Added rivers, modified config.bmp to better reflect the location of real-world cities on the island, and finally, correcting the title of the original upload which has been nagging me for 20+ years now: it's part of the Philippines, not Indonesia, although the two are pretty close geographically and culturally so I understand the confusion. Note (2026-05-28): the region can still be rendered using the in-game CTRL+SHIFT+ALT+R hotkey: In the game's Regions folder, create a new folder then copy config.bmp into it. Download the grayscale topographic image shown below - this can be placed wherever, but for convenience it can be placed in the same new folder. Load the new region named after that folder in the game: it should show as a blank flat region with city boundaries defined by the config.bmp Press CTRL+SHIFT+ALT+R, then select the grayscale image downloaded along with the config.bmp earlier. Note that it has to be converted specifically to a black-and-white grayscale image if it hasn't been already. The terrain rendering will take several minutes especially for larger maps.-

Bonus map this week... it's Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia (for SimCity 4). Kuala Lumpur is the capital and largest city of Malaysia. It is home to 7.5 million people. It is also home to the Petronas Towers, formerly the world's tallest buildings from 1998 to 2004. The map is 24 x 20 large city tiles and is accurately scaled based on DEM data. Some elevations were compressed to accommodate game water. In order to install the map you will need wouanagaine's mapper or terraformer as the file is in SC4M format. I hope you can put this map to good use, enjoy! -TCC View My Full Map Catalogue Here:- 2 Comments

Welcome Back to my City Journal, "Touring the World"! All Cities shown are inspired by reality, but may have subtle differences with their real-life counterparts. These differences may be due to game constraints... being in a Mirror Universe... or... just because. For this entry, we'll be visiting Singapore! SINGAPORE, a clean, safe, efficient and wealthy city-state located on an island in hot and humid Southeast Asia. Built on the tip of the Malayan Peninsula along the Strait of Malacca, it is a major trade, finance, shipping and tech hub and a popular tourist destination. The country (and the city) are built on a relatively small land area sandwiched between two much larger countries, Malaysia to the north and Indonesia to the south. Despite its small size, the country is the most developed economically in Southeast Asia with a standard of living that is among the top ranked in the world. It is home to many international businesses as well as first-class education, research and health facilities. Its infrastructure is also amongst the best in the world. We begin by flying over Singapore. Here we see Singapore's Central Business District (CBD), the Marina Bay area, Sentosa Island (a resort island located south of the Singapore "mainland", where many Singaporeans spend their weekends) and some of the other surrounding areas. And now let's begin our day in Singapore! First sunrise along the Singapore River which runs adjacent to Singapore's CBD. Usually at this hour it is fairly quiet with the only activity being morning joggers getting their exercise routine in before the weather gets too hot, though even at this hour, its usually around 80-85'F already. As the day progresses, Singapore's CBD gets busier, bustling with office workers toiling away for both locally-based companies as well as major international and global corporations, especially in the areas of finance and banking, which has traditionally been a key industry of Singapore's strong economy. Local banking corporations such as United Overseas Bank (UOB) and Oversea-Chinese Banking Corporation (OCBC) are based here. In addition, many global banks such as ANZ, Citibank, Standard Chartered, HSBC, JP Morgan, BNP Paribas have regional headquarters in Singapore's CBD. In the last decade or so, an ever increasing amount of global tech firms have also moved into the area, including the likes of Google, Apple, Samsung and ASUS. Along the Singapore River is Clarke's Quay, a very popular dining and nightlife destination for both tourists and locals. Many restaurants and bars line the river and these businesses are operated in traditional Singapore "shophouses", a type of colonial-era architecture unique to Singapore, Malaysia and parts of Indonesia. Drop in here for some amazing seafood, or a nice cold locally-brewed Tiger Beer, or perhaps something stronger...? Near the CBD is Marina Bay, home to the famous iconic landmark Marina Bay Sands Hotel & Casino, with its "surf board" infinity pool connecting the tops of three hotel towers, and Gardens By the Bay, a 250-acre nature park. Both Marina Bay Sands and Gardens By the Bay were built on re-claimed land. And now let's take a short diversion to Sentosa Island, where Singapore goes to play and spend its weekends. The island features beaches, two world-famous PGA golf courses, some historical landmarks and some of the most expensive neighborhoods in the world. We'll visit some of these areas in Singapore: Part 2, but for this entry, let's visit