The Face of Malay Culture in Indonesian Children‘S Readings
Page International Journal of Malay-Nusantara Studies, Vol. 1, No. 1, May 2018. e-ISSN 2621-2951 p-ISSN 2620-9578 26-39 THE FACE OF MALAY CULTURE IN INDONESIAN CHI/DRE1¶S READ,NGS Ratna Djumala [email protected] Universitas Indonesia ABSTRACT: Awareness of national and cultural identity has nowadays become an increasingly popular topic of conversation. As the oldest culture in Indonesia, it is not surprising that Malay cultural values have embodied all aspects of Indonesian nationhood. Such values have been inveterately introduced to the people since their early age. Different media can be utilized to make this effort, one of which is children's readings. Despite the importance of introducing Malay culture to Indonesian society, however, not many children‘s reading seemingly contains the virtues of 0alay culture. As the result, children seem to have lack of knowledge and awareness of their culture of origin. While preliminary studies show that Malay cultural values can be found in Indonesian folklores, many Indonesian children are ironically not familiar with such folklores and instead more familiar with Malaysia-made animated shows such as Upin & Ipin and Pada Zaman Dahulu. With the strong influence of Malay culture in these two shows, it is understandable that Indonesian children learn more about Malay cultures from the shows. This paper aims to describe how Indonesian children recognize and learn about Malay culture from their readings, namely Upin & Ipin and Pada Zaman Dahulu. By observing this process, it is possible to identify any possible challenges to the cultural revitalization attempt, particularly of Malay culture, in Indonesian children's readings. -
Chapter 2 Political Development and Demographic Features

Since then, both conflict and compromise have occurred among the Europeans, Malays and Chinese, as well as other regional minorities, resulting in two regional dichotomies: (1) socially, the indigenous (Malays) vs. the outsiders (Europeans, Chinese, etc.); (2) politically, the rulers (Europeans and Malay nobles) vs. those ruled (Malays, Chinese). These features have a direct impact on economic development. A retrospective survey of regional political development and demographic features are therefore needed to provide a context for the later analysis of economic development. 1. Political development The formation of Singapore, Johor and the Riau Islands was far from a sudden event, but a long process starting with the decline of the Johor-Riau Sultanate in the late eighteenth century. In order to reveal the coherency of regional political transformations, the point of departure of this political survey begins much earlier than the researched period here. Political Development and Demographic Features 23 The beginning of Western penetration (pre-1824) Apart from their geographical proximity, Singapore, Johor and the Riau Islands had also formed a natural and inseparable part of various early unified kingdoms in Southeast Asia. -

Contesting Boundaries in the Riau Archipelago
CAROLE FAUCHER Contesting boundaries in the Riau Archipelago The fall of the New Order and the implementation of the regional autonomy laws have provided fresh opportunities for the local elite to promote and consolidate their own sphere of influence. As has already been the case in a number of provinces and districts, instances of conflict have spread, often in the context of power struggles and highly complex social and political restructurings (H. Schulte Nordholt 2002). In many cases, these conflicts are popularly articulated through the language of ethnic and religious identity politics. Similarly, ethnic and religious sensitivities which were consciously repressed during the period of the New Order, are now exposed. The Riau Archipelago (or Kepri from Kepulauan Riau) had been so far largely spared from acute tensions and mounting violence. However, among the urban middle class and between generations ideological polarization has taken place. The different attempts to conceptualize ‘Masyarakat Kepri’ – the society of Kepulauan Riau – by politicians and public intellectuals seems to demonstrate how an increasing emphasis on regional identity has gradually superseded a more general concern with the nation. The discussion about the character of the newly formed province of Kepri has oscillated over the past years between the aristocrats’ ideal of reverting to the era of the sultanate, and an image of an industrial oriented pluralistic society, advocated by business people, which is strong and autonomous enough to compete economically with Singapore and Malaysia. The proximity to Malaysia and Singapore has created an interesting para- dox. On one hand, Singapore and Malaysia have been a source of identity for the Malays in the Riau Archipelago as important economic and cultural power bases. -
Development of a Composite Measure of Regional Sustainable Development in Indonesia

