Apa kabar pak dragono?

What great pictures you have displayed. They capture Kalimantan / Samarinda so well, such a great country that is suffering from the effects of industrialisation.

Could you please tell me the date of the flood at Tunjungbara airport ? You're english is much better than my bahasa Indonesian. :o)

best wishes Ibu Heather

Hi there, and thanks for your appreciation.. ^.^

Anyway, about the exact date of flood at Sengata, Kutai Timur (East Kutai), all i can remember, the latest flood was on last March. But I can't exactly sure, Tanjungbara airport was included or not.. ^.^

In fact, lately flood occurs every year..

Opps I have just looked again and it wasn't Tunjungbarra, was another airport that looks very similar. I have book marked your page to my favorites so I can keep uptodate with your posts.
