Mrt Jakarta

The Jakarta Mass Rapid Transit System is an ongoing transportation infrastructure project in Jakarta, the capital city of Indonesia. It consists of a partially elevated and partially underground railway system. Construction of the first phase of the project is expected to start in 2013 and is planned to be operational in 2016.

It is an urban metropolis with over 8 million inhabitants. It is predicted that over four million residents of the surrounding Jabodetabek area commute in and out of the city each working day. Transport issues have increasingly begun to attract political attention and it has been estimated that in 2020 without a major transportation breakthrough traffic jams will overwhelm the city. Since 1 980 more than twenty-five general and special subject studies have been conducted related to possible Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) systems in Jakarta.One of the major reasons for the delays in tackling the problem was the economic crisis of 1997-98. Before the crisis a Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT) scheme was considered as part of a new MRT calling for private sector involvement. After the crisis, the plan to rely on a BOT to provide financing proved infeasible and the MRT project was again proposed as a government-funded scheme. Current public transportation in Jakarta mainly consists of various types of buses, starting from the very small bemo and pickup sized mikrolet, to slightly larger minbuses and full sized city buses.There are also both two and four wheeled taxis. Current transport systems include widely used MetroMini and Kopaja cheap minibuses, and the TransJakarta bus rapid transit system, and the Jabodetabek Commuter Railway. [edit]Lines The rail-based Jakarta MRT is expected to stretch across over 108 kilometres, including 21. 7 km for the North-South Corridor (From Lebak Bulus to Kampung Bandan) and 87 km for East-West Corridor(From Balaraja to Cikarang). [2] [edit]North-South corridor The North-South corridor will be built in two phases. Phase I, will be constructed in advance connects Lebak Bulus to Bundaran HI along 15. km including 13 stations (7 elevated stations and 6 underground stations). The Indonesian ministry of Transport approved this plan in September 2010 and invited tenders and will be built at April 2012. [3] Phase II, will extend the North-South line from Bundaran HI to Kampung Bandan (7 underground stations and 1 ground-level station), targeted to operate in 2018 (accelerated from 2020 as the original plan[4]). [5] After completion of MRT Phase I and II, together with TransJakarta will serve 60 percent total trips made by Jakartans. edit]Phase I The first phase is 15. 7 kilometres (9. 8 mi) long from Lebak Bulus to Bundaran HI. The c onstruction project will begin in June 2011 and is expected to be completed in 2016 to serve 212,000 passengers per day. This expected capacity may be maxed out to 960,000 per day. The 15. 7 kilometers span expected to be covered in under 30 minutes.

I [edit]East-West corridor This corridor is currently in pre-feasibility study phase. The line is targeted to operate in 2027. [edit]Project Progress Progress of the first phase was funded through a loan by the Japan Bank for International Cooperation (JBIC), now merged into the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA). The loan number IP is 536 (signed November 2006) for engineering services. The engineering services loan is a pre-construction loan to prepare the construction phase.It consists of: Bas ic Design package, managed by the DGR (Directorate General of Railways, Ministry of Transport) Management and Operation package, managed by the Bappeda (Jakarta Regional Planning Board) Construction assistance in tender, managed by the PT MRT Jakarta On March 31, 2009, Loan Agreement 2 (LA2) for the amount of 48,150 billion Yen to build the Jakarta MRT System was signed by the Indonesian Government (represented by the Indonesian Ambassador for Japan) and JICA in Tokyo, Japan. [7] This loan is to be forwarded from the National Government to the Jakarta City Administration as a grant (on-granting agreement). 8] After the signing of the granting agreement for LA2, city administration will propose another two loan agreements for LA3 and LA4 to the central government. These proposals will become a lending agreement for the local government. The total amount of LA3 and LA4 addressed as a loan by the local government is about 71867 billion yen. This amount is based on the progress, outcome and absorbance of LA2. The total loan package from JICA for the development of the Jakarta MRT system is worth a total of 120 billion yen.Work on the basic design for the first phase of the current version of the project began in late 2010. The tender process was underway in late 2012 when the new governor of Jakarta, Joko Widodo, unexpectedly said that he wanted a review of the project. After several months of uncertainty governor Joko Widodo announced that the project would go ahead. He listed it as one of the priority projects in the Jakarta city budget for 2013. [9] Physical construction is expected to begin in 2013[10] and the line is expected to be operational by 2017. [edit]PT Mass Rapid Transit JakartaPT Mass Rapid Transit Jakarta (PT MRTJ) is a limited liability (Perseroan Terbatas) company founded by the Jakarta Provincial Government. Its establishment was approved by the provincial parliament (DPRD) on 10 June 2008 and final establishment was by notary act on 17 June 200 8. Its purpose is to operate the Jakarta MRT System. The shares are made up from 99% Jakarta Provincial Government and 1% PT Pasar Jaya (another Jakarta Reginal-Government-Owned-Company). PT MRTJ is classed as a Regional-Government-Owned-Company (Badan Usaha Milik Daerah-BUMD).The BUMD form for PT MRTJ is designed not to create profits for the shareholders, but instead to create flexibility in accessing alternative financing, which would otherwise be impossible if the company was directly part of the government. With this, the cost of tickets sold to clients will be reduced with some of the operational cost being subsidised by other sources. The BUMD form also ensures transparency and accountability through the shareholders' General Meeting, Decision Making and Reporting System which will be publicly available.

