Natural Disasters Between 25 - 29 January 2012, Tropical cyclone

Iggy occurred in the Indian Ocean south of West Java, causing 15 fatalities and 60 injuries, along with

damage to an estimated 2,364 houses in 35 districts/cities in Java and Bali. The cyclone triggered

heavy rains and whirlwinds in the islands stretching from southern Lampung to southern Arafuru Sea.

Reports indicate that three people were killed in Tabanan, three in Purbalingga and two each in Kediri

and Banyumas. South Jakarta, Wonosobo, Ciamis, Pasuruan, Karangasem, and Serang each reported

single casualties. Whirlwinds caused severe damage to 123 houses in Kelapa, Kelapa Dua and Harapan

islands in One Thousand Islands District of Jakarta, which was the most seriously affected.

Elsewhere, three people were killed and thousands of families temporarily displaced by floods in several

parts of the country beginning on 14 January. Worst affected were the districts of Lebak (9,100 families

across 63 villages), Serang (2,723 families across 45 villages), Pandeglang (10,649 families across 34

villages) and Tangerang (4,128 families across 19 villages). The flooding prompted authorities to

declare a two-week local emergency. On 26 January, Tangerang District experienced another flood that

severely damaged 71 houses in Kresek sub-district; an additional 235 houses suffered light damage. In West

Java, high tides caused the flooding of tens of houses in Sukabumi District, while flash floods on 29 January led to hundreds of houses being inundated across

three sub-districts in Sumba Besar in West Nusa Tenggara. The Meteorology,Climatology and

Geophysics Agency (BMKG) in conjunction with the Water Resource Office and the National Mapping

Agency had earlier forecasted rains and a high possibilty of floods in several areas across the

country during January 2012.

Landslides also occurred in January, causing a few

casualties and impacting access to some areas. One death was reported on 28 January in Bali, while South

Sumatra recorded two casualties on 19 January.

Bencana Alam Antara tanggal 25-29 Januari 2012, siklon tropis

Iggy terjadi di Samudera Hindia bagian selatan Jawa Barat, menyebabkan 15 korban jiwa dan 60 cedera,

ditambah kerusakan pada 2.364 rumah yang diperkirakan terjadi di 35 kabupaten / kota di Jawa

dan Bali. Topan tersebut dipicu oleh hujan deras dan angin puting beliung di pulau-pulau yang membentang

dari Lampung Selatan hingga Laut Arafuru Selatan. Berdasarkan laporan, tiga orang tewas di Tabanan,

tiga di Purbalingga dan dua masing-masing di Kediri dan Banyumas. Satu orang menjadi korban masing-

masing di Jakarta Selatan, Wonosobo, Ciamis, Pasuruan, Karangasem, dan Serang. Angin puting

beliung menyebabkan kerusakan parah pada 123 rumah di Pulau Kelapa, Pulau Kelapa Dua dan Pulau Harapan di Kepulauan Seribu, Kabupaten Jakarta, yang

terkena dampak paling serius.

Di tempat lain, tiga orang tewas dan ribuan keluarga mengungsi sementara akibat banjir yang terjadi di

beberapa bagian didaerah pada 14 Januari. Dampak yang terparah adalah di Kabupaten Lebak (9.100

keluarga di 63 desa), Serang (2.723 keluarga di 45 desa), Pandeglang (10.469 keluarga di 34 desa) dan

Tangerang (4.128 keluarga di 19 desa). Peristiwa banjir tersebut memicu Pemerintah untuk menyatakan

keadaan lokal darurat selama dua minggu. Pada tanggal 26 January, Kabupaten Tangerang mengalami

banjir mengakibatkan 71 rumah rusak berat di Kecamatan Kresek, dengan 235 rumah lainnya

mengalami kerusakan ringan. Di Jawa Barat, gelombang air laut tinggi melanda puluhan rumah di Kabupaten Sukabumi, sedangkan banjir bandang pada

29 January menyebabkan ratusan rumah terendam di tiga Kecamatan di Sumba Besar di Nusa Tenggara

Barat. Badan Metereologi, Klimatologi dan Geofisika (BMKG) yang berkerja sama dengan Kantor Sumber

Daya Air dan Badan Koordinasi Survey dan Pemetaan Nasional sebelumnya memperkirakan hujan dan

kemungkinan banjir yang tinggi di beberapa daerah selama bulan Januari 2012.

