Lombok Earthquake: State of emergency declared for three-week period
The government has set a three-week
state of emergency period to respond to
the 7.0-magnitude earthquake that
rocked Lombok this past Sunday.
The quake’s death toll has been slowly
inching up as rescuers find more and
more victims under debris. The number
of victims is currently set at just over a
hundred, with hundreds more injured,
and thousands more forced to
evacuate.
Many survivors on the Indonesian
island, especially in North Lombok
where the earthquake hit the hardest,
are left without power, access to clean
drinking water, and stable, reliable
shelter–an issue as aftershocks
continue to pulsate through the island.
“The most important thing is the
emergency response, after that
rehabilitation and reconstruction,” said
Indonesia’s second-in-command, Vice
President Jusuf Kalla.

“According to the governor (of Lombok),
70 percent of North Lombok’s buildings
were damaged,” Kalla said on Monday,
as quoted by Republika.
The government has mobilized the
National Disaster Mitigation Agency
(BNPB) and the national military,
directly deploying personnel in
response to the earthquake.
The Indonesian Red Cross (PMI) has
also been actively working alongside
the government to provide relief in the
form of setting up health posts and
sending out water tanks in areas
heavily impacted by the earthquake.
A few but dedicated NGOs and
community members have also
mobilized, raising funds to support
affected communities and deliver
supplies.
“The emergency response period is
three weeks. After the three weeks, we
will transition to the recovery process,”
Indonesian Tourism Minister Arief
Yahya explained in Jakarta on Tuesday.
As for tending to the many tourists, the
government’s priority during this
emergency period is evacuating visitors

out of Lombok during this three-week
span, says Yahya.
Over 1,000 tourists, foreign and
domestic, were evacuated from the
popular Gili islands off the northwestern
coast of Lombok yesterday.
Tourists evacuated from Lombok are
mainly being sent to Bali, according to
Yahya.
“Around 50-60 percent to Bali, 20-30
percent to Jakarta, and the remaining
10-20 percent to Surabaya,” Detik
quoted the minister as saying.
During the recovery phase, the
emphasis will be on repairing homes
and hotels, he added.
Yahya also noted during the press
conference that he was grateful other
countries had not issued travel
advisories, warning their citizens from
traveling to Indonesia—this was a
whole issue when Mount Agung
erupted last fall.
Sunday’s earthquake follows a 6.4
quake that left 17 dead on July 29.
