Overview
A powerful earthquake measuring 6.3
on the Richter scale struck IndonesiaÕs Yogyakarta and Central Java provinces
on the island of Java on May 27 at 5:53 AM local time (Friday, May 26 at 22:53
UTC), killing thousands of people and causing widespread loss to infrastructure
and property. According to the USGS
(US Geological Survey), the quakeÕs epicenter was 10 miles (15 kilometers)
south of Yogyakarta at a depth of 6.2 miles (10 kilometers). The districts of Bantul, Klaten, Sleman
and the city of Yogyakarta are among the worst affected in terms of loss of
life. The
official death toll reportedly provided by SATKORLAK on June 7 stood at 5,865,
and the number of injured at 37,921. According to SATKORLAK, 398,548 homes have been either
damaged or destroyed. Per OCHA, GOI has issued a deadline for
its staff to reconcile and finalize its figures for dead, injured,
hospitalized, displaced, as well as figures on damage to housing and
infrastructure by June 14. According
to the World Health Organization (WHO), which is supporting IndonesiaÕs
Ministry of Health (MoH), patients are being treated in 48 hospitals, plus
field hospitals, health centers, and mobile clinics. The World Health Organization (WHO) says infectious disease
remains a risk because of the crowded nature of the affected area, but the UN
agency was not expecting an epidemic. The US Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) is setting up an active case surveillance team station in all
affected hospitals and strategic sites linking with the mobile and
International organizational teams.
WHO says as many as 32,000 emergency toilets are needed in Yogyakarta,
and there were plans to provide 20,000 units leaving a gap of 12,000 units that
remains to be filled urgently. According to media reports, GOI
has revised upward its number of homeless to more than 343,000. However, the estimates for displaced
people are still being assessed.
Family tents are needed to accommodate the homeless. Most of the displaced are reported to
be living in makeshift shelters. The
need for IDP site management at informal camps in Klaten and Sleman is becoming
critical as these are already packed, and additional Merapi evacuees continue
to arrive each day. GOI officials
say some 200,000 tents were needed for temporary shelter.
Downed electric
and telephone services have been almost completely restored. Some 450 of the 457 transformers are
back online, while remaining seven are being repaired. According to WFP overall logistics infrastructure is
sound. Both Solo and Yogyakarta
airports are open. Yogyakarta airport
remains close at night for some repair work on the main runway. All main supply
routes are passable. However,
heavy vehicular traffic on the roads is causing some delays. Trucking and
warehousing continue to be the main logistics concern. Close cooperation between WFP, IOM,
Atlas Logistique and IFRC continues to generally meet these challenges.
The Indonesian
government has declared a state of emergency and has allocated US$115 million for
relief efforts. US$10 million will
be used for emergency response, while the other US$105 million will be used for
rehabilitation and reconstruction.
The National Development Planning Agency Republic of Indonesia
(BAPPENAS), in conjunction with the World Bank is conducting damage and loss
assessment to be presented to the Consultative Group on Indonesia due to meet
on June 14 in Jakarta. According to some Indonesian officials,
the cost of rebuilding quake-affected central Java region could be as much as
US$533.5 million. President Susilo
Bambang Yudhoyono has reportedly moved his office to Yogyakarta to monitor
relief efforts on the ground closely.
The Indonesian government has not formally issued a call for
international assistance, however, it is welcoming international
assistance. According to media
reports, some GOI officials have hinted that unlike in Aceh, no special agency
for the reconstruction and rehabilitation of the quake-affected areas would be
established. According to OCHA,
the GOI plans to shorten the period of emergency response and start early
recovery after one month. (June 3,
OCHA) The UN estimates quake-hit
areas will take up to two more weeks before being out of the emergency phase of
recovery, but survivors will need help for many months after.
Both domestic
and international relief supplies have begun to arrive in the affected
area. Antibiotics, anesthetics,
orthopedics, food, water, blankets and tents are the most urgent needs. BAKORNAS is coordinating international
relief assistance at the country level, while the provincial-level Disaster
Management Board (SATKORLAK) is working at the provincial level. A 7-member United Nations Disaster
Assessment and Coordination (UNDAC) team is divided into 3 sub-teams under the
leadership of Rajan Gengaje. The
United Nations on Friday, (June 2) launched a US$103 million Emergency Response
Action Plan for the earthquake-affected areas to cover the immediate needs for
the next six months. According to
the UNÕs Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), half of
the funds should go toward emergency shelter. More than 50 international and indigenous relief NGOs are on
the ground. At least 22
governments have responded with financial assistance, in-kind material
assistance and relief personnel. Charlie
Higgins, UN team leader in Yogyakarta, says that the Indonesian government
should be able to handle the aid situation without the UN taking a lead role.
Aid workers say
a major eruption of Mount Merapi as result of recent activity could possibly
displace one million people. Merapi has shown increased activity since the quake. Dome of volcano has
now swelled to 330 feet (100m), raising fears that it might collapse and could
send searing-hot clouds of gas and debris pouring down the slopes into
inhabited areas. The lava dome,
which currently stands at about 3 million cubic meters (3.92 million cubic
yards), is growing more than 100,000 cubic meters (130,000 cubic yards) a
day. Merapi activity alert remains
at the highest level. The Center
of Volcanology and Geological Hazard has recommended nearby communities to be
evacuated to avoid the danger of pyroclastic surges.
Amanda Pitt from the United
Nations coordination office in Yogyakarta is saying, ÒOverall relief operations
continue in full swing in all areas—food, shelter, sanitation, water etc.Ó She said developments on Mount Merapi
were being considered as part of the overall emergency response plan in the
quake-affected region. She said,
ÒThe UN system, humanitarian organizations, everybody is working on these two
things together. They have an eye
on the Merapi as well (as the quake area) and everyone is well aware of
it.Ó
