Aceh and Nias Stocktaking of the Reconstruction Effort Rebuilding a Better Aceh and Nias Stocktaking of the Reconstruction Effort Brief for the Coordination Forum Aceh and Nias (CFAN) - October 2005 for the People of Aceh & Nias Together with the International Donor Community Badan Rehabilitasi & Rekonstruksi Rebuilding a Better Aceh and Nias Foreword In the immediate aftermath of the earthquake and tsunami on 26 December 2004, an unprecedented national and international humanitarian effort was galvanized to support the hundreds of thousands of victims in Aceh and North Sumatra. The basic needs of food, water, shelter and health were rapidly met. This effort, led by the government, NGOs and international donors, prevented additional suffering in what was a human tragedy of unspeakable proportions. Nine months later, a vital transition is occurring. Most activities moved beyond immediate relief into support for long-term recovery. This transition entails getting people out of tents and into permanent shelter, restoring legal rights, transitioning emergency water supplies into permanent facilities, re-establishing agricultural land and markets, re-building schools, restocking educational supplies. It means moving from cash-for-work to restoring livelihoods and the local economy. It entails institution building and physical reconstruction on a massive scale. Most of all it is about reviving shattered communities and restoring hope and self-sufficiency to the people of Aceh and Nias. This report, coming nine months after the terrible disaster, is intended to inform the October 4 “Coordination Forum for Aceh and Nias” (CFAN) and takes a snapshot of progress on the reconstruction efforts. It documents achievements thus far and, learning from experience over the past nine months, identifies key gaps and challenges to be addressed in the coming period. The report is a collaborative effort between the BRR and the international donor community. It has drawn on the expertise and input of countless partners in the Indonesian government, local universities and among local and foreign NGOs. This report substantially updates an earlier version that was produced in June 2005 for the six months’ anniversary. This report also includes a new section that looks at the implications of the peace process in Aceh. New information and analysis has been incorporated into all chapters and most recent data have helped to particularly inform the sectoral, economic and financial dimensions of the reconstruction process. We hope that this report will serve as a basis for making programming decisions and turning plans into concrete achievements on the ground to build back a better Aceh and Nias.

  • Same Planet, a Different World
    The following is a firsthand account of a medical-relief mission to western Indonesia that Dennis Whitehead, MD ’75, undertook in March 2005 in response to severe earthquakes that devastated the region only months after the tsunami struck. As this issue of Buffalo Physician was going to press, Hurricane Katrina hit the Gulf Coast. We contacted Whitehead and asked him if he had been involved in relief efforts following the storm. We learned he had just Same Planet, a Different World returned from six days of working with the Louisiana Department of Health and Hospitals to support search-and- rescue efforts in downtown New Orleans, assist boat crews in the flooded areas, treat rescue workers, complete MEDICAL RELIEF IN INDONESIA, POST-TSUNAMI AND EARTHQUAKE EMS site surveys and examine shelter patients in rural St. Tammany Parish, northeast of New Orleans.

  • HISTORY, AUTHORITY and POWER a Case of Religious Violence in Aceh
    JajatDOI: Burhanuddin 10.15642/JIIS.2014.8.1.112 -138 HISTORY, AUTHORITY AND POWER A Case of Religious Violence in Aceh Jajat Burhanudin1 UIN Syarif Hidayatullah, Jakarta – Indonesia | [email protected] Abstract: This article discusses the way Islam transformed into an ideology that potentially used as justification for violence. By analising the case of the murder of Teungku Ayub, leader of a small circle for basic religious learning (pengajian) in Bireun, Aceh, in 2012, the study reveals to the role of Islam as an ideology of mass movement to cleanse deviant tenet (aliran sesat) among the Acehnese. This is because of two reasons. First, the term of the veranda of Mecca (serambi Mekkah) remains considered as “holy word” in the Acehnese society today, which supports any Islamic agenda of purifying Aceh from aliran sesat. Secondly, the adoption of Islam into a formal body of state (Aceh province) represented by the implementation of Islamic law (sharīʻah). Both reasons above strengthen ulama in Aceh to facilitate the mass movement in the name of religion as well as the rationale background of the murder of Teungku Ayub. Keywords: ulama (teungku), Dien al Syariah, religious violence. Introduction This article attempts to shed light on the incident that took place in Biruen, a small town in Aceh, at 16 November 2012. It is located 1 I should thank to some people who assisted me during the field research in Aceh. They are Sahlan Hanafiyah, lecturer at State Islamic University ar-Raniri in Banda Aceh, and Setyadi Sulaiman as a research assistant from Jakarta.

