We headed from Solo at 6.30 a.m and arrive at Semarang at 9.30. after arrived at Semarang, We Involved on Presentation session about the polder project from SIMA (Schieland-Krimpenerwaard and Semarang) and Discussion with UNIKA Soegijapranata in Toko Oen, one of the cafe and meeting room with colonial architecture.


After lunch, we visited Polder Project Karangturi Sub-district, the upstream part of the River Banger guided by Mrs. Iswari, Board Advisor of SIMA.




The water flows through the river comes from household wastewater and the water is still in normal condition.



The next destination was Tanjung Mas Port (downstream part) to saw the condition of tidal flood in Semarang. The flood is happened because land subsidence, sea water rise, decreasing of retention basin and the the formulation of water management system is still being discussed.
The final site was East Channel “Banjir Kanal Timur” at downstream of Semarang. We visited some constructions for riverbeds. In the end, the pumping station also under construction for the whole polder has been seen. It pumps water from west side of river to the east. The tour stops around 4 o’clock and get to the hotel in the central of Semarang City.
