Governor-General of Dutch East Indies. With several hundred thousand people living on an area of about 20 km2 (7.7 sq mi), the central part of Bogor
Bogor is one of the world's most densely populated areas. The city has a presidential palace and a botanical garden (Indonesian: Kebun Raya Bogor) – one of the oldest and largest in the world. It bears the nickname "the Rain City" (Kota Hujan), because of frequent rain showers. It nearly always rains even during the dry season.

History[edit]

The Kingdom of Sunda had its capital in Pakuan Pajajaran

Precolonial period[edit]

Further information: Pakuan Pajajaran The first mentioning of a settlement at present Bogor
Bogor dates to the 5th century when the area was part of Tarumanagara, one of the earliest states in Indonesian history.[5][6][7] After a series of defeats from the neighboring Srivijaya, Tarumanagara
Tarumanagara was transformed into the Sunda Kingdom, and in 669, the capital of Sunda was built between two parallel rivers, the Ciliwung
Ciliwung and Cisadane. It was named Pakuan Pajajaran, that in old Sundanese means "a place between the parallel [rivers]", and became the predecessor of the modern Bogor.[8][9]

Over the next several centuries, Pakuan Pajajaran
Pakuan Pajajaran become one of the largest cities in medieval Indonesia
Indonesia with population reaching 48,000.[9] The name Pajajaran was then used for the entire kingdom, and the capital was simply called Pakuan.[9][10][11][12][13] The chronicles of that time were written in Sanskrit, which was the language used for official and religious purposes, using the Pallava writing system, on rock stellas called prasasti.[6][14] The prasasti found in and around Bogor
Bogor differ in shape and text style from other Indonesian prasasti and are among the main attractions of the city.[6] In the 9–15th centuries, the capital was moving between Pakuan and other cities of the kingdom, and finally returned to Pakuan by King Siliwangi (Sri Baduga Maharaja) on 3 June 1482 – the day of his coronation. Since 1973, this date is celebrated in Bogor
Bogor as an official city holiday.[15][16] In 1579, Pakuan was captured and almost completely destroyed by the army of Sultanate of Banten,[17][18] ceasing the existence of the State of Sunda. The city was abandoned and remained uninhabited for decades.[9][15] Colonial period[edit] Dutch East India Company[edit] In the second half of the 17th century, the abandoned Pakuan as most of West Java, while formally remaining under the Sultanate of Banten, gradually passed under control of the Dutch East India Company
Dutch East India Company (VOC). The formal transition occurred on 17 April 1684 by signing an agreement between the Crown Prince of Banten
Banten and the VOC.[19] The first, and temporal, colonial settlement at Pakuan was a camp of lieutenant Tanoejiwa, a Sundanese employed by the VOC who was sent in 1687 to develop the area.[11][19][20] It was seriously damaged by the eruption on 4–5 January 1699 of the Mount Salak
Mount Salak volcano (Indonesian: Gunung Salak), however the concomitant forest fires removed much forest, leaving much area for the planned rice and coffee plantations.[11] In a short time, several agricultural settlements appeared around Pakuan, the largest being Kampung Baru (lit. "new village").[6] 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 modern Bogor
Bogor Regency.[19][20] The district was further developed during the 1703 Dutch mission headed by the Inspector General of the VOC Abraham van Riebeeck
Abraham van Riebeeck (the son of the founder of Cape Town
Cape Town Jan van Riebeeck
Jan van Riebeeck and later Governor of Dutch East Indies).[11][19] 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.[20] The area attracted the Dutch by a favorable geographical position and mild climate, preferred over the hot Batavia which was then the administrative center of the Dutch East Indies.[20] In 1744–1745, the residence of the Governor-General
Governor-General was built in Pakuan which was hosting the government during the summer.[20]

In 1746, by the order of the Governor-General
Governor-General Gustaaf 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.)[21][22] Around the same time, the first reference to Bogor
Bogor as 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.[23] Later this name became used for the whole city as the local alternative to Buitenzorg.[21] This name is believed to originate from the Javanese word bogor meaning sugar palm (Arenga pinnata), which is still used in the Indonesian language.[23][24] Alternative origins are the old-Javanese word bhagar (meaning cow), or simply the misspelling of "Buitenzorg" by the local residents.[23] The city grew rapidly in the late 18th – early 19th centuries.[20] This growth was partly stimulated by the temporary occupation of the Dutch East Indies
Dutch East Indies by United Kingdom in 1811–1815 – the British landed on Java
Java and other Sunda Islands
Sunda Islands to prevent their capture by Napoleonic France which then conquered the Netherlands. The head of the British administration Stamford Raffles
Stamford Raffles moved the administrative center from Batavia to Buitenzorg and implemented new and more efficient management techniques.[20][25] Rule of the Kingdom of the Netherlands[edit]

