if names and numbers matter, the bibliography will point to a current source.

  • City Architecture As the Production of Urban Culture: Semiotics Review for Cultural Studies
    HUMANIORA VOLUME 30 Number 3 October 2018 Page 248–262 City Architecture as the Production of Urban Culture: Semiotics Review for Cultural Studies Daniel Susilo; Mega Primatama Universitas dr. Soetomo, Indonesia; University College London, United Kingdom Corresponding Author: [email protected] ABSTRACT This article aims to describe the correlation between city’s architecture as urban culture and cultural studies, specifically in semiotics. This article starts with Chris Barker’s statement about city and urban as text in his phenomenal book, Cultural Studies, Theory and Practice. The city as a complex subject has been transformed into the representation of urban culture. In the post-modernism view, urban culture as cultural space and cultural studies’ sites have significantly pointed to became communications discourse and also part of the identity of Semiology. This article uses semiotics of Saussure for the research methods. Surabaya and Jakarta have been chosen for the objects of this article. The result of this article is describing the significant view of architecture science helps the semiotics in cultural studies. In another way, city’s architecture becomes the strong identity of urban culture in Jakarta and Surabaya. Architecture approaches the cultural studies to view urban culture, especially in symbol and identity in the post-modernism era. Keywords: city’s architecture; urban culture; semiotics; cultural studies INTRODUCTION Giddens (1993) in Lubis (2014:4) stated the society urbanization, a city that used to be not that big become is like a building who need reconstruction every day so large that has to prop up the need of its growing and human-created their reconstruction.

June, 2000 Dieng Plateau Java Die ng Kelud Ijen The Dieng Volcanic Complex in Central Java is situated on a highland plateau at about 2000 m above sea level, approximately 25 km north of the city of Wonosobo. It belongs to a series of Quaternary volcanoes, which includes the historically active Sumbing and Sundoro volcanoes. The plateau is a rich agricultural area for potatoes, cabbages, tomatoes and other vegetables. There are numerous surface manifestations of hydrothermal activity, including lakes, fumaroles/solfatara and hotsprings. The area is also known for the development of geothermal resources and lethal outbursts of gas. Scattered temples are the witnesses of the ancient Hindu culture that once reigned. Geological setting The 14 km long and 6 km wide Dieng Plateau has a general E-W trend due to the shift of eruptive centers with the youngest activity being in the east. It is underlain by Tertiary marls, limestones, tuffaceous sandstones and volcanics. The Dieng Complex itself consists of late Quaternary to Recent volcanic cones and explosion craters, formed at the intersection of two major fault zones trending E-W and NW-SE.

  • Mount Kelud Urgent Volcanic Disaster Mitigation Project 1. Project Profile
    Indonesia Mount Kelud Urgent Volcanic Disaster Mitigation Project Report Date: March 2001 Field Survey: September 2000 1. Project Profile and Japan’s ODA Loan Location Map of Project Area Debris Blocking Facilities within the Project Area (1) Background The project area is located at the base of the Kelud Volcano in Indonesia’s East Java Province, roughly 90km southwest of the provincial capital of Surabaya. This region is in the basin of the Brantas River stretching over the three East Java districts of Kediri, Blitar and Tulungagung. Eruptions from this volcano can cause direct damage to an area of 1,736km2 covering these three districts along the south and west slopes of the volcano. The population for this region stood at 3,194,000 at the end of 1988 (before implementing this project) with a population density of 1,840 people/ km2. All of the rivers on the western and southern slopes of this volcano flow into the Brantas River. Therefore, whenever there is an eruption, heavy amounts of earth and sand flow into this river, raising the level of the riverbed and causing flooding in the middle reaches of the Brantas River. Following the major eruption in 1966, the Kelud Volcano Erosion Control Works Office was established and the Master Plan to prevent volcanic disaster was prepared in 1969. In February 1990 Kelud Volcano erupted again after a dormancy of 24 years and this caused a serious danger of secondary volcanic mudflows resulting from the large amounts of volcanic ash and lava. This is not only an economic problem involving the possible loss of social assets, but also threatens the lives of the local residents.

