coal. In addition, export performance was driven by improvements in the economic conditions of the
|
9845_436
|
main destination countries for South Sumatra's exports, including the United States, China and
|
9845_437
|
Europe. On the other hand, an increase in export performance has no impact on increasing household
|
9845_438
|
consumption. The slowdown in household consumption is estimated to be caused by the consumption
|
9845_439
|
pattern of people experiencing a shift. The community began to reduce tertiary needs reflected in
|
9845_440
|
the decline in the consumption index of durable goods. Meanwhile, in the second quarter of 2017
|
9845_441
|
government consumption declined due to some government projects still in the auction stage.

Cuisine
|
9845_443
|
The South Sumatran cuisine or also known as the Palembang cuisine is the cuisine of the city of
|
9845_444
|
Palembang and the surrounding area in South Sumatra. It is the second most well-known cuisine from
|
9845_445
|
Sumatra after Padang. Palembang cuisine primarily uses freshwater fish and prawns as key
|
9845_446
|
ingredients due to the paramount role of the Musi River for the area. Popular freshwater fish
|
9845_447
|
includes patin (Pangasius), baung (Hemibagrus), lais (Kryptopterus cryptopterus), lele (catfish),
|
9845_448
|
gabus (snakehead), mas (carp) and gurame (gourami). Historically, Palembang waters were teeming
|
9845_449
|
with belido (giant featherback), and it has become the city's official animal mascot. It is valued
|
9845_450
|
for its succulent flavour and soft texture. However, due to overfishing, today the belido fish are
|
9845_451
|
scarce and probably already extinct in Musi river area. Because of its location that is not far
|
9845_452
|
from the sea, seafood such as shrimp, tenggiri (wahoo), kakap merah (red snapper) and Spanish
|
9845_453
|
mackerel are also popular in Palembang. Besides freshwater fish dishes, there are many variations
|
9845_454
|
of dishes, snacks, drinks, and sweets in Palembang cuisine.
|
9845_455
|
Spices are also generally included although not as liberally as its same-island counterpart.
|
9845_456
|
Palembang cuisine is noted by its preference for the sour and sweet flavour, as evidenced in
|
9845_457
|
pindang fish soup, strong-smelling tempoyak-based dish made from fermented durian, and also kuah
|
9845_458
|
cuko spicy sweet vinegar sauce of pempek fishcake. Those dishes are popular fare and often
|
9845_459
|
associated with the city.
|
9845_460
|
Malay, Javanese, Indian, and Chinese culture has influenced Palembang's culinary scene. Pempek,
|
9845_461
|
tekwan and mie celor are the example of Chinese cuisine influence on Palembang. Pempek is basically
|
9845_462
|
fishcake made from deboned fish flesh and tapioca flour, which was a local adaptation of East Asian
|
9845_463
|
surimi fishcake making. Like most of noodle dishes of Indonesia, mie celor can trace its origin
|
9845_464
|
back to Chinese influences. It was popularly believed that Palembang preference of sweet flavour
|
9845_465
|
was due to Javanese influences that favoured palm sugar. Indeed, Palembang absorbs many Javanese
|
9845_466
|
elements, including language and cuisine. For example, both Javanese and Palembang Malay dialects
|
9845_467
|
refer fish as iwak, and cooking method employing banana leaf package as brengkes or brengkesan.
|
9845_468
|
Martabak Palembang and nasi minyak which uses ghee, on the other hand, demonstrate Indian cuisine
|
9845_469
|
influence in the city.

Sports
|
9845_471
|
South Sumatra, especially the city of Palembang is notable as the host city 2018 Asian Games along
|
9845_472
|
with Jakarta, the first Asian Games hold officially by two cities and the fourth host city of Asian
|
9845_473
|
Games in Southeast Asia after Bangkok in 1998. Palembang is also the main host of 2011 Southeast
|
9845_474
|
Asian Games and hosted two matches of 2007 AFC Asian Cup. Sport facilities have been built across
|
9845_475
|
the city since 1971 to host Pekan Olahraga Mahasiswa (POM) IX, although the city's main sport
|
9845_476
|
complex, Jakabaring Sport City started its construction in 1998 and expanded later in 2010. In
|
9845_477
|
order to keep the sport complex in frequent use, several plans have been raised by the government
|
9845_478
|
to encourage more sporting events into the city, including the purchase of an association football
|
9845_479
|
club, Persijatim Solo F.C in 2004 which then renamed to Sriwijaya F.C. Palembang also planned to
|
9845_480
|
build a race track inside the complex to host a MotoGP race in the city.
|
9845_481
|
Football is regarded as the most popular sport in South Sumatra. Sriwijaya F.C is the only active
|
9845_482
|
professional football club in South Sumatra and is widely followed across the province, especially
|
9845_483
|
in its home city Palembang. During its home matches, the stadium often flooded with fans wearing
|
9845_484
|
yellow shirts on south stands, green shirts on north stands, and black shirts on east stands,
|
9845_485
|
representing three main ultras of the club. Badminton, basketball, volleyball and futsal also get
|
9845_486
|
wide attention in the city. Besides Sriwijaya F.C., notable sport teams in Palembang are BSB
|
9845_487
|
Hangtuah (basketball) and Palembang Bank Sumsel Babel (volleyball). Indonesian badminton players
|
9845_488
|
Mohammad Ahsan and Debby Susanto are also from Palembang.