Bogor Palace

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. A botanical garden was set up nearby in 1817, which was one of the world's largest gardens in the 19th century.[20][21][26][27]

On 10 October 1834, Buitenzorg was seriously damaged by another eruption of the Salak volcanoes caused by an earthquake.[20][28] 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.[20] The Governor's decree of 1845 prescribed separate settlements of European, Chinese and Arab migrants within the city.[20] 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. By the end of the 19th century, Buitenzorg became one of the most developed and Westernized cities in Indonesia.[11][20] 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.[6][21] This status was revoked in the administrative reform of 1924, which divided the colony into provinces and set Buitenzorg as the center of West Java
West Java Province.[6] 1942–1950[edit]

During World War II, Buitenzorg and the entire territory of Dutch East Indies were occupied by Japanese forces; the occupation lasted from 6 March 1942 until the summer of 1945.[29] 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.[27] The city had one of the major training centres of the Indonesian militia PETA (Pembela Tanah Air – "Defenders of the Motherland").[30] On 17 August 1945, Soekarno and Hatta proclaimed 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 renamed Pasundan
Pasundan in 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.[31][32] In December 1949, Pasundan
Pasundan joined the Republic of the United States
United States of Indonesia
Indonesia (Indonesian: Republik Indonesia
Indonesia Serikat, RIS) established at the Dutch–Indonesian Round Table Conference
Dutch–Indonesian Round Table Conference of 23 August – 2 November 1949.[32][33] In February 1950, as a result of defeat of Pasundan
Pasundan in a quick military conflict with the Republic of Indonesia, the city became part of Indonesia, as formalized in August 1950,[32][33] and its name was officially declared as Bogor.[15][34] As part of Indonesia[edit] As part of independent Indonesia, Bogor
Bogor has a significant role in the cultural, scientific and economic development of the country and West Java
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.[11][35] In the 1990s–2000s, the city regularly hosted various international events, such as ministry-level meetings of the Asia-Pacific institutions[36] and the APEC summit of 15 November 1994.[37] Since 2008, a Christian church congregation in Bogor
Bogor has been embroiled with Islamic fundamentalists over the building permit for their new church.[38] Geography, topography, geology[edit]

Bogor and Mount Salak

The city is situated in the western part of Java
Java island, about 53 km south of the capital Jakarta
Jakarta and 85 km northwest of Bandung, the administrative center of West Java
West Java Province.[1] Bogor spreads over a basin near volcanoes Salak, which peaks at about 12 km south, and Mount Gede
Mount Gede whose top is 22–25 km south-east of the city.[39] The average elevation is 265 meters, maximum 330 m, and minimum 190 meters above sea level.[1] The terrain is rather uneven: 17.64 km² of its area has slopes of 0–2°, 80.9 km² from 2° to 15°, 11 km² between 15° and 25°, 7.65 km² from 25° to 40° and 1.20 km² over 40°;[40] the northern part is relatively flat and the southern part is more hilly.[41] The soils are dominated by volcanic sedimentary rocks.[41] Given the proximity of large active volcanoes, the area is considered highly seismic.[39] The total area of green space is 205,000 m², of which 87,000 m² are Bogor
Bogor Botanical Gardens, 19,400 m² are taken by 35 parks, 17,200 m² by 24 groves and 81,400 m² are covered with grass.[42] Several rivers flow through the city toward the Java
Java Sea. The largest ones, Ciliwung
Ciliwung and Cisadane, flank the historic city center. Smaller rivers, Cipakancilan, Cidepit, Ciparigi and Cibalok, are guided by cement tubes in many places.[39] 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.[43] Climate[edit] Bogor
Bogor has a tropical rainforest climate (Af) according to the Köppen climate classification,[44] and more humid and rainy than in many other areas of West Java
West Java – the average relative humidity is 70%,[39] the average annual precipitation is about 1700 mm, but more than 3500 mm in some areas.[39] Most rain falls between December and February. Because of this weather, Bogor
Bogor has the nickname "Rain City" (Indonesian: Kota hujan).[45][46] 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.[1]

The rapid population growth in Bogor
Bogor after 1960 is related to urbanization as well as the influx of workforce from other parts of the country.[51] The birth rate in 2009 was 563 children per 10,000 people, with the mortality value of 272. During the same year, 12,709 permanent resident moved in and 3,391 people left the city.[52] Men constituted 51.06% and women 48.94% of the population;[48] 28.39% of the inhabitants were under 15 years old, 67.42% were aged 15–65 years and 3.51% – over 65 years.[52] The 2005 estimate of the life expectancy is 71.8 years, which is the highest figure for West Java and one of the highest in Indonesia.[53] Most population (87%) are Sundanese, with considerable numbers of Betawi, Javanese, Chinese and other, often mixed ethnicities.[54][55] Virtually all adults are fluent in Indonesian – the official language of the country. Sundanese is used at home and in some public areas and events – for example, the solemn speech of the mayor at the City Day celebration of 3 June 2010 was delivered in Sundanese.[55] The local dialect of Sundanese significantly differs from the classical version both lexically and phonetically.[56][57] The majority of population (94%) are Muslims,[58] with just over 5% Christians. However, there are many Christian churches in the city,[59][60][61] as well as Buddhist (mostly in the Chinese community[62]) and Hindu
Hindu communities.

