The number of natural disasters in Indonesia has increased to 3,034 from 2,925 last year, impacting 8.3 million people and causing 662 deaths, according to a report from the country's National Disaster Mitigation Agency (BNPB).

Natural disasters including floods, whirlwinds and landslides have damaged more than 140,000 houses. To date, 95 people are still missing and 14,113 were injured.

This year, floods accounted for more than one-third of the disasters, followed by whirlwinds, landslides, forest and land fires, tidal waves and abrasions, earthquakes, droughts and volcanic eruptions.

BNPB's spokesperson Abdul Muhari on Sunday warned of wet hydrometeorological disasters that could cause more floods, landslides and whirlwinds, especially ahead of the peak of the rainy season in early January 2022.

"We expect all parties, including the public, to increase awareness of more catastrophes and aftershocks in the near time," he said in a press release.

Muhari also told all regional disaster agencies to stock sufficient logistic aids, particularly in the disaster-prone areas, for people who had been or would be impacted by the calamities.

Most of the disasters occurred on Java island with over 60 percent of the population in Indonesia.

West Java, the province with the largest population in the country, records 749 natural disasters, followed by 384 in East Java province, 304 in Central Java province and 214 in Aceh province on Sumatra island.

Previously, Finance Minister Sri Mulyani Indrawati has said that every year, Indonesia faces average direct losses from disasters worth 20 trillion rupiahs (1.4 billion U.S. dollars).
