The Southeast Asian Muslims, for example, once re- garded as being peripheral to the world of Islam, are now becoming recognized as model Muslim leaders with exceptional abilities to manage difficult tasks such as their own coun- try‟s economic development, the Islamic financial system, democratization and even aero- nautics.

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.

Pitana 3 Abstract Gebyog is a traditional Javanese house wall made of wood with a particular pattern. The shape of Javanese houses and gebyog develop over periods of culture and government until today. The shapes of gebyog are greatly influenced by various culture, such as Hindu, Buddhist, Islamic, and Chinese. The Hindu and Buddhist influences of are evident in the shapes of the ornaments and their meanings. The Chinese influence through Islamic culture developing in the archipelago is strong, mainly in terms of the gebyog patterns, wood construction techniques, ornaments, and coloring techniques. The nuance has been felt in the era of Majapahit, Demak, Mataram and at present. The use of ganja mayangkara in Javanese houses of the Majapahit era, the use of Chinese-style gunungan ornaments at the entrance to the Sunan Giri tomb, the saka guru construction technique of Demak mosque, the Kudusnese and Jeparanese gebyog motifs, and the shape of the gebyog patangaring of the house. Keywords: Hindu-Buddhist influence, Chinese influence, the shape of gebyog , Javanese house. DOI : 10.7176/ADS/79-09 Publication date: December 31st 2019 I.

Introduction In terms of numerical strength Gonds are a very dominant tribe of central India. Their habitation includes five different states, namely, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Chattisgarh, Odisha and Telangana. The Gond population according 2011 census in these states is as follows: (i) Andhra Pradesh - 1,44,259 (Now Telangana) (ii) Chhatisgarh - 8,06,254; (iii) Madhya Pradesh - 6,75,011; (iv) Maharastra - 4,41,203 and (v) Odisha - 51,948. The total Gond population is 21,24,852. Out of the total population of India 0.25% is the Gond population. 8,99,567 Gonds are bilinguals knowing two languages (42.34%) and 1,34,156 Gonds are trilinguals knowing three languages (6.31%). As they are spread in a vast area, they have heterogeneously stratified society. They exhibit a cultural variation which is from most primitive to the advanced states. The northern region of Gond habitat shows varying degrees of acculturation whereas the southern region is comparatively less exposed to the external influences. The Gond society consists elements of both the southern and northern social system including kinship norms.

  • LANGUAGE and STATE POWER CSUF Linguistics Colloquium the INEVITABLE RISE of MALAY October 30, 2020 the RISE of MALAY
    Franz Mueller LANGUAGE AND STATE POWER CSUF Linguistics Colloquium THE INEVITABLE RISE OF MALAY October 30, 2020 THE RISE OF MALAY Historically, Malay began as the indigenous language of the eastern peat forest areas on the island of Sumatra. Today, Malay has grown into one of the largest languages in the world, with over 250 million users. Remarkable because Malay never was the largest language in the area (Javanese, Sundanese) nor was it centrally located. Inevitable because whenever it counted, there was no alternative. LANGUAGE SIZE: FACTORS Endangered languages: Factors that lead to endangerment (Brenzinger 1991) Discussion of factors that make a language large have focused on individual speaker choice Today’s point: Languages grow large primarily as a result of them being adopted & promoted by a powerful state Speaker take-up is an epiphenomenon of that. INSULAR SEA: THE MALAY ARCHIPELAGO MALAY VERSUS MALAYSIA Malaysia has 2 land masses: Northern Borneo “Dayak languages”: Iban, Kadazandusun, etc. “Malay peninsula” Aslian languages: Austroasiatic Coastal Borneo & Sumatra as the Malay homeland LANGUAGES OF SUMATRA INSULAR SEA AT THE START OF THE COLONIAL PERIOD Portuguese arrival 1509 in search of the spice islands They discovered that 1 language was understood across the archipelago: Malay Q:Why was this so?

  • Stop Raising Issue of Candidate Lineup, Says Dr Masing
    26 AUG 2001 Sarawak-Polls STOP RAISING ISSUE OF CANDIDATE LINEUP, SAYS DR MASING KUCHING, Aug 26 (Bernama) -- Leaders of Bansa Dayak Sarawak (PBDS), a component party of the Sarawak Barisan Nasional (BN), should stop raising the issue of the party's candidate lineup, its publicity chief, Datuk Dr James Jemut Masing, said today. "As far as I am concerned, the candidate lineup is final as announced by party president Datuk Amar Leo Moggie yesterday," he told reporters after opening a contemporary ceramics exhibition on "Bunga Terung" at a gallery at the waterfront here. He said the leaders should now close ranks and ensure that the BN won the state election. Moggie had said that the list, which had been endorsed by the party's supreme council, was official and only awaiting endorsement from BN chairman Datuk Seri Dr Mahathir Mohamad. Moggie's announcement put to rest speculations that PBDS deputy president Datuk Daniel Tajem was attempting to make a comeback to active politics. It also meant that Tajem will not be getting PBDS's ticket to contest in the upcoming election despite speculations that he would be replacing Mong Dagang for the Bukit Begunan state seat, which was once Tajem's stronghold for 22 years. Moggie had also said that incumbent Datuk Sng Chee Hua (Pelagus) would be replaced by his 22-year old son, Larry, a new trend for PBDS which is to inject the youth spirit into politics. The other PBDS incumbents retained are Dublin Unting (Batang Ai), Gabriel Adit (Ngemah), Joseph Entulu (Tamin), John Sikie Tayai (Kakus), Datuk Dr James Jemut Masing (Baleh) and Stanley Ajang (Belaga).

