Governor Bey Machmudin began his work in 2025 by planting 25,000 tree seedlings in the Cikanyere area Tens of thousands of tree seedlings were planted on 59 hectares of land generally productive plants such as avocado "May the new year bring blessings and goodness to all of us Bey emphasized the importance of preserving nature in West Java The existence of trees with strong roots makes the absorption of rainwater more optimal so that landslides "We have forgotten a lot about nature opening up natural areas without considering environmental sustainability we must be more environmentally friendly," said Bey the environmental challenges in West Java are not easy In addition to deforestation due to land conversion to the media to work together to make the environmental rehabilitation program as implemented today a success Bey conveyed the message that tree planting should not only be a ceremonial event but should be continued by taking care of the newly planted trees so that they do not die "I also ask that the planting of these trees not only be crowded when planting them but also be looked after and cared for until they grow big later," said Bey Cianjur in collaboration with PT Adaro Indonesia as a donor of plant seedlings through the CSR program Tree planting will also continue to be carried out in other areas gradually Metrics details A destructive shallow earthquake with a magnitude of 5.6 struck Cianjur This earthquake resulted in 602 casualties and the collapse of over 67,504 residences we deployed 19 temporary seismic stations to monitor aftershocks for a period of 30 days We manually picked arrival times for 4499 P-waves and 3419 S-waves and determined locations for 514 events phase refinement through waveform cross correlation and relocation using double-difference methods we were able to determine 442 well-defined hypocenters of the aftershocks We identified two clusters of aftershocks: one in the NNW-SSE direction The seismogenic zone of these clusters ranges from a depth of 3 to 13 km Our interpretation suggests that these clusters may indicate a conjugate fault It is possible that the mainshock (Mw5.6) Cianjur earthquake on November 21 2022 occurred on the WSW-ENE direction with sinistral movement The upper left inset map shows the location of West Java (black rectangle) with respect to Southeast Asia The lowest left inset map shows the location of the study area (blue rectangle) with respect to West Java Our analysis focused on understanding the spatial distribution of relocated aftershocks to better comprehend their source mechanism since well-located aftershocks can be useful in determining fault plane orientations (A) 10 seismic stations recorded an event on 03 December 2022 using three-component seismogram Red and blue lines indicate the onset of P- and S- wave arrival times (B) Wadati diagram of 514 events and its corresponding VP/Vs ratio of 1.7205 (C) Histogram of Ts-Tp residual for 514 events We only analyzed the events with location errors of 5 km or less and which were detected by a minimum of three stations This resulted in 514 events for which moment magnitudes were calculated The length of the P-wave time window we used is half of the S and P travel-time differences and the S-wave time window is 1.5 times the length of the P-wave window This length is sufficient as the events have epicentral distances of less than 50 km and the time window must exclude later arriving phases The final model (red for Vs and blue for Vp) is selected based on the minimum RMS residual of 0.389887 s The A-A’ and B-B’ show vertical cross section along SW-NE and NW–SE direction approximately 20 km north of Cimandiri Rajamandala segment It should be noted that identifying any surface rupture is challenging due to either a layer of alluvial material or recently deposited volcanic material on top of the epicenter region the distribution of the aftershock sequence lies within the seismogenic zone located in the shallow crust during this event within the co-seismic phase both mechanisms must occur at the same time it is suggested that the mainshock (Mw5.6) Cianjur earthquake likely occurred on a conjugate fault structure with WSW-ENE direction and sinistral movement similar to the structural pattern of the CFZ dextral movement was observed in the second cluster with NNW-SSE direction During the temporary local seismic observation (November 22 the seismic activity in the CFZ experienced relatively few events earthquake source modelling and finite fault inversion) is still needed to describe the fault plane that triggered the Mw5.6 Cianjur earthquake (November 21 The distribution of relocated aftershocks shows clusters in space and time and relatively dense following the moderate earthquake (Mw5.6) with the seismogenic zone between 3 and 13 km Two clusters of aftershocks may indicate a conjugate fault in the Cianjur area and the mainshock (Mw 5.6) occurred in the shorter fault with sinistral movement The findings of this study could be utilized for future research in areas like seismic tomography and seismic hazard assessment in Cianjur The catalog of relocated hypocenters from temporary seismic stations is available on Zenodo (DOI: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.10894944) Simons, W.