Resorts World Singapore, an integrated resort on Sentosa Island and the island's biggest tourist attraction. Resorts World Singapore features a hotel, casino and mega-mall as well as Universal Studios Singapore. An overview of Universal Studios Singapore. Although not as big as the ones in the United States, Japan or China, it is the only Universal theme park in Southeast Asia and is quite the popular attraction. Some of the more popular parts of the park are Jurassic Park, Springfield and Transformers: The Ride. The park can be accessed by road (the massive car park is located underground beneath the park itself - see if you can spot the ventilation shaft), monorail (followed by a short tram ride to the main entry area) or by foot through an air conditioned, semi-covered water-front "moving walkway" that connects the Resort with Vivo City (a mall on the "mainland") and the cruise ship terminal (also on the mainland). Revenge of the Mummy, located in the "Ancient Egypt" section of Universal Studios. A roller coaster, with you guessed it... mummys! Glass covered stage area for shows, Nickelodeon Nick Toons and Mel's Drive-In Diner. The main park entry area featuring the famous "Universal Globe" that is present at all Universal theme parks around the world, as well as the construction site of the park's first major expansion since opening. If theme parks aren't your thing, perhaps some shopping along Orchard Road, Singapore's high-end and exclusive shopping street, home to many top of the line designer brands. One of the more unique buildings is the pagoda-inspired Tang's Plaza, located at the intersection or Orchard and Scotts Roads. The base of Tang's Plaza is home to the flagship store of TANGS, a locally based high-end department store that sells everything from apparel/clothes to kitchen-wares and home goods. The top floors are occupied by the Marriott hotel. Another view of Tang's Plaza as well as an ERP (Electronic Road Pricing) toll gantry. Singapore was one of the first places in the world to implement electronic-only tolling on its roadways. Singapore's CBD is also subject to "congestion pricing" where tolls vary based on time of day and demand. Given the lack of space, Singapore's government has encouraged its citizens to use public transit as opposed to driving. Unlike many western countries, Singapore's public transit system is top notch, clean, safe, efficient and always on-time. Taxis in Singapore are also relatively affordable when compared to other countries and taxi operators are governed by strict rules that ensure trustworthy and honest drivers and clean and safe vehicles. After a long day of touring Singapore, its time to get some dinner. A popular spot is East Coast Seafood Centre, located in East Coast Park about half way between the CBD and Singapore's Changi Airport. Here you will find famous local restaurants such as JUMBO Seafood, Long Beach and others serving the famous Singapore Chili-Crab. Each restaurant does its own take on the dish, so its worthwhile to try them all. The restaurants are housed in open-air buildings and the tables are mostly located outside and along the water. A perfect atmosphere for seafood and beers! How about an after-dinner swim? Let's return to Marina Bay Sands and check out the world-famous infinity pool with its sweeping 53rd floor views of Singapore's CBD. And that wraps up our day in Singapore! Good night and we will see you again soon for Part 2! Thanks for visiting! You can also follow my CJ's and other content on Instagram.

Use SC4MAPPER to import into the game Region size: 100x176 small tiles (25x44 large tiles) Thailand is a Southeast Asian country. It's known for tropical beaches, opulent royal palaces, ancient ruins and ornate temples displaying figures of Buddha. In Bangkok, the capital, an ultramodern cityscape rises next to quiet canalside communities and the iconic temples of Wat Arun, Wat Pho and the Emerald Buddha Temple (Wat Phra Kaew). Nearby beach resorts include bustling Pattaya and fashionable Hua Hin. Included is a map of all the provinces overlaid on the region map. -

It took 4 days to make this, over 100 land data tiles, borders and rivers drawn by hand, one of my largest regions, with almost 400 large city tiles. I even had to fix up the coastline a little. But it's finally here Vietnam is a Southeast Asian country known for its beaches, rivers, Buddhist pagodas and bustling cities. Hanoi, the capital, pays homage to the nation’s iconic Communist-era leader, Ho Chi Minh, via a huge marble mausoleum. Ho Chi Minh City (formerly Saigon) has French colonial landmarks, plus Vietnamese War history museums and the Củ Chi tunnels, used by Viet Cong soldiers. To render this map in SimCity, you must use SC4Mapper -
Special 10th Anniversary and Sukamaju-Tanjung Angin Revisited
Forsma7 posted a City Journal entry in Karasem V 4.12 (AIN)