  • In Collaboration with CSTM/SCTM
    FEREN CON CE PROGRAM laboration with CSTM/ In col SCTM IC TM 2011 WE’RE PROUD TO WELCOME THE 41ST WORLD CONFERENCE OF ICTM to Memorial University and to St. John’s, Newfoundland and Labrador. This is a unique corner of Canada, the only part that was once an independent country and then the newest Canadian province (since 1949) but one of the oldest meeting points for natives and new- comers in North America. With four Aboriginal cultures (Inuit, Innu, Mi’kmaq, Métis); deep French, English, Irish, and Scottish roots; and a rapidly diversifying contemporary society, our citizens have shared a dramatic history, including a tsunami, an occupation during WWII, a fragile dependence on the sea including a cod moratorium in recent decades, a key role in the events of 9/11, and more recently, an oil boom. Its nickname – The Rock – tells a lot about its spectacular geography but also about its resilient culture. Traditional music and dance are key ingredients in life here, as we hope you will learn in the week ahead. Our meetings will take place at Memorial University, shown in the foreground of the photo below, and in the Arts & Culture Centre just to the west of the campus. To celebrate the conference themes in music itself, and to bring the public in contact with the remarkable range of scholars and musicians in our midst, we have organized the SOUNDshift Festival to run concurrently with the World Conference of ICTM. Five concerts, open to delegates and the general public, workshops by ICTM members and musicians featured on the concerts, and films are available as part of this festival.

  • Language Use and Attitudes As Indicators of Subjective Vitality: the Iban of Sarawak, Malaysia
    Vol. 15 (2021), pp. 190–218 http://nflrc.hawaii.edu/ldc http://hdl.handle.net/10125/24973 Revised Version Received: 1 Dec 2020 Language use and attitudes as indicators of subjective vitality: The Iban of Sarawak, Malaysia Su-Hie Ting Universiti Malaysia Sarawak Andyson Tinggang Universiti Malaysia Sarawak Lilly Metom Universiti Teknologi of MARA The study examined the subjective ethnolinguistic vitality of an Iban community in Sarawak, Malaysia based on their language use and attitudes. A survey of 200 respondents in the Song district was conducted. To determine the objective eth- nolinguistic vitality, a structural analysis was performed on their sociolinguistic backgrounds. The results show the Iban language dominates in family, friend- ship, transactions, religious, employment, and education domains. The language use patterns show functional differentiation into the Iban language as the “low language” and Malay as the “high language”. The respondents have positive at- titudes towards the Iban language. The dimensions of language attitudes that are strongly positive are use of the Iban language, Iban identity, and intergenera- tional transmission of the Iban language. The marginally positive dimensions are instrumental use of the Iban language, social status of Iban speakers, and prestige value of the Iban language. Inferential statistical tests show that language atti- tudes are influenced by education level. However, language attitudes and useof the Iban language are not significantly correlated. By viewing language use and attitudes from the perspective of ethnolinguistic vitality, this study has revealed that a numerically dominant group assumed to be safe from language shift has only medium vitality, based on both objective and subjective evaluation.

  • Pleuroschisma, a New Section of Cyrtandra (Gesneriaceae) from Borneo
    Pleuroschisma, a New Section of Cyrtandra (Gesneriaceae) from Borneo O.M. HILLIARD1,B.L. BURTT1AND M.H. BOKHARI' 'Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh, EH3 SLR, U.K. ?Multan. Pakistan Abstract Twelve Bornean species of Cyt~ut~drcrconstitute a new section, Section Ple~msd~isn~u,the name derived from an important diagnostic character, namely the unique fruit with a median septicidal split on each side (not reaching either apex or base of the fruit). Nine of the species and two varieties are newly described, C. ur~gr~sticllipticuHilliard & B.L.Burtt, C. cmc,tu Hilliard & B.L.Burtt, C. imolitu Hilliard & B.L.Burtt, C. lina~iunuB.L.Burtt, C. segn~~ira Hilliard & B.L.Burtt, C. tcssclutu Hilliard & B.L.Burtt, C. tlrnohica Hilliard & B.L.Burtt, C. penditlifeiw Kraenzl. var. gro.s.sipilosu Hilliard & B.L.Burtt and C. sat-u~wket~.si.sC.B.Clarke var. lot~gipilo.raHilliard & B.L.Burtt. Two species recognized remain nameless because the material is inadequate to typify a name. Introduction There are already 40 sectional names in Cyrtandru and the limits and interrelationships of the groups so designated are far from being understood; the addition of yet another sectional name to the list may seem somewhat irresponsible. Nevertheless, the fruit characters that are used to diagnose this section - the smooth fruit wall (due to a thin layer of sclerenchyma beneath the epidermis, Fig. 3), and the septicidal splits with inrolled margins (Fig. 1) form a unique combination in this small group. It is the lateral splits in the fruit-wall that form the basis for the sectional name Pleul-oscAisnza; these splits, it should be noted, are septicidal and there is some reason to suppose that septicidal dehiscence may have been the primitive condition in the family as it is found in Ranlondu, H(xheiYcu, in the type species of Corwliodisc~us,all on the northern fringe of the subfamily Cyrtandroideae, and in the tribe Coronantherae, a basal tribe of subfamily Gesnerioideae found in New Caledonia, E.