Earthquake is one of the disasters that could potentially occur in Cianjur Regency of West Java It is because Cianjur lies on the Cugenang fault which is currently active and prone to shifting In an effort to increase preparedness capacity in disaster risk reduction YAKKUM Emergency Unit (YEU) in collaboration with the Regional Disaster Management Agency (BPBD) of Cianjur Regency carried out a simulation on earthquake emergency response in Nyalindung Village of Cugenang District on Saturday (11/5) The simulation was held based on the Disaster Management Plan and Contingency Plan documents which had been formulated by the Nyalindung Village Disaster Task Force and YEU it was also as a follow-up action from the series of disaster risk reduction training that had previously been carried out The simulation began on 11 May 2024 at 10.15 am local time and was attended by representatives from the BPBD Cianjur the Disaster Task Force of Nyalindung Village and YEU The simulation began with the sounding of an alarm as a sign of an earthquake followed by communication and coordination between the Nyalindung Disaster Task Force and BPBD the Disaster Task Force evacuated and handled injured persons as well as operated a public kitchen for earthquake-affected communities this simulation was very helpful and useful for the Nyalindung community especially for those who were affected by an earthquake The community were more aware of the impact of earthquakes and they can reduce the risk of disaster “We really appreciate the YEU team that has accompanied and assisted Nyalindung Village in preparing DRR documents Contingency Plans and organizing emergency response simulation,” said Wawan The simulation of the earthquake was chosen as the Cianjur region Based on the disaster risk assessment of BPBD Cianjur there are 10 disasters highly likely to occur in the area but only the earthquake is the focus of the simulation Considering the previous earthquake on 21 November 2022 which resulted in hundreds of deaths and thousands of damaged houses then the simulation of earthquake emergency response was carried out with the aim of equipping the Village Disaster Task Force local government and communities with the importance of understanding disaster preparedness and risk reduction it is expected that in the future this simulation can be a regular effort in Nyalindung Village TEMPO.CO, Bandung - The Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysics Agency (BMKG) predicts that several regions of West Java will be showered with rain ranging from light to heavy for a week The potential for moderate to very heavy rain that could be accompanied by thunder or strong winds is likely to occur in many areas as of November 1 On Monday, October 28, moderate to very heavy rain is predicted to occur in the regions of West Bandung there is only a chance around Bogor Regency and City the potential for moderate to heavy rain in Tasikmalaya the potential starts from Bogor Regency and City the potential is in Bogor Regency and City According to the BMKG Meteorological Station in West Java several factors influence the formation of convective clouds and rain in West Java such as the relatively warm sea surface temperatures in some Indonesian waters active Rossby equatorial waves over the weekend Other factors include convergence or the meeting of winds in parts of West Java local atmospheric instability that is mild to strong thereby supporting the convective process on a local scale especially during the afternoon to evening BMKG advises to remain vigilant about the potential impacts of weather during the transition period such as hot or scorching daytime temperatures due to the beginning of convective cloud growth and the potential for light to moderate rain accompanied by thunder and strong winds in the afternoon or evening be alert to hydro-meteorological disasters such as inundation Editor's Choice: BMKG Weather Prediction: Jakarta Likely to Be Overcast, Rain Expected in Bekasi and Depok Click here to get the latest news updates from Tempo on Google News Dedi Mulyadi's Controversial Proposal Draws Mixed Reactions West Java Governor Proposes Vasectomy as Social Assistance Requirement CIANJUR -

The Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysics Agency (BMKG) predicts that most areas in West Java will potentially rain over a week The Head of the Meteorology Station of BMKG West Java said several factors contributing to the increase in the supply of water vapor that forms convective clouds and the occurrence of rain in parts of West Java Rakhmat mentioned that the factors include the relatively warm sea surface temperature around the waters of Indonesia cyclonic circulation in the Indian Ocean west of Sumatra and south of Java "This results in wind bending and convergence in West Java," he said in a written statement on Sunday the overall atmospheric instability is categorized as light to strong light to moderate rains may continue in some parts of West Java The following areas are forecast for moderate to heavy rainfall accompanied by thunder and strong winds on a local scale and of short duration over the next week: BMKG urges residents and relevant authorities to be vigilant for the possible occurrence of hydrometeorological disasters due to extreme weather that could lead to flooding, landslides, and fallen trees such as heavy rains and strong winds Editor's Choice: Japan's Labor Crisis Hits Worst Point Since Covid Pandemic Indonesian Govt Forecasts Hot Weather During Hajj in Saudi Arabia Cases involving food distributed under the free nutritious meal programme were also reported in various regions across Indonesia the Bombana regency in Southeast Sulawesi and Batang in Central Java JAKARTA: Authorities are probing two cases of food poisoning outbreaks that have affected over 170 students under Indonesia's ambitious free nutritious meal programme the latest of at least six known cases since the programme was launched in January The nationwide project - part of President Prabowo Subianto’s key campaign promises - aims to boost the nation’s human resource quality in the long term by improving nutrition in children's meals and nurturing better educational outcomes A recent and widely reported incident took place in Cianjur regency of West Java where at least 165 students were admitted to the hospital for food poisoning after consuming the free meal packages last Monday (Apr 21) “We conducted checks on two schools which had 972 students in total 165 of them were sick,” Head of the Disease Prevention and Control Division of West Java’s Health Office Rochady Hendra said on Saturday A 16-year-old student from the MAN 1 Islamic senior high school in Cianjur said that he noticed a “bad smell” coming from the shredded chicken one of the dishes served in the nutritious meal programme on Monday morning last week I began to feel dizzy and vomited,” 16-year-old M Raihan told Tempo Kompas reported that 78 students from the two schools - MAN 1 Cianjur state Islamic senior high school and SMP PGRI 1 Cianjur junior high school - had shown symptoms of nausea vomiting and diarrhoea after consuming the meal packages The high number of patients due to the food poisoning cases forced the agency administration to declare a state of emergency in the region The West Java Health Agency analysed some samples of food from the kitchen and vomit from the patients to assess for possible microbe contamination while the Cianjur Health Agency suspended meal production at the kitchen service units which produced the free nutritious meals “The laboratory test results (for possible microbe contamination) have not yet been released,” National Nutrition Agency head Dadan Hindayana told Kompas on Monday as he gave the latest updates Dadan also said that the exact cause of the incident remained unclear and was still being investigated he had also said that training and a refresher course would be provided to food handlers to improve their skills He also said that plastic food trays used in packaging the free nutritious meals may have contributed to the food poisoning experienced by the 165 students that’s why we are requesting an immediate replacement,” he told Kompas on Thursday In addition to concerns about the food trays Dadan also instructed the head of the kitchen service unit in Cianjur to separate the flow of incoming and outgoing food items Since the exact cause of the poisoning in Cianjur remains unknown Dadan also said that the investigation has been hampered by the fact that the leftover food had already been disposed of by the schools In addition to conducting lab tests on the food samples still available at the kitchen service unit his agency also inspected the water and utensils used calls from civic organisations have emerged for the government to suspend the programme food poisoning cases involving food distributed under the free nutritious meal programme were also reported in other regions across Indonesia including the Bombana regency in Southeast Sulawesi and Batang in Central Java local media reported that at least 10 students from a primary school in Bombana in Sulawesi fell ill after consuming the free meal packages which included rice The school principal told Tempo that there was an unpleasant smell from the crispy chicken Police later confirmed the following day that 53 out of the 1,026 packages from the kitchen service unit were found to be spoiled The 1,026 packages were supposed to be distributed to three schools in the area at least 60 students from eight schools in Batang Central Java fell ill after consuming the free nutritious meal packages on Apr 14 Indonesia Corruption Watch said that the incident was caused by a lack of standardisation among all kitchen units in preparing the food Diah Saminarsih of the Center for Indonesia’s Strategic Development Initiatives told the Jakarta Post that the food poisoning likely stemmed from the government’s failure to thoroughly consider conditions and other external factors that differ from one region to another “The government must at least review the programme and suspending it isn’t necessarily a bad idea,” she said the issues must be categorised and solutions should be developed in consultation with experts and the public,” she added Indonesian nutritionist Tan Shot Yen said she believes the free meals initiative was rolled out too quickly, CNA reported previously.  “The socialisation of this programme is very scarce at the grassroots,” she added Get our pick of top stories and thought-provoking articles in your inbox Stay updated with notifications for breaking news and our best stories Join our channel for the top reads for the day on your preferred chat app We know it's a hassle to switch browsers but we want your experience with CNA to be fast Upgraded but still having issues?