Today its basically 10 years after I posted my first entry on Karasem CJ. Since then its been a very long journey out. from the pure 100% eyecandy, then experimenting on makes it semi functional and improvement in its quality in general, out from multiple long inactivity and revival but I managed to stay on this theme together with my East Asian Theme in SimCity 4 until today. Infact some of the area on today's entry basically just made few hrs before I posted this. basically my first picture on this CJ about Tanjung Angin Port, taken from the post 10 years ago. Karasem was actually made by my concept on Imaginary region of Southeast Asia. From around 2005 I already created concept on imaginary region of Southeast Asia based heavily where I grew up which is Java Island, Indonesia but this concept never really come into truth other than my hand drawn map (which I lost now). I tried to put it into SC2k which what I played back in the day however its still limited due to sc2k limitation. Up to 2008, I got my hand on SimCity 4 where initially I just play it vanilla until I started to use mods later that year. in 2009, first concept of imaginary Southeast Asian region finally started to realized in SimCity 4 with me started to make East Rockcoast MD in SC4Devotion. At first the style not even close to southeast asia, but toward the end of it in April 2010 it started to shape itself into one. one of the remaining survived picture of East Rockcoast, showing westrn part of Kemayoran City. And then around mid 2010, I started to work on a fictional nation named Melaka Timur (en: East Malacca, which named after the Strait of Malacca) however due to some problem (due it being an offensive word in other language) I changed it into Karasem which I derived from Karang Asem (which was randomly came into my mind back then). then concept of Karasem basically founded in around August 2010. I started to create custom lots out of the maxis prop and some other mods (like japanese houses, colonial styled buildings, slums, favelas etc) and I honestly enjoyed it. Firstly I just make eye candy park/landmarks lot then I evolved to make myself growable lots and so on Old Picture from Karangutara, from 4th update dated November 13 2010. Probably one of the most iconic picture from Karasem, first time showcasing urban area in Developing Southeast Asian Country. represented by Pondok Daun, Cibebek Province. I didnt posted my updates in ST CJ for update 6 to 26. Finally in August 2012 I'm back posting my updates regularly in Simtropolis at 2nd Karasem CJ Started also from 2012 annually I posted "Holiday Traffic" entry timed with the Eid Holiday Season on that year to reflect the home coming traffic for people from major urban areas to their hometown. I posted it every year either as full entries or just a simple pictures except in 2020 due to lockdown First "Holiday Traffic" annual entry picture from August 2012. Latest "Holiday Traffic" annual entry picture from June 2019. In 2013 I started other SC4 project based on East Asian (mostly Japanese) country: Nakama (also Nakahara later on). and since then Karasem basically become my 2nd priority on work. Karasem get regular updates until January 2015 (Update 39) where I posted "Final Update" on Karasem thinking to actually stop doing my Southeast Asian style and focus entirely on East Asian one. Banner of Karasem "Final Update" on January 2015 However. I changed my mind 6 months later and started working on Cibebek Metropolitan Area where I focused more on the transit works and the proper concept of city. It took me 1 year before posting the first update (Update 40) announcing the return of Karasem (which is this CJ). Since then I posted several updates until 2018 where I started to focus more on Discord (including ST discord) and kinda left myself inactive on this site for that reason lol Picture from Tanah Baru, Cibebek as the returning entry of Karasem after its hiatus. Then 2 years later here we are. my last update on Karasem was about Tanjung Pasir revamp (update 48). I was going to post my update 49 which was about Holiday Traffic in 2020 however as I mentioned above, because of lockdown and I reflect that special update to what in real life it didnt happened. +-------------------------+ Anyway long story, time for the proper update I want to show. Similar like what happened to the latest update of Nakahara (Hagikaze) This update concepts basically made few weeks beforehand so I need to do it from scratch instead of continuing from my old stuffs. The general concept of the update is to present the first areas presented for Karasem which is Sukamaju and Tanjung Angin but in my latest style on Southeast Asian styled SC4. Reflected from 2010, I completely started over the area in blank new but still maintain the original idea of it. I would like to start from where it was started at the very beginning, Tanjung Angin Port: Pictures from Tanjung Angin Oil Facility. The general idea of Tanjung Angin now turned from general cargo port into mostly consist of Oil Facility, refinery and distribution center together with minor general cargo port facility nearby (not done by the making of this update). This time I tried to model it as realistic as possible (might still consindered to be fail but I digress) after several examples I took which are Balikpapan and Cilacap Oil Facility. Housing Areas east of the facility owned by the Facility Operator: PT Pertamax Oil TBK Tanjung Angin itself is a district in Sukamaju Regency, just south border of Sukamaju Town where the regency