Flames still visible in the area of the forest and land on Mount Arjuno in Prigen District
The cause of the fire was due to hunters who burned the land
This long dry season has made the disaster forest fires and land or forest fires increasingly worrying. There are at least seven provinces that have declared forest and land fire disaster alert status
The seven provinces that still have forest and land fire disaster alert status based on data from the National Disaster Management Agency on October 13 2023 are Riau
The determination of disaster alert status is inseparable from the potential for widespread forest fires as a result of the long dry season which causes rainfall intensity to decrease and causes fires or hotspots
South Sumatra is the province with the most districts/cities that have declared forest and land fire disaster alert status
followed by Central Kalimantan with 5 districts/cities
From several provinces and cities that are on alert for forest and land fires disasters
there are some areas that have upgraded their status to emergency response
South Kalimantan has elevated its forest and land fire emergency status since May 2023
there are Ogan Komering Ilir Regency (South Sumatra)
Kotawaringin Timur Regency (Central Kalimantan)
These areas are currently in a state of emergency regarding forest and land fires
Taruna Siaga Bencana (Tagana) personnel in South Kalimantan are fighting to put out a peatland fire in the Syamsudin Noor Village of Banjarbaru City on Saturday (7/10/2023)
Extinguishing the fire is a priority to prevent the haze from disrupting flights at the Syamsudin Noor International Airport
The determination of emergency alert and response status is inseparable from the increasingly worrying nature of the forest and land fires disaster
the Ministry of Environment and Forestry's (KLHK) monitoring system for forest and land fires
indications are that the area of forest and land fires in Indonesia this year has increased from 2022
forest and land fires have already burned 267,935.59 hectares of land and forests
This year, the most land and forest fires occurred in West Kalimantan, NTT, NTB, South Kalimantan, South Papua, East Java and Central Kalimantan. In West Kalimantan, the indicated area of forest and land fires reached 54,402.81 hectares
the majority (97 percent) of fires occurred in non-forest areas
West Kalimantan is not only an area with the largest wildfire coverage
but it also recorded the highest increase in the affected area of forest and land fires compared to 2022
the land affected by forest and land fires in West Kalimantan reached 21,836 hectares
This condition reflects an increase of more than two-fold in the forest and land fire disaster in West Kalimantan
Aerial photos show fire burning on land at the entrance of the Rambutan Toll Gate on the Palembang-Indralaya section of the Trans-Sumatra Toll Road (JTTS) in Sungai Rambutan Village
Other regions that also experienced an increase in forest and land fires from the aspect of area burned are Kalimantan
there were 100,945.57 hectares of land and forest burned in five provinces in Kalimantan
This amount has increased four times compared to a similar disaster that occurred throughout 2022
forest and land fires in Java and Sulawesi also show an increasing trend this year compared to 2022
the incidence of forest and land fires has increased in East Java
The phenomenon of increasing forest and land fires (karhutla) in Java Island is partly caused by fires on several mountains
such as Mount Arjuno and Mount Bromo in East Java
the increase in karhutla areas occurred in Southeast Sulawesi
Manggala Agni personnel are currently working to extinguish a peatland fire in Deling village
the area of burnt land and forests in Sumatra this year has decreased compared to 2022
there were 13,544 hectares of burnt land on the island of Sumatra
and Riau Islands actually experienced an increase
forest fires have already burned 4,082.82 hectares of land in the past eight months
Looking at the emergency alert status that has been implemented
South Sumatra is the region with the most preparedness to handle forest and land fires
These regions are Ogan Komering Ulu (OKU) District
Also read: Forest and Forestry Emergency in Mountainous Areas on the Island of Java
The emergency alert on forest and land fires (karhutla) phenomenon in 2023 reminds us of a similar event in 2019
According to the Ministry of Environment and Forestry (KLHK)
there were indications of forest and land fires covering an area of 1.64 million hectares in 2019
The regions with increased distribution compared to 2018 were Kalimantan and Java
the areas that experienced this fire disaster tend to be the same as those that occurred in 2023
the regions that experience the most forest and land fires are South Sumatra
Officials are trying to extinguish a fire during a forest and land fire in the Gunung Lawu area
2,611,411.44 hectares of forest and land were affected by fires
The two provinces that experienced the most extensive forest fires were South Sumatra and Central Kalimantan
there were indications of vast forest and land fires reaching 646,298.80 hectares
while in Central Kalimantan it reached 583,833.44 hectares
After South Sumatra and Central Kalimantan
other provinces that experienced many forest and land fires were Papua
The government has made several improvements in handling the forest and land fire disaster that continues to occur every year
cross-agency coordination in handling forest and land fires has been emphasized through Presidential Instruction (Inpres) Number 11 of 2015 regarding the Improvement of Forest and Land Fire Control