An earthquake with a magnitude of 3.3 was recorded by the Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysics Agency (BMKG) precisely at 3:38 p.m the earthquake originated from 6.78 degrees South Latitude and 107.28 degrees East Longitude "Located on land 16-kilometer northeast of the center of Cianjur Regency," said the Head of Tangerang BMKG Region II The earthquake's epicenter was shallow at a depth of 4 kilometers and Cikalong Wetan at the intensity scale of II-III MMI the vibration was felt by several people and made light hanging objects swing The earthquake could also be distinctly felt inside houses a tectonic earthquake with a magnitude of 3.9 shook the neighboring region of Cianjur The earthquake originated 83 kilometers in the sea southeast of the center of Sukabumi Regency The Indonesian Ocean quake was shallow at a 16-kilometer depth due to fault activity on the sea floor and shook the Cibeber (Cianjur) and Jampang Kulon (Sukabumi) areas on the intensity scale of III MMI BMKG has recorded four earthquakes of which tremors could be felt throughout the day Two earthquakes occurred earlier in the day with respective magnitudes of M4.8 and M5.3 in Enggano Many people felt the earthquake in Enggano as they were recorded at the III-IV MMI intensity scale The Director of the BMKG Earthquake and Tsunami Center mentioned that the earthquake occurred in a megathrust zone "The earthquake is due to subduction plate activity," he said caused tremors felt on the scale of II-III MMI originating 102 kilometers southwest of Tanggamus at a depth of 74 kilometers in the sea.  Editor’s Choice: Heavy Rain Drenches Indonesia vs Japan Match at GBK HOME ARTICLES The Cianjur Earthquake Reveals the Inadequacy of Disaster Resilience in Indonesia Yanuar Nugroho The aftermath of the Cianjur earthquake which claimed more than 330 lives calls for Jakarta to seriously review its disaster reduction and prevention efforts Much more needs to be done to reduce future losses On 21 November 2022, a 5.6 magnitude earthquake shook Cianjur, West Java, with tremours felt as far away as in Jakarta (about 107 kilometres away) and in Tangerang. As of early December 2022 the quake had not only destroyed buildings and infrastructure but also claimed at least 334 lives and made 114,683 people homeless overnight which did not need to be too powerful to be destructive The level of destruction was mainly because the infrastructure in the Cianjur area and its residents were not disaster ready It is easy to see that a midsized or larger earthquake in Jakarta would wreak much more havoc than in the Cianjur disaster.  neither the national nor metropolitan Jakarta governments seem to have taken serious action in earthquake prevention not even issuing orders to retrofit at-risk buildings.  When opening the seventh session of the Global Platform for Disaster Risk Reduction (GPDRR) in Bali on 25 May 2022, President Joko Widodo (“Jokowi”) stated that that Indonesia was committed to and serious about disaster risk reduction (DRR) Widodo’s administration has not put DRR and mitigation efforts in the mainstream of the country’s infrastructural development policy.  This is despite the existence of the Sendai Declaration in 2015 and the Sendai Framework 2015-2030 which outlined DRR priorities for countries at risk of natural hazards in the wake of Japan’s tragic March 2011 tsunami disaster The framework underlines seven priorities for DRR and emphasises that if DRR were properly integrated into policy governments would be able to reduce existing disaster risks and manage residual risks disaster public literacy in Indonesia is minimal unlike in Japan or other earthquake-prone countries has not properly conducted public education on the risks and impacts of naturally occurring disasters and what to do when such hazards occur there is no evidence that the local government had conducted public education programmes on the risks for locals living near the Cimandiri fault line It is the same for metropolitan Jakarta.  It is this author’s view that such a lack of disaster literacy applies to Indonesia’s elites which includes its decision-makers and public officials How the national government formulates its policies on development and other infrastructural undertakings does not seem to reflect any understanding of the need to follow existing global standards for DRR This is particularly the case for the construction of housing and even critical public structures and facilities like ports and bridges.  but somehow these standards are not applied consistently The village head was warned not to report the case but he changed his mind when a disaster hit the shore of Ranolapo in 2016 Although there is a formal requirement for a Strategic Environmental Assessment (KLHS) where proposed development sites must be analysed for natural disaster or hazard risks where the Central Java Provincial Government disobeyed the KHLS recommendation to mandate that the state-owned Cement Indonesia factory change the location for a lime mining project.  The situation is complicated further because when credible the government response has mostly been that of denial or avoidance One theory in disaster planning and control is that public panic could lead to social unrest and even chaos if it cannot be contained The Cianjur earthquake was a wake-up call for Jakarta and Indonesia at large: to build up the capacity of the government and its people in disaster resilience.  By not seriously committing to a nationwide DRR programme the Jokowi administration might be choosing the appearance of stability over honestly recognising and preparing the population for future disasters This is short-sighted as the potential loss of lives and treasure in the next naturally occurring disaster is only going to increase given climate change and its impact on the largest archipelago in the “Ring of Fire”.  