Have you ever had the feeling like you haven't done your best at something or the feeling that you're disappointing the people you care about most? Well Eve had that feeling multiple times especially in middle school. In middle school Eve experience lots of failure; failure with friendships, relationships, and rejection. Failure to me is being unhappy with yourself and not doing what you believe in.My 8th grade year in middle school was a earning experience that came along with lots of failure. The beginning of 8th grade was the easiest part of middle school because there was no drama and less friends. As time went by I gained more friends and more pressure was put on my shoulders. I learned a lot about friendships and the meaning of them. Losing the friends that meant the most to me is one of my failures and something that was challenging. Friendships from the past have a huge impact on the friendships that Eve made today.In middl e school I was always open to meeting new people and starting new reined friendships with anyone but now I realize that I can't do that without getting to know the person first. During my years in high school Eve been more selective with how I choose my friends. Eve learned that in order to trust someone in full and to consider them a good friend, I would have to get to know that person first. Throughout my high school experience Eve gained many friends and learned to trust them. Whenever I had a problem, I would turn to them for advice. Their advice always helped me through my problems and anything else I needed.Throughout my experience in high school and middle school, Eve learned a lot about friendship and values. Eve been making better decisions for myself and how I have been choosing my friends. How I chose my friends will help me in college because Eve had experience with good friends and bad friends. My experience with friends at school is teaching me so much about life. Midd le school and high school has helped me with better decision making when choosing friends. I will use this decision making in college to help me build new friendships.

The Cold War in Berlin Research Paper Example | Topics and Well Written Essays - 1750 words

The Cold War in Berlin - Research Paper Example He stated that if one was claiming that communism was good, he should come to West Berlin and see the capitalism taste. This was meant to demonstrate how well the capitalism ideology had spurred significant economic growth and political freedom in West Berlin. He also asserted that dividing people and putting them under oppression was not only contravention of individual human rights but a recipe to economic backwardness. He reiterated the need for a united people and pursuit of capitalism which was characterized by democracy â€Å"Freedom has many difficulties, and democracy is not perfect But we have never had to put a wall up to keep our people in, to prevent them from leaving us!† He demonstrated how West Berlin had prospered despite being physically separated from the rest of the world and directly championed for adoption of democracy as a tool towards capitalism before he gave a closing remark amidst a cheering crowd of how proud he was to be a West Berliner (Smyser, 200 9).It is worth to note that John. Kennedy’s visit was also meant for a meeting with the Soviet Union Leader Nikita Khrushchev in Vienna Austria for a retreat in terms of the oppressive rule over the East Berlin people. The meeting ended in a stalemate and increased tension between US and Soviet Union. At some point, the US threatened to react with military force if their rights in West Berlin were interfered with in any way by the communist Soviet Union. To achieve this, the second wall which was known as border wall 75 was created in 1975.

