Swinburne & CERES Global 17 Sept – 29 Sept 2018 Swinburne & CERES Global Indonesia Business │ Social Enterprise │ Events │ Marketing │ Sustainable Tourism 17 Sept – 29 Sept 2018 0 The information in this booklet is aimed to prepare you as much as possible for the trip. Please read it carefully. However, please try to nurture a sense of openness and flexibility as plans can change at the last minute and life on the road very much flows on from moment to moment. 1 Who you will be travelling with: CERES Community Environment Park is located on 4.5 hectares of land on the banks of the Merri Creek in Brunswick East, Melbourne. CERES is a place where people come together to share ideas about living well together, and directly participate in meeting their social and material needs in a sustainable way. Through social enterprises, education and training, employment and community engagement, CERES provides the means by which people can build awareness of current local and global issues, and join in the movement for economic, social and environmental sustainability. Since CERES was established in 1982, the efforts of our community have transformed the site. Once a landfill waste site, today CERES is a place of nature and beauty, inhabited by a vibrant and diverse community. We attract around 400,000 visits each year through our onsite education and training programs, our retail plant Nursery, the Organic Market & Grocery and our cafe. CERES continues to provide opportunities for the community to come together in site groups or as volunteers, through community programs and events. We reach out to over 200,000 people through our work in schools across metropolitan Melbourne, and regional and rural Victoria. CERES Fair Food delivers organic food and the sustainable food message across metropolitan Melbourne. CERES also partners with a wide variety of organisations to bring about mutually beneficial outcomes, and reaches across the planet with CERES Global. CERES Global is the international outreach program of CERES aiming to engage with the issues of global equity and the well‐being of all people on the planet and the environments in which they live. We design socio- environmental cross cultural exchanges that go beyond eco-tourism to use a ‘Learning for Sustainability’ method. Through these lived experiences we aim to encourage a more inclusive and sustainable world through building genuine cross cultural friendship and understanding between our local community and the international partners we work with. Our aim is to provide a platform of exchange and learning that is mutually respectful. All CERES Global visits and engagements are designed to educate and engage participants on global cultural and environmental issues by learning about the challenges that our host countries face and visiting local projects that empower local people to create culturally relevant and sustainable change in their communities. We aim to support genuine friendship building between participants and the host communities including ongoing contact, support and sharing that results in capacity building for the local community and a mutual exchange of world changing ideas that are sensitive to local issues. Our approach is Asset Based. So that means rather than problematise, we seek social and environmental solutions to global issues through looking at what communities already have. In this way we aim to break down stereotypes, celebrate diversity, and build cross cultural understanding and honour the biodiversity of all world views. 2 A Note before Travelling with CERES Global Remember, this is not a tour and our facilitators from CERES are not tour guides, but facilitators or enablers – working alongside you to achieve insight and understanding of the communities we visit, and to engage discussion within the group and with community members on social and environmental issues. It is expected that you will show some initiative and make a contribution to the journey, through sharing of your own knowledge and experience, and working within the group to ensure a cohesive and insightful experience is shared by all. Most of all, enjoy this trip and embrace it. FACILITATORS Rose Samson is studying International Development and Agricultural Science with an eye on sustainable food production and thinking she might one day be a researcher. She is passionate about living simply, seeing the unique ways in which people and communities live within and understand the world and loves exploring possible solutions to global and local challenges. Rose did her Permaculture Design Certificate (PDC) at CERES in 2014, travelled with CERES Global to Indonesia in 2015, Samoa in 2016, and then again more recently this year to Indonesia on the Marine Living Oceans trip as part of a CERES Global internship. The first Indo 2015 trip included our first engagement with the CDC Community Development Centre in the