extraordinary event traffic congestion was still evident from the entrance of Sungai Bambu village up to the entrance gate of Tanjung Priok the Executive General Manager of Pelindo Regional 2 Tanjung Priok explained that this situation occurred due to an increase in the flow of container goods that will be engaged in receiving and shipping containers at the Tanjung Priok Port This coincides with the conclusion of the Eid homecoming period and the post-restriction of goods traffic Adi stated that in the loading and unloading process there were no obstacles due to the error system both at the Port gate and at the container terminal of Priok Port "It is certain that the loading and unloading of the ship is running smoothly without any obstacles," he said He gave an example of one of the congestion points namely at the NPCT 1 Terminal due to the increase in the volume of vehicles carrying out container receiving delivery activities Data shows an increase in the number of trucks entering the terminal "The spike even reached 100 percent," he said the number of trucks entering New Priok Container Terminal (NPCT) 1 is less than 2,500 trucks the number of trucks reached over 4,000 units The operating system at the terminal and at the Common Area entrance to NPCT1 is confirmed to be normal without any problems partners and stakeholders affected by the congestion that occurred "The dense loading and unloading activity is due to the rhythm of the receiving delivery process at the terminal which is carried out simultaneously after the restrictions and to catch up before the joint holiday which falls on Friday (18/4/2025) to Sunday (20/4/2025)," he said Adi is committed to continuing efforts to maintain operational smoothness and ensure that services to customers remain optimal "Even though there has been an increase in logistics volume we do not cease to coordinate with the police to assist in alleviating congestion at the Tanjung Priok Port." the Head of the Port Authority and Harbormaster Office (KSOP) of Tanjung Priok Port stated that coordination is ongoing to resolve the congestion issues that have arisen He also assured that there are no problems with the system at the container terminal The dense loading and unloading activity is due to the rhythm of the receiving delivery process at the terminal which is carried out simultaneously after the restrictions and to catch up before the joint holiday which falls on Friday (18/4/2025) to Sunday (20/4/2025) "We request that terminal operators expedite the service for the receipt and delivery of goods and maximize the available buffer," he stated stated that his team has coordinated with the North Jakarta Police and is making optimal efforts to alleviate traffic congestion in collaboration with the Port Facility Security Officer (PFSO) of the port as well as implementing traffic diversion and engineering "We also ensure the safety of truck drivers that there is no extortion and illegal levies within the port Please report immediately if there are still any illegal levies," said Martuasah the Head of the Traffic Unit of the North Jakarta Metro Police Assistant Commissioner Donny Bagus Wibisono stated that they hope car and motorcycle drivers can use the alternative routes that have been prepared to anticipate traffic congestion If the driver comes from the direction of Cilincing to Yos Sudarso the driver can pass the red light (Traffic Light/TL) Jaya to the left towards Simpang lima semper then towards Plumpang towards Pasar Ular the driver can go right towards the North Jakarta Police or towards Koja Hospital or Jalan Yos Sudarso drivers can turn left towards the intersection by the riverbank drivers can turn right onto Yos Sudarso Street or towards Pasar Ular heading to Simpang Lima Semper towards TL Jaya Cilincing for drivers passing through Terbus Tanjung Priok and then continue straight towards Jln Sunter Utara "We urge drivers who do not have urgent matters to avoid Jalan Yos Sudarso," he said A severe traffic jam that lasted two days at Tanjung Priok Port in North Jakarta has caused significant losses According to the Indonesian Truck Entrepreneurs Association (Aptrindo) the congestion halted truck activities heading to the port leading to an estimated loss of Rp 120 billion ($7 million) Aptrindo chairman Gemilang Tarigan said the financial impact on truck operators included rising fuel costs “The losses we incurred amounted to Rp 120 billion yesterday,” Gemilang told Beritasatu.com The Jakarta Globe's sister publication “There are many components contributing to the losses If the congestion continues and trucks remain stuck the losses will keep increasing,” he added Gemilang pointed out that traffic congestion is a common issue especially at the entrance to the NPCT 1 terminal at Tanjung Priok Port A surge in vehicle volume has resulted in long queues at the terminal “This surge in truck numbers caused congestion on arterial roads We've raised this issue multiple times with Pelindo and other stakeholders suggesting that the common gate at NPCT-1 be eliminated,” he emphasized began early Thursday morning and lasted well into the night spent over five hours in gridlock for a journey that would normally take just 30 minutes “I’ve been stuck since 9:30 a.m and only reached the port entrance at 4 p.m but today was on another level,” Arifin said expressed frustration after his gate pass expired due to being stuck in the severe traffic The congestion stretched across major roads and the Wiyoto Wiyono and Sedyatmo toll roads The number of trucks heading to the NPCT 1 terminal surged to over 4,000 attributed the traffic jam to a post-Eid spike in cargo deliveries as truck operators rushed to resume activities after holiday transport restrictions were lifted traffic around Tanjung Priok Port began to ease and vehicles that had been stranded earlier in the day started moving again.  