Statement of inclusion of previous work (delete if not applicable): I confirm that chapter <two> draws upon an earlier article I published <` "Gathered on the Point of a Bayonet": The Negara Pasundan and the Colonial Defence of Indonesia, 1946-50', International History Review 39, 1 (2017), 30-47> Signature and date: Abstract ‘“Collaboration is a Very Delicate Concept”: Alliance-formation and the Wars of Independence in Indonesia and Malaysia, 1945-1957’ is a case study in the interface between late colonial empires and colonized societies. Unlike traditional studies that continue to focus on British or Dutch (military-political) efforts to open specific avenues towards independence, the thesis analyses how local elites, their constituencies or individuals determined and navigated their own course— through violent insurgencies—towards independence. The thesis dispenses with (colonial) notions of ‘loyalty’ and ‘colonized- colonizer’. Instead, it takes the much more fluid concept of local alliance- formation and combines it with theories on territorial control to elucidate why certain individuals or groups co-operated with colonial authorities one moment only to switch to the freedom fighters’ side the next. In showing the complexities and ambiguities of association, the thesis advocates and executes an agenda that transcends the narrow political- diplomatic scope of decolonization to restore the agency and motivations of local political parties, communities and individuals. The red thread throughout the thesis, then, is that Indonesians, Chinese and Malays pursued their own, narrow—often violent—interests to survive and secure a (political) future beyond decolonization. Ultimately, the limits of alliance-formation are probed. The search for territorial control by colonial and anti-colonial forces necessitated zero-sum outcomes to pre-empt alliance breakdowns. As such, coercion remained the major motivational force during decolonization: coercion local communities participated in more than has been hitherto acknowledged in relation to the decolonization of Southeast Asia. Acknowledgements This writing of this thesis would not have been possible without the four-year grant provided by the NUFFIC (the Netherlands Organisation for the Internationalisation of Education) and additional contributions from the Prins Bernhard Culture Fund and, lastly, the European University Institute itself. Of course, money isn’t everything. I would like, therefore, to thank Professor A. Dirk Moses for having been my supervisor. I suppose the past five years have required quite some patience on his part. Still, whenever I had questions his answers came quickly, were detailed and, most importantly, to the point. The same applies to his editing. I owe him my first publications; he spared neither of us in making sure I delivered. To Professor Lucy Riall, my second advisor at the EUI, I would like to extend my gratitude for always being available to discuss my work and offering different perspectives. Her enthusiasm even worked on me. Lastly, Professor Martin Thomas deserves special mention in his capacity as external advisor and for his advice and the opportunities he offered me in terms of presenting and publishing. I thank the faculty of the HEC department. Special thanks go out to Anna Coda Nunziante for dealing with my perennial last-minute requests. In the days before the final submission, Miriam Curci has been very patient with me for which I am grateful. Others who were kind enough to spend some of their time sharing their expertise have been Professors Remco Raben and Jan Hoffenaar and dr. Christ Klep. Stress is no fun without friends to share the suffering. In no particular order, here is a list of people that I have shared the good, the bad and the ugly with: Jonas, Stephanie, Martijn, Anaïs, Rebecca, Andrea, Marijn, Matthijs, Miquel, José, Martín, Jonas, Nicolás, Tetiana, Andrea, Vinzenz, Dario, Koen, Mathilde, Rutger, Ivan, Bouke, Lisa, Simon, Bram, Daniël, Tim, Sanne and Florian. Im quite sure that I have forgotten a few people, but that can’t be helped. Thank you all for making my time here quite enjoyable and dealing with my rants and bad jokes. No thank-you list is complete without my parents, Ton and Truus, and my sister Annemarie. The Netherlands is never far away thanks to you. Special mention goes to my two adorable nieces, Ilse and Tessa; perhaps you will write your own thesis, some day. I am saddened my oma cannot join me in my celebrations. To the rest of my extended family, I would like to say that I never grew tired of answering questions about when I was finally finishing (I think). You always made me feel very welcome. Last but certainly not least, a big thank you to all my friends who I have known the longest or who have joined the ranks more recently: Bas, Coen, Arjan, Tim, Frank, Sebastiaan, Marcel, Finneke, Bas, Isaac, Dirk, Gerhard, Laura, Aline, Ingrid and Jasmine. I think this suffices, for now.

Transformative connectivity lies at the heart of colonialism. Colonial expansion and ‘colonialism’, defined as such, constituted ‘an encounter’ wherein communities that were ‘already […] living in those places where colonies were established’ were subjugated by incoming others. At the points of contact, ‘the original inhabitants and the newcomers’ locked ‘into [a] most complex and traumatic relationship’ that changed both—predominantly because power- relations were decided in favour of the colonizers.1 The effects of these changes, encapsulated in shared histories, continue to link Asia and Europe and spark heated debates regarding the relations between the two.

Published for the first time more than a decade ago as a booklet in a modest cyclostyled shape by the Cultural Department of the Indonesian Embassy in India, it has been revised several times in Jakarta in the same form to keep up to date with new discoveries and current theories. Since it seemed to have filled a need felt by foreigners as well as Indonesians to obtain an elementary knowledge of Indonesia's past, it has been thought wise to publish it now in a printed form with the aim to reach a larger public than before.

This ninth-century Hindu temple complex, which since 1991 has been listed as a world heritage site, was a professional archaeological reconstruction. The method employed for the reconstruction was anastylosis,2 however, when it came to the roof top, a bit of fantasy was also employed. For a long time the site had been not much more than a pile of stones. But now, to a new 1 The historian Sunario, a former Indonesian ambassador to England, in an interview with Jacques Leclerc on 23-10-1974, quoted in Leclerc 2000:43. 2 Anastylosis, first developed in Greece, proceeds on the principle that reconstruction is only possible with the use of original elements, which by three-dimensional deduction on the site have to be replaced in their original position. The Dutch East Indies’ Archaeological Service – which never employed the term – developed this method in an Asian setting by trial and error (for the first time systematically at Candi Panataran in 1917-1918).