Yanuar Nugroho is Visiting Senior Fellow at the ISEAS - Yusof Ishak Institute Singapore and Senior Lecturer at the Driyarkara School of Philosophy Iim Halimatusa’diyah|Aptiani Nur Jannah|Grace Rachmanda Copyright © 2025 ISEAS – Yusof Ishak Institute At 13:21:10 Western Indonesia Time (GMT +7) on Monday an earthquake of magnitude 5.6 struck the Cianjur district in the West Java province The earthquake's epicenter was situated at a depth of 10 km inland specically at 6.84 degrees South Latitude and 107.05 degrees East Longitude and Geophysics Agency (BMKG) conrmed that the earthquake did not trigger a tsunami warning have occurred since the November 2022 earthquake The largest aftershock measured Magnitude 4.3 while the smallest registered at Magnitude 1.0 the government declared a 30-day state of emergency from 21 November 2022 to 20 December 2022 a 90-day recovery phase was declared following the end of the emergency phase spanning from 21 December 2022 to 20 March 2023 through the Indonesian Disaster Management Authority or Badan Nasional Penanggulangan Bencana (BNPB) launched the Cianjur Emergency Response Plan followed by a recovery plan involving numerous technical ministries and non-governmental organizations The earthquake had impacted a total of 117,068 individuals 114,683 people were evacuated to over 190 evacuation centers across the Cianjur district and a further 7,193 individuals sustained injuries evacuated communities started to return to their homes and commenced their activities aimed at recovery within their villages it was determined that over 60,000 housing units had suered damage with 14,678 of these houses being severely impacted and rendered unsuitable for habitation more than 14,000 households found themselves compelled to continue residing in evacuation centers the earthquake also inicted harm upon water resources and oces while also inciting landslides in the region BNPB led the emergency response activity supported by numerous technical

vulnerability of shelters and buildings Disaster management is often reduced to merely the distribution of emergency relief followed by patchy recovery Then cycle begins again when another supposedly preventable disaster occurs What is missing is a seismic mitigation master plan that barely exists in quake-prone Indonesia Indonesia’s Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics Agency has explained three main elements that led to the Cianjur earthquake’s catastrophic damage: The government already has a national seismic map providing information on potential quakes. The government also provides information information on practical solutions for small families during quakes it does not have a plan to enforce the seismic map After 15 years of disaster management reform in Indonesia the government still needs a clear operational map in implementing and enforcing mitigation policies The operational map for seismic mitigation should be downscaled to a unit or house level - assessing risk and making plans by individual name and address This needs to be followed by regular monitoring I propose seven steps to ensure the continuity of earthquake-safe housing implementation at the grassroots level the government must immediately produce a detailed institutional road map downscaled to the district and neighbourhood levels Such a map must show how local governments routinely adopt and enforce codes and standards for earthquake-resistant shelters Second, creating a public administration system that consistently controls safety standards for housing and infrastructure. The current implementation of local governments’ minimum service standards must include ensuring safe shelters and buildings in disaster-prone areas integrating the building permit process with the disaster mitigation agenda The procedures should function as the first filter to ensure public safety the regulation often only administers permit retribution without any technical provisions regarding the intricacies of how to anticipate disaster transforming the bureaucracy responsible for the issuance of building permits the licensing bureaucracy is prone to corruption permit later” approach because ‘everything can be arranged with money’ The formal procedure I’ve experienced was that it took 2-3 years for a permit to build a house I propose that government eliminate the administrative costs of building permits for poor families in disaster-prone regions The fees often force low-income groups to avoid building permit process Fifth, empowering local builders in villages to be agents of change. My research in Sikka, Flores, East Nusa Tenggara, - one of Indonesia’s earthquake-prone areas where more than half of the housing stock collapsed in 1992 - many local builders often promote seismic mitigation measures Of the dozens of builders and handymen I interviewed between 2008 and 2018 in Sikka they often advise homeowners consider seismic risk reduction poor families do not want to invest in “additional materials” there is always an extra cost to strengthening buildings The picture of a reinforced wall below is an example of a product from local builders Strengthening brick walls using reinforced concrete could help protect them transforming the behaviour of the private sector in building houses Profit over quality often compromises safety the government must develop and implement an ambitious retrofitting program at all levels This can strengthen existing buildings and still functioning houses to withstand the next earthquakes or cyclones In the Cianjur earthquake, once again, we saw that the failure to ensure the safety of school buildings and houses resulted in the death of children Even if there are successful technical solutions a systematic earthquake-safe impact can only be achieved if there is a clear implementation plan The government needs to systematically reduce the hidden transaction costs of building houses The challenge is getting bigger because there are more and more ageing buildings and houses in earthquake-prone areas but there is no guarantee 25 years from now when these shelters will be tested by extreme weather and earthquake events on a regular basis This article was originally published in Indonesian Cari English Grieving over Destruction Caused by Quake in Cianjur TEKS › English›Grieving over Destruction..