small village on Sembalun on the foothills of Mt. Rinjani on Lombok Island. It was that CDC relationship that Rose and CERES Global have made a commitment to developing, to build real friendship and rapport and to connect with the youth-driven community development centre to share ideas in overcoming social and environmental challenges. Rose has also lived and studied on Java and revisited the CDC community on Lombok multiple times independently, and is really looking forward to co-facilitating the September Indo trip and being a part of this exciting Social Cultural Preservation Event in September and introducing you all to the wonderful Sembalun community. Subik Baso is a legend. He’s been a dedicated environmental educator here at CERES for the past 10 years, and has developed an incredible Indonesia cultural education program to share with thousands of young students in Victoria. Subik brings incredible warmth of spirit and an ability to engage with people from all walks of life. Sube graduated the Bachelor of Agriculture where he learned about the application of Green Revolution methods on farming practices in Indonesia. He was also involved in a Composting Project funded by Canadian Government looking in to natural fertilisers in Makassar in South Sulawesi. Sube worked for an Ecotourism company called Operation Wallace, and then he moved to Australia. Living in Australia enhanced Sube’s passion for the environment by working in a native nursery as well as helping several friends re-vegetate a depleted property in to a beautiful native garden. Finally he came to CERES where he learns in the broader context about the environment and social justice whilst still continues with his passion: gardening. Who would have thought that Sube would also be reconnecting with his Indonesian roots as part of this CERES Global and Swinburne Business Indonesia trip! 3 Getting There and Away Arrival and Departure: The trip dates: 17th of September – 29th of Sept. This is the recommended flight: Passport Make sure your passport has at least six months' validity from your planned date of return to Australia. You should also carry copies of a recent passport photo with you in case you need a replacement passport while overseas. If you do not have a passport which matches these requirements, you need to organise this as soon as possible. Visas Australian citizens visiting Indonesia no longer need to pay for a Visa On Arrival, and instead a 30 day Tourist Visa On Arrival will be granted for free.

The archipelago is essentially a chain of volcanic mountains running roughly east to west, crossing the equator. The climate is tropical with two monsoon seasons, wet (November to March) and dry (June to October). Humidity and rainfall are high and in the densely populated areas much land is given over to farming. The more remote islands are still rainforest. Indonesia’s cities are in a constant state of urban evolution, where dense populations, technology and construction live in hectic symbiosis. But most of the archipelago’s territory remains unexplored, concealing a wealth of cultures and a myriad of landscapes. Java – Yogyakarta Yogyakarta is the coolest city in Indonesia, it’s like the Melbourne of Indo. Bumi Langit Institute Bumi Langit is a not-for-profit organisation that manage a learning centre that promote learning and take responsibility to care for the environment through workshops such as Permaculture. They’ve got some awesome accommodation and really nice grounds so we’re staying here for our time in Yogya We may be involved in some local activities such as milking a cow or building a garden bed? Who knows … Here’s a link: http://www.bumilangit.org/ Survive!Garage A community art space that uses art to express their voice on political, environmental and social issues etc. This not-for-profit organisation led by Bayu who works mostly with young artist and community from Indonesia. They also use the office as a space to exhibit, run performances and workshops by their community. Whilst at Survive!Garage, we’ll learn how to do some textile printing and make our t-shirt to take home. We’ll also check out some of the exhibition and events they run and talk about what’s involved in running events and running a social enterprise like this in Yogyakarta. Check out this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bxCUT6rGW1c Kampunghalaman This is the media/film group we’re working with: Established in 2006 as a not-for- profit organisation, these guys focus on and empower youth to understand, recognise and solve the issues around them using media as a tool to voice their opinion either in mainstream or alternative media. They have also established a Media Center Remaja (Young Media Centre) for young people to come, meet, discuss and research issues that are important for them such as environment, agriculture, enterprise, education resources, culture etc.

