No faith of ours is strong enough To thwart the enemies’ device. ”For now we live if ye stand fast” In love. God’s love and His alone Spans seas, and time, and changing years, And makes us one though oft unknown,, “For now we live if ye stand fast” In prayer-prayer in the Holy Ghost, That reaches out in faith and love And saves men to the uttermost.

THE LIFE LINE Mrs. C. J. Mason >'Farnow WE, live, d ye stand fast in the Lord" (1 Thes. 38). Have you ever quotcd this verse in prayer with reference to the mis- sionaries? Have you ~verconsiderad the -=text to- discovrr if you were scriptural in 50 doing? Careful study would reveal that this verse is definite!? zpplieable in that respect, and that between the missionaries on the fie15 and the churches at home there exists a relationship so close that life is actually affected therrqby. The missionary, in writing thsee words to a churoh, implies that 3 princi,ple or spiritual law is in operation which links us together and makes his or her life momentarily dependent upon us. It represents a life line hy which we must 'help maintain and sustain life. If we fail, the missionary fails! If we sucewd, the missionary succeeds! Consider the effect on the Apostle Paul of the aggregate spiritual life of the church at Thessalonica. At the, time of writing he had been separated from them for a year and was in the midst of severe persecution and affliction. His burden for that little flo& became so intolerable that he sent Timothem to them. When Timotheus returned with a glowing report of their "faith" and .'love" adtheir "good rfmembrance of w always, desiring greatly to see us" (prayer with desire), Paul's spirit revived. In the midzt of all his affliction and distress he receiv'Pa -comfort, rendered thanks, and experienced joy. During the war that was called "morale building." Paul revealed it as "life building." . Wi hrnrd the term "the life line" so often during the war. It repre- zented %at flow cd food, clothing, ammunition, reinforcements, and propa- 3 ~ ~~~ ~ ~ consequently, we were constantly reminded of the necessity of an all-out war engaging the energies of the man on the fann, the wife in the home, the children in school, and the workers in the war plant, until all of life was regimented. Our young men were fighting ow war. We could .not go, but they could and did. It was our responsdbility as well as theirs. Getting ahem to the front lines was just the (beginning. The important thing 'was to keep them there and enable them to advance. Mhions is the divine commission of the Church. The Spirit of Christ is the spirit of missions. The nearer we get to Him, bhe mre intensely misio- nary we Ibecome. The church age is drawing to a close. We are writing the &sing chapters of church history. Will it close as it Qpned, in a biaze If glory? The answer depends on us. We are not aeatures of circumstances but creators of them. IndWrence, indolence, inadequacy are everywhere apparent and are coakftions of our own making. Apostasy here is reflected over there. The Church of Jesus Christ must amusw herself, marshaU her forces. and regiment all of her life in a total war. We must stand fast in the faith that works, in love that labors, and in prayer that agonizes. Ws must by mans of this life line cause His I& to flaw as "rivers of living water" to the missionaries In a spiritual and physical uplift so energizing that in reality one shall chase a thousand, and two put ten thousand ta flight. Unless we meet God in a new upsurge of spiritual Me and power, we are doomed to failure at home aria bad. SPECIAL NOTICE On Thursday, April 6. Mrs. Herman Dixon was called into the presence of the Lord she lwed sc. well and served 50 faithEully. The Indonesia Mission feels,this loss keenly, and extends to Mr. Dixon and to the bther datives sincere sympathy wibh the earnest prayer that 'God will comfort and sustain them. The next ime of the Pioneer will carry a more detailed account of Mrs. Dixon's ministry in Indonesia. 4 It was on the 17th of Decemher, 1952 that we set sail from Oakland, California on the S.S. Steel Artisan, blissfully unaware of what lay in store for us with ti.* advent of of the New Year. We had watched with interear that evening as the last of the 16 ton Navy trucks and 12 tqn tanks of asphalt were loaded and lashed to the deck In preparation for the usual 16 day 2 hour run to Manila. The barges and cranes had hardly ldt the ship's side, before we were heading out thrmgh the Golden Gate to the vast expanse of the Pacific Ocean. The weather was beautiful during the following two weeks, and we felt that ir was good 10 be alive. We watched the activities on the ship wit4 interest and questioned the ,officers at every opprtundy. Each morninq we noticed the deck crew slowly w.orking their way between !he deck cargo as they tightened the lashings and made sure everything was securz. Everything was going so smoothly it seemed that this was only routineto ,,put in time", so to speak. Christmas came and went, with a fairly well attended carol service id our cabin on Christmas Eve, and a groaning table sprend on Christmas Day. The next week passed much as the first had done. The other missionary couple on board, Ralph and Aha Romine who were going to Manila, joined us for a watch night senice New Year's Eve, and we sought the face of the Lord for His blessing in the coming yea?. New Year's Day dawned the same as any other day, and yet not the Tame. It seemed the same in every respect, and ye1 we knew it was diffkrent.. Therq was just "some,thing" in the atmosphere that was distinctly odd. We remembered something lata that we had noticed but not consi- dered that morning The sea all around us was firzim: just like soda water. Since the ship had slowed down until it was barely making any headway. , the sound of the fizzing was distinctly audible. We learned later that this was caused by the extrfmely low barometric pressure, which was 50 low that the air dissolved in the water was released and came tp the surface. The strange sensations we experienced that day were also^ probably zttrihutable to the low pres;ure. During the late morning the sea began "making" for no apparent leason. After the waves had imredsed in size considerably, the wind began to come up with real force. During the remainder of that day and night 5 the wind increased in veleeity while the seas mse. The typhodn.'€O~''su&'it was, continued to, wren through the following day. During the afternmn the waves reached at least thirty feet or mare, and the ship rolled from side to side more than thirty degrees from perpendicular. It was aye-inspirinp to stand in a doorway and look high up to see the top^ of a wave, and then suddenly be able to look forty feet or more to the dep:h of the hollow. We plunged and reared, staggered and rolled, until the simplest nwessities of living were a nighhlie'. The Romines joined us in our cabin about 6: 30 that night and we called on the Lord fmgrotection and His "Peace, be still." We went to bed and tried to sleep, hut that was impossible-we would have been thrown out of bed had we relaxed enough to sleep. The wind reached 200 m.p.h. and a wave ffty or more feet high went right over the bridge. We went through the "eye" of the typhoon about midnight. It was a dead calm without a breath of air or a rocking wave. We thought for an hour that the stom was ever, but it exploded on us once more with all its fierce intensity. About eight hours later we were out on the hinges once more, thankful no lives were lost, and only a few slight injuries sustained by one officer.