Engineering accomplishment-Air traffic control systems Essay

Engineering accomplishment-Air traffic control systems - Essay Example moved during the day with sufficient lighting and a clear sky. This meant that a pilot could easily see other aircrafts when taking off, landing or when on flight on the sky. Traffic avoidance was based on ‘see and be seen’ principle. This implied that aircrafts could only be flown in conditions that would easily allow them to see other aircrafts and change their flight paths to avoid others. All pilots were expected to abide by this principle and were also not allowed to fly the aircrafts under cloudy conditions. Furthermore, pilots were only allowed to fly the aircrafts in areas where visibility was not less than 3 miles. Nolan (2010) notes that pilots and aviation operators were comfortable with these rules since the aircrafts of those days were slow and pilots could easily see and avoid other aircrafts on flight making the establishment of more organized system of aircraft control unnecessary. Nevertheless, as technology advanced and people began to move all over the world in 1930s, their came a need of a more advanced air traffic control system to allow aircrafts to be flown at anytime, day or night, irrespective of prevailing condition leading to the establishment of instruments that would allow pilots to navigate the aircraft without having to depend on visual inference to the natural horizon. In addition, Navigation aids (navaids), which are ground-based systems, were also constructed to allow pilots to be able to control aircrafts without reference to ground (Gorton, 1998). When all these systems had been put in place, pilots could now be able to have easy take-off, travel en route and safely land in poor whether conditions that cannot allow them to see and avoid other aircrafts. This invention is indeed, a great accomplishment in the field of the aviation industry, which has helped improve aircraft movement throughout the country irrespective of whether condition, day or night. The reason being, it helps pilots in controlling the aircraft s thereby avoiding collision and accidents. For instance, it is reported that during peak hours in the US, approximately 5,000 aircrafts are flown on the sky every hour (Federal Aviation Administration, 2008). Mathematically, this figure translates to 50,000 airplanes being flown on the sky on a daily basis. This implies that without proper control mechanism, there could be high chances of these airplanes colliding with each other. It is here that air traffic control system comes in to ensure safe operation of aircrafts. For instance, a visit at most of the airports in Canada and the US, one thing for sure that one will see is an air traffic controller. The duty of an air traffic controller basically is to regulate aircraft take-offs and landings as required (Nolan, 2010). This is arguably the earliest method which involves the controller standing at a strategic position with colored flags which he or she uses to communicate with the pilots. For example, raising a green flag means t hat the pilot is at liberty to proceed with their planned landing or takeoffs. On the other hand, waving of a red flag implies that the pilot should hold on until controllers are sure that the pilots are free to proceed, when the green flag is waved according to Gorton (1998). This has indeed help reduce instances of aircraft accidents and collisions during landing and takeoff thereby restoring traveler’s confidence on the safety of aircrafts. However, since the safety of the aircraft is still has to be maintained on the sky this lead to the

Research, identify and discuss the 4 basic functions of management Essay

Research, identify and discuss the 4 basic functions of management. .Week TWO - Essay Example Having done a SWOT analysis, it can then proceed to making a more detailed strategic plan. An example of the planning stage is when a marketing manager designs a marketing plan in launching a new product. Wijesinghe enumerates various positive characteristics of planning such as being â€Å"goal-oriented, primacy, pervasive, flexible, continuous, involves choice, futuristic and involves mental exercise† (Wijesinghe, 2010, par 5). The second function of management is organizing. Organizing involves gathering all the resources of the company including the physical, human and financial resources. The tasks or activities that are needed to be done should be classified and assigned to the particular departments and individuals. Responsibilities are created and authorities delegated (Norman, n.d.). The organizing function of management is important because it encourages specialization, describes the work that must be done and by whom and it categorizes authority and command (Wijesinghe, 2010). Leading is the third management function. Under this function, the manager motivates and positively influences the employees so that they will be able to perform their tasks well. Managers should learn to communicate effectively with the employees to ensure that the company’s goals are achieved. Providing for monetary as well as non-monetary incentives may be necessary to influence and motivate the employees. Managers must be able to teach and assist the employees especially when they are faced with difficulties in performing their duties. The last function of management is controlling. Controlling involves â€Å"measuring achievement against established objectives and goals† (Norman, n.d., par 5). If there is any deviation from the achievement of the goals, the manager must identify the reason for the deviation and think of a way to correct it (Norman, n.d.). Monitoring and evaluating employee performance is a part
