Flood recovery and reconstruction in Padang

Overview

Following extreme weather and flooding in early August 2026, the Padang City Government distributed Rp540 million in aid to 270 households across four districts. This assistance included Rp2 million per household, cleaning supplies, hygiene kits, blankets, and food. While thousands of homes were initially impacted, the majority have recovered, leaving only a small number with minor damage.

Recovery efforts have since expanded to include infrastructure and educational support. The city is overseeing road widening and paving projects, while the Ministry of Primary and Secondary Education is funding the rehabilitation of schools damaged by previous flooding. Additionally, the local government has launched a program to provide free school uniforms to thousands of students from low-income families for the 2026/2027 academic year.