Harry Nurcahyo from the Jakarta Police Traffic Corps explained that traffic flow was managed using a system of opening and closing concrete barriers near the Kebon Bawang toll gate “When there is movement from the Tanjung Priok Container Terminal we will open the barriers again,” Harry explained regarding the efforts to control the traffic congestion heading into the port The

The initial purpose of the birthday trip was a scuba-diving liveaboard traveling through the Banda Sea up to Raja Ampat – a hotspot of marine biodiversity located in the middle of the Coral Triangle But my friends decided on an additional rendezvous to Lombok Indonesia: the island just east of Bali has become a common surf destination and is often described as ‘what Bali used to be’ has become well known as tourists and conservationists from across the globe come to peek into this foreign world and document the plight of these endangered species Overexploitation is undoubtedly the leading cause of global elasmobranch decline and Indonesia is reported to be the biggest shark fishing country in the world While shark exports initially began due to bycatch in tuna fisheries target fishing eventually resulted as the demand for shark fins exploded in the 1980s Fisheries are extremely important in this area of the world the meat is often used locally as an important source of protein and the practice contributes significantly to livelihood income Shark fishing has been going on for close to half a century now but a combination of conservationist documentation and scientific efforts have brought attention to the need for management and activated efforts toward them management in low-income countries is not a cut and dry activity and therefore require some kind of holistic assessment beforehand for management to truly be successful Although most of us were interested in going only three ultimately committed to the hour-plus long scooter journey The sun appeared from below the horizon with a peaceful warm orange colour that contrasted the dirty browns and chaos met at the market itself As we made the final turns into Tanjung Luar the pungent smell of fish intensified as we encountered the bustling crowds of any Sunday market and directed in by local scooter control many pointed and giggled at us and the oddity we were to them we made our way through the front gates and were welcomed by women and men with buckets of all types of various fish species – some I recognised I remember turning towards my friend Taylah and saying: “I find it so much harder to identify fish when they’re out of the water; it’s like they have a different look to them And you can’t see the way they swim.” We wandered around a bit looking for a sign of where the sharks could be when the stench started to get more intense Both Taylah and I have been working in the marine conservation space for the last five years She and I met a few years on a boat contracted to help control the outbreaks of Crown-of-Thorns-Starfish out on the Great Barrier Reef the main objective of our presence was to conduct culling operations for these echinoderms Their populations pose a significant threat to an already at-risk ecosystem; coral resilience is hindered by their sheer numbers and predation efficiency All the staff onboard took that job because of the opportunity it presented: Voyages were undertaken for two weeks out at sea in some of the most remote areas of the Great Barrier Reef that have been virtually unseen by most our main goals on the boat revolved around any interactions with unique animals Every dive we would cross our fingers and toes to encounter a large hammerhead or any creature we had yet to see underwater our values of both marine animals and the environment are based around biodiversity when we turned the corner in Lombok and found what we were looking for Project Hiu (‘hiu’ being the Bahasa word for shark) aims to work with the shark fishing community and pays them to engage in tourism and shift away from this high-risk activity The project has now contracted eleven boats to operate as tourist vessels conducts research trips for tagging sharks and has provided essential services to these underdeveloped communities Her work inspired my thesis investigating how many other NGO’s may be attempting similar work The first thing I noticed was the dominance of smaller sharks covering the market floor Are they targeting smaller sharks on purpose The rotten egg stench was mildly unbearable though the people surrounding the platform seemed bored and unoffended Fishermen on the boats tossed the smaller sharks straight onto the debris-covered sand – almost hitting another worker trying to identify as many species as we could We were unsure how invasive our presence was and didn’t want to walk on the platform to get a closer look at these species I could clearly identify a blue shark and heaps of smaller