  • Remotely Assessing Tephra Fall Building Damage and Vulnerability: Kelud Volcano, Indonesia George T
    Williams et al. Journal of Applied Volcanology (2020) 9:10 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13617-020-00100-5 RESEARCH Open Access Remotely assessing tephra fall building damage and vulnerability: Kelud Volcano, Indonesia George T. Williams1,2* , Susanna F. Jenkins1,2, Sébastien Biass1, Haryo Edi Wibowo3,4 and Agung Harijoko3,4 Abstract Tephra from large explosive eruptions can cause damage to buildings over wide geographical areas, creating a variety of issues for post-eruption recovery. This means that evaluating the extent and nature of likely building damage from future eruptions is an important aspect of volcanic risk assessment. However, our ability to make accurate assessments is currently limited by poor characterisation of how buildings perform under varying tephra loads. This study presents a method to remotely assess building damage to increase the quantity of data available for developing new tephra fall building vulnerability models. Given the large number of damaged buildings and the high potential for loss in future eruptions, we use the Kelud 2014 eruption as a case study. A total of 1154 buildings affected by falls 1–10 cm thick were assessed, with 790 showing signs that they sustained damage in the time between pre- and post-eruption satellite image acquisitions. Only 27 of the buildings surveyed appear to have experienced severe roof or building collapse. Damage was more commonly characterised by collapse of roof overhangs and verandas or damage that required roof cladding replacement. To estimate tephra loads received by each building we used Tephra2 inversion and interpolation of hand-contoured isopachs on the same set of deposit measurements.

The Life Histories of Three Indonesian Women Migrant Workers by NURCHAYATI NURCHAYATI has been approved for the Center for International Studies by Haley Duschinski Assistant Professor of Anthropology Drew O. McDaniel Director, Southeast Asian Studies Daniel Weiner Executive Director, Center for International Studies 3 ABSTRACT NURCHAYATI NURCHAYATI, M.A., November 2010, Southeast Asian Studies Foreign Exchange Heroes or Family Builders? The Life Histories of Three Indonesian Women Migrant Workers (178 pp.) Director of Thesis: Haley Duschinski This study explores the interaction between agency and society. It examines the social processes that have brought about transnational labor migration. It also analyzes the life histories of three female ex-migrants from East Java. Petro dollars have enabled some Middle Eastern countries to undertake modernization, which expanded their middle classes and changed their lifestyles. Meanwhile, Indonesia’s economic growth has slowed down since the end of the oil boom and its labor market did not offer enough job opportunities. Viewing a labor shortage in the Middle East as a chance to solve its economic problems, the government of Indonesia (GOI) encouraged citizens to work overseas but failed to provide them with adequate protection. When many of them suffer from exploitation and abuse, the GOI rationalizes the problems by using the discourse of “foreign exchange heroes.” The study shows that nation-building is an ambivalent project involving the internal struggle over power, resources, and identity.

Seismic tomography is one geophysical tool that is adaptable to understanding the mechanism process related to tectonic activity, seismicity, and volcanism. We collected a series of waveforms from 1,519 events in the period January 2009 to September 2017 and re-picked 11,192 phases for P- and S-waves at 34 stations of the BMKG network. We determined the 3-D P- and S-wave velocity structure beneath this high-risk region down to a depth of 200 km. In this study, we compare the tomographic images and relocated seismicity in order to represent the subducted slab geometry and the features in the seismic zones, i.e. the 2006 Yogyakarta earthquake zone (Opak fault), south of the mainland, and the 1994 Banyuwangi earthquake zone.

