Samarinda is the capital of East Kalimantan province on the Indonesian portion of Borneo, strung along the lower reaches of the Mahakam River about forty kilometres inland from the Makassar Strait. It observes Central Indonesia Time (WITA, UTC+8) via the IANA zone Asia/Makassar; Indonesia has not used daylight saving since the three-zone system was finalised in 1988. With roughly 830,000 residents in the city proper and over a million in its metropolitan area, Samarinda is the most populous city on Borneo. Formally chartered on 26 June 1959 after separating from the Special Region of Kutai, it grew on trade, timber and petroleum, and today hosts the province's busiest container and passenger ports. The city's name comes from the Bugis phrase for raft houses built at equal height, symbolising social equality among the river settlers who founded it.
