164 Thousand Central Sulawesi Tsunami Refugees Still on Emergency Tents
Fokus Pos. Towards three months after the earthquake, tsunami and liquefaction that hit Palu, Sigi and Donggala areas, Central Sulawesi, more than 164 thousand people still live in around 333 refugee camp posts. They survived in field tents measuring around 3 x 5 meters.
The disaster that hit the Pasigala area on Friday, September 28, 2018, has left no less than 164,626 people homeless, even livelihoods. They now have to dwell in refugee tents spread across 333 points in the three affected areas.
Basic needs that are currently still very much needed, in the form of rice and milk and other food ingredients. At some points of evacuation, such as Balaroa, West Palu, the need for clean water is equally important.
As for where they will be placed after December 2018, on average they don't know. They only knew that there would be temporary shelter construction in Tondo, Duyu, Petobo and Gawalise, but they did not know where they would be resettled.
"We still need rice. Also clean water. There is clean water a day. There are water subsidies twice a day. But it must be even more. This is not enough for the ablution in the mosque. If we don't have a residential house, we don't know where I want to be placed. I want to go wherever I want, "said the Balaroa refugee who now lives in the Donggala Kodi Evacuation Post, Satir, Wednesday (12/20/2018)
Andi Asse, a girl of four who also lives in Donggala Kodi, said the same thing.
"We still need rice, also milk. When it comes to shelters (temporary shelter), we know that there are built in Tondo, Duyu, and Gawalise, but if we don't know where it will be placed," he said.
One location that is now inhabited by residents affected by Balaroa liquefaction is the point of refugees in Donggala Kodi Village, West Palu. This location was built by a number of volunteers from Turkey, non-governmental institutions and agribusiness companies operating in the Central Sulawesi region. Road directions in this location are named after the country, non-governmental organizations and companies that help build them.
In accordance with the submission of the Governor of Central Sulawesi, Longki Djanggola, the government through the Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing is preparing the construction of 1,200 temporary housing units. The current work is around 697 units.
"In this recovery period we prioritize a number of activities. For example the acceleration of the construction of shelters. We are targeting 1,200 units to be completed in December. Then we also prepare basic needs such as clean water in shelters. We also plan to provide assistance "bedding, pillows, blankets, etc. The electricity needs are also in mind. Will they pay for full or subsidized electricity later," Longki explained.
Based on the Pasigala Disaster Data and Information Center report, the Central Sulawesi Provincial Government said, currently the number of affected people who are still displaced and living in refugee camps is not less than 20,257 families or around 164,626 people. If the government until December 2018 ends up being able to prepare 697 units multiplied by 12 rooms, it can only accommodate 8,364 families.
Well, what about 11,893 other families who of course will demand a placement in temporary housing?
