Populasi harimau Sumatra kian hari makin langka dan bisa dikatakan mulai punah. Menurut data Konservasi Sumber Daya Alam (KSDA) populasi harimau Sumatra saat ini sekitar 100 ekor yang masih tersisa. Ini terjadi akibat adanya perburuan liar maupun yang mati karena konflik dengan masyarakat. Sangat disayangkan bahwa harimau merupakan salah satu ekosistem penyeimbang hutan yang tidak disadari [...]

Since long before, South Sumatra has been known with its traditional crafts like weaving, plaiting, wood carving, ceramics and metal-craft. Hereditary, these art craft has not change much. It is caused by the fact that most of those products are utilized as equipments in the adapt ceremonies.It has been mentioned about the tradition to decorate the adapt-house with wood-carving. This wood carving art does not only produce home decoration, but also furniture. Characteristics of South Sumatra wood carving art, especially that of Palembang, is the density and excessiveness of the decoration with see through technique using plant-motives with symbolism. The decorative impression is more conspicuous due to the application of different colours on the decoration. The most popular colours are gold

The Hills Hotel (previously Novotel Hotel) is a great hotel. The building itself located not far from Jam Gadang (the symbol of City of Bukittinggi, remember the Big Ben in London...?), maybe it's only 5 minutes walk. Also you can see Ngarai Sianok from your back window at your hotel room (no Air Conditioner...?).I'm sure you can see the uniqueness of this clock tower, different from any kind of clock that we used to see. See something different...?I went to Jambi and West Sumatra not for fun but for work therefore we didn't have much time to explore the whole city. But then, we still had a chance to took pictures in Jam Gadang area. Most of the time, I was the photographer (puke mode: on).First, here's some pictures of The Hills Hotel.Then, here's some pictures of Jam Gadang at night, inc

Tourism in West Sumatra is not only Singkarak Lake, City of Sawahlunto and City of Bukittinggi. In Kabupaten Tanah Datar you can find more tourism spots including Istano Pagarayung, Lembah Anai and Tabek Patah. Ready to explore...?1. Istano Pagaruyung (Pagaruyung Grand Palace)Located in Nagari Pagaruyung Kecamatan Tanjung Emas. Pagaruyung is also the Center of Government Affairs of Kabupaten Tanah Datar. Five km driving from Batusangkar City Center. This tourism spot is the main tourism objective in Kabupaten Tanah Datar. The Pagaruyung Grand Palace was built in 1976 as a duplicate of the palace of Rajo Alam which was burned down by the Dutch Colony in 1804. This big traditional Palace has 11 horns (Gonjong), 72 piles and 3 floors, surrounded by Surau (small mosque), Tabuah (drum) and Rang

After exploring Jambi (actually I went to Jambi not for fun, I went there to work :)), I also try to know how beautiful West Sumatra is (again, it was not for fun :)). I brought my mind, body and soul to Sawahlunto City, Solok City, Singkarak Lake, Padang Pajang City, Bukittinggi City, Batusangkar City and Padang City (the Capital City of West Sumatra). It's all beautiful indeed.Now, I want to share my stories of my trips to these gorgeous places:1. Singkarak Lake; 2. Sawahlunto City; and 3. Bukittinggi City, let's start with Singkarak Lake.Singkarak Lake ("Danau Singkarak" in Bahasa) is a wrench driven-pull-apart basin lake according to the explanation from one of the master in Geology of Indonesia. It's a product of Sumatra Fault at Neogene-Recent age.In term of travel & tourism, Sin

My last destination, before flew back to Jakarta, was Bukittinggi. Driving 3 to 4 hours from Padang to the northeast direction. There are several routes to go there, you can pass Padang Panjang then Bukittinggi or you can do a detour via Solok-Singkarang Lake-Padang Panjang then Bukittingi. If Bukittinggi is your one and only destination, I suggest you to take the first route.On the way from Padang to Bukittinggi you will find, on your left hand side, one beautiful waterfall called "Lembah Anai". It's an outcrop of lava with columnar joints, IMO, and it's a perfect spot to take pictures specially because there is also a unique railway across the waterfall.The word "Bukittinggi" came from two words: "Bukit" (hill) and "Tinggi" (high) which mean "a city on a high hill". Since it's located on

One of the city in West Sumatra that got my attention is Sawahlunto. Sawahlunto is only 4 hours drive from Padang, the Capital City of West Sumatra. And before Sawahlunto you will pass Solok City, another city.Why Sawahlunto City got my attention...? To enter this city, you have to drive through the hills. Once you pass the hills, you will see a beautiful scenery, a gorgeous view of Sawahlunto the city. You can see, in seconds, almost the whole area of the city on your bird eye view.Another reason is, in my opinion, Sawahlunto is almost similar to Bandung (my beloved hometown). Bandung is relatively a small town, surrounded by hills in every direction. It's a basin, used to be a lake. Sawahlunto also a small town that surrounded by hills. Maybe it's Bandung in a smaller scale with a simila

Firefighters battled dozens of land-clearing blazes in western Indonesia on Wednesday, officials said, as thick clouds of choking haze spread across parts of the region. Donny Osmon, the head of the local firefighting agency, said farmers and agricultural companies began setting the fires on Sumatra island on Sunday, at the start of the dry season, to clear brush and peat land. Haze from forest fires has become a major problem for large parts of Southeast Asia over the last 10 years and is a source of tension with Malaysia and Singapore, where air quality levels are drastically worsened because of the smoke.

Miyamoto International's President and Chief Structural Engineer is en route to the epicenter of the M6.3 Indonesian earthquake that struck on March 6, 2007. Centered near the city of Padang, on the west side of the island of Sumatra, the earthquake caused extensive damage to buildings and lifelines throughout the region. To date, the earthquake and its many aftershocks have collapsed over 100 buildings and killed over 70 people. The trip is being coordinated by the Minister of Public Works on Investment and Economic Affairs of Indonesia. The intent of Kit Miyamoto's reconnaissance is to collect data on the earthquake's impact on infrastructure, buildings and utilities. Besides observing damage, he will also study structures that survived -- to better understand what works and how we can apply that knowledge to designing safer buildings in California. While there, Kit Miyamoto will also meet with local government and building officials to review seismic design and construction pract

El temblor, con una magnitud de 6.3 grados en la escala de Richter, ha sido percibido en otros países como Malasia y Singapur, en donde algunos edificios gubernamentales han sido evacuados.

An earthquake measuring 5.8 on the Richter scale shook Indonesia's Sumatra island, panicking residents in West Sumatra province and sending slight tremors to neighbouring Singapore. The United States Geological Survey said the quake's magnitude was 6.3 and its epicentre was around 420km from Singapore.Callers told a Jakarta-based radio station that residents in several West Sumatra towns ran out of their houses when the quake was first felt.
