Whether it is the capital Jakarta or the resort islands of Bintan, one can feel the winds of change in the air in Indonesia today. There is an all-pervading dynamism about the country. Rapid changes to the socio-cultural milieu, an upturn in the country’s economic landscape, integration of the latest technology - all point to an emerging “new Indonesia”. With over 17,500 islands, Indonesia is the largest archipelago in the world. At the crossroads of the Indian and the Pacific oceans and bridging the continents of Asia and Australia, Indonesia is a huge market, located ideally for trade and investment. A large population is seen as potential workforce, and its abundant resources are being leveraged to attract investors to the country. We bring you an entrepreneur’s perspective on various opportunities that can be tapped. With a unique geography and history, it’s only natural that tourism is among the top attractions. Think of Indonesia and one immediately recalls the beaches and the rich cultural life in Bali, the tropical rain forests with its rare fauna and flora. From Aceh to Papua, one is spoilt for choice in the predominantly mountainous country. Over 300 ethnic groups have their own distinct language, art, traditions and customs. For fast-paced Singaporeans, Indonesia offers innumerable options to de-stress. This edition looks at some of the latest options in nearby Bintan and West Sumatra. Also check out some of the new locations in Indonesia for meetings, incentives and conferences. Perhaps the greatest attraction about today’s Indonesia is “Bhinneka Tunggal Ika” or “Unity in Diversity”. People may see themselves first by their ethnic and cultural grouping. But the national motto binds them together with the usage of the national language, Bahasa Indonesia. The state philosophy of Pancasila, also stresses the doctrine of unity and universal justice for all Indonesians. It was a great pleasure putting together this National Day special. We hope you enjoy reading it. We wish all Indonesians and their friends a happy National Day.

Determining the bathymetry of lakes is important to assess the potential and the vulnerability of this valuable resource. The dilution and circulation of nutrients or pollutants is largely dependant on the volume of water and the incoming and outgoing fluxes, while the degree and frequency of mixing depends on the water depth. The bathymetry of lakes is also important to understand the spatial distribution of sediments, which in turn are valuable archives of natural hazards and environmental change.

  • Phytoplankton and the Correlation to Primary Productivity, Chlorophyll-A
    Phytoplankton and the correlation to primary productivity, chlorophyll-a, and nutrients in Lake Maninjau, West Sumatra, Indonesia 1Jabang Nurdin, 1Desra Irawan, 2Hafrijal Syandri, 1Nofrita, 1Rizaldi 1 Department of Biology, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, Andalas University, West Sumatra, Indonesia; 2 Faculty of Fisheries, Bung Hatta University, West Sumatra, Indonesia. Corresponding author: J. Nurdin, [email protected] Abstract. Intensive freshwater fish farming using floating-net-cages in Lake Maninjau has been conducted since 1992. Fish farming intensification can reduce water quality and affect aquatic biotic communities. This research aims to study the impact of floating-net-cages activities on the phytoplankton communities, and its correlation to primary productivity, chlorophyll-a, and water quality of Lake Maninjau. Five representative sampling sites from Lake Maninjau were chosen purposively. Primary productivity, chlorophyll-a, and water quality were analyzed using the oxygen method, chlorophyll extract from autotrophic organisms and the tropical index respectively, then all parameters were analyzed using principal component analysis (PCA) to present the pattern. Water quality parameters such as temperature, pH, total suspended solids (TSS), total dissolved solids (TDS), light intensity, dissolved oxygen (DO), biological oxygen demand (BOD), chemical oxygen demand (COD), total P, and total N were also measured. From the results, we found 17 species of phytoplankton from 5 classes. Phytoplankton abundance ranged from 1980 to 3540 individual L-1, with the lowest abundance found in Sigiran Site (incubation zone) and the highest in Kubu Baru Site (surface waters). The biomass estimation value of chlorophyll-a ranged from 0.415 to 0.104 mg C m-3, with the highest value found on the surface water in Sigiran Site and the lowest in incubation zone in Tanjung Sani Site.

  • Traditional Transport Tools As Supporters of the Regional
    SHS Web of Conferences 86, 01048 (2020) https://doi.org/10.1051/shsconf/20208601048 ICORE 2019 Traditional Transport Tools as Supporters of the Regional Economy through Tourism and Culture Activities E R Gultom1 1Law Faculty, Trisakti Jakarta university Abstract. Some regions in Indonesia such as West Sumatra, Yogyakarta, Jakarta and other regions, often found traditional Bendi transportation which is used to transport people or goods from one place to the agreed destination. Apart from functioning as a public transportation tool, Bendi also has an important role in tourism, which is used around to transport tourists both from within and outside the country. The activity carried out by Bendi can increase the income of the local people who use Bendi as a regional tourism promotion tool. How is the existence of a Traditional Transport Tool in the midst of modern transportation in Indonesia?; How is this traditional Bendi transport regulated in Indonesia's national regulations? and What is the support of traditional Bendi transportation for regional economic development where its position is as a means of transportation? Is the subject matter in writing this paper. The research method used is normative, using secondary data and primary data as supporters, through interviews with some observers of traditional transport equipment. Then it will be analyzed descriptively. The conclusion obtained is that in a certain area, there are provisions for regional regulations that regulate the existence of these Bendi traditional transportation equipment, such as in the Yogyakarta area. Traditional Bendi transportation support as a supporter of the regional economy through tourism activities is very large, such as those found in the Yogyakarta area, where Bendi is always there to surround tourist areas that deliver domestic and foreign tourists in visiting tourist areas, as well as in West Sumatra , Padang, Bendi still exists even though it is rare, but it is still used as a tourism and cultural transport tool.

The water quality data for supporting lake management in Indonesia are very limited due to financial constraints. To address this issue, satellite data are often used to retrieve water quality data. Here, we developed an empirical model for estimating the Secchi disk depth (SD) from Landsat TM/ETM+ data by using data collected from nine Indonesian lakes/reservoirs (SD values 0.5–18.6 m). We made two efforts to improve the robustness of the developed model. First, we carried out an image preprocessing series of steps (i.e., removing contaminated water pixels, filtering images, and mitigating atmospheric effects) before the Landsat data were used.