administrative center located. outside of the oil and other port facility it also consist of minor towns. Areas in east of the Oil Facility, still owned by locals, Tanjung Angin Overview of Tanjung Angin Oil Facility. Other than Tanjung Angin first entry also introduced Sukamaju Town (refer to the first update link) located just north of it. In this version of Sukamaju its now properly sized town for regency seat. kinda modeled after similar towns/small cities around Java with its features includes a station (if that town passed by a rail), Alun-Alun (town square/park), Market, and a mosque. Sukamaju City Center, includes Sukamaju Station, Alun-Alun Sukamaju, market and Masjid Raya Sukamaju Sukamaju itself located in northeastern part of Cibebek Province, about 90km Southeast its nearest major city, Pondok Daun and 130km Northeast of Cibebek-Kota Baru Metropolitan area. Sukamaju Regency has population of 306k, 82k of them resides at Sukamaju district town where the regency seat located. Jl Raya Sukamaju-Ciujung in Western Sukamaju heading to Ciujung to the west. Areas in northern Sukamaju district Sukamaju border in the east marked with Cikamulya River, flowing throughout the regency. Jl Raya Sukamaju-Karangutara crossing Cikamulya River (the smaller bridge was old one before the road enlarged) Cikamulya River in Northeastern Sukamaju. (click here for full size 5mb mosaic of Cikamulya River in Sukamaju) Jl Raya Sukamaju-Karang Utara northeast of Sukamaju Distance between Sukamaju town center and Tanjung Angin port is around 5km connected mainly by Jl Raya Tanjung Angin to the south. Jl Raya Tanjung Angin in southern Sukamaju Overview of Sukamaju center Sukamaju has 2 main access from the nearest Ciujung-Karang Utara Expressway: Sukamaju Timur exit which located east of the town and Tanjung Angin exit which located in south between it and Tanjung Angin Ciujung-Karang Utara Expressway near Sukamaju Sukamaju Timur ramp exit. Sukamaju Timur access to the Jl Raya Sukamaju-Karang Utara Overview of the area That its all for today, I really want to make something better and bigger for 10th anniversary like the flashback on each year but instead its already too late to change the idea. Lets hope if this CJ can stay for next 10 years whether it stays in SimCity 4 platform or moved it to Cities Skylines which I still personally prefer sc4 as my city building game. Thank you for visiting!- 5 Comments

Laos is a Southeast Asian country traversed by the Mekong River and known for mountainous terrain, French colonial architecture, hill tribe settlements and Buddhist monasteries. Vientiane, the capital, is the site of the That Luang monument, where a reliquary reportedly houses the Buddha’s breastbone, plus the Patuxai war memorial and Talat Sao (Morning Market), a complex jammed with food, clothes and craft stalls. Land borders clearly marked. Enjoy! -Xeph xoxo- 1 Review

Update 43: "Nightfall ~ Evening Stars" (Kelan, Meriah)
Forsma7 posted a City Journal entry in Karasem V 4.12 (AIN)
This update about Meriah, Karasem which I havent show in ST for 2.5 years (since last update of Karasem V4.7). I was thinking this CJ actually about Cibebek-Kota Baru area only but I have work in meriah which I havent show in a while so I changed it into fully Karasem CJ. Update 43: Nightfall ~ Evening Stars Kelan is a District in Meriah Regency located just in south of Border of Meriah. It's bordering with Jatibening City in the east, Meriah in north and Sukamulya District in south. This district with population of 56.234 (2015) include the Airport of Meriah, Kota Meriah International Airport. location map of Kelan. Kelan Utara is a subdistrict in Kelan, taken most of northern part of this district Kelan Utara Interchange of Meriah Outer Ring Road (MORR) south ring. Kelan Utara consist mainly the middle class suburban area as well as several undeveloped land and even agricultural areas. Jl H. Solihin (road from west to east) in Kelan Utara. There are several industrial area in Kelan Utara. mostly minor one. Industrial area in Kelan Utara. Jl H. Solihin in Kelan Utara (again) Sarang Alang, another subdistrict in Kelan. Located just in west of Kelan Utara. Suburban area in Sarang Alang featuring Jl Sarang Alang. Jl Sarang Alang actually used to be Airport main access road toward Kota Meriah International Airport before the main expressway access done back in 1983. Jl Sarang Alang Ramp of Meriah Outer Ring Road (MORR) bound for Airport Main Enterance-Curug Jl Raya Curug, a major road through Kelan that connecting Jatibening and Curug is one of arterial road of this district as it connect Kelan with Jatibening and Western part of Meriah. Jl Raya Curug in Sarang Alang. another picture of Jl Raya Curug in Sarang Alang With its location just neighboring airport, Buildings in Kelan Utara (Kelan in general) have height restriction. Jl Raya Curug in Kelan Utara featuring airport gate. In fact, Kelan Utara Interchange directly located in the north of airport eastern runway. The area in the south of interchange is known for the plane spotters to take nice view of Plane landing area in the south of Kelan Utara IC MORR (Meriah Outer Ring Road) is an expressway looping Kota Meriah area. the first