DENPASAR - The Bali Regional Disaster Management Agency (BPBD) asked the public to prepare an emergency bag containing valuables in the midst of the threat of the impact of the 93S Cyclone seeds.
"Prepare emergency measures if necessary, emergency plans, so if you have valuables, securities, prepare them in one bag, a standby bag," said Head of the Bali BPBD I Gede Agung Teja Bhusana Yadnya, Tuesday, December 16.
"So that when there is a need for immediate evacuation, it can be immediately, so that it is not all submerged," he continued in Denpasar, Tuesday.
The 93S Cyclone seed storm threatens Bali in the period of 11-18 December 2025, where in the last five days alone extreme weather has caused flooding in five regencies.
Due to this incident, the Bali BPBD asked the public to realize that disasters are no longer to be anticipated in the future, but there is a time, so they must be ready with both standby bags and information standby.
"So the first thing is of course to calm down, after calming down, we can only find information. Follow the weather development information, now per village already knows how much rain it will rain from what time to what time through the BMKG information application," said Gede Teja.
BPBD Bali also directed the public to understand safe places around their homes, such as those far from rivers, so that when the impact of Cyclone 93S occurs, the public can take shelter and immediately contact BPBD.
"BBPD here is never on vacation, always trying to collaborate on various strengths to respond, including the readiness of tools, suction tools, yesterday there were quite a lot of water suction, but in the long term we need better infrastructure readiness," he said.
The 93S Cyclone Seed is said to be different from the Rosby Wave that caused a major flood last September 2025. What makes it dangerous is the emergence of a cyclone when Bali enters the rainy season, so that even though it is far away, the impact is still dangerous.
However, his party invited the public not to blame extreme weather entirely, but to realize that the environment's carrying capacity is not ready, such as not being able to drain water properly or problems with the drainage system and spatial planning issues.
"Yes, it needs to be improved, whether old or new drainage, because it is also seen that the drainage has garbage, besides mud there are also cable garbage, various kinds," said Gede Teja.
