Outline of Final Research Achievements	This research is a continuous endeavor and collaboration with Indonesian government and researchers, in supporting the rehabilitation of cultural heritage in the historic district of Padang, capital city of West Sumatra, Indonesia, since 2009 when it was devastated by the Sumatra earthquake. Based on the previous research results, we clarified historical transition of the city structure of Padang, as well as characteristics and distribution of the historical buildings through field surveys and materials investigations, in order to identify its cultural value to be saved as a group, as well as the current situation and issues. Also, by interviews with local residents, we researched the social organizations, lives, customs and changes after the earthquake, and exchanged views toward the reconstruction through organizing workshops with stakeholders. Finally, we summed up a recommendation to indicate an orientation for the preservation and rehabilitation of the historical district.