Vitold Belevitch (2 March 1921 – 26 December 1999) was a Belgian mathematician and electrical
|
9846_1
|
engineer of Russian origin who produced some important work in the field of electrical network
|
9846_2
|
theory. Born to parents fleeing the Bolsheviks, he settled in Belgium where he worked on early
|
9846_3
|
computer construction projects. Belevitch is responsible for a number of circuit theorems and
|
9846_4
|
introduced the now well-known scattering parameters.
|
9846_5
|
Belevitch had an interest in languages and found a mathematical derivation of Zipf's law. He also
|
9846_6
|
published on machine languages. Another field of interest was transmission lines, where he
|
9846_7
|
published on line coupling. He worked on telephone conferencing and introduced the mathematical
|
9846_8
|
construct of the conference matrix.
|
9846_9
|
Early life
|
9846_10
|
Belevitch was born 2 March 1921 in Terijoki, Karelia, now incorporated into Russia, but at the time
|
9846_11
|
part of Finland. Belevitch's parents were Russian and his mother was an ethnic Pole. They were
|
9846_12
|
attempting to flee from their home in Petrograd (St Petersburg) in Russia to escape the Bolshevik
|
9846_13
|
revolution, which Belevitch's father opposed. Belevitch's heavily pregnant mother succeeded in
|
9846_14
|
crossing the border into Finland and continued on to Helsinki after Vitold was born, where the
|
9846_15
|
birth was registered. She headed for Helsinki because her husband's father was principal of the
|
9846_16
|
Russian school there. Belevitch's father was arrested before he could follow and was deported to
|
9846_17
|
Siberia, where he died without ever seeing his son.
|
9846_18
|
In 1926 Belevitch, while still a small child, emigrated with his mother to Belgium.
|
9846_19
|
Education
|
9846_20
|
Belevitch was educated in French in Belgium, until July 1936 at the Notre-Dame de la Paix College
|
9846_21
|
at Namur. In 1937, aged 16, he enrolled at the Université Catholique de Louvain where he studied
|
9846_22
|
electrical and mechanical engineering, graduating in 1942. Belevitch gained his PhD in applied
|
9846_23
|
sciences at the same university in 1945. His sponsor was Charles Lambert Manneback and his second
|
9846_24
|
advisor was Wilhelm Cauer, the founder of the field of network synthesis.
|
9846_25
|
From 1953 until 1985 Belevitch lectured at the university. He taught circuit theory and other
|
9846_26
|
mathematical subjects related to electrical science. In 1960 he became a special professor
|
9846_27
|
(buitengewoon hoogleraar). Although Belevitch worked as an electrical engineer, his primary
|
9846_28
|
interest was mathematics, especially algebra. There was a tradition in Belgium of the most gifted
|
9846_29
|
mathematicians entering engineering rather than pure mathematics or physics. Belevitch showed his
|
9846_30
|
mathematical leanings by preferring the use of blackboard and chalk to any audio-visual aids during
|
9846_31
|
lectures. He even lectured in this way when presenting the opening lecture to a large audience at
|
9846_32
|
an international conference at the IEE in London.
|
9846_33
|
Career
|
9846_34
|
After graduating in 1942, Belevitch joined the Bell Telephone Manufacturing Company (BTMC) in
|
9846_35
|
Antwerp, originally part of the International Bell Telephone Company headquartered in Brussels but,
|
9846_36
|
along with their other European holdings, sold to International Telephone and Telegraph (ITT) in
|
9846_37
|
1925. At BTMC Belevitch became head of the transmission department. It was here that he came into
|
9846_38
|
contact with Wilhelm Cauer who became a great influence on him. Cauer was one of the leading
|
9846_39
|
circuit theorists of the day and at the time worked for Mix & Genest in Berlin, a sister company
|
9846_40
|
under the ITT umbrella. Cauer died during the Second World War but Belevitch long after continued
|
9846_41
|
to consider his works to be the highest authority on matters of circuit theory.
|
9846_42
|
From 1951 Belevitch was involved in the design of electronic computers which BTMC were developing