phase of southern part which include Kelan-Cipelak built on 1992-1997. In Kelan, this expressway served by 1 interchange (Kelan Utara IC) and 1 junction toward Kelan-Sukasari Feeder Expressway MORR in Kelan Utara bordering with Kota Meriah International Airport (KMIA) Hangars. Meriah Outer Ring Road in the east of Kelan Utara IC Kelan Junction, Kelan-Sukasari Expressway termites with MORR. MORR in the east of Kelan Junction The construction of the expressway/highway back in 90s leaving several minor roads that crossed the highway disconnected, leaving the dilemma of major highway project in the dense area like southern Meriah. Although, most of newer highway project in Karasem overcome the situation by building the streets in the side of highway to avoid disconnecting the minor roads by divert them to the nearest crossing. one of the example of disconnected road by the highway. (image rotated 90 degree) Meriah government did plan to build the light rail in pararel with the expressway since 2015 in order to fulfill the commuter around the city needs although this plan seems to be shelved for now as the city government focused on expanding Meriah Mass Rapid Transit System (M2RT) which seems more successful to bring more people around city to use public transit. Closer look in Meriah Outer Ring Road (image rotated 90 degree). the government considered to build the light rail parallel with this highway. As for the public transit, Kelan at this point dont have any access toward any mass transit, just several routes of city buses and paratransit toward Jatibening or Pemogan. In future, M2RT plan to expand a mass transit system which is a metro toward airport through Kelan. Jl Raya Curug intersect with Jl Raya Kelan which is the main corridor road in Kelan. Kelan-Sukasari Expressway is a feeder expressway toward the western coast of Meriah Regency which going through Kelan. although this expressway criticized for having low demand, it built in 2004 toward Kelan Utama IC where it termites at this moment in order to relieve the overcapacity Kelan Utara IC. Jl Raya Curug Crossed Kelan Sukasari Expressway. overview of Kelan Utara overview of Kelan Utara featuring part of airport Evening shot of Kelan Utara Jl Raya Curug intersect Jl Raya Kelan at Night During night this area can be seen from every single flight toward Meriah International Airport clearly as it located directly next toward the airport.

Update 41: "Blue Kaleidoscope" (Pasar Biru)
Forsma7 posted a City Journal entry in Karasem V 4.12 (AIN)
Allright, its been few days after posted the poll and we got 14 yes and 2 no to repost the entries here. Since the poll say that I should repost the picture from SC4D entries, I will post it here. This is the next entry which originally posted in 9/3/2017. +----------------------------------+ Update 41: Blue Kaleidoscope Note: 万華鏡 = KaleidoscopePasar Biru (literally means Blue Market) is a subdistrict of Cibebek Utara District which also bordering Saika District where newer CBD of Cibebek located. During 1970s, this area known for its second hand markets, cheap stuffs and not forget "kaki lima*" foods. Later during the rapid urbanization of Cibebek-Kota Baru Metropolitan area, this area become gentrified with the major stores, malls and department stores replaced the cheap traditional market which now mostly moved toward pasar Krajan northwest of this area. But this area still hold the original spirit of the location for its closure toward the city center and its position as a commercial area. Simpang Pasar Biru where this area was grown from. Jl Saika Raya intersect with Jl Raya Pasar Biru Most of buildings in the main road built in 1980 or later. Simpang Pasar Biru at night Pasar Biru Station is the main station in Pasar Biru. This station currently serves Ciasem Route (Cibebek Raya Station-Ciasem) and Cibebek Ring Route. Previously this station is also serves the Cikaas Route which had the route from Pasar Biru toward Cikaas Station, since the completion of the shortcut of Cikaas Route toward Saika Station in 2007 due to the demand of local commuters, Cikaas Route redirected from Pasar Biru to Saika Station with current main route from Cibebek Raya-Saika-Cikaas-Bukit Pesona. Although so, this station still serves the minor feeder line of Cikaas line. Area around Pasar Biru Station now full of commercial center such as malls and stores. Pasar Biru Station and Pasar Biru Overpass (Jl Raya Pasar Biru). Several area in Pasar Baru Subdistrict also consist of residential areas. South of Pasar Biru Overpass featuring the railway. the left pair of rail for the Ciasem Route and Cibebek Ringroad, right one for former Cikaas Route which currently for either freight train straight toward port and minor feeder line. Southern Pasar Biru in night featuring Sunada Underpass. In Jl Saika Raya, southern Pasar Biru has several office buildings. This area directly bordering the Saika Utara CBD. note: kaki lima = what people here call the street side vendor which consist of cart or something like that.Thats all for today, hope you like it. +-----------------------------------+ Replies: Thank you very much! well you see that the riverside slum is the main theme of that update.