Received 8/3/85, in revised form 4/3/86, accepted 10/3/86, ABSTRACT A pluridisciplinary study was carried out in the south-eastern part of Kalimantan (Indonesia) in a deltaic area close to Banjarmasin town. Upstream from Banjarmasin, Barito river divides into two branches, one of which meets the Kapuas river slightly further to the west, to form the Kapuas Murung estuary. This programme is designed to increase knowledge about the physical and sedimentolo­ gical processes, physical and chemical properties of the soils, and hydrological and chemical parameters of the Barito estuary. Barito estuary was chosen for two main reasons. First, it constitutes an important waterway for the region, on which Banjarmasin harbour is located; second, the management of the sparsely occupied coastal areas is becoming a priority. The transmigration area of Tabunganen, close to the coast (with sorne saline intrusion problems) is significant in this connection.

  • The Eruption of Mount Kelud and It's Impacts in Blitar 1919-1922
    The Eruption of Mount Kelud and It’s Impacts in Blitar 1919-1922 Ulin Nihayatul,* Agustinus Supriyono, Haryono Rinardi Master Program of History, Faculty of Humanities, Diponegoro University *Corresponding Author: [email protected] Abstract This study is meant to deal with the aftermaths of Mount Kelud Eruption from 1919 to 1922 in the region of Blitar, which is focused on the effects of Mount Kelud eruption on the economy and its impacts for the three years Received: following the eruption. The aftermaths of Mount Kelud eruption of 1919 2 April 2017 had caused many of the residents lose their livelihood, families and damages to the plantations in the region of Blitar. The damages affecting Accepted: 18 May 2017 the plantations made the local economy in the region of Blitar drop. This economic slump certainly impeded the development progress in the Gemeente of Blitar, a Gemeente had been formed in the region of Blitar shortly before that. The extensive environmental devastation, inside the gemeente and the outer parts of the regency’s regions forced the regional government of Blitar Regency to allocate aids funds to handle the casualties, make the repairs and constructions of the facilities in the region of Blitar. Keywords: Eruption; Mount Kelud; Blitar. Introduction The great number of population with uneven distributions, disorderly spatial detail, the issues of deviating usage of natural resources, diverse tribes and tribal groups, religions, traditions, cultures, and the impacts of globalization and other complex social problems have existed in the country. This condition has consequently made Indonesian territories to become areas of potential disasters, both natural and man- made calamities.

  • Is There Any Change from Magma Mixing in Kelud Characteristics?
    International Journal of Scientific and Technical Research in Engineering (IJSTRE) www.ijstre.com Volume 2 Issue 11 ǁ November 2017. Is There any Change from Magma Mixing in Kelud Characteristics? Achmad Djumarma Wirakusumah1 and Hanik Humaida2 1 (Institue of Energy and Mineral Akamigas, Mininstry of Energy and Mineral Resources of Indonesia) 2 (Geological Agency, Mininstry of Energy and Mineral Resources of Indonesia) [email protected] ABSTRACT : Kelud volcano is located in East Java Province, Indonesia. According to Geochemical study of Kelud Volcano, it could be divided into 3 periods which are Kelud I (older than 100 ky BP), Kelud II (40 – 100 ky BP), and Kelud III (younger than 40 ky BP). A specific petrogenesis of Kelud are dominatad by magma mixing and fractional crystalization. New petrological data from Kelud volcano was taken through products of the eruption in 1990 (Vulkanian type), 2007 (Lava plug forming) and 2014 (Plinian type). Petrographic study on these rocks showed that reverse and oscilatory zoning on plagioclases, Shieve-like and corroded textures on plagioclases and pyroxenes are common. However, normal zoning textures were also found on plagioclases and pyroxenes. Whole rock study on these rocks showed all rocks were classified into Basalt to Andesite in composition with calc-alkaline group. The study indicated that their magma origin derrived from slab with fractional crystallization during in the magma reservoir, and magma mixing processes are dominant expecially in magma pockets. Concequently, the magma origin and petrogenesis of Kelud magma after the 1966 eruption are still the same as those of old magma of Kelud. KEYWORDS : Fractional crystalization, magma mixing, petrogenesis.