Simon menjawab: “Guru, telah sepanjang malam kami bekerja keras dan kami tidak menangkap apa-apa, tetapi karena Engkau yang menyuruhnya, aku akan menebar jala juga”. Dan setelah mereka melakukannya, mereka menangkap sejumlah besar ikan, sehingga jala mereka mulai koyak. Lalu mereka memberi isyarat kepada teman-temannya di perahu yang lain supaya mereka datang membantunya. Dan mereka itu datang, lalu mereka bersama-sama mengisi kedua perahu itu dengan ikan hingga hampir tenggelam.

Yogyakarta: Program Studi Sastra Indonesia, Jurusan Sastra Indonesia, Fakultas Sastra, Universitas Sanata Dharma. Penelitian ini membahas gaya bahasa, tujuan, proses ritual, dan fungsi mantra bahasa Dayak Desa. Ada beberapa alasan yang mendasari pemilihan topik ini, yaitu (1) studi khusus tentang mantra bahasa Dayak Desa sampai saat ini belum pernah dilakukan, (2) ada keunikan penggunaan bahasa dalam mantra bahasa Dayak Desa. Selain itu, peneliti beranggapan bahwa budaya daerah sangat perlu dilestarikan, mengingat sifat mantra yang rahasia dan tertutup, akan membuka peluang punahnya mantra.

  • Australians Into Battle : the Ambush at Gema S
    CHAPTER 1 1 AUSTRALIANS INTO BATTLE : THE AMBUSH AT GEMA S ENERAL Percival had decided before the debacle at Slim River G that the most he could hope to do pending the arrival of further reinforcements at Singapore was to hold Johore. This would involve giving up three rich and well-developed areas—the State of Selangor (includin g Kuala Lumpur, capital of the Federated Malay States), the State of Negr i Sembilan, and the colony of Malacca—but he thought that Kuala Lumpu r could be held until at least the middle of January . He intended that the III Indian Corps should withdraw slowly to a line in Johore stretching from Batu Anam, north-west of Segamat, on the trunk road and railway , to Muar on the west coast, south of Malacca . It should then be respon- sible for the defence of western Johore, leaving the Australians in thei r role as defenders of eastern Johore. General Bennett, however, believing that he might soon be called upo n for assistance on the western front, had instituted on 19th December a series of reconnaissances along the line from Gemas to Muar . By 1st January a plan had formed in his mind to obtain the release of his 22nd Brigade from the Mersing-Jemaluang area and to use it to hold the enem y near Gemas while counter-attacks were made by his 27th Brigade on the Japanese flank and rear in the vicinity of Tampin, on the main road near the border of Malacca and Negri Sembilan . Although he realised tha t further coastal landings were possible, he thought of these in terms of small parties, and considered that the enemy would prefer to press forwar d as he was doing by the trunk road rather than attempt a major movement by coastal roads, despite the fact that the coastal route Malacca-Muar- Batu Pahat offered a short cut to Ayer Hitam, far to his rear .

  • Menganalisis Pola Dan Arah Aliran Hujan Di Negeri Sembilan Menggunakan Kaedah GIS Poligon Thiessen Dan Kontur Isoyet
    GEOGRAFIA OnlineTM Malaysian Journal of Society and Space 2 (105 - 113) 105 © 2006, ISSN 2180-2491 Menganalisis pola dan arah aliran hujan di Negeri Sembilan menggunakan kaedah GIS poligon Thiessen dan kontur Isoyet Shaharuddin Ahmad1, Noorazuan Md. Hashim1 1School of Social, Development and Environmental Studies, Faculty of Social Sciences and Humanities, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia Correspondence: Shaharuddin Ahmad (email: [email protected]) Abstrak Curahan hujan seringkali digunakan sebagai indeks iklim bagi menentukan perubahan dalam kajian perubahan iklim global. Frekuensi dan tempoh curahan hujan dianggap sebagai indeks penting bagi bidang geomorfologi, hidrologi dan kajian cerun. Di samping itu, maklumat tentang taburan hujan penting kepada manusia kerana boleh mempengaruhi pelbagai aktiviti manusia seperti pertanian, perikanan dan pelancongan. Oleh itu, kajian ini meneliti pola taburan dan tren hujan yang terdapat di Negeri Sembilan. Data hujan bulanan dan tahunan untuk tempoh 21 tahun (1983 – 2003) dibekalkan oleh Perkhidmatan Kajicuaca Malaysia (MMS) bagi lapan stesen kajiklim yang terdapat di seluruh negeri. Kaedah GIS Poligon Thiessen dan Kontur Isoyet digunakan bagi mengira dan menentukan pola taburan hujan manakala kaedah Ujian Mann-Kendall digunakan bagi mengesan pola perubahan tren dan variabiliti hujan. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahawa berdasarkan kaedah Persentil dan Kontur Isoyet, pola taburan hujan di Negeri Sembilan boleh di kategorikan kepada dua jenis kawasan iaitu kawasan sederhana lembap (memanjang dari Jelebu -Kuala Pilah-Gemencheh) dan kawasan hujan lebat (sekitar kawasan pinggir pantai-Seremban- Chembong). Pola perubahan hujan didapati tidak tetap bagi kesemua stesen kajian bagi tempoh kajian ini. Berasaskan Ujian Mann-Kendall tahun 1980-an dan 1990-an menandakan tahun perubahan taburan hujan bagi kesemua stesen kajian yang boleh memberi kesan kepada kawasan tadahan dan seterusnya menentukan kadar bekalan air yang mencukupi.
