General context 1) Deforestation and forest degradation in Indonesia Currently, there is little doubt that tropical ecosystems are exceptionally rich and contain much of the terrestrial biodiversity. However, the rapid and extensive forest degradation, involving modification of ecosystems and fragmentation of habitats lead to an alarming loss of biodiversity (Laurence 1999). Most of the 25 “biodiversity hotspots” defined by Myers et al. (2000) are located in the tropics and characterized by high level of endemism and habitats loss. Indonesia overlaps with two of these: the Sundaland (Western Indonesia) and the Wallacea (Eastern Indonesia). As part of the South-Est Asia, the environmental degradation was severe during the recent decades in Indonesia (Sodhi et al. 2004). From 1990 to 2005, Indonesia has lost 21,32 Mha of forest (17,56% of the forest cover), with a mean rate of deforestation on the period 1990-2000 (1,78 Mha/year) three times bigger than on the 2000-2005 period (0,58 Mha/year) (Hansen et al. 2009). Even if the deforestation rates have decreased, the loss of forest still high with more than 500000ha/year lost on the period 2005- 2010 (FAO, 2010). These high rates of deforestation are due to conversion of forest in agricultural lands, commercial logging, fire and mining (Sodhi et al. 2004). 2) Importance of human modified landscapes Facing this severe forest loss, one challenge for the conservationists is the creation of new protected areas (Sodhi et al. 2004). However, the Indonesian protected areas (24Mha) varies widely in their effectiveness (Curran et al. 2004), and may be the source of dispute with local populations (Aumeeruddy 2003, Hariyadi et al. 2012) which are seen as responsible of the forest degradation by governments in tropical countries. In many cases, when protected areas are created, local populations are not allowed to carry on natural resource extraction or agricultural activities leading to conflicts with the local authorities. Moreover, in the tropical regions, 70% of the land is pastures, agriculture or a mixture

A total of 112 species was recorded, including six of Bum's ten endemic species. Four of the endemic species, Pnoniturus mada, Monarcha loricatus, Rhipidura superflua and Zosterops buruensis were found to be quite common, but Lichmera deningeri and Cworacina fortis are considered to be uncommon or rare. The mountains or Burn from where Madanga ruficollis and Rhinomyias addita have previously beea collected were not visited. Concern is expressed concerning the status of two endemic parrots, Charmosyna toxopei and Tanypiathus gramineus, which were not conclusively recorded and which appear to have always been rare. Six species were recorded for the first tune on Buru. Introduction The Manchester Indonesia Islands Expedition visited the island of Buru between 8 Nov and 10 Dec 1989. The aim of the expedition was to obtain data related to the conservation of bird faunas. The results of the analysis of data on the ecology and habitat preferences of the bird species will appear elsewhere. The purpose of this paper is to present a systematic list of birds recorded on Bum by the expedition, and to publish notes collected for some of the species on moult, nests and vocalisations.

The largest and best documented are the events of 1770 and 1859 in the Molucca Sea region, of 1629, 1774 and 1852 in the Banda Sea region, the 1820 event in Makassar, the 1857 event in Dili, Timor, the 1815 event in Bali and Lom- bok, the events of 1699, 1771, 1780, 1815, 1848 and 1852 in Java, and the events of 1797, 1818, 1833 and 1861 in Sumatra. Most of these events caused damage over a broad region, and are asso- ciated with years of temporal and spatial clustering of earthquakes. The earthquakes left many cit- ies in ‘rubble heaps’. Some events spawned tsunamis with run-up heights .15 m that swept many coastal villages away. 2004 marked the recurrence of some of these events in western Indonesia. However, there has not been a major shallow earthquake (M ≥ 8) in Java and eastern Indonesia for the past 160 years.

