Abstract
Indonesia is very prone to natural disasters, especially earthquakes, due to its location in a tectonically active region. In 2009, the 02 September 2009 Tasikmalaya and the 30 September 2009 earthquakes, with magnitude Mw 7.0 and 7.9, which are an intraslab earthquake, caused the deaths of thousands of people, severe infrastructure destruction and considerable economic loss. Then, the 02 October 2009 Kerinci earthquake, with magnitude Mw 6.6, is a crustal earthquake killed 3 people and destroyed hundreds of houses. Thus, both intraslab and crustal earthquakes are important sources of earthquake hazard in Indonesia.
