Colonial Jakarta-Batavia, Kali Besar Explanation These tours asks a lot of your historical empathy! However, try to discover remnants of the colonial history of Indonesia, discover some remains of the Dutch Period. This tour will guide you through Jakarta Kota, Old Batavia. I am going to inform you about some historical and architectural aspects of a canalized part of River Ciliwung in Jakarta Kota, called Kali Krukut. The quays left and right from Kali Krukut are called Kali Besar. So, Kali Besar Barat/West and Kali Besar Timur/East are the names of the roads along the canal Kali Krukut. Kali Besar means in Dutch “Groote Rivier” (“Important River” in English). The name Kali Besar was already quite common for a long time during the Dutch Period. I advise you to have a look at the pictures this tour first and we advise you also to have a look at our Tour “Sunda Kelapa and vicinity” - in Touring Jakarta, Colonial Style (1), on this site - to get an impression about the arrival of the Dutch, about the year of 1600, and about the consequences of that arrival. This Tour and the following one will bring you to these highlights: the secrets of Jalan Bank (Bank Road), architecture along Kali Besar Barat/West, the secrets of Jembatan Kota Intan, formerly called Chicken Market Drawbridge, and architecture along Kali Besar Timur/East. The complete Tour can be done within three hours. .

Overseas Security Advisory Council Jakarta Country Council Amcham Security Committee, Report on Events in March 2014
OVERSEAS SECURITY ADVISORY COUNCIL JAKARTA COUNTRY COUNCIL AMCHAM SECURITY COMMITTEE, REPORT ON EVENTS IN MARCH 2014 OSAC Jakarta Country Council / AmCham Indonesia Security Committee: Chair: Scott Hanna Vice-Chairs: Colin Good Chris McCann U.S. Embassy Regional Security Officer: James J. Murphy Summary of Security-Related Issues throughout Indonesia The following selected information was compiled from submissions from IPJ (Indonusa Primatama Jaya), and also Hill & Associates, to whom we are deeply grateful. This report contains information on a broad spectrum of security concerns and incidents which have occurred in Indonesia during the reporting period. Incidents are listed as they happened and dates are added if reported, other- wise the reader is to assume the event took place during the month in question. Readers are ad- vised that while there are security risks that companies and individuals need to be aware of, avoid or address, Indonesia is a country of over 230 million people living on 17,500 islands that stretch over 4,800 kms. The vast majority of foreign companies that operate in Indonesia, and expatriates who reside in or visit the country, do so without incident providing sensible security precautions are taken. ______________________________________________________________________ OVERVIEW Counter terrorist police arrested several terrorist suspects in Poso, Central Sulawesi where they seized firearms, ammunition and a bomb. A firefight lasting more than two hours between police and well armed civilians also took place in the same area. Two members of the East Mujahideen attempted to use a parcel courier service to send two bombs to South Sulawesi with the intention that they would detonate in Makassar and other areas of South Sulawesi.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 2 ABSTRACT This study examines the kapitan Cina institution in Batavia, its place in the Dutch East Indies administration, and the role played by the Chinese officers in their own community. The Chinese inhabitants of Batavia and the Dutch practice of segregation are considered in chapter 1, devoted to describing the plurality of Batavia’s population under the VOC. Chapter 2 traces the original concept of the kapitan system, dating back to the pre-colonial indigenous kingdoms of the archipelago. It indicates that the kapitan institution was an indigenous arrangement, later adopted by western colonists to rule the non-indigenous inhabitants of the colony. The main focus of this study is in the last five chapters. Chapter 3 examines the establishment of the kapitan Cina, or Chinese officers, its nature, structure and relationships with the local authority of Batavia.

Konservasi Kawasan Kali Besar Kota Tua Jakarta
TUGAS KONSERVASI ARSITEKTUR Ferry Rinaldy 22312913 | 4TB02 BAB I PENDAHULUAN Latar Belakang Kota Tua Jakarta, juga dikenal dengan sebutan Batavia Lama (Oud Batavia), adalah sebuah wilayah kecil diJakarta, Indonesia. Wilayah khusus ini memiliki luas 1,3 kilometer persegi melintasi Jakarta Utara dan Jakarta Barat(Pinangsia, Taman Sari dan Roa Malaka). Dijuluki "Permata Asia" dan "Ratu dari Timur" pada abad ke-16 oleh pelayar Eropa, Jakarta Lama dianggap sebagai pusat perdagangan untuk benua Asia karena lokasinya yang strategis dan sumber daya melimpah. Gambar 1.1 Kota Tua Jakarta (Sumber : http://anekatempatwisata.com) Kota Tua memiliki beberapa zona, salah satunya yaitu zona Kali Besar Barat dan Kali Besar Barat. Kedua zona ini dipisahkan oleh sungai besar yang bernama Kali Besar, Oleh karena itu kawasan tersebut dinamai Kali Besar. Pada zaman dulu Kali Besar sekitar tahun 1630-an Kali Besar merupakan urat nadi lalu lintas kapal bongkar muat barang yang dibawa dari pelabuhan Sunda Kelapa. Karenanya keramaian pasar tak luput menjadi pemandangan di sekitar kiri kanan Kali Besar. Gambar 1.2 Kali Besar Zaman Dulu (Sumber : http://luk.staff.ugm.ac.id) Kali Besar kini pada tahun 2016 memiliki kondisi yang sangat mengkhawatirkan, bila dilihat Kali Besar kini memiliki volume air yang sangat rendah dan banyak terdapatnya sampah pada kali tersebut. Bila ditinjau dari kawasannya yaitu Kali Besar Barat dan Timur pada saat ini seperti dua kawasan yang terpisah dan mati. Kondisi tersebut memberikan efek pemandangan dan bau yang tidak baik terhadap lingkungan disekitarnya. Kondisi air Kali Besar pada saat ini memiliki warna hitam dan sangat dangkal seperti tidak ada gerakan air yang mengalir.
