Bogor(Sundanese:ᮘᮧᮌᮧᮁ,Dutch:Buitenzorg) is acityin theWest Javaprovince,Indonesia.Located around 60 kilometers (37 mi) south of the national capital ofJakarta,Bogor is the 6th largest city in theJakarta metropolitan areaand the 14th overall nationwide.[6]The city covers an area of 111.39 km2,and it had a population of 950,334 in the 2010 Census[7]and 1,043,070 in the 2020 Census.[8]The official estimate as at the end of 2023 was 1,127,408.[9]Bogor is an important economic, scientific, cultural, and tourist center, as well as a mountain resort.

During theMiddle Ages,the city served as the capital of theSunda Kingdom(Sundanese:Karajaan Sunda) and was calledPakuan PajajaranorDayeuh Pakuan.During theDutch colonial era,it was namedBuitenzorg("without worries"in Dutch) and served as the summer residence of theGovernor-Generalof theDutch East Indies.

With several hundred thousand people living on an area of about 20 km2(7.7 sq mi), the central part of Bogor is one of the world's most densely populated areas. The city has apresidential palaceand abotanical garden(Indonesian:Kebun Raya Bogor) – one of the oldest and largest in the world. It bears the nickname "Rainy City" (Kota Hujan), because of frequent rain showers, even during the dry season.

History[edit]

Precolonial period[edit]

A Dutch map showing the location of the Pakuan Pajajaran relatively to Buitenzorg

The first mention of a settlement at present Bogor dates to the 5th century when the area was part ofTarumanagara,one of the earliest states inIndonesian history.[10][11][12]After a series of defeats by the neighboringSrivijaya,Tarumanagara was transformed into theSunda Kingdom,and in 669, the capital of Sunda was built between two parallel rivers, theCiliwungandCisadane.It was namedPakuan Pajajaran,in old Sundanese meaning "a place between the parallel [rivers]", and became the predecessor of the modern Bogor.[13][14]

Over the next several centuries, Pakuan Pajajaran became one of the largest cities in medieval Indonesia with a population reaching 48,000.[14]The name Pajajaran was then used from the 16th century for the entire kingdom, and the capital was simply called Pakuan.[14][15][16][17][18]The chronicles of that time were written inSanskrit,which was the language used for official and religious purposes, using thePallavawriting system, on rock stellas called prasasti.[11][19]The prasasti found in and around Bogor differ in shape and text style from other Indonesian prasasti and are among the main attractions of the city.[11]

From the 9th-15th centuries, the capital moved between Pakuan and other cities of the kingdom, and finally returned to Pakuan byKing Siliwangi(Sri Baduga Maharaja) on 3 June 1482 – the day of his coronation. Since 1973, this date is celebrated in Bogor as an official city holiday.[20][21]

In 1579, Pakuan was captured and almost completely destroyed by the army of theSultanate of Banten,[22][23]causing the existence of the State of Sunda to cease. The city was abandoned and remained uninhabited for decades.[14][20]

Colonial period[edit]

Dutch East India Company[edit]

In the second half of the 17th century, the abandoned Pakuan as with most of West Java, while formally remaining under the Sultanate of Banten, gradually passed under the control of theDutch East India Company(VOC). The formal transition occurred on 17 April 1684 with a signed agreement between the Crown Prince of Banten and the VOC.[24]

The first, and temporal, colonial settlement at Pakuan was a camp of lieutenant Tanoejiwa, aSundaneseemployed by the VOC who was sent in 1687 to develop the area.[16][24][25]It was seriously damaged by the eruption on 4–5 January 1699 of theMount Salakvolcano (Indonesian:Gunung Salak). However, the concomitant forest fires removed much forest, leaving much area for the planned rice and coffee plantations.[16]In a short time, several agricultural settlements appeared around Pakuan, the largest being Kampung Baru (lit. "new village" ).[11] In 1701, they were combined into an administrative district; Tanoejiwa was chosen as the head of the district and is regarded as the founder of the modernBogor Regency.[24][25]

The district was further developed during the 1703 Dutch mission headed by the Inspector General of the VOCAbraham van Riebeeck(the son of the founder ofCape TownJan van Riebeeckand later Governor of Dutch East Indies).[16][24]The expedition of van Riebeeck performed a detailed study of the Pakuan ruins, discovered and described many archaeological artifacts, including prasasti, and erected buildings for the VOC employees.[25]The area attracted the Dutch by a favorable geographical position and mild climate, preferred over the hotBataviawhich was then the administrative center of the Dutch East Indies.[25]In 1744–1745, the residence of the Governor-General was built in Pakuan which was hosting the government during the summer.[25]