  • Seeking the State from the Margins: from Tidung Lands to Borderlands in Borneo
    Seeking the state from the margins From Tidung Lands to borderlands in Borneo Nathan Bond ORCID ID: 0000-0002-8094-9173 A thesis submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. December 2020 School of Social and Political Sciences The University of Melbourne i Abstract Scholarship on the geographic margins of the state has long suggested that life in such spaces threatens national state-building by transgressing state order. Recently, however, scholars have begun to nuance this view by exploring how marginal peoples often embrace the nation and the state. In this thesis, I bridge these two approaches by exploring how borderland peoples, as exemplars of marginal peoples, seek the state from the margins. I explore this issue by presenting the first extended ethnography of the cross-border ethnic Tidung and neighbouring peoples in the Tidung Lands of northeast Borneo, complementing long-term fieldwork with research in Dutch and British archives. This region, lying at the interstices of Indonesian Kalimantan, Malaysian Sabah and the Southern Philippines, is an ideal site from which to study borderland dynamics and how people have come to seek the state. I analyse understandings of the state, and practical consequences of those understandings in the lives and thought of people in the Tidung Lands. I argue that people who imagine themselves as occupying a marginal place in the national order of things often seek to deepen, rather than resist, relations with the nation-states to which they are marginal. The core contribution of the thesis consists in drawing empirical and theoretical attention to the under-researched issue of seeking the state and thereby encouraging further inquiry into this issue.

Introduction This chapter provides an overview of East Kalimantan in general and the three districts of Paser, Nunukan and Kutai Kartanegara in particular where the research was conducted. It covers the location, climate and geography, the land use systems and forest activities, as well as social-economic factors and human population. This chapter also examines the situation following the introduction of a policy of decentralization in 1998, which resulted in drastic political and economy changes, including an increase in local government revenues, a reduction in the role of forests in government revenues, an increase in the number of districts and the construction of many new district capitals and infrastructure facilities in the province. The chapter also discusses the methods used to analyse traditional forest management systems related to the management of ironwood, an inventory of the natural distribution of ironwood, the cultivation knowledge held by indigenous people, the current trade of ironwood products in East Kalimantan, as well as ironwood conservation efforts.

The data were analyzed interactively including data reduction, data display, and verification.In the development, Tidung people in some areas such as in Tarakan are classified as developed; whereas, in other area such as Nunukan, they are classified as people with modest living. The simplicity of Tidung people in Nunukan regency is reflected in their cultural orientation for a homely life. In religious life, Tidung older generation is classified as pluralistic Islam while the young generation tries to release themselves from pluralism in their religion.In this reformation era, the awareness of strengthening political identity is appeared as indicated by the emergence of “Pan Dayak” that reflects brotherhood between the Dayak and Tidung people in PUSAKA (The Association of Kalimantan Natives) organization. The spirit of political identity renaissance should be observed, because Nunukan regency is a pluralistic area especially for the Bugis who control the area, economically and politically.

First, it analyzes existing trade patterns and competitive advantages of Sabah and North Kalimantan, as well as government objectives in promoting cross-border commercial activities. Second, it proposes a border economic area spread over a wide geographic area that covers a network of interrelated activities. The resulting program provides a fully integrated approach to the border economic area design and implementation. Third, it identifies potential cross-border value chains that can serve as high-profile, demonstrable projects for the border economic area. Fourth, it determines the preference orderings of project features by key stakeholders such as government and development partners, commercial entities, and the local population. Fifth, it estimates the net monetary returns for the project portfolio, ranks stakeholders’ non-monetary preferences, and incorporates the latter results into the project portfolio’s net monetary returns. And, sixth, it provides an overall program appraisal for the set of projects, including an impact analysis of connectivity options.

The document is of course very important to us – the Coordinating Ministry for Economic Affairs - as a guide for the Ministry and related Provincial Governments to drive the implementation of sustainable development in the Heart of Borneo. I want to emphasize again that although this Heart of Borneo initiative originated from a biodiversity conservation idea shared by three countries on the island of Borneo, their shared vision seems to make it clear that biodiversity conservation must go hand in hand with sustainable development. Thus, the Heart of Borneo goals and missions need to be expanded and even focused on the welfare of the people in the region through, among others, sustainable economic development and the provision of good education facilities that are supported by environmentally-friendly infrastructure.
