  • Mantle Structure and Tectonic History of SE Asia
    Nature and Demise of the Proto-South China Sea ROBERT HALL, H. TIM BREITFELD SE Asia Research Group, Department of Earth Sciences, Royal Holloway University of London, Egham, Surrey, TW20 0EX, United Kingdom Abstract: The term Proto-South China Sea has been used in a number of different ways. It was originally introduced to describe oceanic crust that formerly occupied the region north of Borneo where the modern South China Sea is situated. This oceanic crust was inferred to have been Mesozoic, and to have been eliminated by subduction beneath Borneo. Subduction was interpreted to have begun in Early Cenozoic and terminated in the Miocene. Subsequently the term was also used for inferred oceanic crust, now disappeared, of quite different age, notably that interpreted to have been subducted during the Late Cretaceous below Sarawak. More recently, some authors have considered that southeast-directed subduction continued until much later in the Neogene than originally proposed, based on the supposition that the NW Borneo Trough and Palawan Trough are, or were recently, sites of subduction. Others have challenged the existence of the Proto-South China Sea completely, or suggested it was much smaller than envisaged when the term was introduced. We review the different usage of the term and the evidence for subduction, particularly under Sabah. We suggest that the term Proto-South China Sea should be used only for the slab subducted beneath Sabah and Cagayan between the Eocene and Early Miocene. Oceanic crust subducted during earlier episodes of subduction in other areas should be named differently and we use the term Paleo- Pacific Ocean for lithosphere subducted under Borneo in the Cretaceous.

  • The North Kalimantan Communist Party and the People's Republic Of
    The Developing Economies, XLIII-4 (December 2005): 489–513 THE NORTH KALIMANTAN COMMUNIST PARTY AND THE PEOPLE’S REPUBLIC OF CHINA FUJIO HARA First version received January 2005; final version accepted July 2005 In this article, the author offers a detailed analysis of the history of the North Kalimantan Communist Party (NKCP), a political organization whose foundation date itself has been thus far ambiguous, relying mainly on the party’s own documents. The relation- ships between the Brunei Uprising and the armed struggle in Sarawak are also referred to. Though the Brunei Uprising of 1962 waged by the Partai Rakyat Brunei (People’s Party of Brunei) was soon followed by armed struggle in Sarawak, their relations have so far not been adequately analyzed. The author also examines the decisive roles played by Wen Ming Chyuan, Chairman of the NKCP, and the People’s Republic of China, which supported the NKCP for the entire period following its inauguration. INTRODUCTION PRELIMINARY study of the North Kalimantan Communist Party (NKCP, here- after referred to as “the Party”), an illegal leftist political party based in A Sarawak, was published by this author in 2000 (Hara 2000). However, the study did not rely on the official documents of the Party itself, but instead relied mainly on information provided by third parties such as the Renmin ribao of China and the Zhen xian bao, the newspaper that was the weekly organ of the now defunct Barisan Sosialis of Singapore. Though these were closely connected with the NKCP, many problems still remained unresolved. In this study the author attempts to construct a more precise party history relying mainly on the party’s own information and docu- ments provided by former members during the author’s visit to Sibu in August 2001.1 –––––––––––––––––––––––––– This paper is an outcome of research funded by the Pache Research Subsidy I-A of Nanzan University for the academic year 2000.

  • Indonesia As a Poorly Performing State? Andrew Macintyre
    04-1-933286-05-9 chap4 4/22/06 10:48 AM Page 117 4 Indonesia as a Poorly Performing State? Andrew MacIntyre n the years since the historic upheavals of 1998, Indonesia has struggled Iwith the twin challenges of rebuilding its economy and constructing a viable framework for democratic governance. This has been a turbulent period, with prolonged economic difficulties, weak and frequently changing political leadership, and widespread problems of sectarian violence that have called the very territorial integrity of the republic into question. These recent travails have brought greater international attention to the country than did the three decades of rapid economic growth and strict but stable authoritar- ian rule under former president General Suharto. Understandably, there has been much worried discussion in policy circles within the United States and elsewhere about whether Indonesia, rather than embarking on a new and optimistic democratic era, is in fact in danger of becoming caught in a stag- nant or even downward developmental trajectory. Is Indonesia, the fourth most populous country in the world, at risk of developing that combustible mix of economic stagnation and systematically weak governance that charac- terizes the phenomenon of poorly performing states? The aim of this chapter is to assess Indonesia’s developmental trajectory, giving particular emphasis to outlining the economic and political challenges the country is wrestling with, and to reflect upon the implications of Indone- sia’s trajectory for U.S. policy. I begin with an overview of Indonesia’s past 117 04-1-933286-05-9 chap4 4/22/06 10:48 AM Page 118 118 Andrew MacIntyre record of economic and political development and then focus on the con- temporary situation and whether Indonesia is appropriately considered a poorly performing state.