  • Crisis and Failure: War and Revolt in the Ambon Islands, 1636-1637
    CAKALELE, VOL. 3 (1992) © Gcrrit J. K.naap CRISIS AND FAILURE: WAR AND REVOLT IN THE AMBON ISLANDS, 1636-1637 GERRIT J. KNAAP ROYAL INSTITUTE OF LINGUISTICS AND ANTHROPOLOGY, LEIDEN On January 14, 1637, kimelaha Leliato, the govcmor of the Tematan dependencies in Central Maluku, returned to his headquarters in Lusicla on Hoamoal from an expedition to Sapama with his hongi of 30 kora­ kora. The reason for his sudden rctum was that he had just received a message from Bum informing him of the approach of a large Dutch fleet. That fleet was under the supreme command of Governor-General Anthonic van Diemcn, the hi ghest official in the hierarchy in Asia of the Verenigde Oost-Indischc Compagnie (VOC), the Dutch East India Company. The reason for Van Diemcn's arrival in the islands was the crisis confrdnting VOC mlc there. For many years, since the Dutch had taken over a portion of the islands from the Pottugucsc in 1605, there had been a state of war or, at best, of anned peace with the Tcmatan dependencies in the same area. However, for the past few years the VOC had seen itself also confronted with growing opposition from the territories located between the Tcmatan and Dutch realms. Finally, in 1636, rebellion broke out among the inhabitants of the VOC's own do­ main, who had hitherto mostly supported the Dutch cause with their kora-kora in the hongi (Knaap 1987a: 17-22; Enkhuizen 399:2-3, 16). One might say that the events of 1636-1637 were the severest crisis the Dutch had been confronted with until that time.

  • Korupsi ADD Kelang Asaude, Periksa Camat
    SUBBAG HUMAS DAN TU KALAN MALUKU MEDIA : KABAR TIMUR Kamis, 18 Februari 2016 06:00 Korupsi ADD Kelang Asaude, Periksa Camat PIRU - Jaksa penyidik diminta kembangkan kasus dugaan penggelepan dana ADD Desa Kelang Asaude. Yaitu memeriksa pihak kantor kecamatan dan jajaran instansi teknis di atasnya. Diduga kuat aparat pemerintahan di atasnya dari camat hingga instansi terkait di Pemda Kabupaten SBB ikut terlibat. Dugaan penyimpangan dana ADD Desa Kelang Asaude merupakan kasus pertama di Maluku. Sejak program nasional milik Jokowi itu dilaunching secara nasional akhir tahun lalu. Jika kasus ini terungkap, ini merupakan sebuah prestasi bagi korps adhyaksa di Maluku. Sekaligus jadi pembelajaran awal untuk mencegah kasus-kasus yang sama merebak di seantero negeri dan desa di Maluku. “Camat Manipa Saleman Kibas harus diperiksa, dia harus tanggungjawab. Kok laporan tahap satu belum ada, dana tahap dua bisa cair. Itu karena ada andil camat Kibas,” kata Wakil Ketua Gerakan Pemuda Islam (GPI) Maluku Rimbo Bugis kepada Kabar Timur, Rabu, kemarin. Sialnya, bukan saja laporan pertanggungjawaban tahap I yang belum ada. Laporan yang sama untuk tahap II hingga sekarang pun tidak diketahui rimbanya. Saat pemeriksaan oleh jaksa penyidik Kejari Dataran Honipopu, Senin (15/2) lalu, Bendahara Desa Kelang Asaude Jafar Manitu tidak menyertakan dokumen laporan pertanggungjawaban ADD Tahap I dan II Tahun 2015 yang diminta jaksa penyidik. Belum dipastikan apakah laporan ADD tersebut hilang. Atau karena fiktif dan pelaku takut ketahuan. Atau tidak pernah dibuat sama sekali. Rimbo mengatakan, Saleman Kibas memberikan jaminan kepada pihak Badan Pemberdayaan Masyarakat Desa (BPMD) Kabupaten SBB, sehingga dana tahap dua dimaksud bisa cair. Padahal buntutnya, laporan pertanggungjawaban dana tahap satu ADD Desa Kelang Asaude belum juga dikantongi Camat Manipa Saleman Kibas, hingga saat ini.
