INDONESIA

JAKARTA, 23 JANUARY 2007
BACKGROUND

 EARLY-WARNING INFORMATION DISEMINATION ON

CALAMITY IS IN PRINCIPLE A RESPONSIBILITY THAT
RESTS ON THE HAND OF COMPETENT INSTITUTIONS
TO CONVEY IMPORTANT INFORMATION TO THE
PEOPLE.
 BY THIS EARLY WARNING INFORMATION, IT IS
EXPECTED THAT ALL RELATED COMPONENTS
CONCERNED, PARTICULARLY MEMBERS OF SOCIETY,
CAN IMMEDIATELY TAKE NECESSARY ACTIONS
PRIOR TO PROSPECTIVE CALAMITY MAY OCCUR.
 BY RECEIVING THE EARLY WARNING INFORMATION,
MATERIAL AND NON-MATERIALS CAN BE AVOIDED
AND MINIMIZED.
 EARLY-WARNING INFORMATION
DISEMINATION
ON CALAMITY IN INDONESIA
THE EARLY - WARNING INFORMATION
DISEMINATION IN INDONESIA IS VERY
CRUCIAL TO DO CONSIDERING :

1. MOST INDONESIANS HAVE NO COMPLETE

KNOWLEDGE YET ON HOW AND WHAT NECESSARY
ACTIONS OR STEPS THEY SHOULD TAKE WHEN A
CALAMITY OR DISASTER IS TAKING PLACE.
2. INDONESIA, BEING A RATHER NATURAL DISASTER-
PRONE REGION, DOES NOT HAVE AVAILABLE
SYSTEM OF INFORMATION, AND STANDARDS IN
MANAGING A DISASATER RIGHTLY.
3. MOST INDONESIANS, PARTICULARLY THOSE WHO
LIVE IN TSUNAMI-RIDDEN AREAS, HAD NO
PREVIOUSLY EXPERIENCES OF A TSUNAMI-LIKE
DISASTER.
4. ACCESSIBILITY AND CAPACITY OF THE PEOPLE TO
HAVE RELATED OR EVEN NOTHING.
 PROBLEMS TO FACE :

 ACTS GOVERNING ALL ABOUT CALAMITY ARE NOT

AVAILABLE YET;

 MANAGEMENT OF EARLY- WARNING INFORMATION

ON CALAMITY HAS NOT OPTIMALLY BEEN
ADMINISTERED;

 SYSTEM OF EARLY- WARNING INFORMATION

DISEMINATION ON CALAMITY ( TSUNAMI ) HAS
NEVER BEEN APPLIED IN INDONESIA.

 STANDARD OF THE EARLY-WARNING INFORMATION

DISEEMINATION SYSTEM AND PROCEDURE, AND OF
THE EVACUATION PROCEDURE IN HADLING THE
OCCURANCE OF TSUNAMI CALAMITY, ARE NOT
AVAILABLE; AND

 IMPROPER OF MEANS AND INFRASTRUCTURE FOR

DISSEMINATING EARLY-WARNING INFORMATION,
IN COPING WITH THE EXISTING PROBLEMS, AND BY TAKING
CURRENT POTENTIAL OPPORTUNITIES THE COUNTRY HAS
INTO ACCOUNT, EFFORTS TO BE POSSIBLY EXECUTED ARE :

• TO BUILD MORE SOLID, COMPACT AND

INTEGRATED COMMUNICATIONS NETWORKS.
• TO IMPROVE CAPACITY OF INFORMATION AND
COMMUNICATIONS INFRASTRUCTURE.
• TO ESTABLISH HOT-LINE COMMUNICATIONS
BETWEEN BROADCASTING INSTITUTIONS AND
TELECOMMUNICATIONS OPERATORS AND
DISASTER INFORMATION CENTRES
• TO SYNERGIZE ALL BROADCASTING
ORGANIZATIONS TO PREPARE INFORMATION
INSERTS SUCH BRAEKING NEWS, TELEXS, ETC,
WHEN A DISASTER WILL HAPPEN AND IS
HAPPENING.
• TO PROVIDE EDUCATION TO THE PEOPLE IN THE
CONTEXT OF ANTICIPATING DISASTER THROUGH
VARIOUS TRAINING PROGRAMS.
 THE CALAMITY MANAGEMENT IN
INDONESIA

