2026.01.05 The Publication of "A Retrospective on Hydraulic Engineering Technical Services in Indonesia by Sinotech Engineering Group"

Authors: Fang-Chung Li, Hsieh-Chan Li
Published by: Sinotech Foundation for Research and Development of Engineering Sciences and Technologies
For nearly fifty years, Sinotech Engineering Group has provided a wide range of engineering technical services to various levels of government in Indonesia. Both the Group itself and the employees who served Indonesia not only improved the well-being of the Indonesian people but also quietly made significant contributions to our nation’s diplomacy, giving related countries the opportunity to witness the superb engineering skills and steadfast work ethic of our engineers. Among these services, projects related to agricultural irrigation were the most numerous.
 
This book begins with an overall explanation, including chapters such as: Preface, the Nurturing and Growth of Agricultural Irrigation and Water Resources Engineering Technology in Taiwan; An Overview of Indonesia; the Establishment and Operation of the Indonesia Office and PT Sinotech Engineering Indonesia; and a Brief Introduction to the Awarded Projects—providing a general outline of related contents. It then moves into more detailed discussions through case-based descriptions, such as introductions to major irrigation projects and oral histories from participating personnel. Finally, it concludes with contributions to our nation’s diplomacy and Indonesia’s agricultural irrigation, along with forward-looking perspectives and outlooks.

Concerning Indonesian place names, except for provinces and cities with widely accepted translations or those already used in Sinotech Engineering quarterly journals, all names are provided in English.