  • Hans Harmakaputra, Interfaith Relations in Contemporary Indonesia
    Key Issues in Religion and World Affairs Interfaith Relations in Contemporary Indonesia: Challenges and Progress Hans Abdiel Harmakaputra PhD Student in Comparative Theology, Boston College I. Introduction In February 2014 Christian Solidarity Worldwide (CSW) published a report concerning the rise of religious intolerance across Indonesia. Entitled Indonesia: Pluralism in Peril,1 this study portrays the problems plaguing interfaith relations in Indonesia, where many religious minorities suffer from persecution and injustice. The report lists five main factors contributing to the rise of religious intolerance: (1) the spread of extremist ideology through media channels, such as the internet, religious pamphlets, DVDs, and other means, funded from inside and outside the country; (2) the attitude of local, provincial, and national authorities; (3) the implementation of discriminatory laws and regulations; (4) weakness of law enforcement on the part of police and the judiciary in cases where religious minorities are victimized; and (5) the unwillingness of a “silent majority” to speak out against intolerance.2 This list of factors shows that the government bears considerable responsibility. Nevertheless, the hope for a better way to manage Indonesia’s diversity was one reason why Joko Widodo was elected president of the Republic of Indonesia in October 2014. Joko Widodo (popularly known as “Jokowi”) is a popular leader with a relatively positive governing record. He was the mayor of Surakarta (Solo) from 2005 to 2012, and then the governor of Jakarta from 2012 to 2014. People had great expectations for Jokowi’s administration, and there have been positive improvements during his term. However, Human Rights Watch (HRW) World Report 2016 presents negative data regarding his record on human rights in the year 2015, including those pertaining to interfaith relations.3 The document 1 The pdf version of the report can be downloaded freely from Christian Solidarity Worldwide, “Indonesia: Pluralism in Peril,” February 14, 2014.

  • CHAPTER V CLOSING 5.1 Conclusion Ethnic Minority Entrepreneurship Has Become a Phenomenon That Is Widely Found in All Parts of T
    CHAPTER V CLOSING 5.1 Conclusion Ethnic minority entrepreneurship has become a phenomenon that is widely found in all parts of the world. This type of entrepreneurship is driven by migration out of the place of origin to get better opportunities in other areas. The movement that occurs causes people from one ethnic group to join with other ethnic groups in the destination. This assimilation causes ethnic migrants to be outnumbered by local ethnic groups in the destination that have been there for a long time. This has led to the term ethnic minority. Efforts to earn income through doing business by ethnic minority then formed the term ethnic minority entrepreneurship. Nias is an ethnic who has a long history with West Sumatra area, especially the city of Padang. Although still outnumbered by Minangkabau ethnicity, Nias people in Padang City already have strong roots because of the nature of Nias people who have a strong sense of kinship. From an economic standpoint, over time, progressive changes have been found in the economic order of the Nias community in the city of Padang. In the past Nias people only worked as farmers, becoming fishermen or laborers in the city of Padang. Now, Nias people in Padang who are a minority have found livelihoods in various fields, including entrepreneurship. Those who originally came with limited language differences, mediocre education and did not have the capital managed to make a 132 decent living and raise the dignity of their ancestors who had set foot first in the city of Padang with low standard of life.

South Nias is one of many regions in Indonesia that still mantains the existence of traditional settlement. Villages in this regency have unique characteristic shown from their linear forms with two rows of houses facing each other. Although the villages all seem similar, but in fact, there are three different spatial patterns. This research would be related with the disparity of these traditional settlement patterns. Qualitative method was used in this research by obtaining data through field observations, interviews, and literature study. The result reveals that the traditional settlement patterns were in the shapes of branched linear, I-shaped linear, and T-shaped linear. This classification was based on the variation of shapes and location of the village material components. Another purpose in this research is to do a documentation about South Nias traditional villages including their original components which become scarce nowadays due to being damaged by natural factors or deliberately replaced by modern components. Keywords: South Nias, Traditional Village, Spatial Pattern Abstrak. Nias Selatan adalah salah satu wilayah di Indonesia yang masih mempertahankan keberadaan permukiman tradisional. Desa-desa yang ditemukan di kabupaten tersebut memiliki karakteristik yang unik, yaitu berbentuk linear dengan dua baris rumah yang saling berhadapan.

  • Population Displacement and Mobility in Sumatra After the Tsunami
    Population Displacement and Mobility in Sumatra after the Tsunami Clark Gray1, Elizabeth Frankenberg1, Thomas Gillespie2, Cecep Sumantri3, and Duncan Thomas1 August 2009 Abstract The Indian Ocean tsunami of December, 2004 was one of the most severe natural disasters in human history and resulted in extensive relocation by people living in damaged areas. We describe post-tsunami geographic mobility in the provinces of Aceh and North Sumatra in Indonesia, the area worst-affected by the tsunami. Data from a unique longitudinal survey of 10,000 households who were interviewed both before and after the tsunami are used to quantify and map various dimensions of mobility and to provide insights into the individual, household and contextual factors that influence mobility. Levels of mobility increased dramatically with the extent of tsunami damage. Displacement from heavily damaged areas occurred primarily beyond the community of origin. Results from multivariate statistical models indicate that in damaged areas individuals were displaced similarly across demographic and socioeconomic lines, and that semi-voluntary decisions about mobility were influenced by household assets and prior livelihood strategies. Keywords: tsunami, disaster, displacement, migration, Indonesia. 1 Duke University, 2 UCLA, 3 SurveyMeter, Yogyakarta, Indonesia Acknowledgements This project is part of a large, collaborative effort and we would like to thank our colleagues Jed Friedman, Peter Katz, Nick Ingwersen, Iip Rif’ai, Bondan Sikoki and Wayan Suriastini for their input into this study and the broader project.