Along with laws concerning the national development plan and regional development that mandate a sustainable development framework, the government has issued President Regulation No. 59/2017 on the implementation of sustainable development goals. The issuance of these recent regulatory frameworks indicates that sustainable development should be taken seriously in development processes. Nevertheless, several factors affect the achievement of sustainable development. This paper investigates how economic, social, and environmental factors could be integrated into regional sustainable development indicators using a new composite index. The index is calculated based on a simple formula that could be useful for practical implementation at the policy level. Three measures of indices are developed: arithmetic, geometric, and entropy-based. The indices are aggregated to be used for comparison purposes among regions in terms of their sustainability performance. Lessons learned are then drawn for policy analysis and several recommendations are provided to address challenges in the implementation stages. Keywords: regional sustainable development index; sustainable development; composite index; regional development goals 1. -

Administrative Divisions
INFORMATION PAPER Indonesia: Administrative Divisions Indonesia is the world's largest archipelagic state, stretching across both sides of the equator from the city of Banda Aceh at 05° 33' 28" N, 095° 19' 20" E in the west, to the city of Jayapura at 02° 31' 36" S, 140° 42' 51" E in the east. It is made up of over 17,500 islands (of which around 1,000 are permanently settled) strategically located along major sea lanes between the Pacific and Indian Oceans. The capital, Jakarta, is located near the northwestern coast of Jawa (Java). Its islands can be grouped into the Kepulauan Sunda Besar (Greater Sunda Islands) of Sumatera (Sumatra), Jawa, Sulawesi and the southern part of Kalimantan1; the Nusa Tenggara (Lesser Sunda) islands of Bali and a chain of islands that runs eastward through the island of Timor2; the Maluku (Moluccas) islands; and the western part of the island of New Guinea3. Indonesia Languages Indonesian (Bahasa Indonesia)4 is the official and most commonly spoken language in Indonesia, and is a modified version of Malay. It is the official language of the government and education. Over 700 local dialects of Indonesian are spoken, the most common of which is Javanese. English is also widely spoken in Indonesia. Administrative Divisions In May 1999, Indonesia embarked on a reform of regional governance5, decentralizing most functions of the government to the rural districts and municipalities and increasing local participation in politics and the economy. The Regional Autonomy Law6 gave authority to two levels of regional government, provinces (provinsi) at the first‐order administrative level (ADM1), and regencies (kabupaten) and 1 Kalimantan is the Indonesian name for the island of Borneo. -
The Archaeology of the Johor-Riau-Lingga Malay Kingdom from the 16Th to 19Th Century C.E.: a Re-Evaluation
International Journal of the Malay World and Civilisation 8(3), 2020: 55 - 69 (https://doi.org/10.17576-2020-0802-06) The Archaeology of The Johor-Riau-Lingga Malay Kingdom from the 16th to 19th Century C.E.: A Re-Evaluation Arkeologi Kerajaan Melayu Johor-Riau-Lingga Abad 16-19 Masihi: Penilaian Semula ASYAARI MUHAMAD ABSTRACT This topic focuses on the later history and archaeological heritage of the Malay Johor-Riau-Lingga Sultanate dated from the 16th to 19th century CE (Current Era). This paper includes the study of Kota Sayong Pinang, Batu Sawar, Kota Seluyut, Kampung Makam, Kota Panchor and Kota Johor Lama. The supporting evidence for the discussion in this paper includes a textual study of several Malay texts (such as Sejarah Melayu, Sejarah Negeri Johor, and Sejarah Petempatan di Sepanjang Sungai Johor) and the archaeological record. This research shows that the remains of old forts such as found at Kota Johor Lama, Kota Sayong Pinang, Kota Batu Sawar and Kota Seluyut represent a lot of the material historical and archaeological evidence. The burial sites of the royalty and ruling class, the discovery of gold dinar coins, various weaponry and an overwhelming abundance of ceramics (mostly broken) are among the important discoveries throughout the research. As much as 211 tombstones of the Aceh style were discovered in the state of Johor. The oldest Acheh tombstone in Johor was dated 1453 CE (or 857 Hijrah according to the Islamic calendar) and ceramics dated between 11th and 14th century strongly suggests that there was an earlier kingdom prior to the Malay Johor- Riau-Lingga Sultanate.