scalloped hammerheads both species I had yet to see in real life But the worst part was seeing my personal favourite shark next to two or three large scalloper hammerheads While we stood there whispering to each other a local came up to us and asked us where we were from and pointed out some of the shark species though we tried to hide our true emotions in that moment – disbelief All these sharks that we had once been so desperate to see in the water were now – in numbers we never could’ve imagined – lifeless on the floor in front of us Taylah had to turn around a few times to wipe her tears away My eyes widened in disbelief at the relentless number of maggots crawling alongside the edges of the platform Blood and dirt on the platform were rinsed away as the market workers shifted from hauling the animals onto the floor to hacking off the fins of the sharks “All of this for a soup,” Taylah whispered deeply disheartened as we watched another worker measure the fins of the larger sharks Once reserved for elites in ancient China to showcase their wealth the increased economic status across China has led to an equal rise in demand for the dish It is common to see the dish served at banquets and other celebrations to represent abundance and prosperity there has been significant effort to better educate shark fin consumers with shark sustainability concerns a recent publication investigating preferences shows that Singaporean consumers preferred “lower priced fins sourced from responsible fisheries or produced using novel lab-cultured techniques” (Choy et al Despite 1.7 million tons of sharks sacrificed for this soup between 1999 and 2001 (Clark et al 2006) shark mortality could be up to four times more than estimates based on recorded shark catches Other types of fisheries often have several tons as bycatch while other sharks may be caught or killed both directly and incidentally by commercial and recreational fishermen The media portrayal of sharks in Western culture hasn’t helped either News reporting on ‘man-killers’ emphasises the truly minute number of shark bites and movies like Jaws seem to warrant the uptick in shark fishing tournaments I’ve met many surfers fearful of the presence of any sharks having our heads under the water regularly seeing the sheer number of animals on one day was overwhelming We didn’t spend too long at the market overall maybe around 30-45 minutes; that was the extent to which we could handle both the smell and the experience None of us speak an extensive amount of Bahasa nor Sasak so our engagement with the locals at the market mostly consisted of broken English and pointing at the different marine creatures It was an odd feeling – I was finally at the place I had been so desperate to get to on a vacation meant to ease my mental health I had spent hours in university and in my own time reading about this place and its impacts learning about the work different NGOs were doing to remediate the impacts of shark fishing being guided by my desire to conserve and protect these animals that made me fall in love with the ocean While it was easy to relate to Taylah’s feeling of heartbrokenness at the sight of these creatures meant to be roaming the open ocean I also could understand completely how they ended up here at least from the perspective of the locals here They were just doing what needed to be done And it just so happened this was the way that was done I’ve thought a lot about my response to the shark market It didn’t hit me in the way it affects many others On one train of thought – maybe this is what happens when we lose our intimate connection to the world around us we cannot feel the true extent of their loss as I have always valued biodiversity and had a deep desire to interact with these animals underwater On the other hand – maybe it is more an anthropological understanding These fishers are sometimes surviving day to day or month to month forced to conform in a production-based world needing to prioritise a source of income over their own physical wellbeing Or maybe it’s the impact of media these days The shock and awe reduced in an age where we are constantly exposed to the worst of humanity and our negative impacts on the world around us Whatever caused the separation between emotion and thoughts it grew in me a deep admiration for the people working to protect these species and engage fishers The initial interruption of this fishing industry can’t have been easy – convincing people who have fished this way their entire life to try to switch careers or help scientists Local scientists and conservationists working with their community to show that a different path exists If there’s one thing I’ve learned from conservation it’s that it takes an extensive amount of time and dedication to influence and see change And while it may be on an extremely small scale any step in the right direction is something to be proud of Receive the latest from Oceanographic and get 10% off your first order Enjoy 30% off your first year when joining as an annual digital subscriber The developers behind Indonesian destination Tanjung Kelayang Reserve have unveiled plans to open two new hotels on the site the 350-hectare protected reserve has been reimagined to offer an immersive escape where nature For those seeking a refined escape, Sheraton Belitung Resort blends modern luxury with Belitung’s natural beauty.

