  • Capital Town
    Capital town Dorkas waits in front of her house in Lawonda for the small buss that col- lects travellers to Waikabubak. It is just after sunrise. She wants to go to town to visit the hospital. She has been feeling very tired during the last several months with fevers every two weeks, and the nurse in the village clinic had not given her a diagnosis and the right medicine. An older woman joins Dorkas in the buss; she is going to see her daughter in town. Two young girls get on board. They have attended their uncle’s funeral in the village, and now they have to hurry back because they only had permission to be absent from secondary school for three days. At the next corner, a middle-aged man car- rying a small pig steps in. He desperately needs money to pay school fees for his son. In town he will get a better price for the pig than here in the village. Descending to Anakalang the road is rather bumpy. The surface had been rehabilitated last year, but there are already large holes in the middle of the road. People blame the contractor, who surely used the cheapest materials and put the rest of the money in his own pocket. The driver puts a new tape in the recorder and cheerful Christian pop music provides enjoyment for the passengers. Waikabubak is the capital town of West Sumba. In 2002 it had 23,000 inhabitants, which is only about 6 per cent of the total population of this District.

Background: In Indonesia, malaria incidence is at a high rate despite maximum preventive efforts. Therefore, this study aims to determine the possibility of a Plasmodium reservoir among domestic animals in malaria-endemic areas. Methods: Animal blood was collected using EDTA tubes, then smeared and stained with Giemsa for Plasmodium microscopic identification. About 10 µl of blood was dropped on to a filter paper to capture Plasmodium DNA. Nested PCR was used for parasite molecular detection, while Plasmodium species were identified using the sequenced DNA. Results: A total of 208 and 62 animal blood samples were collected from Gaura village, West Sumba and Fakfak village, West Papua, Indonesia respectively.

In order to reach this target, the utilization of liquid bio-fuels and biomass is crucial. From earlier studies it was concluded that use of bio-energy would play an important role in replacing fossil fuel in ‘back up and spinning reserve’ diesel generators that constitute an essential part of the RE power systems on the island.

In malaria endemic areas, the largest proportion of malaria is asymptomatic malaria. Most people with asymptomatic malaria are not diagnosed and do not receive therapy. Asymptomatic malaria sufferers carry gametocytes which play an important role in the transmission of malaria, this situation will result in carrier sufferers or malaria sufferers without clinical symptoms (asymptomatic) at any time can transmit parasites to other people, thus new cases and even extraordinary events (outbreaks) of malaria can occur at unexpected times. This research is an interventional descriptive study with the aim of detecting the presence of asymptomatic malaria in the people of Nun Kurus Village, Kupang Regency, East Nusa Tenggara through the mass blood survey (MBS) work program from Naibonat Public Health Centre, Kupang Regency, and East Nusa Tenggara. The sample in this study was obtained using a total sampling method, namely, all subjects who participated in the MBS activity who were more than 5 years old, with the total of 68 people.

  • Top-Down Historical Phonology of Rote-Meto1
    Journal of the Southeast Asian Linguistics Society JSEALS Vol. 11.1 (2018): 63-90 ISSN: 1836-6821, DOI: http://hdl.handle.net/10524/52421 University of Hawaiʼi Press TOP-DOWN HISTORICAL PHONOLOGY OF ROTE-METO1 Owen Edwards Leiden University [email protected] Abstract This paper examines the historical phonology of the Rote-Meto languages through a top-down perspective. It describes the sound changes which have taken place between Proto-Malayo- Polynesian and the present-day languages. This reveals a number of shared innovations between Meto and the languages of west Rote, as well as changes shared by the other languages of Rote. Thus, a West Rote-Meto subgroup is identified, as well as a Nuclear Rote subgroup. Within Austronesian, there are phonological innovations shared between Rote-Meto and a number of languages of Timor and surrounding islands. This provides evidence for a Timor-Wetar-Babar subgroup, though this group does not include all languages of Timor. Keywords: historical phonology, subgrouping, Timor, Austronesian ISO 639-3 codes: bpz, row, dnk, llg, rgu, twu, txq, aaz, aoz, bkx 1 Introduction In this paper, I provide a detailed account of the phonological history of the Rote-Meto languages taking a top- down perspective. I compare pre-existing Proto-Malayo-Polynesian (PMP) reconstructions with their reflexes in the Rote-Meto languages and identify the sound changes that have occurred. This reveals six sound changes which are shared by Dela-Oenale and Dengka in western Rote and Meto on the Timor mainland. 1) merger of *d with a number of instances of *j to Proto-West Rote-Meto **r 2) initial *k > h in a number of forms 3) loss of *k word medially after *a 4) initial *b > f in a dozen forms where other Rote languages retain *b = b 5) *ə > a in final syllables 6) partially unconditioned split of *a > a~e in final open syllables These sound changes provide evidence for a West Rote-Meto subgroup.

NIHON SUIDO CONSULTANTS CO., LTD. SSS J R 02-102 Exchange Rate as of the end of October 2001 US$1 = JP¥121.92 = Rp.10,435 PREFACE In response to a request from the Government of the Republic of Indonesia, the Government of Japan decided to conduct the Study on Rural Water Supply Project in Nusa Tenggara Barat and Nusa Tenggara Timur and entrusted the study to the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA). JICA selected and dispatched a study team headed by Mr. Masato FUJINAMI of Nippon Koei Co., Ltd. (and consists of Nippon Koei Co., Ltd. and Nihon Suido Consultants Co., Ltd) to the Republic of Indonesia, two times between March 2001 and March 2002. In addition, JICA set up an advisory committee headed by Mr.Yoshiki OMURA, Senior Advisor of JICA between February 2001 and May 2002, which examined the study from specialist and technical points of view. The team held discussions with the officials concerned of the Government of the Republic of Indonesia and relevant personnel, and conducted field surveys at the study area. Upon returning to Japan, the team conducted further studies and prepared this final report. I hope that this report will contribute to the promotion of this project and to the enhancement of friendly relationship between our two countries. Finally, I wish to express my sincere appreciation to the officials concerned of the Government of the Republic of Indonesia for their close cooperation extended to the Team.

Marapu adherents experience hegemony including state discrimination and the spread of religion by the church elite. This study aims to reveal the hegemony process experienced and the survive strategies and struggles of Marapu adherents. Data were analyzed using hegemony theory and practice with qualitative research methods. The results showed Marapu adherents experience state hegemony in the aspect of their religious legality. This condition was used by church elite to spread their religion. The people of Tarung Village accept Christian/Catholicism, but still maintain the Marapu ideology as their religion, so that the reality that occurs in the local community is the practice of religious dualism as strategy of survive and negotiation. The struggle of Marapu followers continues after the Decision of Constitutional Court Number 97/PUU-XIV/2016 by trying to obtain a determination as Marapu customary law community. Keywords: Hegemony, Survive Strategy, Struggle, Marapu, Indigenous Religion INTRODUCTION The state is a tool of elite power that has an ideological interest in perpetuating agreements between subordinates and suppressing efforts to liberate the lower classes against upper class positions (Santoso et al., 2015: 82).