Update 40: Limited Love (Tanah Baru, Cibebek Utara)
Forsma7 posted a City Journal entry in Karasem V 4.12 (AIN)
Well here we go again... I decided to bring this theme back into City Journal realm back earlier this year. Actually I've done several updates (40-46b) since this February in SimCity 4 Devotion but well, I might repost it here so everyone can actually see what I work. This first entry is actually a complete repost of Update 40 Karasem: Limited Love (17/02/08) +----------------------------------+ Update 40: Limited Love Cibebek Utara, Cibebek, Karasem. A district in Karasem's 2nd largest city where don't want to live but have to be.... atleast that for several people live in this area inside the northern part of Cibebek. People can shop a cheap stuff into high-end stuff in the Plaza Tanah Baru, a shopping centre built in 2003 alongside with the surrounding commercial area. A commercial center next to Simpang Tanah Baru (Tanah Baru Intersection) where Jl Saika Raya (north-south) meets Jl Raya Krajan (west-east) This commercial area, where you can enjoy walking alongside the road while shopping or just enjoy the atmosphere is really feels like you are not in Northern part of Cibebek. Commercial area in the east of Plaza Tanah Baru Alongside with Jl Raya Krajan, the commercial area is rather elite even compared to those in the main road. Jl Raya Krajan near the Ruko Plaza Tanah Baru In the night this area is bright, either from the evening traffic near intersection which sometime a worst situation or maybe from the lightning system inside the shoping centre Simpang Tanah Baru at night This area actually not very far from a mass transit station aside from local buses or paratransits. Tanah Baru Station located below the overpass of Jl Saika Raya which one of the main option for the commuter in Cibebek Metropolitan Area. Its located in the Jl Saika Raya which is Cibebek's main corridor toward the downtown areas where located in the south of Tanah Baru. Tanah Baru Station featuring Cibebek's Cibebek Railway 4000 series train. Nightshot of Tanah Baru Station Yeah this area actually close toward city centre and have easy access, why it so miserable? lets go to the north of the Intersection to see whats happening.... A hypermarket in Jl Saika Raya Tanah Baru . Alongside Jl Saika Raya it still rather nice with the exception of the daily morning and evening commute time where it's a real bumper to bumper. Jl Saika Raya crossing the Krajan River People can see something different from the bright side of the city by visiting the Krajan River which located in the middle of Tanah Baru Subdistrict... Not only at the Krajan River, much of the Cibebek Utara district of the city actually consist of slums and semipermanent settlements which prone towards fires and other risks. Behind the hypermarket in Tanah Baru.. Going deeper from the main street shows the other side of this area.... People come here anywhere from Cibebek Province or other places in Karasem somewhere in Tanah Baru Utara Subdistrict. east or west from Jl Saika Raya, there are slums... A slum area in Tanah Baru Timur Subdistrict. But, people in the riverside have much worse situation than any other area in Cibebek Utara District.... Not only live in the bad situation, they also in border of life when they got into the river whether incidentally or intentional since the river had a rather strong flow eventhough it has too many stuff in it, like plastic bag and used beds (no joke, somepeople really throw away their used beds into river). Riverside slum at Tanah Baru Utara Subdistrict Like in Jl Saika Raya, Jl Raya Pasar Krajan looks well and lively compared what behind it.... Tanah Baru Timur Subdistrict is one of area in Cibebek prone to flooding. Back in 2014, the flood breaks into this area, it even hit the Jl Raya Krajan in the south of it, disturbing the citizens activities. Riverside slum at Tanah Baru Timur Subdistrict Jl Tanah