Flood countermeasure management in Bulak Banteng Surabaya

The rainy season in Indonesia occurs due to the west monsoon wind blowing from the Asian continent which carries a lot of water vapor to the Australian continent due to climate change, it causes high rainfall and can potentially cause floods. In addition, the phenomenon of garbage accumulation in the river and the failure of the drainage system are the reasons for flooding in metropolitan cities, especially in Surabaya. This study aims to determine the preparedness of the community, especially the people of Bulak Banteng Village, in facing floods during the rainy season. Data were collected using the Simple Random Sample (SRS) method with 30 correspondents randomly selected at the research location. The results showed that many people were aware of the causes of flooding and the signs and impacts caused by flooding. Therefore, some people have prepared themselves in case of flooding by raising the floor of their houses so that water does not enter the house. In the event of a flood, the community prefers to evacuate themselves to a relative's place that is not affected by flooding rather than going to the disaster evacuation site provided by the local government, this happens because of the lack of training or socialization of flood response in the community, resulting in the lack of flood disaster information obtained by the community.

印度尼西亚的雨季成因如下：受气候变化影响，西季风从亚洲大陆吹送大量水汽至澳大利亚大陆，由此引发强降雨，进而存在诱发洪涝灾害的潜在可能。此外，河流垃圾堆积与排水系统失效，是大都市（尤以泗水市为甚）发生洪涝的重要诱因。本研究旨在调研社区居民——尤其是布拉卡班滕村（Bulak Banteng Village）居民——在雨季应对洪涝的备灾意识与准备情况。数据采集采用简单随机抽样（Simple Random Sample, SRS）方法，在调研地点随机选取30名受访者。研究结果表明，多数民众知晓洪涝的成因、征兆及造成的影响，因此部分居民已提前做好防洪备灾：通过抬高房屋地面的方式，避免洪水侵入住宅。洪涝灾害发生时，社区居民更倾向于前往未受影响的亲友家中避险，而非前往当地政府设置的官方灾害疏散点；该现象源于社区缺乏洪涝应对培训与宣传普及，导致居民获取的洪涝灾害相关信息较为匮乏。
