Dumai

Set along the Malacca Strait on Sumatra’s east coast, Dumai is a place whose character is shaped by shipping, industry and a low-lying coastal setting. It is one of Riau’s principal ports, facing one of the world’s busiest sea routes and connecting the province with wider Indonesian and international trade. Mangrove areas and humid lowlands around this side of Sumatra contrast with the island’s volcanic interior. Dumai is also home to a major oil refinery, while Malay traditions remain an important part of Riau’s regional identity.