A., *Mohd Kamarulnizam, A. and *Abubakar, E.H. Cross-border trade between two neighbouring countries reflects socioeconomic ties between border communities. As such, this paper examines the socio-economic development of communities at the border of Entikong (Kalimantan Barat, Indonesia) and Tebedu (Sarawak, Malaysia). Development undertaken by the respective governments, through the Sosek-Malindo platform, reflects to a certain extent, the concept of a Little Brother-Big Brother relationship, in which each intends to provide assistance through development projects that benefit both communities through employment creation and income generation. This can improve their socio-economic level that has been trapped in poverty and underdevelopment. Keywords: Cross border development; Tebedu, Entikong; Sosek Malindo; little brother-big brother I. INTRODUCTION Bilateral relations between two countries can take a win-win situation or a zero sum game in their effort to resolve conflicts. Malaysia-Indonesia bilateral relations often lead to win-win solutions because each believes the cost of conflict would be high due to economic interdependence on each other. In the context of this archipelagic relation, it may reflect the little brother-big brother (LB-BB) relationship since both countries derived from the same family lineage and share the same religion, Malay and Islam respectively. Indonesia is considered as the big brother from the Malaysian perspective since Indonesia achieved independence earlier, has extensive experience in overcoming colonialism, has a widely multicultural heritage, and it is a large country, in terms of geography and population (Kunaseelan, 1996).

    Country Briefing Indonesia INDONESIA Revised July 2009 Table of Contents Geography Political Background Economy Society & Culture Communication Transportation Health Safety & Security Food & Drink Useful Websites Geography Time - Indonesia is +7/8/9 hours GMT based in West/Central/East location. Indonesia is the 16th largest country in the world measured by land area, which measures 1,919,440 square kilometers (741,050 square miles). Indonesia lies between mainland Southeast Asia and Australia in the Indian and Pacific Oceans and is the world’s largest archipelago state. The Indonesian Archipelago consists of about 17,508 islands, of which 6,000 are inhabited. However, the country is comprised of five main islands – Sumatra, Java, Sulawesi, Kalimantan (part of the island of Borneo) and Irian Jaya (the western half of New Guinea) in addition to 30 smaller archipelagos. As a result, the landscape varies from island to island, ranging from high mountains and plateaus to coastal lowlands and alluvial belts. Indonesia shares land borders with Malaysia on the islands of Borneo and Sebatik, Papua New Guinea on the island of New Guinea, and Timor-Leste on the island of Timor. Indonesia also shares borders with Singapore, Malaysia, and the Philippines to the north and Australia to the south across narrow straits of water. The capital, Jakarta, is on Java and is the nation's largest city, followed by Surabaya, Bandung, Medan, and Semarang. The country’s proximity to the equator results in a tropical monsoon climate, with a wet and dry season. The eastern monsoon brings the dry weather from June to September, while the western monsoon causes heavy rainfall from December through March.

    CHAPTER III THE PROBLEM OF GAMELAN EXISTENCE This chapter will discuss about the conflict or the problem of gamelan including the external and internal problem of gamelan A. The External Problems in Gamelan Indonesia national culture consists of liberal philosophy values in Indonesian society and culture that comes from outside and had already absorbed and adapted to the nation's culture. The existence of various Indonesian cultures from language, food, dance, music and several other arts can attract the attention of other countries to know more about the features and uniqueness of Indonesian culture. Some of Indonesia's heritage cultures are wayang, Saman dance, Reog Ponorogo, Kuda Lumping, Pendet dance, keris, plate dance, angklung, Kecak dance, gamelan and many more. Gamelan has several features such as the audio aspects include sound wave, tone color, interval, and scale system. Besides that, the elements also found in the visual elements include construction, ornament, shape, and beauty of materials used. Both characters could drive the international community recognizes that Javanese gamelan is "the most sophisticated music in the world." (Hartono, 2012). Because of this, gamelan often claimed by another country such as Malaysia. As a neighbor with a similar clump with Indonesia, there is no doubt that there will be cultural acculturation between Indonesian and Malaysian. However, it is not about a policy about the acculturation of both countries. However, it is about the recognition of Indonesian culture by Malaysian which then could lead to a fight or feud of both nations (Baswedan, Srihadi, Yusuf, Koban, & AR, 2010, p. 4). Malaysian claim towards Indonesian culture has often done.