Baru Timur Dalam, an access road toward the residential area in North Cibebek crosses Krajan River. The slum extend until the border of Sawahan and Tanah Baru Timur Subdistrict in the National Route 2 Eastern part of Tanah Baru Timur Subdistrict featuring Karasem National Route 2 which connect Cibebek city centre with Keshan in Northern Karasem. As in the night, this area of city is very different with Plaza Tanah Baru where it's bright... Tanah Baru Timur riverside slum at night In order to reduce the risk of flood, the city government planned to do a revitalization alongside Krajan river which involve to reduce the river sedimentation as well to create the wall alongside the river. This already done in the Krajan River downstream as seen in Krajan Utara Subdistrict where the river in better situation. Krajan Riverside in Krajan Utara Subdistrict. Cibebek Expressway, the city main highway crossing the Krajan River in Krajan Utara Subdistrict. Although the area around the river still rather poor looking, this area which flooding in 2014, no longer flooding during 2016 flood which hit the Tanah Baru area due to the river revitalization work done in 2015 which done with several violence... Jl Kampung Dalam, where the previous work of revitalization meet the old looking riverside.... The city government planned to revitalize the river futher upstream, but this involve the displacement and eviction of the riverside settlement which mostly illegal. People alongside the river in Tanah Baru currently in the worrisome. They have a time bomb ticking where the have to move out from where they live now. Back in Tanah Baru Utara.... They don't know where to live after this, where they have daily activities. Other place just too expensive for them to afford..... To handle the displacement, city government currently building several housing project for people that affected by the project or other people around Cibebek Utara slums... First and second highrise building of the housing project currently being built in Jl Tanah Baru Timur Dalam. This area covered by the local bus with route from Tanah Baru Station toward Semawu in Northern part of Cibebek. Rusun Tanah Baru 1 & 2 (Tanah Baru Housing Project 1 and 2) alongside the Tanah Baru Timur Dalam. Other tower built literally right next toward Tanah Baru Plaza's commercial area which was a donation from the Plaza's developer Rusun Tanah Baru 3 (Tanah Baru Housing Project 3) built in Jl Raya Krajan in the south of the river. Some of the people think the housing project just too far away form they current location where it will be more difficult for people to reach where they have their activities beforehand... Tanah Baru Plaza with the housing project tower under construction. However, it is still very controversial whether it is a right thing to displace people in force as it might a violation toward the human rights. The citizens around the city still arguing about this.... Tanah Baru Timur Subdistrict. Whichever the right decision, people of Cibebek just hope this area will no longer become the city eyesore without humiliating some people.. Thats all for today. hope you enjoy this rather depressing update.. and oh maybe something not depressing? Saika Utara CBD alongside the Jl Saika Raya. Before going further, I might ask all of the viewer here, should I repost every single of my Southeast Asian City from SC4 Devotion here, it might took a while but I will catch up with update 47 which will come soon. if no, then I might just jump toward Update 47 as the next update of this CJ. oh here's the link to my entries in SC4D: https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/index.php?topic=12773.440 +---------------------------------------------------------+ Replies: Bringing replies to the comment of Nakama Update 6: Memories of Snow: Well thanks a lot! trainspotting is interesting after all to search and took picture of your favorite train series...