• THE CALAMITY MANAGEMENT IS COORDINATED BY

THE COORDINATING AGENCY FOR NATIONAL DISASTER
MANAGEMENT ( BAKORNAS PB ).
• IN CASE OF TSUNAMI DISASTER THAT REQUIRES
EXTRAORDINARY SPEEDY ACTIONS, ITS MANAGERIAL
PROCEDURE AND MECHANISM DO HAVE SPECIAL
DIFFERENT CHARACTERISTICS.
• IT SHOULD APPLY AN EFFICIENT MECHANISM AND
PROSEDURE OF INFORMATION FLOW, WITHOUT
NEGLECTING THE ACCURACY, AND IN TIME AND
SPEEDY DISTRIBUTION OF THE INFORMATION.
 NATIONAL EARLY-WARNING
INFORMATION SYSTEM :
( TWO PLANNED EARLY-WARNING INFORMATION
SYSTEM )
• AT NATIONAL LEVEL SYSTEM, INFORMATION MOVES FROM
DISASTER INFORMATION CENTRE OR BMG DIRECTLY TO
VARIOUS BROADCASTING STATIOS ( TELEVISIONS AND RADIO ),
CELLULAR OPERATORS, THE POLICE OFFICE, THE OFFICE OF
LOCAL ADMINISTRATIONS, AND OTHER UNITS WHICH ARE ABLE
TO BE SYNERGIZED ( ORARI – RAPI )

• AT LOCAL LEVEL SYSTEM, INFORMATION MOVES FROM

DISASTER INFORMATION CENTRE OR LOCAL BMG TO LOCAL
BROADCASTING STATIONS, TO COMMUNITY’S CENTRES, LOCAL
OFFICES OF THE POLICE, AND OTHER UNITS THAT CAN BE
SYNERGIZED ( ORARI – RAPI – INFOKOM )

THE DISEMINATION PATTERN BEGINS WHEN A PROCESS OF HIGH

TECHNOLOGY DATA HAD BEEN TRANSFERRED (“THE LAST MILE” ) TO
BE AN OFFICIAL INFORMATION. FROM THIS MOMENT THE
INFORMATION THEN DISEMINATED THROUGH TV AND RADIO STATIONS,
CELLULAR OPERATORS, THE POLICE, OFFICE OF LOCAL
ADMINISTRATIONS, SIRENS, BELLS, LOUDSPEAKERS, DISPLAYS,

warning information system it has nowdays, it is expected that the DONOR
COUNTRIES or international fund institutions can provide both technical and
financial assistance, for :

WARNING INFORMATION DISSEMINATION INSTRUMENTS’ CAPACITY AT
EARTHQUAKE INFORMATION CENTRE IN WHICH THE INFORMATION
CAN BE RECEIVED PROPERLY BY TV AND RADIO STATIONS, MOBILE
TELEPHONE OPERATORS, INTERNET OPERATORS, MOBILE UNIT,
SIRENS, AND OTHER CONVENSIONAL MEANS DOERS.

• IMPROVEMENT OF CAPACITY OF ERALY-WARNING INFORMATION

DISSEMINATION MEANS AND INFRASTRUCTURE, PARTICULARLY FOR
DIASATER-PRONE AREAS (I.E EARLY-WARNING INFORMATION MOBILE
UNITS, EARLY – WARNING RADIO RESEIVERS, SIRENS, AND ATHER
EQUIPMENTS RELATED TO RECEIVING OF EW INFORMATION

• PROMOTION OF HUMAN RESOURCES’ CAPABILITY IN MANAGING EARLY

WARNING INFORMATION DISSEMINATION, OF EITHER HUMAN
