my hometown

My hometown is Pekanbaru City. Pekanbaru City is the capital city of Riau Province. It is located in the center of Riau Province, and has a low land for its topography. It is usually very hot during the dry season. At this time, the wind is very dry, but the air is moist with oil. Bit when the rain season comes, it is usually causes flood in some area in the city. It is usually happens to places near the Siak River.
Pekanbaru city is one of the cities with the highest income in Indonesia. Because as the capital city of Riau province it has the responsibility to take care of the finance for the oil of Riau province (Riau has two of the biggest oil company in Indonesia). This may be one of the reasons that this city is developing very fast than any other capital city in Sumatra (with the exception of Medan). It is now beginning to build many high building and working to become a developed city.
