Galunggung Crater Rift


CIAMIS (BP) - More than 1910 affected by the earthquake refugees residing in three villages in the Village District Darmacaang Ciamis Cikoneng, abandoned. They lack the tent and until yesterday had not received food aid and other supplies from Ciamis regency. Moreover, some of the refugees have now had the flu and cough.


Ajo Darmacaang mayor was accompanied by Chairman of the BPD Warjo and Disaster Command Post pangawas Wardana Endang said, the number of refugees of 1910 came from three hamlets. Like Sorok Hamlet, Hamlet and Hamlet Village Cimong. It confirmed that the refugees had received logistical support from the government. Also refugees need additional tent about 10 units.


Endang described, a 40 person capacity tent occupied by more than 52 people. It consists of the children, adults and parents. Whereas for a family tent with a capacity of 6 people, occupied 10 to 12 people. "Due to excess capacity, some of the refugees trouble sleeping," he said. He explained, the tent is currently only 10 units.


Another concern, continued Endang, 15 percent of the approximately 286 displaced people experience flu-like illness, bantuk and ISPA. Dominated sufferers of children and some adults.


For that it asked the Office of Health to intervene immediately. Minimum health posts set up near the refugee camp. "Refugees need of blankets and other supplies. Because even in the refugee camps are safe and can resist the cold," he explained.


Galunggung Rift


7.3 magnitude tectonic earthquake Richter scale Tuesday (2 / 9), impact on the movement of soil on the crater lip Galunggung. As a result Galunggung crater cracked lips.


Observations of Post Galunggung Volcanology Volcanology Central Geological Agency and Geological Hazard Mitigation in the District Padakembang, discovered cracks along 350 meters of land and 0.5 centimeters wide circular crater on the lips. The condition is triggered avalanche prone land, if the cracks filled with rain water.


Mount fire observer member Galunggung, Ucu Insan Kamil admitted knowing of the incident to local reports. However, to ensure that potential ground motion in the crater lip and the potential for landslides, Ucu said, should be confirmed through further research team of expert researchers from the movement of soil Geological Agency Mitigation Center for Volcanology and Geological Hazard of West Java Province. "The possibility (research) will be one or two days ahead," he revealed to Radar, last night.


According to Ucu, the new land cracks appeared after the earthquake. Because of the recent data by the routine observation of the observation team Galunggung Volcanology Last week, the cracks are not visible.


Is that a crack can cause avalanche to the ground beneath tourist attraction? Ucu said avalanches land will fall into the crater. Because the crater lip has steeper angle than her back.


"But if the avalanche of land falls into the lake and close inlete (drainage, red), can cause large water waves as Gintung Situ events. Wave is flowing into the Rivers Cikunir and Cibanjaran," said Ucu.


Anticipate the things that are not desirable, Post Volcanology Galunggung observations suggest that the government temporarily closed the access to visitors and the community into the crater. Moreover, since the last one month, volcanic earthquakes at Mount Galunggung continue to happen. That is one in a row on Saturday (1 / 8), Sunday (2 / 8), Monday (10 / 8) and Tuesday (11 / 8). Then three times on Saturday (15 / 8) and a row one time on Wednesday (19 / 8), Saturday (22 / 8), Monday (24 and 31 / 8), and one time on Tuesday (1 / 9) . "Mountain of Fire Galunggung still active status to normal," added Ucu.


Separately, Dzulfakor environmental activist, Usep states had a dialogue with the village heads a district Padakembang Events Galunggung discuss today.

According Usep, the soil cracks at the crater lip action could not be separated from the sand exploitation in the region Galunggung Cipanas. So far, Tasikmalaya regency government had never been voiced about the conditions in Galunggung. "There should be a prohibition decision in Galunggung exploitation such as sand," he said.


The same was expressed Dzulfakor lainnnya environmental activist, Abu. According to him, if the soil cracks continue to grow when the rain falls, the lips can be breached crater. Water overflowing the crater and avalanches of soil from the crater lip can be swept at least two nearby villages, the village and Sinagar Linggajati. (JPNN)

Friday, September 11, 2009 | Metro TV | Lampung Post | Borneo News | Yayasan Sukma |

JAKARTA-MI: Until at 23:34:00 pm, Thursday (10 / 9) middle of the night, the Ministry of Health (MOH) reported, the victims died because of quake Tasikmalaya has reached 72 people died, 28 people were reported still missing and 31 people were still undergoing inpatient .

"About 370 people suffered serious injury being recorded. This does not include data from the recording of casualties in field hospitals," said Head of Department of Health Crisis Response Center Rustam S. Pakaya, via short message, yesterday. Victims who suffered minor injuries reach 1009 people.

Rustam also reported a number of infectious diseases are very common when there is a mass disasters pricking. Health post in Bandung said, of the 11,258 medical data, 169 (1.5 percent) of them diagnosed with diarrheal disease, in Ciamis, of the 710 who visited the post, 39 people (5 percent) also experienced diarrhea, Garut, from 5725 , 160 (2.8 percent) including diarrhea.

From the hypothesis while, outbreaks of diarrhea due to two things. Rustam first suspected, the plague spread from drinking water sourced from wells or running water population.

"I think a lot of septitank broken by an earthquake and tap water contaminate the population," guessed. So I appealed to citizens not to consume drinking water comes from their tap water.

It is said, the government has supplied a lot of tanker trucks of water content to the evacuation. "We supply two tanks in the morning and two tanks in the afternoon in each region," he added.

Proved he added, because no longer consume tap water, from 87 patients who visited the health post in Tasikmalaya, no diarrhea victims. Though Rustam said, the first day of diarrhea victims have been thousands of people, but again pascatidak drink tap water, diarrhea cases has fallen dramatically.

The second factor is the cause of the outbreak of diarrhea, because his life had begun to diarrheal disease spread in the territories since last August 25, 2009, and has not been resolved. "They infect others in the refugee areas," he said.

With regard to other diseases that usually arise in the event of disasters, disease outbreaks ensure Rsutam like measles and tetanus does not exist. In the meantime, also reported, 150 health facilities damaged by the earthquake. However, Rustam ensure the health problems under control. (Tlc/OL-7)
