It protects objects with historical, scientific and cultural value. This law was updated in the Law No. 11/2010 on Cagar Budaya. However, as government’s concerns only focus on protecting monuments, scholars, heritage organisations and local communities started to question the government’s vision on heritage conservation. In 2003, the Badan Pelestarian Pusaka Indonesia (BPPI) or Indonesian Heritage Trust, an umbrella organisation of heritage organisations published the “Indonesia Charter for Heritage Conservation”. Not only great architecture or monuments, but also the heritage of the community or “folk heritage” is a legacy that needs to be conserved. Local practices should expect to be appreciated as much as the authenticity of fabric and form of built heritage. Even so, there is still no satisfactory method of heritage conservation in Indonesia. The numbers of listed heritage items in urban area increases, but not many of them are well maintained. As decentralisation policy takes place, cultural heritage is also an issue in the management of built environment of Indonesian cities. In 2008, heritage organisations introduced an idea of heritage city (kota pusaka) management. The idea was adopted and developed in 2012 in a programme called Heritage City Management and Conservation Programme (P3KP) ‐ a collaborative programme between BPPI and the Spatial Planning Agency, from the Ministry of Public Work. This paper focuses on how heritage organisations and the government develop their conservation approach about heritage city. My observations are grounded on projects and issues related to the Heritage City Programme. Through observation of the development of Kota Pusaka, this paper intends to show how heritage organisations create a discussion arena on the value of heritage in urban development. It intends to ask what a heritage city is by discussing international norms of cultural heritage and local practices.

The Genesis of Kota Pusaka Heritage conservation is endorsed by Law No. 11/2010 on Cagar Budaya (Cultural Heritage). The law is a revised version of the Law No. 5/1992 on Benda Cagar Budaya (Cultural Property). The first legislation about the protection of cultural heritage was Monumenten Ordonnantie introduced in Conference draft. Please consult the author when citing. 4 1931 by the Dutch Government. These legislations share a similar trait: they exist to protect all objects of over fifty years old. According to the law No. 11/2010, cultural heritage includes objects, buildings, structures, sites and areas (“Benda Cagar Budaya, Bangunan Cagar Budaya, Struktur Cagar Budaya, Situs Cagar Budaya dan Kawasan Cagar Budaya”) and also cultural landscape (lansekap budaya) from various levels of significance. Local government is encouraged to register their heritage. The number of categories and the approach was modified as the previous Law only considered objects and buildings with cultural and historical value as cultural heritage. Besides that, the implementation of the old law was centralized in the hand of the Ministry of Education and Culture. Each provinces and cities/regencies also have their agency. The legislation shows little guidance on how the protection and development should

  • Inter-Island Mobility and Social Change in Tidore Kepulauan City, North Maluku

Perintis Kemerdekaan KM.10, Tamalanrea Indah, Kec. Tamalanrea, Kota Makassar–Kode Pos: 90245 E-mail: [email protected],[email protected],[email protected] Abstract. This research uses a qualitative approach to explore inter-Island mobility and social change in Tidore Island, North Maluku. Data obtained from observations and interviews show that social change in Tidore occurred due to the dynamic factors of cross-island population mobility in recent years. Data were divided into groups of those who are working semi-permanently and those who are commuting to work (commuters). The main factors triggering inter-island population interactions in Tidore City are the need for labor supply, basic commodities in the food and logistic sector, as well as support services from several groups. Conversely, this town is the center of government services with labor suppliers in the formal sector (government) and service economy. It also depends on certain commodities that can only be supplied from the surrounding Island (Halmahera). The research analysis shows that infrastructure (transportation) availability contributes to the intention of local government and the community to create new economic centers in the form of regional commodity markets and additional ports to support population mobility as active mediators for the sustainability of socio-economic development in this region.

