It's really hard when a mixture of sulphur dioxide, hydrogen sulphide, carbon dioxide and other equally unpleasant gasses blowing...... *cough..cough..*
Despite the risks (i.e fatality from sulphur inhalation, minor eruptions and deteriorating bones and muscles) the miners are envied by others in their villages. They earn more than those who work in agriculture and they get paid in daily basis (as opposed to every 2 weeks). As of June 2006, the rate is Rp 400/kg (about 4 cents USD) for carrying the slabs of sulfur up and down the strenuous crater and hill. If they do 1 run for the weight between 70-90 kgs they pocket USD 3-4/day. The stronger ones can make it twice a day. Due the nature of the work and human's physical limitations, most miners only work every other day (15 days/month).

Madakaripura Waterfall at Probolinggo, East Java.
Part of the walkpath was destroyed by flood two years ago - we had to go through quite rough terrain to see the waterfall. But it worths the effort.. it is SO BEAUTIFUL!

In every place I have visited, I really like to know and chat with local people life ( especially with or about children ). Above man came and chat with me when I was taking picture in this lonely beach. Life as the fisherman in Indonesia is very hard since the fuel price has increased few months ago. Most of them were living in poverty...Y_Y

Indonesia Railway Industry
INKA, state own industry in Indonesia, standing in 1981 which is located in Yos Sudarso Street, broadly is 220.000 m2 with the labour as much 974 people.
INKA, moving towards from stem locomotive workshop in 1981 to the modern railcar manufacture. With the vision to be world class company, the business activity is growing from basic product to the higher value added product and service in railway and transportation business. The mission on business and technology is competitiveness creation in railway and transportation products that focused to dominate the domestic market and to win competition is ASEAN region and developing countries.
The products of PT INKA for example
1. Passenger Wagon
2. Goods Wagon
3. Cart of Rail Electrics (KRL)
4. Open Wagon
5. Gashholder Wagon
6. Mouseder Card
7. Mobile Medical Car (MMC)

Passenger Transport
High demand intercity railway is increasing in the high density region in the archipelago countries. New passenger coaches were introduced to capture the market with quality of service. In the beginning, value migration was created to absorb middle class passenger mobility. The next step development is prepared to adapt newest technology which is upgraded from the development of commuter electric railcar using light weight stainless steel carbody and modern AC traction control with IGBT VVVF inverter. Commuter railcar is the best solution for public urban transport. Based on experiences in commuter services, the modern electric railcar will be soon developed to more reliable design for future mass rapid transit.
Freight Transport
In the developing countries, railway is expected to be backbone of land transportation. The large scale mining and industry commodities are better carried bulk rail wagon. Various design of freight wagon can adapt the special demand of handling and higher capacity such as 18 ton axle load in the coal and pulp transportation. On the other hand, the modern container flat wagon is designed for speed up 100km/h and light weight requirement.
The new railway line and double track projects in developing countries are increasing to cope the potential demand of goods transport as well as to improve line capacity. High quality hopper wagon and multi purpose track maintenance car is usually required in small lot. New approach on mutual collaboration with railway consultant and civil contractor will overcome an efficient turnkey project especially for plantation and mining area.
Diversification Product
Changing market conditions push the railway manufacturer to utilize its core competence for diversification products. The best adaptation is to extend services in tansport value chain over the automotive product platform and handling equipments.
The modular construction is enhanced from proven railway technology to various kind of pre-fabrication. Computer aided design, system integration and quality management system ISO 9001: 2000 are toolkits for successfull new product development. For a vehicle manufacturer, the decisive task is to meet customer satisfaction with the modern manufacturing system in every kind product, every lot, and every where global marketplace.

Lumajang, Jawa Timur, Indonesia.
(Image was taken at Senduro, a small mountain town at the foot of Mount Semeru in Kabupaten Lumajang; Lumajang Regency, East Java).
Musa balbisiana Colla (BBB Group) or Musa (BBB Group). Musaceae. CN: [Malay and regional vernacular names - Pisang galla, Pisang benggala, Pisang batu, Biu batu (Bali), Pisang klotok (Jawa; sharing the name with Musa acuminata Colla (ABB Group) 'Pisang Awak', likely the seedy cultivar.), Kluai taanee, Kluai tani (Thai กล้วยตานี)], Balbis banana, Starchy banana, Mealy banana, Seedy banana, Wild starchy banana, Wild banana type B. A species of wild banana native to eastern South Asia, northern Southeast Asia, and southern China can grow to more than 8 m in height. It is one of the progenitors of modern cultivated bananas along with Musa acuminata. The species is also the primary genetic relative of B-genome bananas for breeding purposes. The fruit is considered inedible because of the seeds they contain and is often grown for its thick leaves for wrapping food and other uses. In Indonesia, the rind of Pisang klotok is thinly sliced along with some of its interior flesh, mixed with other fruits and sauce, called rujak, and the part has the most seeds discarded. In Malaysia, except in the state of Kelantan (or perhaps other eastern states in Peninsular Malaysia), the plant is planted for its thick and resilient broad leaves and the young fruits are sometimes harvested for making 'acar' (chutney). The ripe fruit is very sweet and occasionally eaten raw while the hard black seeds are spat out, but most liberally swallowed.
In Thai folklore it is believed that this type of banana tree may be inhabited by a spirit, Nang Tani (นางตานี), a type of ghost (or rather a species of the ghost, since we are in the midst of discussing taxonomy) related to trees that manifests itself as a young woman. Often people tie a length of colored satin cloth around the trunk of the banana tree to appease the ghost. While in the Malay culture, there were awful maniacs called Orang Minyak (Oily Man), a bunch of compulsive oily rapists prowling during the darkness of the night, naked and terrorizing beautiful maidens in villages. In order to be one, one has to have to be a hermit, sitting cross-legged alone under a flowering banana tree in the jungle, with the mouth gaping collecting and swallowing in the process whatever fluid dripping from the banana heart until the unseen being shows its face. It may take days, weeks, or even months. Perhaps, some negotiating and pleading happened, "Hey I wanna be an Oily Man. Help me please, please. I drank all your shit that flowed along the banana heart isn't it." The sighting of Orang Minyak has declined lately, I suppose staying dormant, but ready to strike again. So much for the digression and storytelling!

and many more with numerous circumscriptions among taxonomists.
Note:
The vernacular name 'Pisang batu' may also refer to other hybrids and cultivars. Phylogeny is now the methodology used for the classification of the complex Musaceae.
1. Pisang batu (Malaysia) is Musa acuminata x balbisiana Colla (ABBB Group) cv. 'Tiparot'
2. Pisang batu (Indonesia) is Musa acuminata x balbisiana Colla (ABB Group) cv. 'Bluggoe' or ?"Pisang kates"

More low-rise jengkis - but obviously the designer is not Harjono Sigit who built nearby 1965-built Universitas Semen Gresik. The Wisma General Ahmad Yani built no earlier than 1963, near Semen Indonesia head office.
