CC impact towards Migration ??
• Climate Change impacts; the never ending debates
- complexity understanding increase  less linear way of thinking
- political intervention vs academicians & NGOs influence/advocate in creating public opinions (“CC
hysteria”; “mis-leading” public understanding; creates public confusion: better wait than do something
costly)
• Indonesia – Australia: a comparative study in the context of climate change
- Different geographical settings (physical and social-culture landscape); displacement, vulnerability
- Demographic Theory: migration flow from Indonesia to Australia (hypothesis)
• Is there any direct Climate Change impact on migration?
- Uncertain impact : problem of understanding decision making process (as well as complexity of phenomena)
and prediction methods. Moving decision is more complex process of making decision for most Asian people
(including Indonesia; if not forced) compare to Australia
- In terms of living system (system thinking: adaptive and mitigation): from mental models to reality, CC is
seems as an evolution change process rather than revolution (we still have time to improve adaptive capacity)
- Those problems gear to the capacity of adaptation development (especially dealing with localities
understanding)
• The Good, the Bad, and The Ugly scenario (Oli Brown, 2008)
• Conclusion
- CC and migration is a systemic complex phenomena where Ina. delaying intervention on “BAU” may be top
priority.
- Aussie can be put as one entity of regional system for living
- So what is the common ground between Ina. and Aussie dealing with CC and migration?  building
learning process for better understanding
INDONESIA AND CC PREDICTION
• Warming 0.2 to 0.3°C per decade
• Increase in annual precipitation across islands, except in the
southern hemisphere (projected to decline by 15%)
• Change in the seasonality of precipitation; parts of Sumatra and
Borneo may become 10-30% wetter by 2080’s (Dec-Feb); Jakarta
projected to be 5- 15% drier (Jun-Aug)
• 30-day delay in the annual monsoon, 10% increase in rainfall later in
the crop year (April-June), and up to 75% decrease in rainfall later in
the dry season (July–September)
• Mean sea level increase 31 mm by the next decade; and it is
predicted that about 2,000 island in Indonesia will disappear by 2030
• In case of Jakarta, the capital city of Indonesia, it is predicted that by
the 2050 some settlement areas and main harbour Tanjung Priok will
be flooded
Global Warming may caused increasing
sea level. It is predicted that by 2050
Tanjung Priok Port and Pantai Indah
Kapuk Real Estate in northern part of
Jakarta will be sank.

Typology of climate change impact (2050)
The Good
Population peaks mid-century around 9
billion and declines thereafter towards 7
billion
Rapid change in economic structure (less
materials intensity)
Clean Management Development
All big emission producer countries join the
international carbon emission commitment
Relatively low
Atmosphere concentration of CO2
stabilize around 600 ppm
Average temperature rise by 1.80 C
Sea level rise 18-38 cm
Migration increase by 5 – 10% along the
displacement areas
The Bad
Population peaks mid-century around 9
billion and declines thereafter towards 7
billion
Rapid change in economic structure (less
materials intensity)
The international commitment to reduce gas
emission is delay due to remain usage of
fossil fuel
Some funds are invested to adapt but not
enough
Relatively quite high
Atmosphere concentration of CO2
stabilize around 850 ppm
Average temperature rise by 2.40 C
(Stern report: a 30C temperature rise
would mean 1 to 4 billion people suffer
water shortage)
Sea level rise 21-48 cm
Millions of people would be temporarily
displaced by individual extreme weather
events.
The Ugly
Population peaks mid-century around 9
billion and declines thereafter towards 7
billion
Rapid change in economic structure
A “business as usual” scenario in
consuming fossil fuel
Relatively high
Atmosphere concentration of CO2
around 1550 ppm
Average temperature rise by 4.00 C
Sea level rise 29-59 cm
It may exceeding the 200 millions people
displaced by climate change

GoI Response to CLIMATE CHANGE
- As a consequence of COP-13 UNFCCC in Bali,
(December 2007), it has established a BALI ROAD
for 2012 and Post Kyoto Protocol.
- GoI established Dewan Nasional Perubahan Iklim
(DNPI); National Board for Climate Change
(Presidential Decree No.46/Th.2008), The
President of RI as the Head, Vice of Head:
Ministerial Coordination for Welfare Affairs, and 17
Ministries, and Meteorology and Climate Bureau as
the members. The MOE appointed to be supervisor
- GoI has allocated about 2 thousand billion rupiah
(+/- 256 billion Aus$) for improving mitigation
capacity towards CC.
