Abstract This research examines the issue of boundary accuracy in community mapping projects in Indonesian and Malaysian Borneo. Many rural communities have adopted spatial information technologies and methods to challenge 'official' maps, and to gain recognition of their customary lands and resources. Concerns have been expressed, however, about potential difficulties and impacts of community mapping, and a key issue is accuracy evaluation. Boundaries, while apparently straightforward on a map, may symbolize many different social meanings and physical manifestations. I examine how both technical and social aspects of boundary accuracy emerge through three key phases of community mapping: field data collection, mapped representations, and applications. Several sources of data were accessed, including journal articles, manuals, technical reports, legal documents and key informant interviews. It was found that several methods were used to map boundaries in the field. Surprisingly, some methods involved the deliberate avoidance of the boundary concept altogether. Boundaries had multiple definitions at the field data collection level, including land use, land marks, and watershed boundaries. In addition, boundaries were often contemporary responses to external pressures. Large scale environmental changes, such as logging, also impacted the memory, negotiation and location of boundaries. The physical map as well as the mapping process was found to have a role not only in representing spatial perceptions of boundaries but also in producing them. In applications of community mapping, several modes of accuracy assessment were discovered, particularly in legal contexts. These include technical issues such as the evaluation of the map products and skills of the facilitators, and social issues such as how property rights are created and how they are demonstrated using maps. I suggest that community mapping is located somewhere in the translation between how the law and local people 'see' and claim property, and conclude that both of these views need to be considered in order to achieve effective levels of accuracy. Dedication Annie ~oyle an d Acknowledgements I would like to thank my supervisor, Nick Blomley, for his crucial insights, friendly support and endless patience. Thank-you also to Nadine Schuurman, especially for her memorable comment that 'interesting things happen at boundaries', and to Doug Aberley for his unique perspectives on mapping and community empowerment.

Thequestion of howand in whatways these contendingforces operatein Sarawakand in Malaysiaas awholeis therefore crucial in aneffort to capture this dynamic.This article examinesthe impactof globalizationon the democra- tization process andother domestic political activities of the indigenouspeoples (IPs)of Sarawak.It shows howthe democratizationprocess canbe anempower- ingone, thus enablingthe actors to managethe effects ofglobalization in their lives. Thecon ict betweenthe IPsandthe state againstthe depletionof the tropical rainforest is manifested in the form of blockadesand unlawful occu- pationof state landby the former as aform of resistance andprotest. Insome situations the federal andstate governmentshave treated this actionas aserious globalissue betweenthe international NGOsandthe Malaysian/Sarawakgovern- ment.In this case globalizationhas affected boththe nation-state andthe IPs in different ways.Globalization has triggered agreater awareness of self-empow- erment anddemocratization among the IPs.

This study uncovers the potential of traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) from the perspective of indigenous communities in Sarawak, Malaysian Borneo, and explores how TEK helps them to observe and respond to local climate change. Data were collected through interviews and field work observations and analysed using thematic analysis based on the TEK framework. The results indicated that these communities have observed a significant increase in temperature, with uncertain weather and seasons. Consequently, drought and wildfires have had a substantial impact on their livelihoods. However, they have responded to this by managing their customary land and resources to ensure food and resource security, which provides a respectable example of the sustainable management of terrestrial and inland ecosystems. The social networks and institutions of indigenous communities enable collective action which strengthens the reciprocal relationships that they rely on when calamity strikes.

However, reports concerning the incidence and spread of cholera in these countries are infrequently made available to the international community. Cholera is endemic in Sarawak, Malaysia. We report here the epidemiologic and demographic data obtained from nine divisions of Sarawak for the ten years from 1994 to 2003 and discuss factors associated with the emergence and spread of cholera and its control. In ten years, 1672 cholera patients were recorded. High incidence of cholera was observed during the unusually strong El Niño years of 1997 to 1998 when a very severe and prolonged drought occurred in Sarawak. Cholera is endemic in the squatter towns and coastal areas especially those along the Sarawak river estuaries.

