Mount Bromo is usually crowded by tourists are now deserted. Travelers can only see him from the area in the village Penanjakan Wonokitri, Pasuruan District, or in the Village Ngadisari, Probolinggo district.

On the other hand, Hamlet Cemorolawang, Ngadisari Village, crowded by the police, army, disaster management agency officials, and journalists. The din of this occurred after the status of Mount Bromo in the day raised two levels, be alert, Tuesday (23/11) morning, and Caution in the afternoon.

The move comes after an increase in activity of volcanic earthquakes. Throughout November 1 to 23 occurred more than a thousand volcanic earthquakes. On 23 November, said Chief Observation Post Mount Bromo Muhammad Shafi, recorded 20 shallow volcanic earthquakes with an amplitude of 10-40 mm and 40-30 mm amplitude tremor.



Wednesday starting at 0:00 until 9:52 pm starting 18 volcanic earthquakes with amplitude of 8-38 mm and 2-5 mm maximum amplitude tremor. "Graph volcanic energy that there is also increasing. Beware status and therefore we still recommend 2.5 miles-3 miles, especially the sea of ​​sand, sterile from residents or tourists, "said Shafi.
Contrast with excitement, the Tengger people remain calm. Activity planting potatoes, cabbage plant care and scallions, as well as taking care of horses still acted as usual.



"Saben Friday Legi diselameti, ngangge porridge gangsal didongani quack pack. Sing dipadosi Niku keselametan (Every Friday Legi salvation held by the five types of porridge that shamans prayed pack. Yang sought safety), "said Newi.

Similar things delivered Pendiko (38), the seller gloves and headgear in the vicinity of Bromo tour, and Supri (22), pengojek motor. Both villagers believe Ngadisari Bromo eruption will not harm people.

Eruptions of Mount Bromo, as happened on June 8, 2004, never touched the Village Ngadisari although only about 2.5 meters of Mount Bromo. Generally, volcanic material out around the oceans of sand or more Nangkajajar leads to, Pasuruan.

Monitors Mount Bromo, Subhan Ahmad, better see the shape of the crater's neck as a natural protector of citizens. Mount Bromo is a bit skewed towards Pasuruan. Therefore, during these eruptions or bursts of smoke Nangkajajar leads to, Pasuruan, and not to villages or Tengger in Probolinggo, Malang.

According to the Chairman of the Tengger Mudjono Shaman (60), Mount Bromo Tengger people is where the ancestors. Therefore, it can be regarded as citizens of the Tengger protector. Moreover, people always try to honor their ancestors by taking a ritual offering at the time Kasada crops as well as offering every Friday.

If Bromo eruption, said Mbah Mbah Mudjo Mudjono-familiar call-that the will of nature. Hubbub occurred only among the public outside the Tengger residents, while residents at ease. Departure ceremony was held a small army a few days ago. It was held after Mbah Mudjo talks with many shamans in Malang, Lumajang, Pasuruan, and Probolinggo.



Despite the resignation, the Tengger people rather than typical citizens who do not seek. Permanent establishment is run. However, if the Observation Post Mount Bromo Center for Volcanology and Geological Hazard Mitigation give a plea to evacuate, residents asked to obey the injunction.

Shafi also could not confirm whether Mount Bromo will erupt or calm. However, vigilance must be increased because the conditions ahead of the eruption in 2004 is very different from today. First, not detected many earthquakes before the eruption. Now, more than a thousand earthquakes occur in less than a month.

Twitter Disaster

Twitter Disaster
executive summary by darmansjah godjali

Sad that we live under constant threat of disaster. And, this is our fate to always be alert to face the threat of disasters simultaneously and need to work closely in order to assist and relieve the burden of those who were knocked out of his house.

Appreciation must be given to all the volunteers who try constantly to use information communication technology advances such as Tim Airputih, Indosat IM2 Team, and others who are always ready to be in the disaster area using information communication technology to disseminate information linking with areas outside the disaster area.

By the time a disaster occurs simultaneously in several places, it would be a serious problem for us how to empower the understanding and information communications technology equipment that we have to be efficient rollout.

With the catastrophic eruption of Mount Merapi in Central Java and a tsunami in the Mentawai Islands, a lot of issues that arise when we must hold the information communication technology in places difficult to reach and full of threats caused by natural disaster itself.



The disaster that will constantly siphon various resources that we have so that it should be considered a long-term strategy by conducting various studies and analysis, as well as predicting the steps and use of resources in the event of natural disasters simultaneously at various places in Indonesia.

One technology that is available and highly efficient is Twitter, a social networking and digital are very popular forms of information dissemination is very efficient, fast, and inexpensive. A variety of information ranging from dissemination to the purposes of aid, spread quickly among Twitter users who number tens of thousands throughout Indonesia.

We also hope that the bureaucracy is responsible for using the budget is taken from the tax you pay can also do dissemination, coordination, and implementation of disaster management in a timely, efficient, and inexpensive. Not working office moved to the disaster areas and trouble many people.

Since the great tsunami disaster in Aceh, have many lessons to be learned to anticipate the various disasters that might arise at any time anywhere in Indonesia. Twitter as a communication system is the right choice cope with disasters that should also be used by bureaucrats.