TheGreat Post Roadpassing Buitenzorg in the 19th century

In 1746, by the order of the Governor-GeneralGustaaf Willem van Imhoff,the Palace, a nearby Dutch settlement and nine native settlements were merged into an administrative division named Buitenzorg (Dutch for "beyond (or outside) concerns", meaning "without worries" or "carefree", cf. Frederick the Great of Prussia's summer palace outside Potsdam, Sanssouci, with the same meaning in French).[26][27]Around the same time, the first reference toBogoras the local name of the city was documented; it was mentioned in the administration report from 7 April 1752 with respect to the part of Buitenzorg adjacent to the Palace.[28]Later this name became used for the whole city as the local alternative to Buitenzorg.[26]This name is believed to originate from the Javanese wordbogormeaning sugar palm (Arenga pinnata) orbokor(a large bowl made from metal), which is still used in the Indonesian language.[28][29]Alternative origins are the old-Javanese wordbhagar(meaning cow), or simply the misspelling of "Buitenzorg" by the local residents.[28]

The city grew rapidly in the late 18th – early 19th centuries.[25]This growth was partly stimulated by the temporary occupation of the Dutch East Indies by the United Kingdom in 1811–1815 – the British landed on Java and otherSunda Islandsto prevent their capture byNapoleonic Francewhich then conquered the Netherlands. The head of the British administrationStamford Rafflesmoved the administrative center from Batavia to Buitenzorg and implemented new and more efficient management techniques.[25][30]

Rule of the Kingdom of the Netherlands[edit]

After Buitenzorg was returned to the Dutch, it fell under the rule of the Kingdom of the Netherlands rather than VOC. The Buitenzorg Palace was reinstated as the summer residence of the Governor-General. The surrounding territory was also organized into a newResidency,theBuitenzorg Residency.A botanical garden was set up nearby in 1817, which was one of the world's largest gardens in the 19th century.[25][26][31][32]

On 10 October 1834, Buitenzorg was seriously damaged by another eruption of the Salak volcanoes caused by an earthquake.[25][33]Taking into account the seismic activity of the region, the governor's palace and office buildings constructed in 1840–1850 were built shorter but sturdier than those built prior to the eruption.[25]The Governor's decree of 1845 prescribed separate settlements of European,Chineseand Arab migrants within the city.[25]

In 1860–1880, the largest agricultural school in the colony was established in Buitenzorg. Other scientific institutions including a city library, natural science museum, biology, chemistry, and veterinary medicine laboratories were also constructed during this period. During this time, in 1867, the Buitenzorg Residency was downgraded from a full Residency to an Assistant Residency. By the end of the 19th century, Buitenzorg became one of the most developed and westernized cities in Indonesia.[16][25]

In 1904, Buitenzorg formally became the administrative center of the Dutch East Indies. However, real management remained in Batavia, which hosted most of the administrative offices and the main office of the governor.[11][26]This status was revoked in the administrative reform of 1924, which divided the colony into provinces and made Buitenzorg seat of the newBuitenzorg Residencyand center of West Java Province.[11]

1942–1950[edit]

DuringWorld War II,Buitenzorg and the entire territory of the Dutch East Indies were occupied by Japanese forces; the occupation lasted from 6 March 1942 until the summer of 1945.[34]As part of the efforts by the Japanese to promote nationalist (and thus anti-Dutch) sentiments among the local population the city was given the Indonesian name Bogor.[32]The city had one of the major training centres of the Indonesian militia PETA (Pembela Tanah Air – "Defenders of the Motherland").[35]

On 17 August 1945,SukarnoandHattaproclaimed independence, but the Dutch regained control of the town and adjoining areas. In February 1948, Buitenzorg was included in the quasi-independent state of West Java,(Indonesian:Negara Jawa Barat) which was renamedPasundanin April 1948 (Indonesian:Negara Pasundan). This state was established by the Netherlands as a step to transform their former colonial possessions in the East Indies into a dependent federation.[36][37]In December 1949, Pasundan joined theRepublic of the United States of Indonesia(Indonesian:Republik Indonesia Serikat,RIS) established at theDutch–Indonesian Round Table Conferenceof 23 August – 2 November 1949.[37][38]In February 1950, as a result of defeat of Pasundan in a quick military conflict with the Republic of Indonesia, the city became part of Indonesia, as formalized in August 1950,[37][38]and its name was officially declared as Bogor.[20][39]

As part of Indonesia[edit]