“This tectonic complexity has the potential to trigger shallow crustal earthquakes It is a permanent earthquake prone area,” he said Several damaging earthquakes have also occurred in the Sukabumi-Cianjur zone which are thought to have been caused by activity at the Cimandiri fault there were strong earthquakes that damaged Cianjur and its surroundings there were 5.4- and 5.5-magnitude earthquakes respectively which had caused a lot of damage and casualties there was a 5.1-magnitude earthquake that resulted in more than 1,900 severely damaged homes,” he said A seismologist from the Bandung Institute of Technology (ITB) said the Cimandiri fault zone could trigger an earthquake measuring up to 7.4 magnitude “Historical records indicate that a major earthquake in the 1800s that originated in this area caused damage to Batavia,” he said This amplification causes a large scale of damage even though the strength of the earthquake is relatively small the vulnerability of the West Java region to the impact of earthquakes is also due to its geomorphological conditions in the form of valleys and hills which are prone to landslides if shocks occur soil layers of thick volcanic sediments can also potentially amplify these shocks “This amplification causes a large scale of damage even though the strength of the earthquake is relatively small,” he said This article

Engineering Department laboratory ITS News – Staying in an earthquake-prone area Indonesia was once again shocked by the earthquake that hit Cianjur Regency Cianjur was rocked by an earthquake with a magnitude of 5.6 which claimed more than 100 lives and lost thousands of buildings According to the observations of senior researchers from the Research Center for Disaster Mitigation and Climate Change (Puslit MKPI) ITS Dr the Cianjur earthquake occurred due to tectonic plates that have moved and pressed Indonesia’s territory since millions of years ago the source of the ground earthquake from this active fault is still not known with certainty adjacent to Cianjur there is the Cimandiri fault which stretches from Pelabuhan Ratu Bay to Cianjur the location of the fault which is far to the north of the incident is certainly not the cause of this Cianjur earthquake,” Amien confirmed Data report from the National Disaster Mitigation Agency (BNPB) as of 22 November 2022 morning recorded 103 people died world due to the impact of the earthquake As many as 377 people were injured and 7,064 people were displaced as a result of this natural disaster Not to mention thousands of buildings also suffered light to heavy damage The location of the earthquake in Cianjur Regency with a magnitude of 5.6 on November 21 The earthquake was enough to feel the shaking Even though it is classified as a small magnitude the shallow position of the earthquake event causes damage to the buildings above it the earthquake that occurred did not have the potential for a tsunami because the source of the earthquake came from the mainland Explained by ITS Geophysics Engineering Department lecturer an earthquake is an event whose appearance cannot be predicted reflecting on the earthquake that has hit Indonesia several times it should be used as a reference for mitigation Mitigation itself is divided into two types Namely structural mitigation that focuses on infrastructure development and non-structural mitigation that focuses on public education Amien also explained earthquake relief based on the results of the 1995 Kobe earthquake survey the biggest responsibility for our safety lies with ourselves “Instill knowledge about earthquakes so we can be safe,” he reminded Amien also hopes that the government will better map the existing faults in Indonesia and provide a mapping of how the distance and model of the house should be built “Keep in mind that earthquakes don’t kill so mapping needs to be done,” he emphasized once again Amien hopes that the community can restore

West Java on 22 November 2022 left thousands of houses heavily damaged especially the urgency for building tents/shelters ITB and Rumah Amal Salman helped victims of the earthquake by constructing temporary shelters made of bamboo he made the shelter in consideration of its quick set-up and good accommodation Bamboo is selected as the main material due to its ease of access its internal strength is remarkable as support "Bamboo has been well-known as a good temporary semi-permanent material since long ago," Dr Andry explained.The bamboo shelters were able to be built in a short time- approximately in one day- starting from laying of the first frame until its subsequent construction processes The secret of its rapid assembly is its simple installation technique and structural strength that depends on the shape that causes its space the people there are familiar with bamboo as a construction material applying the nut-bolt technique with bamboo is new for them they can learn this technique fast and quickly contributed to the shelters’ construction," he added Andry’s innovative bamboo shelter is based on the earthquake shelter he had worked on before "I had already prepared ready-made structures and models My team and I took a lot of inspiration from previous cases Due to differences in location and environment the designs that will be built could not simply be a copy from the previous cases "The wind strength in Cianjur is different than Lombok and Palu we must create a design that adapts to its surroundings while maintaining a similar structure," Dr "This bamboo shelter is able to accommodate more than 50 people with better spatial comfort" the dimension of shelter for victims of natural disaster is 5.5m x 12m x 3.25m Most tents use tarps as their cover which conducts heat from the sun to the space below it directly The bamboo shelter also utilizes the same cover except its ability to provide more comfort The minimum height of this shelter reaches 5m; hence heat exposure does not interfere with the space under it the shelter can reach a span of 8x12m with a height of 4-5m this bamboo shelter was able to stand for up to 6 months Reports received from the team revealed that the people feel cooler and more comfortable using this shelter." shelters serving as emergency mosques have also been established on 2 December 2022 "My team and I are very pleased with the enthusiasm from both the community and ZENI members on the site Many take photos of the shelters and want to learn more about them," Dr Andry said when asked what his future hopes are for his innovations in disaster mitigation assistance Andry and his team planned to hold a workshop about their bamboo shelter to rescue teams so that its principles and construction can be shared with people in need Reporter: Madeline Abigail Lukito (Architecture 2020)Translator: Ruth Nathania (Environmental Engineering itb.ac.id – Institut Teknologi Bandung (ITB) through the Institute

