CHINATOWNS IN SUMATRA

-

 A lot of cities and towns in the world have a Chinese quarter, also in Sumatra. It is part of an urban morphology that is fascinating to discover. In Sumatra, some Chinese quarters are vivid and alive, some are dying or even almost disappear. 

During the monthly discussion of Pansumnet, we are going to listen to the stories about the Chinese Quarter of Labuan Deli in Medan and Footprints of the Chinese Quarter along the Jantan River in Siak (it was burned in 2018 that is why only has the footprints). 

Discussion is in Bahasa Indonesia.

Sumatra berperan besar dalam perdagangan antarpulau dan antarbangsa sejak zaman prasejarah. Catatan dan peta lama, juga tulisan laporan dari berbagai sumber telah menyebutkan di wilayah Sumatra Timur dahulu ada pos dan pelabuhan dagang yang disinggahi pedagang dari Tiongkok, India, dan Arab, yaitu Labuhan Deli.

Hingga datangnya Eropa turut mewarnai perubahan ruang kota, salah satunya permukiman orang-orang Tiongkok. Permukiman memiliki karakter tata bentuk dan ruang, juga mempunyai tatanan sosial dan filosofi kebudayaan penggunanya.

Bagaimana wujud permukiman orang Tiongkok di sebuah pos dan pelabuhan dagang Sumatra Timur yang tersohor sejak dulu tersebut, namun telah tersisih dari memori masyarakat kota saat ini, masih tertinggal?

Kisah lain tentang pemukiman masyarakat Tionghoa adalah di Tepian Sungai Jantan, Siak Sri Inderapura. Lokasi ini terbakar pada tahun 2018. Apa yang harus dilakukan untuk menyelamatkan sejarah Pecinan ini pasca kebakaran?

Le Corbusier's Ghetto (and how the Dutch deal with it)

Last night I took a part in an online discussion for television and live stream programs with the representatives of the Municipality of Amsterdam and the Housing Corporation Rochdale about living in Amsterdam Southeast. It was organized by the New Metropolis Zuidoost, a branch of Pakhuis de Zwijger, a think tank for urban and sustainability issues.  I had to be bold in five minutes that I had during the broadcasting. So what I said is that Amsterdam Southeast was built based on the ideals of Le Corbusier, the Swiss architect, that everyone no matter from which background has the right to light, air, and space. He dreamed of urban development that separated work, living, recreation, and various modes of mobility. This ideal was applied in Amsterdam Zuidoost in the 1960s to be the largest experiment ever in the world in terms of scale and innovations. The experiment was lead by Cornelis van Eesteren, the pioneer of modern architecture in the Netherlands. The reality showed that some...

INFILL DEVELOPMENT

Perpaduan antara bangunan lama dan baru selalu menarik perhatian saya karena saya percaya pelestarian pusaka (heritage conservation) haruslah aktual dan menjawab kebutuhan zaman. Jadi tidak semata-mata dan sama sekali bukan untuk nostalgia. Jika memang niat ada banyak cara untuk mempertahankan bangunan lama dan mengkombinasikannya dengan bangunan baru. Dengan cara ini pelestarian pusaka dan pembangunan baru secara simultan terakomodasi. Solusi seperti ini umumnya disebut Infill Development . Definisinya menurut BUILD, is the economic use of vacant land, or restoration or rehabilitation of existing structures or infrastructure, in already urbanized areas where water, sewer, and other public services are in place, that maintains the continuity of the original community fabric. Solusi Infill Development juga berdasar pada semakin meningkatnya kesadaran tentang pembangunan berkelanjutan dan pelestarian lingkungan hidup. Pendekatan Infill adalah tanggapan terhadap kebijakan pemerintahan ...