Sometimes beauty is not just about what pleases the eyes, but about things that soothe the soul. In Tanjung Selor It was still early in the evening when we set off from our accommodation to a café that was only about a ten-minute walk away but we arrived earlier than that because we had already taken the car on Thursday (16/5/2024) it felt like we had barely just gotten in the car when we had to get out again This is a common thing for first-time visitors who are not yet familiar with the area The atmosphere of Tepi Kayan Culinary Place we were greeted by bright warm light in one corner of a building that is still part of PT Pos Indonesia Tanjung Selor Several chairs arranged around a table were occupied by young people in their early twenties to late thirties enjoying their coffee while having light conversations a cafe that emerged during the pandemic and has now become one of the creative corners in Tanjung Selor Also read: The Hills of Rwanda that Bear Witness a long sofa is occupied by several people who are discussing urban dynamics while two baristas are busy taking and fulfilling orders The fragrant aroma of coffee becomes the discussion's companion stated that he established this café as one of the sparks for young people's creativity in Tanjung Selor is a journalist who later switched his profession after being captivated by coffee The atmosphere in the courtyard of Coffesomnia Elang then recruited vocational school students to become baristas or waitresses while also imparting to them the importance of dreaming big He set aside a portion of their salaries to be saved as college tuition fees there are four baristas who have continued their education to university "We are moving forward together," said Elang whose café continues to be crowded until the early hours of the morning a property entrepreneur who started his business with very minimal capital It could be said that he only relied on trust It started with a landowner who wanted to sell his asset because of medical expenses Ali couldn't afford the price of almost IDR 1 billion He then lent his savings of IDR 20 million to the person for medical treatment while waiting for his land to be sold Ali then sold the land per kaveling and it turned out to be popular his capital increased and now he employs dozens of construction workers whom he taught to invest Khaeruddin Elang Geo's Coffesomnia atmosphere Ali also published the book Property Business as Easy as a Smile Ali revealed that success cannot be separated from alms "I'm sure it will make our sustenance smoother," said Ali prefers to give it even though the amount is smaller than what he wants to borrow he is calmer because based on his experience collecting debt requires more energy than seeking equal livelihood Also read: The Universe Speaks in Ubud the dim light of Coffesomnia café felt brighter as Elang and Ali discussed their creativity an area so far from the country's economic center these two young men serve as an example that progress can start anywhere many young people in Tanjung Selor or North Kalimantan with the spirit and creativity of these two boys Passengers get off the speedboat when they arrive in Tanjung Selor one can take a fast boat from Tarakan for about one and a half hours from Pelabuhan Tengkayu with a ticket price of Rp 154,000 on Tuesday (14/5/2024) you can enjoy the twists and turns of the Kayan River from the boat's window or choose to sleep in the embrace of the cool air-conditioned cabin especially when we feel the boat is turning because it gives a different sensation It is during that time that foam can be seen splitting the water around the boat we enjoyed hot chocolate and hot coffee while snacking on fried peanuts leaving an orange color that beautified the sky The light reflects on the surface of the calm flowing river water One of his colleagues intended to fly a drone to see from above the warmth of the evening sun is enough to lift the spirit and body the cafe was staffed by Eman (18) and Rizal (18) so we can focus more on serving the guests we enjoyed warm meals at Kuliner Tepi Kayan (Kulteka) and other fried foods accompanied us as we spent the afternoon there holds many beauties as well as hopes that warm the soul One of the most barreled men on the planet Rizal Tanjung has helped define surfing in Bali I caught up with him to talk about his Momentum Generation chat group and his 1995 cover shot heard around the world And of course get his takes on the greatest aspects of surf culture The greatest thing about being a surfer in Bali? That we are here. We’ve grown up with the best, most consistent waves  in the world And we have over 15,000 islands in Indonesia And the whole world comes to Bali  and wants a piece of it And even though we have hosted well and shared our waves since the late ’60s we know the greatest thing about Bali is that the waves are ours The greatest thing about growing up with the Balinese Culture so I grew up with the Balinese culture all around me But personally I think the greatest thing was how Balinese dancing deeply influenced my surfing style it’s really important to maintaining the stories of the culture every kid in class here must learn the dance movements they teach you how to be graceful naturally from your own energy from within your heart And that training formed my expressions when I started riding waves I think it especially helped my surfing because I was tall and skinny and lanky It’s hard to be tall and skinny and to look nice on a wave Tall surfers can look really awkward if they aren’t stylish The greatest thing about raising Bronson Meidy? To watch him win Indonesia’s first world title But you gotta know we raised Bronson since he was 10 years old I saw him on that first wave down at Lakey Peak in Sumbawa where he is from and it was just a pure natural talent You could see that he had heaven’s fire on him from the beginning He had this awareness in the