Our journey to Southeast Asia begins with a trip through the scenic, mountainous landscape of northern Vietnam. For thousands of years, terraces have turned these hillsides into effective farmland - with rice being the staple crop for many. For as far as the eye can see, these terraces stretch on into the distance - a never ending showcase of simple, rural beauty. Our next stop is the mysterious Chocolate Hills of Bohol Island in The Philippines. Some 1,776 brownish-red hills dot the landscape for miles around, and a variety of wild myths try to explain their existence. Some legends state that the hills are the leftovers of massive pebbles thrown by giants many eons ago. Others believe that the hills have a cosmic connection, with each hill representing various stars and planets. No matter what the explanation, they still leave us in awe. The crater lakes of Kelimutu in Indonesia are one of the more remarkable destinations on our journey - the lakes are just as stunning as they are mesmerizing. The mineral rich water that fills each of these lakes changes color many times throughout the year, so each trip is truly a unique experience. Despite the ominous steam that emanates from the lakes, the volcano has actually been dormant for quite some time. Our next stop is the largest Buddhist monument in the world - Indonesia's Borobudur. Rain or shine, it's a truly impressive structure - we're amazed by the sheer quantity of artifacts on display. With over 2,500 relief panels and 500 Buddha statues lining the exterior, we've never seen anything like it before. Reaching the top brings incredible views of the surrounding landscape - but more importantly it signifies the end of a pilgrimage for Buddhists. As we start to head back north, a can't miss destination is Thailand's Phang Nga Bay, tucked away on the west coast of the country. With over 40 limestone islands jutting hundreds of feet into the air, it truly takes your breath away. We grab a boat and find a secluded beach on one of the islands - no better way to spend the day! As our journey begins to wind down, we make sure to visit one of the iconic landmarks of Southeast Asia - Cambodia's Angkor Wat. The world's largest religious monument never fails to disappoint - you could spend years exploring this vast complex. While the views from the outside are truly impressive, the interior is a different story. To our dismay, we find out that much of the complex has been looted in recent years, with bas-reliefs and relics fetching high prices on the black market. It'll take a little exploring around to find the rooms left in pristine condition - but it's certainly worth it. Our final stop is none other than one of the most impressive archeological sites in the world, Myanmar's Bagan. Over 10,000 pagodas were built on this vast desert plain nearly a thousand years ago - with a little over 2,200 remaining today. Despite constant earthquake damage (the ruins are built directly on top of a fault line) - the locals continue to rebuild these treasured ruins time and time again. No trip to Bagan is complete without a hot air balloon ride - despite the steep price, the incredible views for miles around make it a once in a lifetime experience.

Update 33: "Flying Get" (Southern Cireseh, Kota Meriah) (19/7/14)

Cireseh is a subdistrict in southern part of Kota Meriah, Karasem. this district recently having construction boom with a lot of highrise built in this area. In 2003, local government created another CBD of Kota Meriah aside with the main one in Pamekasan Utara and some other minor one. A look of the CBD. As shown in the picture, the surrounding of CBD there're a lot of low wealth residential area with several vacant lot for future development of this area.. Cireseh CBD connected with Kota Meriah Outer Ring Road in the south as it would give the commuter main access to this commercial centre Jl Cireseh Raya, it provides this CBD main highway access as well as main road. Jl Cireseh raya itself connecting Eastern part of Kota Jatibening (Jatibening City) with Meriah. it also a daily busy commute road. Construction boom can be see just in the west of CBD with a lot of highrise under construction, tearing the low wealth residential area into a luxury skyscrapers jungle. There are a numberous of slums in the northern part of CBD, Government planned the main CBD avenue to be widen to provide better access for CBD from Jl Raya Pemogan. demolishing numberous of slums in the action. North of Jl Raya Pemogan lies the high wealth residential area of Pamekasan Selatan District. Jl Raya Cireseh meets Jl Raya Pemogan in this intersection. we can see small industrial area in the east of Jl Raya Cireseh. Well thats all for today I think... hope you enjoyed it -

Hi! Here is a map of the Philippines, specially dedicated to my Pinoy friends out there. Enjoy! EDIT: Updated to version 1.1. Refer to the changelog for details. Disclaimer: the snowcapped mountains displayed inside the main screenshot is a result of my personal snow mod. You can choose to adjust the height of your own snow mod or not install any snow mod. In other words, the snow that you see inside the screenshot is actually due to my own personal preference, and is none of your business -
Welcome back. Today we will be taking our first look into Georgetown. As told in the previous update, the small city is an economic free zone allowing for much more development with fewer restrictions than the rest of the country. Many corporations have set up home here due to the low taxes. Despite being occupied by Britain until the late 90's, there are only a few colonial buildings. Most of them have been destroyed due to the rapid development. The first picture shows the majority of the seaport as well as a new development on the peninsula. The complex contains a hotel and shopping center. The next shot of going the other direction. It shows many of the complexes that companies have set up for their headquarters. Some of them include PetroKor, Sabah Banking, and more. Our last shot is of the traditional downtown. You can see one of two old buildings, but much of this area is under re-development for new, sleek, high-rises. You can also see that it has started to rain... again. The next update, we will take a closer look at some of the construction projects. Note: If any of you would like to take a closer look at anything in the pictures, let me know and I will also put that in the next update REPLIES NMUSpidey: Thank you, I was just playing around, and got the round part- I quite like it too skyscraper241: Thank you very much!
