Update: Aceh’s Road to ProsperitySix years after the tsunami a new road is bringing Aceh back to lifeThis road was financed by the Bank-managed Multi Donor Fund for Aceh and Nias (MDF) and implemented by the Ministry of Public Works. This brand new thoroughfare is part of a broader MDF-financed program which helped build essential transport infrastructure to improve access to centers of economic activity. To the residents of Batoh village, located off the new highway, many changes have taken place, most of them for the better. Tarmiji, owner of the Dhapu Kopu, (“Coffee Kitchen” in Acehnese) whom I met in my visit, is one good example. Not long after the tsunami, when land values plunged to their lowest levels, Tarmiji took a chance and bought two shops on a strategic corner of the road. Given the Acehnese penchant for coffee, it was the right decision. His coffee shop is now one of the most popular in Banda Aceh. At the other end of the road, I encountered a retired school teacher, Juned Daud, who owns and runs a shop selling school supplies. As keucik-or chief-of Lampeueurut village, he is happy that the area where he lives no longer floods during the rainy season, thanks to the drains built to catch excess water. read more...