water and one of his earliest skills that was amazing was he could read the waves and the sets and he was always in the right place I think guys like Bronson call the waves to them Just by being in such perfect sync with the conditions all the time And so I think the greatest thing about raising him was providing the opportunity to bring out the magic in someone like that and to be a good surfer these days you gotta have more skills than just ripping So to see him grow and become a better man and to see the light in his eyes grow And that was so great for my son Varun too to have a friend and a brother and to always be pushing each other to be better surfers and better people Our family is love and a team.You can see from all the other surfers like Filipe Toledo and all the dads and moms and everyone involved And it has been great to provide that for Bronson The greatest thing about surfing Padang Padang Not having to catch a lot of waves to be satisfied It’s not about catching a lot of waves there It’s about cherry picking and reading the tides and swell and all the things that you must do to get the best one you don’t want to shoot everything that moves it’s the hunt for the greatest wave of the day Another great thing about Padang Padang is the mutual respect the Indonesians have for each other We watch and we really make sure everyone gets a chance when I’m out there we will wait for hours for the most beautiful one and we all know whose turn it is to try The greatest single surfing performance you ever saw Watching him surf you feel like your brain is going to explode and I have surfed with him in perfect waves a lot I’ve surfed on the same wave with him and no matter what you are almost nervous because you don’t want to screw up but at the same time you feel like you are just playing catch up There was this one turn he did at Padma Beach and I think it was the best single maneuver I have ever seen in my life When I saw it I asked myself what kind of human can do that Fifty-three years old…and he still has that he creates these special moments on a wave which is the best cutback ever done in history Greatest lesson you ever learned from the older generation To be welcoming to people coming to out our island And I have done this a lot of over the years all the smiles and the laughter you get here I think it’s why Bali is the biggest surfing destination in the world they taught me to remember to be humble and filled with generosity The greatest thing about that wave at Pipeline in 1995 that put you on magazine covers around the world I was 19 years old and all that excitement is felt so hard at that age Because I was waiting five and a half hours for that wave And that taught me about patience in my life Just be patient and good things can come your way I guess the greatest thing about those is that it gave me a chance to express my gratefulness for them And so that gratefulness that is such a big part of the Balinese culture had a chance to come forward in me And you know it was Liam McNamara that gave me that wave He just looked at me and nodded even though he could have had it And that taught me a lot about how to do a thing like that myself Plus I was just driving for the channel totally out of my body all I remember is being underwater for awhile The greatest thing about being mentored by Gerry Lopez Gerry showed me the ropes about how to be a surfer with style for sure but finding your style and being one with it It’s the full exposure of what is inside you you will be elegant and beautiful on a wave He taught me it is a lifetime pursuit and I know I am still trying to find that inside myself You know I was only 17 when I first stayed with him at his famous Pipeline house And I stayed there for two North Shore seasons after that So I’m very grateful that he took me under his wing back then and taught me how to look inside myself and try and find what is there The greatest thing about being one of six brothers And how to grab a leg of fried chicken off a plate real fast The greatest thing about surf tourism in Bali Like COVID and the disasters and back during the Bali bombings that was a sad time with no one around and it felt unnatural but the whole flow of surf tourism as a lifestyle to be a part of lots of friends and excitement and good times It’s like being a friend to the world when you think of how varied all your friends are how many different countries they come from But our entire Balinese surf culture was born on tourism A post shared by Evgenii Ivkov | Waves and Mountains ambassador (@surfinglens) The greatest thing about being part of the Momentum crew That’s so special when you are young And so special when it survives into your adult life I don’t think Kelly would be Kelly without all that friendship and competition within our group It was such an important time of development for us all constantly giving each other shit or congratulating each other on family and accomplishments And it is hard to believe we are all still congratulating Kelly on winning heats the industry was huge and all the magazines were paying attention and we were just riding the whole thing The greatest thing about the gnarliest wave you ever surfed You can be scared when you’re doing it Pipeline was the gnarliest wave I ever faced I mean even picking your board for the day is a big part of the spiritual journey because it’s you and that board that you are staking your life on And being out there and waiting for the one that the ocean is going to give you is hard to explain It’s there and you are just waiting for each other The greatest thing about the future of Indonesian surfing These young surfers are modernized and motivated With the success of Rio Waida and Bronson Meydi When before we were just stumbling around in the dark Surfing came to us and now we have come to surfing in Indonesia We have a whole new generation of rippers coming up and the government is recognizing us and we are on the right track to be more and more in the spotlight and on tour And more surfers here are going to be able to make a living from something as incredible as the surfing lifestyle I believe in surfing and I believe it’s going to spread from Aceh to Papua all of us on this island are really happy where surfing has taken us and where it is going to take us Heavy equipment company United Tractors recently launched a series of facilities to help boost the