Administration[edit] The city is headed by a mayor, who is elected by the citizens every five years, together with a vice-mayor; in the past, the mayor was appointed by the provincial administration.[63] Diani Budiarto became the first elected mayor of Bogor
Bogor on 25 October 2008 and assumed his position on 7 April 2009.[65] Legislative power is provided by the City Council which consists of 45 people's representatives who are also elected by the residents for a 5-year term. Nine political parties consisting of five factions are represented in the Council.[66][67] The coat of arms of Bogor
Bogor is a rectangular heraldic shield with a pointed base and the side lengths ratio of 5:4, divided by a cross into four parts. The upper left quarter contains the National Emblem of Indonesia
Indonesia – the mythical bird Garuda, in the upper right is the presidential palace, in the bottom left is the Salak volcano, and in the lower right is the national Sundanese dagger kujang. The inscription on top reads "KOTA BOGOR" which translates to "THE CITY OF BOGOR".[68] Economy[edit]

Bogor
Bogor has developed automotive chemical and food industries;[69] its outlying areas are used for agriculture.[70] During the colonization, Bogor
Bogor was mostly producing coffee, rubber and high-quality timber. Chemical industry
Chemical industry was introduced to the city at the end of the 19th century,[11][20] 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
Bogor was 5.78% in 2002, 6.07% in 2003 and 6.02% in 2009.[69] At the end of 2009, the Gross Regional Product (GRP) was 12.249 trillion IDR[71] (approximately 1.287 billion USD[72]) and the investments amounted to 932.295 billion IDR.[71] Despite the economical growth, the number of citizens living below the poverty level (defined by not only cash income, but also access to basic social services[73]) is increasing, primarily due to the inflow of poor residents of the surrounding rural areas. In 2009, 17.45% of the population lived below the poverty level, almost twice higher than in 2006 (9.5%)[71] Minimum wage
Minimum wage is established by the West Java Governor at 2,658,155 IDR/month.[74]

In 2008 there were 3,208 officially registered industrial enterprises in Bogor
Bogor employing 54,268 people, more than half (32,237) of whom worked at the 114 largest companies.[76] 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.[70] 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) and sweet potato (480 acres, 3,480 tonnes).[77] 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).[78][79] 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.[80] Breeding aquarium fish and also catching them in their natural habitat is an important industry sector, which yielded 367,000 USD from 2008 export sales only, mostly to Japan and Middle East.[75] A substantial part of other Bogor
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).[81][82] Most of the local sells are carried out via the eight major shopping centers, nine supermarkets and seven major markets.[81] 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.[83] 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
West Java (330 buses).[84] There are two major bus terminals, Baranangsiang and Bubulak. The former has an area of 22,100 m² and is dedicated to long-distance and freight traffic while the latter (area 11,850 m²) serves urban passenger routes.[85] A separate station is dedicated to tourist coaches and buses to the nearest Soekarno–Hatta International Airport
Soekarno–Hatta International Airport in Jakarta, located about 55 kilometers from Bogor.[85] Recent years see a significant increase in the number of traditional Indonesian rickshaw (becak) at more than 2,000 units as of 2009.[86] The train station of Bogor
Bogor was built in 1881, and currently serves about 50,000 passengers and has about 70 departures and 70 arrivals per day.[85] 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.[87][88] 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 m² in southern part of the city.[88][89] To improve this situation, the city administration launched a program of construction of cheap housing types (light prefabricated houses) in the western Bogor. These houses combine reasonable rent ($22 per year[90]) at acceptable living conditions.[87] Electricity to Bogor
Bogor is supplied by Indonesian state company Perusahaan Listrik Negara, which serves the provinces of West Java
West Java and Banten. Electricity is provided by more than ten regional thermal and hydroelectric power plants via two local transformer stations located in the Bogor
Bogor districts of Cimahpar and Cibilong.[91] 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%.[92] As of 2009, only 47% of Bogor
Bogor is provided with clean tap water through a centralized water supply systems managed by state-owned Tirta Pakuan.[93] 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.[93] Garbage collection service covers 67% of the urban area. From about 800,000 m3 of waste per year, about 90% is buried at an external landfill at Galuga, about 7% is recycled for compost and about 3% is burned in five incinerators within the city.[94] The seven cemeteries of Bogor
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.