primarily relies on surface water from irrigation runoff The water supply fluctuates with the rice planting season but it significantly decreases during the dry season which doesn't align with the rice planting season the villagers are compelled to use river water To address the limited surface water problem and including team members Dimas Putra Wahyudi (15820010) The team involves three students of Environmental Infrastructure Engineering and a student of Water Resource Engineering and Management to test the groundwater sample "Based on geoelectrical interpretation conducted in the middle of July the groundwater potential in this village is at a depth of 75 meters we found an adequate water supply at a depth of 50 meters and the drilling was halted at a depth of 56 meters The drilling took place in August 2023," explained the lecturer from the Water Resource Engineering Research Group Groundwater was chosen due to its reliability compared to shallow wells or water from irrigation runoff "The produced water has a substantial flow rate and is clear It takes about a week to ensure that the well water is tasteless which is still within reasonable limits," shared Farhan Setiawan This program is integrated with other community services such as the establishment of sanitation infrastructure The plan includes the construction of a water tower on top of the MCK building in the same place Groundwater will be pumped and automatically stored in the 1000-liter water tower The community services have been ongoing since July 2023 and are expected to conclude before the new year Arno Adi Kuntoro hopes that the provided water resource can meet the needs of 49 families in Cinangsi Village the operation and maintenance of this drilled well is continuous as it has been

entering the bamboo structure making it more durable and resistant to decay Modular bamboo flooring and roof coverings provide flexibility and speed in construction the flooring and the lower part of the structure are raised above the ground to protect against termites and provide comfort Professor Eugenius Pradipto hopes to involve faculties from other disciplines in carrying out social activities in Talaga Village “I have a roof tile block system that can change or extend its lifespan it can be increased to 20 years because of its reversible construction system The advantage is that only one-third of the tile is exposed with two-thirds covered by the layer above it,” the professor said This allows us to compete with factory-made roof tile products it is very affordable without

river watershed in West Java with its main river stretching 269 km long One region situated on the banks of Citarum RSA is the Cianjur Regency specifically in the middle of Cirata Reservoir According to the monthly precipitation data of Central Citarum Watershed the region has a monsoon climate with two rain peaks concentrated in rainy months the precipitation rate decreases as much as under 100mm/month during the dry season According to the result of field condition monitoring some communities in the Cianjur Regency have no access to clean water as determined by the Minister of Health Regulation 2010 No 492 regarding the Drinking Water Quality Specification An example of this case was the drought in the 2010 dry season where the water crisis forced local residents to use water from the Cisalak River the water did not meet the health regulation to be used for bath The catastrophe showed how vital water resource management is for mitigating water inequality during drier months One solution to ensure clean water is to provide an alternative water supply by constructing a Rainwater Harvesting (RWH) facility Through the Citarum Community Service Program 2022 ITB has contributed to building an RWH system in Tarikolot Village The RWH is expected to reduce the scale of water extraction from wells and protected springs which is currently sitting at 53,67% of our water sources “Water from the RWH system will be used for irrigation or even drinking purposes after further processing RWH is usually applied in areas with a precipitation rate of more than 200mm/year and this applies to Indonesia,” explained Dr The required components for RWH are a catchment area (rooftop) channel or pipe (from the rooftop to reservoir) This system can utilize a wide range of filters from a basic one like a sand filter to a more sophisticated one like a Reverse Osmosis if the water will be used for drinking purposes The volume of containment tank could also be customized depending on the water quantity needed or the amount of space available Another filtration system made from zeolite there are multiple stages in the RWH planning process we need to obtain actual condition analysis through field surveys the team will select the location for constructing the RWH system The ideal location is in a critical area with a minimum precipitation rate of 1300 mm/year another condition that one must be mindful of is its position which is placed on a building’s side or back area near a chamfer as well as possible to store the materials and tools needed The third step is designing the facility in adherence to the Indonesian National Standard we need to maintain the RWH container by draining it once every two months and during rainy seasons and routine cleaning of the chamfer and reservoir’s base Mariana also invited local communities to support the operation and maintenance of the RWH by appointing individuals or groups as the management team Clean water distribution is regulated with a schedule “RWH maintenance must be carried out daily and annually by the management team or the community as PRW users,” she added the ITB team also held educational activities intended for 100 year 5 and 6 students of the Tegalsari Primary School to teach them the importance of clean water They were given an introductory course to various clean water sources and the system and components of PRW students can comprehend the function of PRW and utilize it optimally for their daily life *This article had been published in Media Indonesia Reporter: Sekar Dianwidi Bisowarno

