What are the cities that are relatively safe and far from from natural disaster in Indonesia?

The North coast of Java rarely gets quakes but the south sees quite a few as the biggest fault line passes that way. That doesn't mean you're never going to feel one, but there are far fewer and they tend to be weaker.
However, even Jakarta gets them from time to time as I know from experience.

So Yogyakarta could be a safe location (no earthquake, volcano, land slide and tsunami)?

How about Medan?

Yogya or the surrounding area can get the lot.

You mean it is not spared ?

One pretty active volcano that pops every couple of years and not that far from the line of two tectonic plates with a habit of moving means Yogya and the area gets a few scares from time to time, sometimes ones big enough to require a change of underwear.

However, don't get the idea huge bits of the city have been reduced to rubble with thousands dead because big quakes are rare and the volcanoes are normally a bigger problem to air traffic than they are to people a few miles away.

I would sh*t my pants too LOL
But have you been in Medan? It looks geographically safer.
