Download or read book Surabaya Beat written by Beat Presser and published by Scheidegger and Spiess. This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From 2012 to 2014, Swiss photographer and seaman Beat Presser traveled the vast Indonesia archipelago by boat, amassing an extensive collection of photographs that capture the complexity and beauty of life on the country's tens of thousands of islands and the surrounding ocean waters. Surabaya Beat draws on Presser's photographs to reconstruct his travels. Through high winds and heavy storms, he sails as part of the crew aboard traditional Indonesian pinisi, carrying fresh fruit bound for the port cities and the world-famous floating markets while learning from the local seamen about the country through its transport and trade. Along the way, he encounters fellow travelers, from tourists to oil exporters, and even officers of the Coast Guard who lend him a motorcycle and later invite him to join them for a dive. Presser's masterful black-and-white photography lends a timeless tone to these and many other encounters in this popular travel destination that remains nevertheless a source of mystery to most outside Southeast Asia. Alongside more than one hundred photographs and his own writings, Presser has assembled short stories and poems by some of Indonesia's most promising writers. Photographic opportunities abound in Indonesia, and Surabaya Beat represents Presser's personal photographic vision that will entrance fans of photography and anyone looking to learn more about this incredible, vibrant country.

Book excerpt: This is an open access book.Adaptive, Resilient & Collaborative EngineeringTowards Faster Recovery & Impactful Solutions The world in the last decade has been facing global issues such as accelerated global warming, depleting natural resources, food waste and scarcity, water contamination and shortage, energy conservation, etc. Enter the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 and we face what people term as double disruption. Not only solutions to the above problems are becoming more critical, but they are also needed fast. Timely and effective solutions are called for so that we can recover from the pandemic while at the same time carry our efforts to better our world. It is no longer sufficient to find solutions that can only delay the negative impacts from the above problems, but it is imperative to tip the balance and reverse the impacts to our advantage. Engineers and engineering have a vital role in inventing mechanisms, systems, and/or products that can address the solutions. Digital technologies and artificial intelligence have been at the forefront of such exploration and we can expect some hints for a better future, if we continue being adaptive, resilient, and collaborative. Given the above background, Faculty of Engineering - Universitas Surabaya, will host the fourth bi-annual international conference “The 4th International Conference on Informatics, Technology and Engineering 2023 (InCITE 2023)” in Yogyakarta, Indonesia, September 14th–15th, 2023.

We invite academia and business practitioners all around the globe to share ideas and best practices relevant to the above conference topic. We hope that this event can also serve as a platform of gathering for anyone interested in exploring potential solutions of our common problems today. Accepted and presented paper will be submitted for publication in reputable International Proceeding (Atlantis Press). See you in Yogyakarta!
Download or read book Snow Over Surabaya written by Nigel Barley and published by Monsoon Books. This book was released on 2017-03-01 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Not many British schoolgirls have grown up to become revolutionary heroes of distant, eastern nations but Muriel Stewart Walker did just that. Under a multitude of different names – ‘K’tut Tantri’ and ‘Surabaya Sue’ being the best know – she joined in the struggle for Indonesian independence after the Second World War and broadcast its revolutionary message to the world on Rebel Radio. But she did more and smuggled arms, and probably drugs, to help finance the new Republic and experienced bloody battle in the British attack on Surabaya that some have seen as a war crime. She went on to become an intimate of the revolutionary leaders and finally lived to see Indonesia take its place amongst the free nations of the world. Glaswegian ‘Surabaya Sue’ is virtually unknown in the West and, even in Indonesia, there have always been doubts about her version of events that many have dismissed outright as a blatant mixture of outrageous fantasy and dishonest omissions. Snow over Surabaya happily embraces those doubts and brings a new, spirited account of her adventures in that tempestuous world.
Download or read book Surabaya 1945 2010 written by Robbie Peters and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is is a remarkable study of urban society in one of Indonesia's main port cities. It views Surabaya from the experiences of the people who occupy its alleyways, riverbanks and muddy roadsides, a group that has had little say in the making of policy or the writing of Indonesia's history. The setting is a crowded low-income neighbourhood (kampung) that lies between the Surabaya River and the city's main southern boulevard. For those who live along this kampung's narrow alleyways, the city can be a violent landscape of exclusion and social asymmetry. From this perspective, Indonesia's landmark events, from the revolution of 1945 and the destruction of the Communist Party in 1965 to contemporary urban renewal and anti-terrorism campaigns, take on a new complexion. Using rich ethnographic details, Robbie Peters describes how kampung residents have survived in the shadow of Indonesia's tumultuous economic growth and political reform and how they have contested government controls over the movement and settlement of people, limiting the state's ability to construct an urban citizenry that excludes newcomers. The kampung alternative is a 'participative' citizenship that embraces new arrivals and draws them into the everyday life of the alleyways, using simple rituals such as death commemorations to 'counter-map' static official representations of neighbourhood and community. Such local practices underpin kampung residents' claim to the alleyways and surrounding streets, where they struggle to maintain the informal economy that helps sustain their lives.

In response the youth of the city seized Japanese arms and repelled the force sent to occupy the city. They then held off British reinforcements for two weeks battling tanks and heavy artillery with little more than light weapons and sheer audacity. Though eventually defeated Surabaya's defenders had set the stage for Indonesia's national revolution.

Download or read book Japan s Environmental Politics and Governance written by Yasuo Takao and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2016-11-03 with total page 355 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Environmental issues stretch across scales of geographic space and require action at multiple levels of jurisdiction, including the individual level, community level, national level, and global level. Much of the scholarly work surrounding new approaches to environmental governance tends to overlook the role of sub-national governments, but this study examines the potential of sub-national participation to make policy choices which are congruent with global strategies and national mandates. This book investigates the emerging actors and new channels of Japan’s environmental governance which has been taking shape within an increasingly globalized international system. By analysing this important new phenomenon, it sheds light on the changing nature of Japan’s environmental policy and politics, and shows how the links between global strategies, national mandates and local action serve as an influential factor in Japan’s changing structures of environmental governance. Further, it demonstrates that decision-making competencies are shared between actors operating at different levels and in new spheres of authority, resulting from collaboration between state and non-state actors. It highlights a number of the problems, challenges, and critiques of the actors in environmental governance, as well as raising new empirical and theoretical puzzles for the future study of governance over environmental and global issues. Finally, it concludes that changes in the tiers and new spheres of authority are leading the nation towards an environmentally stable future positioned within socio-economic and political constraints. Demonstrating that bridging policy gaps between local action, national policy and global strategies is potentially a way of reinventing environmental policy, this book will be of interest to students and scholars of Environmental Studies, Environmental Politics and Japanese Politics.
