Understanding the Meaning of Wayang Kulit Performance using Thick Description Approach Mario Nugroho Willyarto1, Krismarliyanti2 and Ulani Yunus3 1 Language Center, Primary Teacher Education Department, Faculty of Humanities, Bina Nusantara University, Jakarta, Indonesia 11480 2Independent Writer 3 Marketing Communication Program, Communication Department, Faculty of Economics & Communication, Bina Nusantara University, Jakarta, Indonesia 11480 Keywords: Wayang Kulit, Thick Description, Cultural Heritage Abstract: This paper described the meaning of Wayang Kulit in Javanese philosophy, a brief description of the figures represented by the puppets. Wayang is one of the cultural heritages of Java which is very deep understanding of the culture and character of the people of Indonesia. The meaning of symbols of wayang is the focus of this paper. The symbols are represented by character of Semar, Bagong, Petruk and Gareng. What is the role wayang in daily life, especially for Indonesian people, is becoming the main discussion as well. There are a lot of wayang performances that have a deep meaning of the life itself. Although there are some scholars who say that wayang is originally from India but it is not proved and, in the end, people accepted that wayang came from Java. Opinion about wayang originated from India was because the story in the puppet was adapted from the Mahabharata story originating from India. Using the concept of thick description by Clifford Geertz, the author tries to explain about the history and character of the puppet figures according to Javanese philosophy. Prominent figures such as Semar, Gareng, Petruk and Bagong were the reflection of the ideal human being depicted with an imperfect physical form. -

A Lesson from Borobudur
5 Changing perspectives on the relationship between heritage, landscape and local communities: A lesson from Borobudur Daud A. Tanudirjo, Jurusan Arkeologi, Fakultas Ilmu Budaya, Universitas Gadjah Mada, Yogyakarta Figure 1. The grandeur of the Borobudur World Heritage site has attracted visitors for its massive stone structure adorned with fabulous reliefs and stupas laid out in the configuration of a Buddhist Mandala. Source: Daud Tanudirjo. The grandeur of Borobudur has fascinated almost every visitor who views it. Situated in the heart of the island of Java in Indonesia, this remarkable stone structure is considered to be the most significant Buddhist monument in the Southern Hemisphere (Figure 1). In 1991, Borobudur 66 Transcending the Culture–Nature Divide in Cultural Heritage was inscribed on the World Heritage List, together with two other smaller stone temples, Pawon and Mendut. These three stone temples are located over a straight line of about three kilometres on an east-west orientation, and are regarded as belonging to a single temple complex (Figure 2). Known as the Borobudur Temple Compound, this World Heritage Site meets at least three criteria of the Operational Guidelines for the Implementation of the World Heritage Convention: (i) to represent a masterpiece of human creative genius, (ii) to exhibit an important interchange of human values over a span of time or within cultural area of the world, on developments in architecture or technology, monumental arts, town planning or landscape design, and (iii) to be directly or tangibly associated with events or living traditions, with ideas, or with beliefs, with artistic and literacy works of outstanding universal value (see also Matsuura 2005). -
The Perceived Destination Image of Indonesia: an Assessment on Travel Blogs Written by the Industry’S Top Markets
The perceived destination image of Indonesia: an assessment on travel blogs written by the industry’s top markets By Bernadeth Petriana A thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Tourism Management Victoria University of Wellington 2017 1 Abstract The tourist gaze theory suggests that tourists are taught by the destination marketing organisation to know how, when, and where to look. However, the birth of travel blogs has challenged this image as they offer the public “unfiltered” information. Travel bloggers have become more powerful in influencing the decision making of potential tourists. This study employs textual and photographic content analysis to investigate the destination image of Indonesia held by the industry’s key markets; Singapore and Australia. 106 blog entries and over 1,500 pictures were content analysed, and the results suggest that overall tourists tended to have positive images of Indonesia. International tourists are still very much concentrated in the traditionally popular places such as Bali and Jakarta. Negative images of Indonesia include inadequate infrastructure, ineffective wildlife protection, and westernisation of Bali. Natural and cultural resources are proven in this thesis to be Indonesia’s top tourism products. Influenced by their cultural backgrounds, Singaporean and Australian bloggers have demonstrated a dissimilar tourist gaze. The current study also analysed the bloggers’ image of Indonesia as opposed to the image projected by the government through the national tourism brand “Wonderful Indonesia”. The results indicate a narrow gap between the two images. Implications for Indonesian tourism practitioners include stronger law enforcement to preserve local culture and natural attractions, and recognising the market’s preference to promote other destinations. -