Also read: Fire and Forestry Haze Cases Across National Borders
The issuance of this regulation has made the handling of forest and land fires (karhutla) in Indonesia more coordinated and continues to show positive trends
The number of burned areas due to karhutla continues to decrease from year to year
several regions still have a great potential for karhutla disasters
According to the Indonesian Disaster Data of 2022
areas with potential forest and land fire disasters include Riau
the emergence of the El Nino phenomenon poses a threat to the handling of forest and land fires disaster
which is marked by increasing water temperatures in the eastern and central Pacific
causes an increase in atmospheric temperature and humidity above it
El Nino can also cause severe drought in some regions
Prediction of the arrival of El Nino has been given by the BMKG since the beginning of 2023
The potential risk of disasters that may occur are droughts
The disasters caused by this prolonged dry season tend to be similar to those that occurred in 2015 and 2019
which were the impacts of the El Nino phenomenon
If the causes of the occurrence of large-scale forest and land fires have been identified (El Nino phenomenon) and the distribution of potential affected areas has been mapped out (Sumatra and Kalimantan)
the steps to handle forest and land fires should be more anticipated
Also read: Air worsens due to forest and land fires, residents should reduce outdoor activities
This handling can be achieved by providing more support for adequate equipment facilities
and budgetary support for handling karhutla disasters in provinces with high potential for land fires
This handling step can also be combined with a prevention strategy through disaster mitigation
The phases of forest and land fires that intersect with the arrival of the El Nino phenomenon can be examined to prevent the widespread impact of forest and land fires that are currently potential to occur in this four-year cycle

Which country comes to mind when you think of a cool climate with mountains
Indonesia might not have crossed your mind
yet we were mind-blown when my family of 5 experienced what East Java had to offer
We discovered that East Java is a family-friendly destination for adventure seekers and nature lovers.
We were headed for Baobab Safari Resort and Plataran Bromo
2 resorts which were recommended by a friend who went with young kids prior to us
As my family loves hiking and mountainous places
these 2 resorts ticked all our boxes as ideal travel destinations.
Keeping a travel journal helped my boys number their days on vacation and take stock of the memorable moments we had on this trip.
situated on the slopes of Mount Arjuno and about 1 hour 20 minutes south from Juanda International Airport
We arranged for an airport transfer but there are ride-hailing operators like Gojek and Grab which would be able to take you to Baobab too.
We were ushered to the concierge where meerkats stood guard in their enclosure on the side and giraffes were frolicking in front of the resort’s swimming pool
Swim beside the tallest creatures in the world
Note that the pool water was cold in December but less likely so during the warmer months of the year.
Baobab impressively created safari feels from the moment we entered
We excitedly checked into our room which had a view toward the resort’s savanna where antelopes
The housekeeping staff even had a surprise add-on to the room amenities which thrilled the boys – a basket of carrots for animal feeding
Evening time was lovely as we settled in to sleep
with the resort lawn lit up with fairy lights and as the weather cooled to a temperature of 22 degree Celsius.
After a hearty hotel breakfast the following morning
we signed up for giraffe feeding which cost about SGD17 for our family of 5.
we were allowed into the area exclusively for the feeding and were given a basket filled with the giraffes’ favourite foods
The boys were apprehensive at first due to the giraffes’ large stature but soon warmed up to feeding the 3 available giraffes due to their gentle demeanour.
We soon learnt that there were other safari animals on the resort grounds such as pelicans
and went to see them chilling out in their pens
The resort also has other activities such as animal feedings and ATV Adventure which we did not have time for
You could even take a photo with the cockatoos and rangers on duty
The safari bus tour surpassed our expectations – it was air-conditioned
which was perfect for young families on both sunny and overcast days
and we did not have to experience the olfactory aspect of the zoo
we were comfortable with just admiring the antics and majestic nature of the animals through a glass window in the moving vehicle.
We were able to see animals not featured in Singapore’s zoos such as bison
llamas and camels amidst the other popular favourites like the lions
My children bounded out of the tour bus in sheer excitement when we alighted right in front of the amusement park
flying carousel and bumper boats were the boys’ top favourites amongst other rides.
The animal shows featuring elephants and dolphins separately were as entertaining to us as it was for the boys
we could all vouch that it was a fun family time in Taman Safari Prigen
Have you exchanged places with animals in your life
That was how I felt when we entered a caged vehicle
this time not as ticketed guests in a tour bus but as caged guests getting ready to feed some predators
we were locked in the cage from within and briefed on safety tips by the guides.