Tanah longsor juga terjadi pada bulan Januari,

menyebabkan beberapa korban dan berdampak pada akses ke beberapa daerah. Satu kematian dilaporkan

pada tanggal 28 Januari di Bali, sedangkan di Sumatera Selatan tercatat dua korban pada tanggal 19 Januari.

On 8 January, landslides in Sukabumi District of West Java caused two casualties and a corresponding

number of injuries. On the same day, high-intensity rains triggered landslides in the in the high hills of

Tembalang sub-district of Semarang City in Central Java, prompting the temporary evacuation of

residents of surrounding areas. Also in Central Java, landslides on 4 January cut off the main access road

between two villages in Pekalongan District. Other areas experiencing landslides during the month

included Waingapu sub-district of Sumba Timur( East Nusa Tenggara) where one death and one injury

were reported on 7 January, and Limapuluh Kota District of West Sumatra, which experienced a

similar toll.

During the month, an earthquake measuring 6.3 on the Richter Scale and with a depth of 124 km struck

48 km off Southwest Manggarai Barat, West Nusa Tenggara on 21 January. The earthquake caused light-

to-medium damage to 398 houses, slight damage to 15 schools, one hospital and a community health

centre in seven villages of Manggarai Barat District. No fatalities or displacements were reported. Thirty

two earthquakes measuring 5.0 or above on Richter Scale (RS) occured across the country during January.

Meanwhile, owing to decreased volcanic activity at Mt. Gamalama in North Maluku and Mt. Ile Lewotolo in East Nusa Tenggara, the Volcanology and Geology

Disaster Mitigation Agency (PVMBG) decreased their alert levels from 3 to 2 during the month. As of the

end of January, there were four volcanoes with alert level 3 and 20 volcanoes on alert level 2.1

Disaster Preparedness and Risk Reduction (DRR)

During the month, the National Agency for Disaster Management (BNPB) with support from the

Contingency Plan Working Group comprising donors, NGOs, the Red Cross Movement and the

UN finalized contingency plans for DKI Jakarta, West and East Java (floods), and Yogyakarta (cold lava floods).

1 4 is the highest alert level and 1 is the lowest

Pada tanggal 8 Januari, terjadi longsor di Sukabumi, Kabupaten Jawa Barat menyebabkan dua korban dan

sejumlah orang cedera. Pada hari yang sama, hujan dengan intensitas tinggi memicu tanah longsor di

perbukitan tinggi Kecamatan Tembalang, Kota Semarang di Jawa Tengah, yang menyebabkan evakuasi

sementara bagi warga sekitar. Di Jawa Tengah juga terjadi tanah longsor pada tanggal 4 Januari yang

memotong akses jalan utama antara dua desa di Kabupaten Pekalongan. Daerah lain yang mengalami

tanah longsor selama bulan ini termasuk Kecamatan Waingapu, Sumba Timur (Nusa Tenggara Timur),

Manggarai Barat. Tidak ada korban jiwa atau pengungsian yang dilaporkan. Sebanyak 32 gempabumi

berkekuatan 5,0 atau lebih terjadi di berbagai daerah selama bulan January.

Sementara itu, penurunan aktivitas vulkanik gunung

Gamalama di Sulawesi Utara dan Gunung Ile Lewotolo di Nusa Tenggara Timur menyebabkan

Pusat Vulkanologi dan Mitigasi Bencana Geologi (PVMBG) menurunkan tingkat kewaspadaan dari

tingkat 3 menjadi tingkat 2 selama sebulan ini. Pada akhir bulan Januari, ada empat gunung berapi dengan gunung berapi tingkat 3 dan 20 gunung berapi lainnya

berada pada tingkat 2.

Kesiapsiagaan Bencana dan Pengurangan

Resiko (PRB) Selama bulan itu, Badan Nasional Penanggulangan

Bencana (BNPB) dengan dukungan dari Kelompok Kerja Rencana Kontingensi yang terdiri dari donor,

LSM, Gerakan Palang Merah dan PBB menyelesaikan rencana kontingensi untuk DKI Jakarta, Jawa Barat

dan Timur (banjir), dan Yogyakarta (banjir lahar dingin).
