01 / Context
Indonesia overview
Coastal protection includes distinct needs: tsunami evacuation, warning dissemination and management of coastal exposure. A seawall, evacuation structure and community warning system have different purposes. Start with the hazard, expected warning time and people who need to reach safety.
02 / Public initiatives
Government direction and progress
BMKG’s IOWAVE 2025 exercise tested warning-system resilience and encouraged independent community evacuation exercises. This shows active attention to both warning infrastructure and public response, rather than treating detection alone as preparedness.

What businesses and communities need
The business decision
Ports, hotels, industrial facilities and tourism operators need continuity and evacuation plans suited to staff, visitors and surrounding communities. Engineering measures require agreement on ownership, land access and long-term inspection.
The people using the solution
Warnings must reach people in language and formats they understand. Routes should consider night-time conditions, visitors, children, older people and people with disabilities; drills can reveal obstacles that maps miss.
04 / Proteka’s assessment
Where solutions can make a difference
Assess the gap between an official warning and a completed evacuation. Potential work includes route assessment, accessible dissemination, shelter planning and coordination with specialist coastal and structural engineers.
Questions a useful project should resolve
- Can people reach safety within the available time?
- Who communicates and verifies receipt of warnings?
- How will routes, signage and structures remain usable?
These are opportunities to investigate, not confirmed market demand. A field study should test the customer, operating conditions and commercial assumptions.
05 / Working together
How Proteka can contribute
Market access & local knowledge
We help teams understand local institutions, arrange community and site engagement, and define a workable pilot. Coastal design and official warning authority remain with the appropriate specialists and agencies.
