The people of Aceh Province, in particular, opened early December 2025 with the worst flood disaster in its history. This left behind profound sadness and trauma not only due to the loss of life and property, but also because the province, renowned as the land of the saints with its strong Islamic teachings, seemed to lose its uniqueness due to various changes in values ​​and behavior. Hopefully, the repeated disasters that struck Aceh are "lessons and trials," not curses!

This year's floods have reportedly exceeded the loss of the community by the 2004 tsunami, even wiping out a village called Bunin in Bener Meriah Regency due to being swept away by flash floods and landslides.

Many experts believe that the primary cause of flash floods and landslides is a combination of natural and human factors. To date, data on the number of casualties and property losses is not fully updated because several areas remain isolated by floods and landslides.

Hopefully, such major disasters will not occur again in the future... and Sorry if this comment does not cover all the sad stories in your interesting writing, Mrs. @dederanggayoni 🙏
