Komering

The Komering is one of the great tributaries of the Musi in southern Sumatra. Its upper basin lies in the Barisan Mountains near Lake Ranau; the river then crosses the lowlands towards Palembang, where it joins the Musi. Along its course, mountain valleys give way to a broad floodplain. Together with the Ogan and Lematang, the Komering carries water from the inland hills into the river system that reaches the Bangka Strait.