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.

    4. PRESENT CONDITIONS OF THE PRINCIPAL RIVER PORT IN KALIMANTAN 4.1 Regional Development Plans 4.1.1 General (1) Kalimantan 1) Topography Indonesia Kalimantan occupies about three fourths of Kalimantan Island. Many rivers flow from mountain areas and run into Karimantan Strait, Jawa Sea and Makassar Strait, formulating huge lowlands. Our target ports, Ports of Pontianak, Kumai, Sampit and Samarinda, are located near estuaries of Kapuas River, Kumai River, Sampit River and Mahakam River respectively. 2) Area and Population Area and population of Kalimantan account for 547,891 km2 and 11.4 million (1999) as shown in Table 4.1.1. Population density of the three provinces is very low comparing the state average.

  • Sumatera and Kalimantan Fires and Haze
    Emergency Situation Report # 1 29 August 2006 Sumatera and Kalimantan Fires and Haze Background The annual forest fires have arrived again in many parts of Kalimantan and Sumatra Island, where over 7,000 hotspots have sprung up, producing choking smoke that has spilled over to neighboring Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand and Brunei. It started taking place in May and the number of hotspots increased by the beginning of July 2006. According to government officials and environmentalists, forest fires in Indonesia are mostly caused by humans (community people and companies), following slash and burn methods to clear land for plantations. Currently, the number of hotspots continues to fluctuate. Type of Disaster Forest Fires and Haze. Location The forest fires are mainly concentrated in Sumatra (Riau, Jambi and South Sumatra Provinces) and Kalimantan (Central, East and West) Islands. Sumatera Island Kalimantan Island Notes: The red circles show the area where the forest and land fires are taking place. 1 Emergency Situation Report # 1 29 August 2006 Current Situation According to the media, 6,800 hectares of land in Riau Province and 10,000 hectares in Jambi Province have been burnt.

  • Indonesia: Durable Solutions Needed for Protracted Idps As New Displacement Occurs in Papua
    13 May 2014 INDONESIA Durable solutions needed for protracted IDPs as new displacement occurs in Papua At least three million Indonesians have been internally displaced by armed conflict, violence and human rights violations since 1998. Most displacement took place between 1998 and 2004 when Indonesia, still in the early stages of democratic transition and decentralisation, experienced a period of intense social unrest characterised by high levels of inter-commu- nal, inter-faith and separatist violence. Although the overwhelming majority of 34 families displaced since 2006 have been living in this abandoned building in Mata- Indonesia’s IDPs have long returned home at ram, West Nusa Tenggara province, Indonesia. (Photo: Dwianto Wibowo, 2012) least 90,000 remain in protracted displacement, over a decade after the end of these conflicts. Many are unable to return due to lack of government as- sistance to recover lost rights to housing, land and property. In areas affected by inter-communal violence communities have been transformed and segregated along religious or ethnic lines. Unresolved land dis- putes are rife with former neighbours often unwilling to welcome IDPs back. IDPs who sought to locally in- tegrate in areas where they have been displaced, or who have been relocated by the government, have also struggled to rebuild their lives due to lack of access to land, secure tenure, livelihoods and basic services. Over the past ten years, new displacement has also continued in several provinces of Indonesia, although at much reduced levels. According to official government figures some 11,500 people were displaced between 2006 and 2014, including 3,000 in 2013 alone.