for assisting us with our daily requirements.” Ati conclude he deadly earthquake that struck on Monday in Cianjur regency has highlighted the shortcomings in the nation’s disaster preparedness sparking calls for more disaster risk reduction at a time when policymakers have focused more on disaster response natural disasters are a common occurrence across the Indonesian archipelago Data from the National Disaster Mitigation Agency (BNPB) show that over 3,000 natural disasters resulting in the deaths of more than 700 people were recorded in 2021 alone more than 5,000 people lost their lives to natural disasters the majority in the devastating 7.4-magnitude earthquake and tsunami that struck Palu As the death toll continues to rise with dozens still unaccounted for in the aftermath of the Cianjur quake disaster management experts bemoaned that authorities seemed none the wiser Policymakers had yet to learn from the mistakes made in the wake of such disasters a policy researcher at the Centre for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) He noted that the nation’s disaster policies leaned more toward offering stopgap solutions in disaster response as opposed to investing in preventive measures to mitigate future risks our policymakers are more concerned with disaster response not preparedness,” Dzakwan told The Jakarta Post “What we need is political commitment […] from the government to prioritize continuity in addressing natural disasters.” This lack of commitment had contributed to failed efforts in amending the country’s outdated 2007 Disaster Mitigation Law as well as by local administrations in building adequate capacity for regional disaster mitigation agencies (BPBD) Climatology and Geophysics Agency (BMKG) has an online platform that provides public information on potential natural disasters but Dzakwan insists the government must also ensure that the country’s early warning system is effective “There needs to be concrete collaboration involving many parties,” he said “The Communications and Information Ministry also needs to play its part by ensuring that more people can access the internet.” Monday’s 5.6-magnitude quake has resulted in hundreds of lives lost and displaced people It also destroyed buildings and infrastructure BNPB chief Suharyanto told the press from his temporary field office in Cianjur that 272 people had been killed and 2,046 injured as of Thursday President Joko “Jokowi” Widodo instructed the Public Works and Housing Ministry to lead the efforts to rebuild local houses that had been destroyed or damaged in the disaster and to ensure that the new buildings met the standards for earthquake-proof structures Saut Sagala of the Research Development Initiative (RDI) in Bandung said authorities needed to incorporate the principles of urban planning in its disaster preparedness initiatives particularly with regard to better supervision over building permits (IMB) the government should take into consideration [disaster risk] before agreeing to issue them,” Saut told the Post on Thursday He also underlined that authorities also needed to conduct more inspections on the structural integrity of existing buildings Authorities have pointed to flawed construction as a major factor contributing to the high death toll The Cianjur quake had caused varying levels of damage to more than 56,000 houses across 15 districts in the regency as of Thursday with the top-down approach to national policies on disaster preparedness Saut said local communities also needed to build collective awareness and capacity to anticipate worst-case scenarios “It is imperative for communities to have a bottom-up approach to disaster preparedness Whether they receive aid from international NGOs or the government [people] usually need to see proof that something is working” before implementing the programs locally Community-based initiatives for disaster preparedness should incorporate drills on what to do in the event of a disaster including as part of the curriculum at local schools the deputy representative of the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) Indonesia told the Post on Thursday that Indonesia’s disaster preparedness and response could still be improved with a greater emphasis on children’s welfare particularly as they were among the most vulnerable groups in a disaster “[Disaster preparedness] is always something of a work in progress and that is not only an issue in Indonesia “But in a country where disaster is common children’s lives are always on the line We have to make disaster plans centered on their needs.” the BMKG’s earthquake and tsunami mitigation head said the country’s capacity in disaster mitigation was still limited due to different levels of public awareness on disaster risk reduction across disaster-prone areas “The availability of disaster mitigation educators is also limited some regional administrations are not yet aware what their areas should do to mitigate disasters,” he said on Wednesday The BNPB’s Suharyanto said the agency would continue to champion the pentahelix collaboration approach to improving Indonesia’s disaster preparedness which involved synergy between multiple stakeholders in government “Indonesia is a supermarket for natural disasters,” he told the Post on Wednesday “It will take time to increase people’s awareness that they live in a disaster-prone area offering 31 nationally and internationally accredited Study Programs Untar is committed to improve human resource quality by providing