A taxonomic revision of Araceae tribe Potheae (Pothos, Pothoidium and Pedicellarum) for Malesia, Australia and the tropical Western Pacific. Telopea 9(3): 449–571. A regional revision of the three genera comprising tribe Potheae (Araceae: Pothoideae) is presented, largely as a precursor to the account for Flora Malesiana; 46 species are recognized (Pothos 44, Pothoidium 1, Pedicellarum 1) of which three Pothos (P. laurifolius, P. oliganthus and P. volans) are newly described, one (P. longus) is treated as insufficiently known and two (P. sanderianus, P. nitens) are treated as doubtful. Pothos latifolius L. is excluded from Araceae [= Piper sp.]. The following new synonymies are proposed: Pothos longipedunculatus Ridl. non Engl. = P. brevivaginatus; P. acuminatissimus = P. dolichophyllus; P. borneensis = P. insignis; P. scandens var. javanicus, P. macrophyllus and P. vrieseanus = P. junghuhnii; P. rumphii = P. tener; P. lorispathus = P. leptostachyus; P. kinabaluensis = P. longivaginatus; P. merrillii and P. ovatifolius var. simalurensis = P. ovatifolius; P. sumatranus, P. korthalsianus, P. inaequalis and P. jacobsonii = P. oxyphyllus. Relationships within Pothos and the taxonomic robustness of the satellite genera are discussed.

  • MISC. HERITAGE NEWS –March to July 2017
    MISC. HERITAGE NEWS –March to July 2017 What did we spot on the Sarawak and regional heritage scene in the last five months? SARAWAK Land clearing observed early March just uphill from the Bongkissam archaeological site, Santubong, raised alarm in the heritage-sensitive community because of the known archaeological potential of the area (for example, uphill from the shrine, partial excavations undertaken in the 1950s-60s at Bukit Maras revealed items related to the Indian Gupta tradition, tentatively dated 6 to 9th century). The land in question is earmarked for an extension of Santubong village. The bulldozing was later halted for a few days for Sarawak Museum archaeologists to undertake a rapid surface assessment, conclusion of which was that “there was no (…) artefact or any archaeological remains found on the SPK site” (Borneo Post). Greenlight was subsequently given by the Sarawak authorities to get on with the works. There were talks of relocating the shrine and, in the process, it appeared that the Bongkissam site had actually never been gazetted as a heritage site. In an e-statement, the Sarawak Heritage Society mentioned that it remained interrogative and called for due diligences rules in preventive archaeology on development sites for which there are presumptions of historical remains. Dr Charles Leh, Deputy Director of the Sarawak Museum Department mentioned an objective to make the Santubong Archaeological Park a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2020.

  • INTRODUCTION Prince Nuku of Tidore Is Recognized As One Of
    INTRODUCTION Prince Nuku of Tidore is recognized as one of the national heroes (pahlawan nasional) of Indonesia. He was the leader of a successful rebel- lion against the Dutch East India Company (Verenigde Oost-Indische Compagnie, VOC) and its indigenous allies which lasted for more than twenty years. Born as a Tidoran prince between 1725 and 1735, he passed away as the Sultan of Tidore in 1805.1 In 1780 he fled from Tidore seek- ing refuge in East Seram, Halmahera, and the Raja Ampat from where he launched the rebellion. In 1797 he returned to Tidore with his allied forces and conquered the Sultanates of both Bacan and Tidore. During his exile, Nuku had to fight the forces of the three VOC Governments in Maluku: Ternate, Ambon, and Banda.2 Besides possessing better weapon- ry and equipment, the VOC could also mobilize its indigenous subjects from places such as Ambon and Ternate as troops. In addition, the VOC often dispatched support forces such as ships, weaponry, and soldiers to Maluku from Batavia. In 1801, in close collaboration with the English, Nuku managed to defeat the VOC in Ternate and its indigenous ally, the Ternate Sultanate. Prince Nuku and his Tidoran adherents depended to a large extent on the support they received from various groups of Malukans and Papuans and the assistance of the English. It is intriguing to see what strategies he employed to maintain support among the Tidorans at home, his adher- ents in the periphery of Tidore, and even the English. Geographical and historical setting In the early sixteenth century, Maluku—known as the Spice Islands— became the target of European traders who were competing to obtain cloves and nutmegs.

Under the so called Perak Amanjaya Development Plan, some of the things that we have tried to do are the same things that I believe many others here are concerned about: first, balanced development and economic distribution between the urban and rural areas by focusing on developing small towns; second, poverty eradication regardless of race or religion so that no one remains on the fringes of society or is left behind economically; and, third, youth empowerment. Under the first one, the state identifies viable small- and medium-size companies which can operate from small towns. These companies are to be working closely with the state government to boost the economy of the respective areas.