  • The B(Imipatera Policy Dynamics Ai\D Dilemma: the Orang Ulu Perspectives
    Kajian Malaysia VoL WI, Nos. 1&2, 2003 THE B(IMIPATERA POLICY _ DYNAMICS AI\D DILEMMA: THE ORANG ULU PERSPECTIVES FrancisJ. Lian Human ResourceConsultant Miri, Sarawak THE'ORANG ULU' 'Orang 'Orang Who are the Ulu'? The term Ulu' is not a legal term and no such racial group is listed in the Malaysian constitution. It is a term politically coined to group together 27 very small but ethnically diverse groupsin Sarawakwith a population ranging from less than 300 persons to over 25,000 persons.Together they totalled approximately 150,000 persons (0.04% of Malaysian population in 2000). In the state of Sarawak,they are the fifth largest of the minority groups after the Iban, Chinese, Malay and Bidayuh. The other minority groups are the Melanausand Indians. The Orang Ulus are found largely in the inland areas of Kapit, Bintulu, Miri and Limbang division of Sarawak. Within these divisions each ethnic group is concentrated within a specific geographical location. Unlike other ethnic groups, for example the Iban, the Orang Ulus normally do not move from region to region in rural Sarawak. However, in the last few decadesmany have migrated to urban towns and cities, especially to Lawas, Limbang, Miri, Bintulq*Kuching and even Kuala Lumpur. In some of these towns, especially Miri, they form a significant percentageof urban squatters.As a result a common demographic trend in Orang Ulu longhousesand villages is depopulation as the middle age and younger generationsmove to the urban areas in search for job and education (Lian, 1987). This occurred even among the remote groups suchas the Kelabits which registered a staggering rural-urban migration rate of approximately 68% (Ose & Andrew, 2003).

  • Of Borneo XXXI
    IAS Newsletter Vol 35, No 2 6 of 12 by Peter C. Boyce [email protected] and Wong Sin Yeng Department of Plant Science & Environmental Ecology Faculty of Resource Science & Technology Universiti Malaysia Sarawak 94300 Kota Samarahan, Sarawak Malaysia [email protected] ABSTRACT Piptospatha insignis N.E. Br. has been re-found in the wild in Lawas District, Limbang Division, Sarawak, Malaysian Borneo for the first time since its discovery (at an unspecified North Bornean location) by Frederick Burbidge sometime between 1877 and 1878. A modified species description and photographs of the living plant and reproductions of the original illustrations are presented. Keywords Araceae, Piptospatha, Schismatoglottideae, geology, sandstone, Malaysian Borneo, Sarawak. Introduction Highlighting remarkable aroids known from only single collections Boyce & Wong (2012) drew attention to Piptospatha insignis N.E.Br., the Type species of the genus Piptospatha, not re-found in the wild for over 135 years. It was noted that the geographical imprecision of Burbidge’s collecting site was an impediment to relocating the species in the wild, especially since so many rheophytic aroids are locally endemic, although narrowing down the possible search area could be aided from the literature and herbarium specimen data. It is known, based on notes accompanying the description of P. insignis (Brown 1879), that he (Brown) at the time had another Burbidge collection to hand representing another probable new genus. This plant was Gamogyne (now Piptospatha) burbidgei which Burbidge collected from Bukit Sagan, a mountain on the border with Brunei and that this was received at Kew on 21 February 1878. Figure 1.

In comparing the kinship terminology of Austronesian (AN) languages it is not unusual to find apparent cognates which differ in the presence of a synchronically unanalyzable initial or final segment that has thus far resisted historical explanation, as with Sediq tdma?, but Thao ?d : ma?, 'father'.2 That Thao does not regularly reflect the sources of Sediq t (i.e. PAN *G, *t, *T) as zero is clear from é.g. Thao thd : qi? < *Caqi, 'feces', tü : ru? < *telu, 'three'. Because it is repre- sentative of a large class of facts to be considered below, the preceding example may serve as a paradigm case for all those that follow in sect. 1; that is, in none of these cases is the explanation for such segmental disagreements to be sought in regular phonological change, nor — so far as the published sources indicate — in synchronic morphology. It will be convenient to refer to terms of the type Sediq tdma? as long forms (LF) and to terms of the type Thao ?d : ma? as short forrns (SF). Since LF and SF kinship terms can be reconstructed at an equivalent historical level, the explanation of the segments that distinguish them poses a problem of greater than ordinary interest for systematic recon- struction.
