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. -

TIDUNG PEOPLE in SEBATIK ISLAND: ETHNIC IDENTITY, CULTURE, and RELIGIOUS LIFE Muhammad Yamin Sani,1 Agustina Ivonne Poli2 and Gerda K.I
International Journal of Sociology and Anthropology Research Vol.4, No.3, pp.1-11, June 2018 ___Published by European Centre for Research Training and Development UK (www.eajournals.org TIDUNG PEOPLE IN SEBATIK ISLAND: ETHNIC IDENTITY, CULTURE, AND RELIGIOUS LIFE Muhammad Yamin Sani,1 Agustina Ivonne Poli2 and Gerda K.I. Numbery2 Department of Anthropology, Faculty of Political dan Social Science, Hasanuddin University Makassar, Indonesia Department of Anthropology, Faculty of Political dan Social Science, Cenderawasih University Jayapura, Indonesia ABSTRACT: This article is a part of research result entitled “Tidung People at the Border Building Nation, Keeping Harmony: A Study of Interethnic Relations in Nunukan Regency of North Kalimantan.This critical ethnographic research examines the construction of ethnic identity and cultural aspect of Tidung people in Nunukan regency. 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. -
