By being made the Juanda Airport as the International airport to anticipate the good increase in passengers and cargo, by the development was aimed to support the development of the airport as the centre of the business. In the year 1992/1993 was carried out by the expansion of the International Terminal from the increase 2 VIP rooms as well as the plan of this Airport of the development project during 1994 through the Project of FBUKP-DJU with the OECF aid fund of Rp.250 billion. Several efforts opportunities and the pattern of the co-operation that enabled to be carried out with the third party, in part: the administrative building/the office complex, cargo warehousing, ground handling, the transit Hotel/shops.
The Asia-Pacific development became the centre of the growth of economics and the world industry in the forthcoming globalization era - that was famous with the Asian Miracle term - will encourage the growth of the East Indonesian Region that by chance was close to the border of Pacific and in the North-South conflict of the economic route that has been predicted will become the very important intercontinental economic route. The Asia-Pacific growth and the North-South economic route opened the big opportunity for the Airport of Sam Ratulangi that his location exact on the border of Pacific and the Frans Kaisiepo Airport that was exact in the North-South economic route that began to be developing. Likewise with the Juanda Airport and Ahmad Yani that up till now became the infrastructure for the Surabaya city that grew into the most important industrial city to 2 in the Javanese Island.
The main task of an airport was:
held the safety of the flight, the security of the flight as well as the ease and airport comfort.
In the situation that although, the three main tasks must continue to become the priority, although the condition for an airport economically still could not be losing and closing the operational cost. That has indeed become the Company's commitment that always will be revered.
Therefore, to close the operational cost to the airport that still was running at a loss afterwards was carried out by cross subsidized efforts. The airport that already the profit gave the subsidy to the airport that still was running at a loss. So, the level of the achievement of the service to all First airport balanced relatively. It is all that in line with the determination that was proclaimed by the Company, that is "Developing the Image and the Achievement of the Indonesian Airport ".
Up to late 1997, around 12 first airports just 3 airports that really produced the profit in an established manner, one of them was Juanda Surabaya.
The movement of the domestic passenger flow in the Juanda Airport (the Airport), Surabaya, until quarterly to four in 2002, increased by as many as 1.402.089 people or rose 52.10 percent compared with 2001. So as on the whole, the movement flow of domestic passengers in 2002 rose to 4.093.020 people whereas in 2001 totally 2.690.931 people.
Following with the trend, the rise trend of the these passengers movements number will continue to happen in forthcoming years. This was caused the aircraft tariff was more competitive compared to the land transport and sea moda.
The rise in the movement of these passengers also triggered the increase in the frequency of the flight and the new route. The frequency that often was increased is the Surabaya-Jakarta route that achieved approximately 120 flights from the total 240 flights per day.
The busy other route was Surabaya-Bali, Surabaya-Makassar, Surabaya Lombok, and Surabaya-Balikpapan. During 2002, the movement of the aircraft was totally 69.472 times or rose 25.48 percent compared with 2001 totally 55.368 times.
Apart from the movement of domestic passengers, the movement of international passengers round 2002 also experienced the increase 3,19 percent. In 2002, the number of international passengers who went through the Juanda Airport Surabaya reached 637.169 people, now during 2001 totally 617.454 passengers.
"Despite the number of frequencies of the flight from Malaysia Airlines (Mas) and Singapore Airlines (SQ) was reduced, but the increase in the movement of international passengers continued to happen. This was caused by the airline used the type of the big aircraft after reducing the frequency," explained Bambang.
Reduced by the frequency of the two international airlines flight as a result of the passenger market was taken by Lion Airlines and the Garuda that had the flight route to Batam. To Malaysia or to Singapore , passengers tended in choosing to Batam, afterwards follow the trip by the ferry.
Apart from several reasons above, the improvement of economics took part in triggering the movement of passengers and cargo in the Juanda Airport Surabaya. For the movement of domestic cargo, during 2002 the increase happened 18 percent of 23.475 ton during 2001 became 27.699 ton during 2002. Now, for the movement of international cargo also experienced the increase 16,76 percent that is from 14.592 ton during 2001 became 17.028 ton during 2002.
The increase in the movement of passengers and this cargo also forced the increase in the safety service, the security of the flight, the airport environment, and the ease in the airport.(INU)

Ijen volcano (located in east Java) has a one-kilometer-wide turquoise-colored highly acidic crater lake. The lake is the site of a labor-intensive sulfur mining operation, in which sulfur-laden baskets are carried by hand from the crater floor (200 m deep).
Despite the risks (i.e fatality from sulphur inhalation and minor eruptions, deteriorating health) 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 for carrying the slabs of sulfur up and down the strenuous crater and hill (about 4 cents USD). If they make only 1 run for the weight between 70-100 kgs they pocket USD 3-4/day. The stronger ones can make it twice. Due the nature of the work and human's physical limitations, most miners only work every other day (15 days/month).

Here's an excerpt. You can Google and find out more:
Asiaticoside is a terpenoid component extracted form Centella asiatica. It has been demonstrated to increase collagen synthesis and therefore anti-wrinkle activity. Skin ageing appears to be principally related to a decrease in the levels of type I collagen, the primary component of the skin dermis. Type I collagen is also known to impart tensile strength to skin. In vitro evaluations have demonstrated the receptorial activity of Asiaticoside on collagen synthesis. Clinical evaluations confirm its anti-wrinkle efficacy.

Following the success of Citra Raya, the Company developed several other projects to expand the existence of Ciputra Group in East Java and also other parts of Indonesia. In 1995 the Company marked the opening of 18-hole Ciputra Golf, followed by the next 9-hole in 1997 to become the most popular golf club in East Java. The Family Club adjacent to the Golf Club House commenced its operation also in 1997. Both the golf and family clubs are private clubs by membership only.
In 1998, the Company launched Graha Citra, a residential estate in the north of Citra Raya. Due to weak demand during the monetary crisis in 1998, this project was suspended until 2001. In 2003 this project was re-launched as Bukit Palma. Bukit Palma more affordable houses for middle class, therefore complements Citra Raya that provides more offers houses.
In August 2005, the Company also commenced the operation of Ciputra Waterpark in Citra Raya. Covering 4 hectares of land, Ciputra Waterpark is the largest water park in Indonesia. The Company has been through a long journey to become a major real estate player in Indonesia. It created vision on raw land and develop it for better living of the people. It successfully survived during the monetary crisis in 1998 and has been growing afterwards.
