  • An Analysis of the Dominance of Minang Dialect in Kerinci Society
    INOVISH JOURNAL, Vol. 2, No. 2, December 2017 ISSN: 2528-3804 AN ANALYSIS OF THE DOMINANCE OF MINANG DIALECT IN KERINCI SOCIETY Okti Wilymafidini1 1Sekolah Tinggi Ilmu Administrasi Nusantara Sakti (STIA-NUSA) Sekolah Tinggi Ilmu Administrasi Nusantara Sungai Penuh Kerinci Jambi Telp & Fax. (0748) 22872 Email: [email protected] Abstract: This research aims at explaining the dominance of Minang Dialect in Kerinci Society, the factors that influence the dominance of Minang Dialect in Kerinci society and the way to maintain Kerinci language from the influence of Minang language. This is a descriptive research because it described data and characteristics about the phenomenon being studied. The data was gotten through observation. Besides, the researcher also did library research and compared to the theory used to answer the problems in this research. From the data conducted, it can be seen that the dominance of Minang dialects in Kerinci society can be found in the market and in the restaurants. It means that Kerinci language is influenced by Minang language. This is due to Kerinci and Minang are neighbors. Besides, Minang people who stay in Kerinci always use Minang language especially in doing selling and buying transaction and this gives influence to the use of Kerinci language. Thus, to maintain Kerinci language, there are some steps that can be done such as standardization of Kerinci language, so that people know which one is Kerinci language and which one is not. Besides, Kerinci language dictionary should be available and people have to use the original language of Kerinci instead of Minang language in daily communication.

  • Local Resistance in Kerinci in the 20Th Century: Depati Parbo and The
    TAWARIKH: International Journal for Historical Studies, 8(1) October 2016 TAWARIKH: International Journal for Historical Studies, Volume 9(2), April 2018 M. DIEN MADJID & JOHAN WAHYUDI Local Resistance in Kerinci in the 20th Century: Depati Parbo and the People’s Struggle Against the Power of the Dutch East Indies (A Study of Archives and Oral History) ABSTRACT: Kerinci is one of the regencies in Jambi province, Sumatera island, Indonesia. This region has a number of past stories that have not been widely known, especially from outside the region. This historical story still lives in the nuances of locality that spread in a certain area. Local history tales are often underestimated, as they are considered unimportant to be discussed by people from other regions. Beyond that, local history has the potential to correct, alter or add to the familiar historical discourse. One of Kerinci’s local history themes is the story of Depati Parbo’s struggle against Dutch colonialists in the early twentieth century. The Dutch had made Kerinci as the target mastery for a long time. The White people were tempted by the many advantages gained from this effort, such as the mastery over the salt lane, the variety of valuable forest products, and the clearing of plantations. The effort was responded with the defense of Kerinci people raised by the leaders of Kerinci society, including Depati Parbo. This © 2016 by Minda Masagi Press and UIN SGD Bandung, West Java, Indonesia i study uses a social history approach, which photographs social solidarity that grows dueISSN to 2085-0980 a cause.and Thewww .mindamas-journals.com/index.php/tawarikh findings show that the emergence of heroism in the body of Kerinci society is caused by the threat that was spread by the Dutch East Indies troops, who wanted to establish influence there.

  • Pusaka Kerinci Manuscripts
    PUSAKA Kerinci Manuscripts Uli Kozok One can safely say that the Tanjung Tanah manuscript TK 214, originally written in Dharmasraya, some 250 kilometres from Kerinci, owes its existence to the people of Kerinci who safeguarded the manuscript for almost 700 years as one of their sacred heirlooms. It is for this very reason that we find it not only appropriate but necessary to discuss the circumstances that led to the survival of the manuscript and to introduce the amazing collection of manuscripts spread over dozens of villages in the residency of Kerinci. The tradition of keeping sacred heirlooms is not limited to the people of Kerinci but is widespread in the Indonesian archipelago. Although Islam is now universally embraced as the only religion of the Kerinci people, pre- Islamic customs often survived or were reshaped or reinterpreted to be coherent with Islamic beliefs. A unique blend of adat (customs) and agama (religion) is indeed characteristic of the Indonesian society as a whole. The pre-Islamic religion of at least most parts of western Indonesia was characterized by a syncretism of ancestor worshipping with Hindu-Buddhist and animist elements. This set of beliefs did not automatically vanish with the introduction of Islam, and is especially evident in the veneration for the forefathers that still holds a high place among many Muslim Indonesians. The sacred heirlooms called pusaka are a living manifestation of the glory of the ancestors, and were especially important for the traditional ruling elite for whom they served as a concrete symbol of authority, legitimacy, lineage, and succession. 01 TTCL 8thPrf.indd 1 11/26/14 3:22:27 PM Uli Kozok In Kerinci, pusaka are mainly found within the traditional ruling lineages and are in the possession of the depati.