It was a unique experience coming so close to these powerful creatures
As we fed them chicken pieces with long metal tongs
I couldn’t help but marvel at the beautiful features of the lionesses and how the teeth of the brown bear and tiger had the power to tear meat apart
It was indeed a humbling time and a shared family memory that I’d treasure.
we checked out of Baobab and went on a hunt for a waterfall to hike to
we hired a driver who advised us that not all waterfalls were safely paved or accessible due to high rainfall in the monsoon season
we found a kid-friendly waterfall hike (about 15 minutes one-way) to Putuk Truno Waterfall
we were able to view the waterfall from a distance and up close with steps provided down to the foot of the falls.
The drive to Plataran Bromo is winding so arm yourselves with motion sickness medicine
bands and sweets if you tend to be woozy on long bendy drives
we were received by the butler team and were served buns and hot tea
My eldest exclaimed that he felt like royalty
and indeed we were treated as such as the hotel staff served as with the warmest hospitality.
The views were particularly stunning as we were surrounded by hills in the foreground and mountains in a distance
One moment you are admiring the view and the next
you are standing amidst a sea of clouds and fog
The weather was cool between 16 to 23 degree Celsius.
Afternoon tea was served daily and kids were invited to cook or bake like a chef
My older boys jumped at the sensorial opportunity to roll the dough and press out cookies with the cookie cutters provided.
A play area for kids in the main restaurant was also regularly upkept by the staff
This truly is a haven for kids and their parents!
How does a resort stay with minimal screentime look like
Lots of outdoor exploration and fun was offered such as horseback riding
Our family took turns on horseback and were guided by the horse trainers in a circuit fashion along the road
15 minutes on these creatures was sufficient to give us a taste of this sport without feeling fatigue.
Did we mention that the resort has its own carnival called Plataran Carnival Playground
The boys were ectastic when they heard that they could go on unlimited rides of their choice for the whole hotel stay.
All these were manned by a resort staff and it was interesting to point out to the boys how the mechanisms worked.
sheep and rabbit feeding on the resort grounds
one of which was the ‘Vintage Campervan Picnic’
We signed up for it but the foggy weather did not permit it to happen till Day 6.
we hopped onto the resort buggy and headed to Tanggulangin Hills
rustling trees and endless vast landscapes to gush at.
It is also home to a children’s eco playground which includes see saws
There was farmland growing onions and potatoes surrounding the resort grounds
It was so refreshing to let the boys roam free and for us to enjoy some couple time.
the chances of having an al fresco dinner were slim
The hotel staff were kind enough to postpone our picnic till the last day and even offered to shift the venue indoors should it be wet outside
the weather was clear and we had a lovely campfire dinner cooked by 2 chefs
The general manager even popped by to greet us and exclaimed that this particular evening was the first time in 2 months that it was dry enough to have the picnic happen
Relaxing by the campfire with a beautiful sunset in the backdrop was a sweet ending to our trip in East Java.
East Java is also home to several prominent volcanoes. We did visit the famous Mount Bromo in between both resorts – attempting both the sunrise viewing and hike across the Sea of Sand to summit Mount Bromo. You could do so too and follow this itinerary or take a jeep offered by Plataran Bromo
the village in closest proximity to access Mount Bromo
A driver is recommended for this leg should you decide to include it in your travel plans
Stay safe and have fun travelling with your loved ones
“I am very satisfied staying at Baobab Resort with all the very unique amenities.”
The perfect weekend getaway in Indonesia for animal and nature lovers
When we were searching for a unique place to stay in Indonesia for our next visit to the country
It is an African Savanna-inspired resort on the slopes of Mount Arjuno in Taman Safari Prigen in East Java
Baobab Safari Resort surprised us in many ways
we explored the jungle and had a great time interacting with the safari animals
It’s not often that you get to enjoy a posh resort and have wildlife encounters at the same time
Families with kids will definitely love this place like we did
Who wouldn’t like waking up to the view of zebras
and more animals you usually see in the wild
Simply being surrounded by these creatures is a privilege for all ages
Aside from spending our days feeding the giraffes for free
we enjoyed swimming in the resort's infinity pool
But the best part of it was that we saw some animals roam freely around the area
The nature lover in us delighted and marvelled at the grandiose beauty of Mount Arjuno
We’d say that staying at Baobab Safari Resort was truly one for the books
and we recommend it for those who love both nature and luxury