Action Agenda for a New Food and Land Use Economy in Indonesia
ACTION AGENDA FOR A NEW FOOD AND LAND USE ECONOMY IN INDONESIA FOOD AND LAND USE COALITION INDONESIA DRAFT FOR CONSULTATION JAKARTA, NOVEMBER 2019 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Indonesia is at an important moment in its history. President Jokowi has set out his priorities for his second term in office, including economic growth, deregulation, infrastructure development, innovation and technology (Widodo, 2019). He has placed a strong focus on human resources development and on improving the lives and prospects of young Indonesians in particular. He has spoken of the need for Indonesians to eat healthier food and of his deep desire to put an end to the stunting and malnutrition which continue to affect many millions of Indonesian citizens. Finally, the President has also articulated his desire to protect Indonesia’s unique environment, including by preventing further deforestation and loss of peatland, devolving land and power to Indonesia’s rural and indigenous communities, and reversing the deterioration of Indonesia’s air quality due to haze, fires and air pollution. The Government of Indonesia has set out an ambitious vision on climate and sustainable development, articulated in Indonesia’s ‘Vision 2045’ and in the National Planning Department BAPPENAS’ signature ‘Low Carbon Development Initiative’ (or ‘LCDI’; BAPPENAS, 2019). The LCDI demonstrates how robust climate action would generate strong and sustained economic growth, more and better jobs for the Indonesian people, and enable Indonesia to meet the UN Sustainable Development Goals and Paris Agreement. In particular, the LCDI describes how concerted action on food and land use will be critical to meeting Indonesia’s low carbon goals, given that at least 52 percent of the country’s greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs) are attributable to the food and land use sector. -
Indonesia Study 2
Chapter 2. The Society and Its Environment The figure on the right is a cantrik, a student who is servant to a priest. Here he accompanies a cangik, a maidservant to a princess, or demo ness, who fights on the side of evil. INDONESIA'S SOCIAL AND GEOGRAPHICAL environment is one of the most complex and varied in the world. Byone count, at least 669 distinct languages and well over 1,100 different dialects are spoken in the archipelago. The nation encompasses some 13,667 islands; the landscape ranges from rain forests and steamingman- grove swamps to arid plains and snowcapped mountains. Major world religions—Islam, Christianity, Buddhism, and Hinduism— are represented. Political systems vary from the ornate sultans' courts of Central Java to the egalitarian communities of hunter- gatherers of Sumatran jungles. A wide variety of economic patterns also can be found within Indonesia's borders, from rudimentary slash-and-burn agriculture to highly sophisticated computer micro- chip assembly plants. Some Indonesian communities relyon tra- ditional feasting systems and marriage exchange for economic distribution, while others act as sophisticated brokers in interna- tional trading networks operating throughout the South China Sea. Indonesians also have a wide variety of living arrangements. Some go home at night to extended families living in isolated bamboo longhouses, others return to hamlets of tiny houses clustered around a mosque, whereas still others go home to nuclear families in ur- ban high-rise apartment complexes. There are, however, striking similarities among the nation's diverse groups. Besides citizenship in a common nation-state, the single most unifying cultural characteristic is a shared linguistic heritage. -

Three Eras of Indonesian Arts Diplomacy
Bijdragen tot de Taal-, Land- en Volkenkunde 175 (2019) 253–283 bki brill.com/bki Three Eras of Indonesian Arts Diplomacy Matthew Isaac Cohen University of London [email protected] Abstract Sukarno took a personal interest in using the arts for presenting Indonesia in a pos- itive light. He oversaw cultural missions abroad and produced ‘cultural events’ that showed off his grace and charisma on the dance floor to overseas guests. While Soe- harto showed little interest in the arts, new modes of arts diplomacy flourished dur- ing the New Order—scholarships for foreigners to study arts, artists in residence at Indonesian embassies, large-scale festivals aiming to facilitate artistic exchange and encourage foreign investments, to name but a few. In Indonesia today, arts dip- lomacy is represented by its own sub-directorate in the Ministry of Education and Culture. Indonesia is promoting itself through collaborations between Indonesian gov- ernmental agencies and professional, international producing bodies, galleries, and festivals. Cultural Houses are being built in key cities abroad, along with a nation- wide platform for international festivals, Indonesiana. ‘Indonesianists’, including for- eign academics and students of the arts, are being recruited to promote Indonesia abroad.
