The Manuk River (Indonesian: Ci Manuk, means: Bird River in Sundanese) is a river in West Java, Indonesia, about 170 km east of the capital Jakarta.[1][2]

Hydrology

Bridge over Ci Manuk near Kadipaten, Majalengka. Before 1940. The whole part of this river is located within West Java province. The river runs from south to north and drains to the Java Sea near the town of Indramayu. There are two river mouths: Cimanuk Lawas ("Old Cimanuk"; 6°14′41″S 108°20′42″E / 6.24473°S 108.34502°E / -6.24473; 108.34502) and Cimanuk Anyar ("New Cimanuk"; 6°13′43″S 108°10′30″E / 6.228611°S 108.175°E / -6.228611; 108.175).[3]

Floods caused by the overflow of the river Cimanuk, in this Garut Regency hit on 21 September 2016, which damaged at least 7 districts. This resulted in the loss of life, injuries, and property damage.[4]