content providers to this website may receive compensation for some links to products and services on this website Having a career in surfing is a surreal thing I first realized that it was possible when I was 15 years old we had a big international world junior contest at Kuta Beach and that was the moment I realized I was a good surfer pro surfers from all over the world were starting to come to Bali every summer The friendships you make are the most important part of surfing “We want you to be the first international team rider for this brand have fun and keep a smile on your face.” That was a good deal Trust is the most important thing in any relationship Bali has always had a lot of great surfers But we’ve never had a local surfer make the World Tour we have surfboard factories and obviously we have great waves What would really help Indonesia get a surfer on the CT is more government support of surfing Look at Brazil: The government in Brazil got behind competitive surfing and helped make it one of the biggest sports in the country Now they have highly rated Qualifying Series events so the surfers from Brazil have more opportunities to compete at a high level and get big points because surfing is taken seriously in Brazil That same thing happened with surfing in Australia in the ’80s We have some of the best waves in the world but not a single major [World Surf League] event I always tell the up-and-coming surfers from Indonesia that they need to make friends overseas so that they have support when they are trying to travel and compete around the world but the next generation of kids from Indonesia should do what they can to go out and see the world When you’re young and you have the opportunity to travel People are aware of the issues the environment is facing now and are working to help They need to stop making plastic or start to pay heavy taxes that can fund the cleanup process Companies that produce plastic bottles should be paying for the cleanup because they are a huge part of what’s killing the environment It’s important to remember that you are always voting with your money These companies don’t care about the environment But we can let them know how we feel about that by not purchasing their products and cutting off the demand That’s the simplest way for surfers to make a difference Indonesia’s problems go beyond the environmental issues and a lot of people without access to clean water at all Waves for Water is a good example of another way people can help — just by bringing over water filters to help give people access to good drinking water All of the new development in Indonesia has definitely changed a lot of waves They need to consult with the surfing association before they issue permits for big projects that could potentially ruin waves Just look at Nikko Right: They allowed the Kempinski Hotel to build a seawall and destroy that wave The lessons we pass to our children will determine the future I’m trying to show them how to take care of their environment so take care of it.” I’ve learned from Bali and now I want to preserve Java and make sure we don’t make the same mistakes over there I want to make sure we have better trash infrastructure and we don’t overbuild I try to just focus on what I can control at home You should use it to make a difference — to speak up One person can start a big change if they use their powers properly Our surf world needs those people right now [This feature originally appeared in SURFER 58.4, “Life & Death of Waves,” on newsstands and available for download

inauguration of four professors on Wednesday Prof Dr Mulyadi Tanjung MS was one of them The professor of biochemistry was inaugurated as the 542nd professor since UNAIR’s establishment Prof Tanjung presented his research result entitled Natural Chemical Ingredients as Medicinal Bioindustry for Health Improvement he mentioned that natural chemical ingredients were the source of knowledge to develop Science and Technology ed) has a promising prospect to be developed in Indonesia,” stated the alumni of Institut Teknologi Bandung The first born son of ten siblings also explained that Indonesia’s diversity mapping was essential to be developed in the medicinal bioindustry the diversity of secondary metabolites compounds from endemic botanicals in Indonesia was a fascinating object for the downstream medicinal bioindustry he also mentioned that this field has its challenges “It is the main challenge for chemistry scientists to achieve a systematic methodology,” said Professor Tanjung Prof Tanjung participated in the Natural Chemical Ingredients Research Group of FST and NMPRD ITD UNAIR The man born in Padang Sidempuan actively developed a quick and systematic isolation method using a conventional course he needed the NMR Spectroscopy that supports HRESIMS “The facility is available in UNAIR environment,” he revealed Prof Tanjung utilized natural ingredients that were distinctively Indonesian Mahang and kisampang were the two plants he chose to be his research object Prof Tanjung mentioned that humans truly could learn so much from nature “Indonesian forest is the philosophy of ‘nature thrives to be the teacher’ Plants have taught humans how to produce chemical ingredients for cancer cure and malaria Plants also signalled chemical compounds to interact with plants or other creatures in their surroundings,” he concluded Copyright 2021 Universitas Airlangga. All Rights Reserved.