As part of independent modern Indonesia, Bogor has a significant role in the cultural, scientific, and economic development of the country and West Java in particular – in part due to the legacy of infrastructure built during the colonial period. Its special position was further reinforced by the transformation of the former summer residence of the governor-general into the summer palace of the President of Indonesia.[16][40]In the 1990s–2000s, the city regularly hosted various international events, such as ministry-level meetings of the Asia-Pacific institutions[41]and theAPECsummit of 15 November 1994.[42]

Geography, topography, geology[edit]

Ciliwung Rivernear to Katulampa dam
Bogor andMount Salak

The city is situated in the western part ofJavaisland, about 53 km south of the capitalJakartaand 85 km northwest ofBandung,the administrative center of West Java Province.[43]Bogor spreads over abasinnear volcanoes Salak, which peaks at about 12 km south, andMount Gedewhose top is 22–25 km south-east of the city.[44]The average elevation is 265 meters, maximum 330 m, and minimum 190 meters above sea level.[43]The terrain is rather uneven: 17.64 km2of its area has slopes of 0–2°, 80.9 km2from 2° to 15°, 11 km2between 15° and 25°, 7.65 km2from 25° to 40° and 1.20 km2over 40°;[45]the northern part is relatively flat and the southern part is more hilly.[46]

The soils are dominated by volcanic sedimentary rocks.[46]Given the proximity of large active volcanoes, the area is considered highly seismic.[44]The total area of green space is 205,000 m2,of which 87,000 m2areBogor Botanical Gardens,19,400 m2are taken by 35 parks, 17,200 m2by 24 groves and 81,400 m2are covered with grass.[47]

Several rivers flow through the city toward theJava Sea.The largest ones, Ciliwung and Cisadane, flank the historic city center. Smaller rivers, Cipakancilan, Cidepit, Ciparigi and Cibalok, are guided by cement tubes in many places.[44]It is worth noting that "ci" in the river names merely means "river" in Sundanese, and the actual name begins after it, but the "ci" is nevertheless included into national and international maps. There are several small lakes within the city, including Situ Burung (lit. Bird Lake; "Situ" meaning "Lake" ) and Situ Gede (lit. Great Lake), with the area of several hectares each. Rivers and lakes occupy 2.89% of the city area.[48]

Climate[edit]

Bogor has atropical rainforest climate(Af) according to theKöppen climate classification,[49]and more humid and rainy than in many other areas of West Java – the averagerelative humidityis 70%,[44]the average annual precipitation is about 1700 mm, but more than 3500 mm in some areas.[44]Most rain falls between December and February. Because of this weather, Bogor has the nickname "Rain City" (Indonesian:Kota hujan).[50][51]The temperatures are lower than in coastal Java: the average maximum is 25.9 °C (cf. 32.2 °C in Jakarta). Daily fluctuations (9–10 °C) are rather high for Indonesia. The absolute maximum temperature was recorded at 38 °C and the minimum at 3 °C.[43]

Economy[edit]

Bogor has developedautomotive,chemical,and food industries;[70]its outlying areas are used for agriculture.[71]During the colonization, Bogor was mostly producing coffee, rubber and high-quality timber. Chemical industry was introduced to the city at the end of the 19th century,[16][25]and car and metal production in the 1950s, during the industrialization of independent Indonesia. The fast economic development of the 1980s was slowed down by the crisis of the 1990s and recovered in the early 2000s; so the growth rate of the economy in Bogor was 5.78% in 2002, 6.07% in 2003 and 6.02% in 2009.[70]At the end of 2009, theGross Regional Product(GRP) was 12.249 trillionIDR[72](approximately US$1.287 billion[73]) and the investments amounted to 932.295 billion IDR.[72]

Despite the economic growth, the number of citizens living below the poverty level (defined by not only income, but also access to basic social services[74]) is increasing, primarily due to the inflow of poor residents from the surrounding rural areas. In 2009, 17.45% of the population lived below the poverty level, almost twice as high than in 2006 (9.5%)[72]Minimum wageis established by the West Java Governor at 2,658,155 IDR/month.[75]

In 2008 there were 3,208 officially registered industrial enterprises in Bogor employing 54,268 people, more than half (32,237) of whom worked at the 114 largest companies.[77]The outskirts of the city contain about 3,466 hectares of agricultural area, including 111 hectares of water bodies used for fishery and fish farming.[71]The main crops are rice (1165 hectares as of 2007, the annual harvest in 2003 was 9,953 tonnes), various vegetables (772 acres, 8,296 tonnes), corn (382 acres, 6,720 tonnes) andsweet potato(480 acres, 3,480 tonnes).[78]The livestock sector has 25 registered companies (as of 2007) mostly breeding cows (more than 1000 animals yielding more than 2.61 million liters of milk), sheep (about 12,000), chickens (more than 642,000) and ducks (ca. 8,000).[79][80]