  • Pelestarian Harimau Sumatera Kerinci-Seblat & Associated Program
    Pelestarian Harimau Sumatera Kerinci-Seblat & associated program activities 2005 Kerinci-Seblat Tiger Protection & Conservation Acknowledgements We are grateful to many individuals and organisations in Indonesia and overseas for their support for this program in 2005. We first thank our donors for their generous support for this program and the local NGOs with whom we are now working: National Fish & Wildlife Foundation Exxon-Mobil ‘Save the Tiger’ Fund, United States Fish & Wildlife Service, Bosack & Kruger Foundation, 21st Century Tiger in UK and Dreamworld and the Australia Zoo in Australia. We also extend our grateful thanks to IUCN Holland who are supporting activities by the Jambi chapter of the national NGO WALHI in forests bordering the Sipurak ecosystem on the Kerinci-Merangin district borders. These foundations and organizations not only provided financial support for our work and our partners but, in many cases, were a source of practical advice and help-in-kind – for instance the digital cameras now used by the teams were supplied by Australia Zoo and have revolutionized our ability to quickly document operations and other activities : Many individuals were very generous with their time and expertise; in particular we thank Sarah Christie of 21st Century Tiger, Giles Clark and Dr John Hanger of Australia Zoo and Malay sunbear specialist Gabriella Frederikson. The legal advocacy NGO LASA in Jakarta provided support and lobby for a legal case which showed signs of failing to proceed satisfactorily even though the suspect had been caught red-handed. .. In Indonesia, the team received the support and advice of very many people: for support and encouragement, we thank the director of Kerinci Seblat National Park Dr Suwartono and his deputy, Pak Kholid, Untung Wantoro, who runs the Legal Unit of the national park, and Pak Maraden Purba, director of KSDA in Jambi, and pak Agus Setyabudi, director of KSDA Bengkulu.

Feature 19 Unveiling Secrets of the Past By Mohamed Pitchay Gani Bin through the Passage of Malay Scripts Mohamed Abdul Aziz Teaching Fellow I National Institute of Education Nanyang Technological University “They neither built pyramids of copper, Nor tombstones of bronze for themselves […], But they left their heritage in their writings, In the exhortations that they composed.” From the ancient Egyptian ‘Praise to the scribes’1 INTRODUCTION Early civilisations have left behind vestiges of their existence such as artefacts and monuments that glorify their achievements and accomplishments. Their scripts especially allow modern researchers to peer into the soul of their civilisations. Tham2 deduced that there are interplays between language and culture, and between culture and the environment, with regards to the Malay language and its scripts. Such synergies can be observed in the journey of the Malay manuscript from its earliest form to its modern day script. Consequently the interaction culminates with the oldest Malay script in the world, the oldest manuscript in Southeast Asia, and, more importantly resurrecting new insights on ancient stone inscriptions.

A/P Farid Alatas and Professor Mutalib Hussin were my second and third supervisors and I thank them for their useful suggestions and comments on my work. A/P Hing Ai Yun gave important early suggestions. A/P Maribeth Erb was a continual source of encouragement and insight. Dr. Todd and Anne Ames extended much needed friendship. The administrative staff, especially Choon Lan, Rajah, and Brenda were a great help. Thanks also to A/P John Miksik and Dr. Kyle Latinis. Professor Jim Fox encouraged my focus upon the Naqshbandi Sufi Order. Dr. Geoffrey Benjamin and Dr. Vivienne Wee provoked stimulating discussions on Malay topics. Dr. Michael Roberts encouraged me to think about silat and death. Dr. Ellis Finkelstein taught me the ethnographic method.
