SEMARANG
Semarang is situated in 110° 25′ E. longitude and 6° 58′ S. latitude. The population of Semarang numbered in 1925 18,954 Europeans, 20,543 foreign Orientals, and 111,455 natives; total 150,952. The old city is small, with narrow streets and lanes. On the west side of the river are the residence of the Regent, the Mosque, the Post and Telegraph Office, the Hospital, the Government House containing the Offices of the Resident, the Court of Justice, and different other Government offices.
The railway extends to Batavia and Sourabaya. The roads of Semarang do not afford the same accommodation as the harbour of Tandjoengpriok, but the view of the city and surroundings is very fine. So-called steam tramways, being in fact light rail- ways with quite a considerable capacity-both for goods and passenger traffic-extend from Semarang westward along the coast as far as Tjerebon, and further on up-country to Kadipaten; and also to the eastern parts of the residency Semarang and the residency Rembang, as well as to Sourabaya, as mentioned above.
