Also, major floods also hit several Indonesian provinces, such as; Jakarta and Bengkulu.

Some 12,000 others have been evacuated from water-logged Bengkulu province and the displaced villagers needed tents, boats, food and water, while heavy equipment was also needed to build temporary bridges.

Meanwhile, last month 112 people died and more than 90 remain missing after torrential rains pounded Indonesia's Papua region, triggering landslides and flash floods.
