So are Sorong and Fak-fak, all on western coast of PNG. Kupang is not a surprise because it is long way down south and is in a strategically important location for Indonesia, but not artificial. I had expected that Ambon would be near the top as it is, but Bitung was a surprise. I was surprised when I had a first look at this list when it was complete. Sanana (north west of Ambon on small island)
Banda (next to Ambon,short distance south) Dobo (south east of Taul on biggest island in vicinity)
Namlea (just west of Ambon on big island)Ģ routes: Saumlaki (on Jamdena, between Timor and PNG) Larantuka (between Maumere and Kalabahi)ģ routes: Kaimana (south east of Fak-fak, very close) Maumere (straight south of Bau-bau on Sunda ) Bau-bau (extreme southeast of Surawesi, west of Wanci) Fak-Fak (immediately south of Sorong, east of Ambon on western PNG) Kupang (extreme west end of Indonesian Timor and extreme south of Banda sea)Ĥ routes: Sorong (extreme northwest end of PNG) I have little time left before setting out for General Santos on Monday, so my next article may well be delayed, or even stopped until early August if internet connections are bad in the Phyls as it was in Bohol in April.īefore looking at individual routes in Banda sea area we might just as well look at statistics of the number of shipping routes radiating out from each of the ports in the area.ħ routes: Bitung (northern Surawesi, almost next to Mindanao)Ħ routes: Ambon (right in the middle of Banda sea) One of these may or may not do the looping I want. I wish they had an English version, if not in Japanese! You need to make the right guesses, though, because it is all in Indonesia language. It does give us the list of all the routes. However, following Pelni URL makes life easier. Sangiang, Pangrango, Ciremai, Gunung Dempo, Dobonsolo, Umsini, Lambelu, Binalya, Doro Londa, Wilis, Bukit Siguntang, Kerinci, Leuser, Kelud, Bukit Raya, Labobar, and Lawit So, I will need to look at all the ships below to find out what they do. It simply goes back and forth along the western coast of PNG. However, the biggest discovery is that this ship no longer does the looping. My instinctive question here is "Which port is the starting point?". What this means is that the ship, upon leaving Soron makes this additional stop at Morotai before returning (? ) to Bitung. I have heared of "Morotai", and the following map is showing where this The ship's starting point is Sorong (or Bitung).ģ. Very important thing to remember is that timetables like above can be had by interrogating the ship name, albeit in Indonesian language only.Īnyway, we can learn a few things from above timetable by intelligent guessing.ġ. I have colour highlighted here and there for ease of reading.