The first one was a long-term contract from Carigali Hess to carry out maintenance The modern international airport announced by the Premier of Sarawak earlier has sparked various speculations Many have been guessing whether the airport will be built in Matang or Samarahan The major announcement by Datuk Patinggi Tan Sri Abang Johari Tun Openg on Sunday was warmly welcomed by many especially residents in the surrounding areas They hope the area will be greatly transformed when the mega project is implemented The name Tanjung Embang is set to be etched on the global map as planes from various airlines worldwide will land there are poised to profoundly influence the economy and infrastructure advancement in Samarahan The proposed construction of the new airport in Tanjung Embang is expected to offer great opportunities to stimulate the growth of this area and strengthen Sarawak’s role in the national and international air transport network Tanjung Embang is located in the heart of the Asajaya area providing easy access from major towns such as Kuching Its proximity to maritime and land trade routes makes this location strategic as a logistics hub If a bridge and other infrastructure are built from BCCK distance will not be an issue if an efficient transportation system is provided Just look at the impact of KLIA on its surrounding area I believe the same will happen to the area around the new airport By building an airport in rural areas like Tanjung Embang rapid development can be brought to the surrounding areas This means that development in the area and its surroundings will become vibrant—undoubtedly bringing positive spillover effects economically and socially to the local population is now facing capacity pressure due to the increase in passengers and cargo The new airport design will be inspired by the airport model in Doha which can accommodate 29 million passengers each year and handles all economy flights operated by Qatar Airways and flights from other airlines The terminal has been expanded several times to accommodate the yearly increase in the number of passengers used by all premium passengers of foreign airlines the Qatar Airways Gold Lounge for Qatar Airways Gold Privilege Club members and the Qatar Airways Silver Lounge for Qatar Airways Silver Privilege Club cardholders Abang Johari mentioned that air traffic in Kuching is increasing and the existing terminal building lacks sufficient facilities to accommodate the growing number of passengers it is now imperative for us to construct a new airport particularly because our goal is to establish Kuching as a central aviation hub catering not just to passengers but also to cargo The new airport can reduce congestion and offer faster services This project is expected to attract significant investments Sarawak is renowned for its ecotourism attractions An airport in Asajaya will facilitate access to these destinations increasing the presence of international tourists Tanjung Embang offers ample land for large-scale infrastructure construction without the complex land acquisition issues of densely populated urban areas Building a new airport in Tanjung Embang is anticipated to have a positive effect on property values in the nearby areas airport infrastructure typically enhances accessibility making the area more attractive for commercial and residential investments the expansion of airports typically results in the development of supplementary amenities such as roads enhancing the overall attractiveness of the area demand for properties near the airport is expected to rise due to the convenience and higher economic growth potential residents should avoid selling their land for short-term gains The construction of the new airport will create thousands of jobs throughout the construction process and later in daily operations With increased air transportation capacity exports of local products such as agricultural produce and handicrafts to international markets can be boosted Residents of Asajaya and surrounding areas will gain easier access to major cities and international destinations With the influx of modern technology and interactions with visitors from outside local communities will have opportunities to enhance their skills and knowledge To ensure the new airport meets current and future needs it should integrate green technologies such as solar energy usage and sustainable building materials to minimize environmental impact ART routes or express bus systems should be provided to connect the airport with major cities and digital check-in should be implemented to ease user experiences A terminal capable of accommodating domestic and international flights with spacious waiting areas The cargo terminal should be designed to support large-scale import-export goods movement along with storage facilities such as temperature-controlled warehouses Runways should be designed to support new-generation aircraft such as the Airbus A380 and Boeing 787 Dreamliner with the capacity to handle increased flight frequencies Modern airports need advanced emergency facilities High-speed Wi-Fi should be available throughout the airport along with mobile apps to help passengers access information such as flight schedules User-friendly designs with special pathways for the disabled and tourism information centres will enhance visitor experiences and conference spaces will attract corporate groups to make the airport a strategic meeting hub Building the airport in Tanjung Embang has the potential to reshape the Asajaya area establishing it as a key hub for growth in Sarawak this area is expected to develop into a metropolitan hub combining modern and traditional elements This development can also contribute to the state government’s mission to achieve developed status by 2030 The new airport is a strategic investment bringing significant benefits in terms of economic it will not only meet current needs but also be ready to address future challenges Careful implementation of this project and collaboration from all parties will make Sarawak more competitive globally

