  • The Poor Legacy of Sumatra
    CHAPTER IX The poor legacy of Sumatra The Capuchin friar Anthonius Brevoort opens his 1993 dissertation on the first decade of the Capuchin mission in Sumatra (1911-1923) with a chapter on the previous Catholic presence in Sumatra. The disputed Christian community of Fansur or Baros is mentioned as recorded by Saleh al-Armini around 1150-1171. Franciscans in Aceh who were the first martyrs around 1642 are mentioned, as well as the mission in Bengkulu in the early 1700s, when some 300 Catholics were counted. But after that time, only decline is recorded for the history of Catholicism in Sumatra. The nineteenth century did not bring much growth either. An earlier colleague of Brevoort, the Capuchin priest Gentilis Aster, thus started his history of the mission with the sad title De magere boedel, the poor legacy. ‘Catholics were late, had no proper strategy, and did not concentrate in their work on the vast island of Sumatra’ (Brevoort 1993, Aster 1961).1 The cultural, economic, and religious pattern of Sumatra around 1900 was much more diverse than that of any of the other large islands, Java, Kalimantan, Sulawesi, and perhaps even Papua. The diversity was not only evident among the inland regions, the people living in the mountains of the Bukit Barisan, and the inland tribes of Batak, Gayo, Minangkabau, Jambi, Lampung. There were and still are great differences among the coastal re- gions as well: the Malay sultanates of the east coast, Java-oriented Palembang, the proud and independent Aceh, just to mention a few of the important cultures.

This study is initiated by measuring horizontal to vertical spectral ratio (H/V) to sites in Bengkulu City using microtremor. The inversion analysis is performed to generate shear wave velocity profile. Hundreds of sites are investigated in this study. The results show that observed H/V is consistent with the theoretical H/V. National Earthquake Hazard Reduction Program code is adopted to classify the site class. The results also exhibit that Bengkulu City is dominated by Site Classes C and D. In general, this study could lead local government to consider seismic hazard mitigation for spatial plan.

  • +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ High Economic Growth: Will Ensuring Inclusive Growth?
    Journal of Reseacrh in Business, Economics, and Education Volume 2 E-ISSN 2686-6056 Issue 1 February Edition 2020 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ High Economic Growth: Will Ensuring Inclusive Growth? Ahmad Soleh1*, Ketut Sukiyono2, and Ridwan Nurazi2 1Dehasen Bengkulu University, Bengkulu, Indonesia, [email protected]* 2Bengkulu University, Bengkulu, Indonesia Abstract Inclusive growth (IG) measures the benefits of economic growth for people's welfare. Several approaches have been developed in measuring inclusive growth. This study aims to measure inclusive growth using the poverty approach (IGp). This research was conducted in Jambi province and Kepulauan Riau province which is the region with the highest average economic growth on the island of Sumatera in the period 2001-2016. The method of approach used in this study is descriptive analysis. The technique of collecting data uses library research. Poverty-Equivalent Growth Rate (PEGR) was developed in the measurement of inclusive growth. The results of the study show that high economic growth does not guarantee the achievement of inclusive growth. This phenomenon is indicated by the average incremental growth coefficient (IGp) of Jambi province of 0.038 lower than the average coefficient of economic growth (Ĝg) of 0.060. The same condition occurs in the province of Riau Islands, the average inclusive growth coefficient (IGp) is 0.020 lower than the average coefficient of economic growth (Ĝg) of 0.062. This indicates that high economic growth has not been distributed evenly and the benefits of face economic growth are accepted by non-poor people. Some government policies and programs are expected to be directed towards efforts to reduce poverty, so that the benefits of economic growth are truly accepted by the poor.

All provinces experienced an increase in the number of cases compared to the previous week; 15 provinces experienced an increase of 50% or more. More cases mean more hospitalizations, further stretching health workers and health systems, and increasing the risk of death. There is an urgent need to suppress COVID-19 transmission focusing on strict implementation of public health and social measures, including movement restrictions. The existing vaccination drive also needs to be strengthened, mainly focusing on improving the coverage among older and high-risk populations who are at an increased risk of severe disease and death.

    Jeroen Touwen. Extremes in the Archipelago: Trade and Economic Development in the Outer Islands of Indonesia, 1900-1942. Leiden: KITLV Press, 2001. 376 pp. Peter Keppy Written by an economic historian affiliated with the University of Leiden, Extremes in the Archipelago is a history of trends in the economic development of the so-called Outer Islands of Indonesia in the late colonial period. The central themes are the export trade and the economic integration of the islands outside Java within the world economy, and the differential patterns of economic development. Touwen's main argument is that the development of a versatile indigenous export production in the islands outside Java was a positive development. It led to higher incomes, better access to medical services and education, increasing human dignity, and increasing freedom of choice, (p. 7) A key concept in his study is "economic dynamism," which refers to a situation in which the profit-oriented actors quickly and flexibly adapt to changing economic conditions. The first chapter resembles an introductory textbook on economic theory. Touwen's theoretical position is eclectic, drawing from, among others, Hla Myint's surplus-for-vent theory, Julius Boeke's dualism thesis, and Albert Hirschman's linkage concept. Myint's surplus-for-vent concept is used to explain that Chinese and indigenous Indonesian entrepreneurs generated a surplus production of cash crops that was sold in overseas markets. While rejecting Boeke's assumptions about a stagnant indigenous economy, Touwen does acknowledge the benefit of the analytical use of the term "dualism" to differentiate between European and Asian business activity.

Other than these wordlists, no documentation of the history, classification or sociolinguistics of this group was extant. In this study, brief fieldwork and resultant analysis are presented on the Nasal language group. The main conclusions are that Nasal is indeed a distinct language with a preliminary classification of isolate within Malayo- Polynesian. In spite of its small speaker population compared to its neighbors, it improbably remains sociolinguistically vital. Dalam konteks survei identifikasi bahasa di Sumatera, Indonesia, digali kembali dua daftar kata yang sudah diterbitkan untuk sebuah ragam wicara yang diidentifikasi sebagai 'Nasal.'

Wurm and Hattori (1981, 1983) distinguish just under 500 languages within the borders of Indonesia, but the information on which their findings are based is heterogeneous, and for some areas nearly nonexistent. The criteria they use to distinguish dialects from languages are not always explicit and in some respects problematic. Particularly for varieties of Malay that are spoken in pockets throughout eastern Indonesia and in discontinuous chains of dialects throughout Sumatra, mainland Malaysia and Kalimantan, it is difficult to ascertain whether they represent different languages, and if so, to establish their boundaries. If different criteria than those of Wurm and Hattori are used for defining a language, the number of languages may increase dramatically.1 Whereas Wurm and Hattori (1983:map 40) classify Lamaholot as one language, spoken in eastern Flores and on the islands east of Flores, Keraf (1978:299) concludes on lexicostatistical grounds that the 33 varieties of Lamaholot he investigated (he did not include the Lamaholot pockets on the islands of Pantar and Alor; see also Stokhof 1975:8-10, 43-4) should be classified as 17 different languages.
