Paradoxically, although livelihood is a major concern for these communities, their integration into the mainstream of development seems a remote and endless problem.

Firstly, it discusses the socio-economic dynamics of the Sarawak-Kalimantan border com- munities whose villages are obscured from the mainstream of development.

  • Kalimantan Barat, Indonesia - Sarawak, Malaysia “Head to Head”
    Borderlands and Tourism Development in Kalimantan Island: Kalimantan Barat, Indonesia - Sarawak, Malaysia “Head to Head” Syaiful Muazir Department of Architecture, Tanjungpura University, Pontianak, Indonesia [email protected] Horng-Chang Hsieh Department of Urban Planning, National Cheng Kung University, Tainan, Taiwan [email protected] As part of the regions that share lands and boundaries, Sarawak-Malaysia and Kalimantan Barat- Indonesia have respective characteristics in the borderlands treatment. This paper aims to explore and compare the border areas between two nations, ranging from the borderlands profiles, (tourism) development and planning, and their opportunities. Besides, this paper also wants to highlight tourism development as one of the strategies. This paper uses documentary research to seek “text and context” by narratively describing and compiling the documents. From the discussion, it can be seen that both regions have different characteristics of conditions and problems. For tourism development, different approaches are also “colored” with timing, momentum, and priorities; as influenced and supported by the national plans. Tourism in the borderlands is the impetus in which each regions has already been aware of this potential because of the traction of informal flow, accessibility, supply, and demand. Furthermore, we argue that if tourism has exist at the first place, in the future, by its backward linkages, it will encourage more physical and economic development and cooperation between nations.

There is a concept of “blood-brothers” that can be tracked through Indonesia and Malaysia have a long historical ideology, history, commonalities of race, ethnicity, background of bilateral relations, as well as on the and cultural forms.

  • Malaria in Sarawak and Brunei* Julian De Zulueta, M.D., D.T.M
    Bull. Org. mond. Sante l 15, Bull. Wid Hith Org. 1956, 651-671 MALARIA IN SARAWAK AND BRUNEI* JULIAN DE ZULUETA, M.D., D.T.M. & H. Medical Officer, World Health Organization Sarawak Malaria Pilot Project, Marudi (Baram), Sarawak SYNOPSIS A general malaria survey of Sarawak and Brunei, two of the territories of British Borneo, is described. Contrary to what was expected in view of the climate and the general conditions, the prevalence of malaria in Sarawak and Brunei proved, on the average, to be low. The coastal areas were found to be practically free from the disease, although epidemics have occurred there in recent years. Malaria was found to be endemic in the hilly and mountainous interior. In fact, topography proved to be an important factor in malaria prevalence, the spleen- and parasite-rates, generally speak- ing, being higher the more abrupt the country. Differences were also observed in the prevalence among the various racial groups, but these were considered to be due to different habits and customs rather than to race itself. Entomological studies showed that Anopheles leucosphyrus Donitz was the main malaria vector in the interior of Sarawak, A. barbirostris playing a secondary role. A. leucosphyrus balabacensis had already been reccgnized as the malaria vector in Brunei. The favourable results of a first field trial of residual insecticides are mentioned and plans for a nation-wide malaria-control pro- gramme are briefly outlined. The present paper summarizes the results of a general malaria survey of Sarawak and the neighbouring State of Brunei, two British territories on the north-west coast of the Island of Borneo.

    At the edges of states Dynamics of state formation in the Indonesian borderlands At the edges of states At Set in West Kalimantan, Indonesian Borneo, this study explores the shifting relationships between border communities and the state along the political border with East Malaysia. The book rests on the premises that remote border regions o er an exciting study arena that can tell us important things about how marginal citizens relate to their nation-state. The basic assumption is that central state authority in the Indonesian borderlands has never been absolute, but waxes and wanes, and state rules and laws are always up for local interpretation and negotiation. In its role as key symbol of state sovereignty, the borderland has become a place were central state authorities are often most eager to govern and exercise power. But as illustrated, the borderland is also a place were state authority is most likely to be challenged, questioned and manipulated as border communities often have multiple loyalties that transcend state borders and contradict borderlands in the Indonesian of stateDynamics formation imaginations of the state as guardians of national sovereignty and citizenship.
