THG Holidays is a fully bonded tour operator and holds a trading license with ABTA, ATOL and IATA. OUR PRICES We have made a deliberate point of not including any prices in the brochure this year. This is because the economic conditions we are working in are becoming increasingly more volatile and prices of key components such as hotels and airfares are changing on a regular basis. When this is coupled with fluctuating fuel prices and airline taxes we find that brochure prices are far less relevant than in the past. As a consequence, please use this brochure as a collection of ideas and hotel recommendations and contact THG Holidays or your local travel agent to determine the best available price.

Various efforts were made by the Government of Indonesia to provide a territorial comprehension in order to make the younger generation understand about the circumstances of their country. One effective way is through Territorial Atlas of The Republic of Indonesia, which is the result from collaboration project between Geospatial Information Agency and Ministry of Education and Culture of Indonesia. This atlas is intended towards the benefit of teenage children, who are taking middle education level between the ages of 12-15 years. It is necessary for children at that age to be equipped with spatial intelligence related to the territorial comprehension of Indonesia, the historical development of the Republic of Indonesia, and also the natural resources potential of their country. This comprehension is needed considering that adolescence is a vulnerable age who require self-actualization, so they need to get a correct understanding of the NKRI region in order to foster the sense of nationalism.

  • The Mayas a Transplanted Indian Civilization
    THE MAYAS A TRANSPLANTED INDIAN CIVILIZATION by Alain Verdier In several speeches given between 1979 and 1988, indian philosopher and historian P.R. Sarkar made startling revelaons concerning the Mayan civilizaBon. According to him, the Mayan civilizaBon was a « transplanted Indian civilizaBon. It went From South India to Central America during the Chola, Pandya and Pallava dynasBes oF the Indian Middle Ages. » He specifically indicated that it first migrated to Central America during the rule oF the Pallavas. This period corresponds to the Classic Period oF the Mayan civilizaBon (4th to 10th century) which also sees a peak in large-scale construcBons and urbanism. Due to the contacts between India and America, many centuries beFore the discovery oF that conBnent by Christopher Colombus, the Indian and the transplanted Mayan civilizaBon existed side by side. Sarkar actually explained that ‘Mayadviipa’ (Mayan island), the Sanskrit name For America, came From the name oF the Mayan civilizaBon. However, while the Indians had invented the wheel several millenia beFore, the Mayas lagged behind due to the Fact that they never knew its use. Sarkar once pointed out that a true civilizaBon must have Four signs oF progress : agriculture, wheel, dress and script. According to him, many old civilizaBons disapeared From the annals oF history because they simply could not invent the wheel and could not make carts and chariots. It was For that very reason that the Mayan civilizaBon had its downFall and was Forced in subsequent Bmes to concede deFeat at the hands oF other civilizaBons.

  • East Java – Bali Power Distribution Strengthening Project
    *OFFICIAL USE ONLY PT PLN (Persero) East Java – Bali Power Distribution Strengthening Project Environmental & Social Management Planning Framework (Version for Disclosure) January 2020 *OFFICIAL USE ONLY BASIC INFORMATION 1. Country and Project Name: Indonesia – East Java & Bali Power Distribution Strengthening Project 2. Project Development Objective: The expansion of the distribution network comprises erection of new poles, cable stringing, and installation of distribution transformers. 3. Expected Project Benefits: Construction of about 17,000 km distribution lines and installation of distribution transformers in East Java and Bali 4. Identified Project Environmental and Social Risks: Social Risks. It is envisaged that this project will require (i) use of no more than 0.2 m2 of land for installation of concrete poles and approximately 4m2 for installation of transformers (either in cabinet of between two concrete poles or on one pole); limited directional drilling (approx. 200-300m) to run cables under major roads and limited trenching (usually less than 500m) in urban environments, and (iii) possible removal of non-land assets (primarily trimming or felling of trees) for stringing of conductors. While restrictions on land use within the existing right of way apply, the land requirements for the distribution network (lines and transformers) are considered manageable with normal mitigation measures. Project activities will not (i) require land acquisition, (ii) cause physical or economic displacement; and/or (ii) result in adverse impacts to Indigenous Peoples groups and/or members of ethnic minorities. Environmental risks are principally induced by the establishment of the network across natural habitats and potential impact on fauna (in particular avifauna and terrestrial fauna susceptible to access the distribution lines or transformers such as monkeys or other tree dwelling scavenging animals that frequent semi urban environments), and the management of waste (e.g.

  • Chapter Eight Monuments, Mediums & the Municipality: Constructing
    Chapter Eight Monuments, Mediums & the Municipality: Constructing Chineseness and Sacred Space in Hat Yai “No need to go to Phuket, no need to go to Trang.” A PA laden pickup repeatedly blared out this message as it followed a parade of palanquin‐ borne deities and spirit mediums through the streets of Hat Yai during the 2001 Vegetarian Festival, a ritual event which has long been practised by the Chinese of peninsular Southeast Asia but has in recent years been gaining wider popularity. The procession was organised by the Thep Na Ja shrine and run by a native of Phuket who had moved to Hat Yai several years before. It featured the kinds of spectacular self‐mortification and other ‘superhuman’ feats performed by spirit mediums that have become the notorious hallmarks of the Vegetarian Festivals held in Phuket and Trang. Hat Yai, despite its overwhelmingly Chinese population and character, has no such long association with the Festival. In fact such spectacular public displays can only be traced back a few years. Nonetheless, the PA announcement listed the full gamut of ritual performances that would take place: bladed‐bridge and ladder climbing, bathing in boiling oil, walking on hot coals, piercing and other forms of self‐mortification. While such performances are inherently ‘theatrical’ in nature, they are also aspects of worship. This announcement thus promised more than an upcoming spectacle; it also announced a new location for the authentic worship of the Nine Emperor Gods, the deities at the centre of the Festival. Such activity set Hat Yai in direct competition with the established Festivals of Phuket and Trang, promising a complete and authentic transplantation of the Festival experience, both sensory and sacred, to this new location.

Tujuannya adalah untuk mengetahui bagaimana proses dan bentuk strategi akulturasi masyarakat Batak di Pontianak. Ciri khas yang dimiliki Kalimantan Barat yaitu mengidentikkan etnis dengan agama tertentu, membuat etnis Batak selalu diidentikkan dengan agama Kristiani, agama yang sama dengan salah satu etnis yang pernah berkonflik. Masyarakat Batak di Pontianak dalam catatan sejarah, tidak pernah terlibat dalam konflik yang telah sering terjadi di Kalimantan Barat. Hal ini menjadi ketertarikan tersendiri untuk mengetahui bagaimana pola akulturasi masyarakat Batak di Pontianak. Metode yang digunakan adalah kualitatif deskriptif dengan teknik pengumpulan data yaitu wawancara dan observasi.