About 25–30 tonnes of various species of fish are produced per year by 4 registered companies. The fishes are mostly bred artificially, in ponds and paddy fields.[81]Breedingaquarium fishand also catching them in their natural habitat is an important industry sector, which yielded US$367,000 from 2008 export sales only, mostly to Japan and Middle East.[76]A substantial part of other Bogor production, 144 billion IDR in 2008, is exported. Examples are clothes and footwear (to US, EU,ASEAN,Canada, Australia, Russia), textiles (US,New Zealand), furniture (South Korea), car tires (ASEAN countries and South America), toys and souvenirs (Japan, Germany, Brazil), soft drinks (ASEAN countries and Middle East).[82][83]Most of the local sells are carried out via the eight major shopping centers, nine supermarkets and seven major markets.[82]

Transport[edit]

Bogor is a major transport center of Java. It contains 599.2 kilometers of roads (as of 2008) which cover 5.31% of the city area; 30.2 kilometers of the roads are of national and 26.8 km of prefectural importance.[84]The 22 transport lines are operated by 3,506 buses and minibuses. In addition, 10 bus routes connect the city with the nearest metropolitan area (4,612 buses) and 40 with other cities of West Java (330 buses).[85]

There are two major bus terminals, Baranangsiang and Bubulak. The former has an area of 22,100 m2and is dedicated to long-distance and freight traffic while the latter (area 11,850 m2) serves urban passenger routes.[86]A separate station is dedicated to tourist coaches and buses to the nearestSoekarno–Hatta International Airportin Jakarta, located about 55 kilometers from Bogor.[86]Recent years have seen a significant increase in the number of traditional Indonesianrickshaw(becak) at more than 2,000 units as of 2009.[87]TheBogor railway stationwas built in 1881, and currently serves about 50,000 passengers and has about 70 departures and 70 arrivals per day.[86]TheBogor Paledang railway stationopened in 2013 to serve trains toSukabumi.[88]

Housing and facilities[edit]

Residential buildings occupy 26.46% of the city, or 71.11% of its built-up area; 5–14-storey buildings dominate the central part and the outlying areas are mostly built up with single-storeyed houses.[89][90]The population rise in the 1990s–2000s due to the inflow of external workforce sharply increased the number of substandard housing, mainly on the outskirts of the city. More than half of the slums (1,242,490 m2) are located in northern Bogor, whereas their area is only 89,780 m2in the southern part of the city.[90][91]To improve this situation, the city administration launched a program of construction of cheap housing types (light prefabricated houses) in western Bogor. These houses combine reasonable rent ($22 per year[92]) at acceptable living conditions.[89]

Electricity to Bogor is supplied by the Indonesian state company Perusahaan Listrik Negara, which serves the provinces of West Java andBanten.Electricity is provided by more than ten regional thermal and hydroelectric power plants via two local transformer stations located in the Bogor districts of Cimahpar and Cibilong.[93]Whereas most of the houses (excluding some slum areas) are provided with electricity, street lighting covers only 35.38% of the city (4,193 light sources, as of 2007), however, the number of street lights is increasing at an annual rate of 10–15%.[94]

As of 2009, only 47% of Bogor is provided with clean tap water through a centralized water supply systems managed by state-owned Tirta Pakuan.[95]The municipal system takes water from rivers Cisadane (1240 liters per second), and three natural sources: Kota Batu, Bentar-Kambing and Tangka (410 liters per second). Although the water network has a total length of 741 kilometers and covers about 70% of the city, connection to it is often problematic for financial and technical reasons. More than half of residents use water wells or natural reservoirs.[95]

Garbage collection service covers 67% of the urban area. From about 800,000 m3of waste per year, about 90% is buried at an external landfill at Galuga, about 7% is recycled forcompostand about 3% is burned in five incinerators within the city.[96]

The seven cemeteries of Bogor are named by the city districts as Cilendek, Kayumanis, Situgede, Mulyaharja, Blender, Dreded and Gunung Gadung. The first six have the status of "public cemeteries" (Indonesian:Tempat pemakaman umum), and have no restrictions by religion or ethnicity. However, given the religious composition of Bogor, the cemeteries are predominantly Muslim, and Christian graves are located either in separate areas of cemeteries or in a small cemetery adjacent to churches.[97]Some mosques also have small burial plots.[98]Graves for the poor and nameless are mostly located at Kayumanis,[99]and Gunung Gadung cemetery is restricted to Chinese residents.[100]