Asajaya are bracing for the transformation that the proposed development of a deep-sea port and a new international airport in Tanjung Embang will bring to the area They agree that the mega projects will transform the development landscape in the Asajaya and Demak Laut region Deputy Minister for Energy and Environmental Sustainability who is also Demak Laut assemblyman Datuk Dr Hazland Abang Hipni asserted that the projects would improve the peoples’ standard of living and provide more job opportunities for the youth I would like to express my gratitude and appreciation to the Sarawak Government particularly the Premier Datuk Patinggi Tan Sri Abang Johari Tun Openg for selecting Tanjung Embang for the projects,” he said in a press statement they will serve as a gift from the Sarawak Government to the residents “Thank you and congratulations to the Premier of Sarawak for selecting our area for these two major projects we never imagined that Tanjung Embang would be chosen for such big projects What is important now is that the younger generation needs to be ready,” he said is confident that the projects will not only become a reality but will also change the development landscape in the area Pauji added that while awaiting the implementation of the mega projects several small-scale development projects proposed in the area should continue The Tanjung Embang area covering 15,000 hectares is located in the Kuching Division within the Demak Laut State constituency and Santutong Parliamentary constituency It currently has seven villages: Kampung Beradek The area is close to the Demak Laut Commercial Centre and the city of Kuching transportation from the area to the city centre will be easier once the construction of the Sejingkat Bridge to connect with Tanjung Bako area is completed Tanjung Embang was originally a small village within the jurisdiction of Kampung Beradek The name Tanjung Embang was changed to Kampung Tiang Api after two Lighthouse towers were built in the area in the late 1960s The two lighthouse towers are still operational today providing safety signals to ships entering or leaving the Sarawak River heading towards the South China Sea at night Premier Datuk Patinggi Tan Sri Abang Johari Tun Openg had explained the reasons why Tanjung Embang was selected as the new Kuching International Airport saying that aircrafts would not need to fly over foreign air space while landing and departing from the airport the construction of the deep-sea port is aimed at accommodating large ships to dock for loading and unloading of goods as existing ports in Sarawak cannot handle large vessels and are unable to meet the frequency of ship calls to Sarawak,” he said He advised residents in the Dernak Laut area to prepare for the arrival of these development projects while urging them to equip themselves with knowledge and skills to meet the future labour requirements Lloyd's List is part of Maritime

Engineering Higher Education (PTTI) Institut Teknologi Bandung (ITB) conduct a series of activities such as international conference and other activities such as public lectures and Studium Generale These bring ITB to be the pioneer of Engineering Higher Education in Indonesia that envision Entrepreneurial University One of the activity was a Studium Generale public lecture which carried “Entrepreneurship” as the theme and was conducted on Saturday (21/04/18) used to serve as The Coordinating Minister for Economics of Indonesia ad interim Minister of Forestry and Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources under former president Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono.The theme “Entrepreneurship” is in line with the vision of ITB that shifts from Research University to Entrepreneurial University This shifts is perceived as a good start by Chairul Tanjung because research and technology will not be developed without Entrepreneurial skill Entrepreneur becomes a main part besides research and knowledge,” he said.The Studium Generale opened with a remark from Rector of ITB Kadarsah Suryadi who warmly welcomed Chairul Tanjung to ITB Kadarsah Suryadi expressed his sincere thanks to Chairul Tanjung who took his time to visit and share his knowledge and experience to ITB students He also hoped the public lecture could support ITB’s vision in producing Entrepreneur graduates that contribute to the nation and people.At the beginning of the lecture a short film was played about Chairul’s profile and past strive and how he changed his family’s economic condition he mentioned about the different between the past and the present about forty years ago in 1981 in Universitas Indonesia I’m the one and only businessman in the university A businessman that time did not have rivals being a businessman or entrepreneur was not a profession to be proud of.” He then compared past situation with today’s situation economic activities is currently dominated by “Generation X” a group of generation aged 25-45 years old But it is predicted that 10 to 20 years ahead a generation that grow up when technology develops rapidly and information could be accessed easily Millennials tend to be more consumptive and thus has to be balanced with the growth of entrepreneur Development of technology that leads to works mechanization will replace thousands of human workers with machines hence the need for people with capability to create thousands of works through entrepreneurship.Creating EntrepreneurAccording to CT entrepreneur could both be born and be created He told a story about how he ‘was created’ to be an entrepreneur because he felt responsible for his family’s economic condition He also added that being an entrepreneur is about how an individual see available opportunity.“Everyone can be an entrepreneur that’s the basic of entrepreneurship,” he then added Chairul Tanjung then affirmed that a business do not need to be based on interest or educational background exemplifying himself who came from dentistry background.“Everyone has the right to be an entrepreneur and everyone has the chance to be successful as an entrepreneur,” he said He added that everyone can start doing a business without money “Money is not the main capital of becoming an entrepreneur Entrepreneurs also have to be accustomed to rise and fall So it’s not true if an entrepreneur has to have money capital”.He continued “An entrepreneur should be a lovable person because it (entrepreneurship) needs knowledge All of these are accumulated to be capital,” he said.At the end of his lecture Chairul Tanjung explained what he calls “CT Ways” the way he passed through to become a successful entrepreneur being pragmatic and being idealistic are not oil and water seek the blessing of the God,” he ended.Some things that he emphasized are to “buy future with present value” or seeing future needs that can be developed today and to keep on working hard to get more
