The incidence of G6PD deficiency in 5 ethnic groups (Manggarai, Bajawa, Nage-Keo, Larantuka, and Palue) on the Flores and Palue Islands was lower than that of another native group, Sikka, or a nonnative group, Riung. Molecular analysis of G6PD variants indicated that 19 cases in Sikka had a frequency distribution of G6PD variants simi- lar to those in our previous studies, while 8 cases in Riung had a different frequency distribution of G6PD variants. On the other hand, from field surveys in another 8 ethnic groups (Timorese, Sumbanese, Savunese, Kendari, Buton, Muna, Minahasa, and Sangirese) on the islands of West Timor, Sumba, Sulawesi, Muna and Bangka, a total of 49 deficient cases were detected. Thirty-nine of these 49 cases had G6PD Vanua Lava (383T>C) of Melanesian origin. In our previous studies, many cases of G6PD Vanua Lava were found on other eastern Indonesian islands. Taken together, these findings may indicate that G6PD Vanua Lava is the most common variant in eastern Indonesian populations, except for Sikka.

The study was conducted to map the existing mariculture activities in SE Sulawesi. Data collection was performed in June 2009. Spatial and attribute data of the existing mariculture were acquired by interviewing fish farmer using open-ended questionnaire and analyzed using ArcGIS 9.x. Key water quality parameters consisted of temperature, dissolved oxygen, pH, salinity, depth, clarity, and turbidity and analyzed using STORET Indeks. Three big clusters of existing mariculture activities are located in Kendari, Muna and Buton areas, collectively serving as both a source of mariculture products and a market destination or transit location. All surveyed locations of existing mariculture activities in SE Sulawesi show relatively optimal water quality conditions. Site capacity and suitability analysis of existing or potential areas of mariculture activities and development have largely not been considered by stakeholders involved in managing coastal areas, resulting in crowded and unmanaged development with multiple overlapping economic activities in some areas.

  • The Netherlands Indies in Aceh, Bali and Buton: Degrees of Resistance and Acceptance of Indirect and Direct Rule
    The Netherlands Indies in Aceh, Bali and Buton: degrees of resistance and acceptance of indirect and direct rule Johannes I. (Hans) Bakker The basic argument that I would like to make is that the notion of ‘resistance’ needs to be tempered by a careful examination of specific historical and sociological details. Interpretation should not be merely an ideological reflex. Yet for many people the study of rebellions against colonialism is extrapolated into a general model of history. But, colonial indirect rule did not always result in rebellion. Indeed, colonial rule sometimes led to degrees of acceptance. I would like to illustrate that idea by mentioning three case study examples: Bali, Aceh, and Buton. Many people around the world have heard of Bali. After the tsunami more people learned about Aceh. But very few people have ever heard of Buton. In this article I would like to briefly mention those three places in Indonesia as examples of communities which can be considered in the context of the debate on resistance to imperialism. Many other places could be considered in terms of resistance and rebellion as well.1 My central thesis is that the Republic of Indonesia as it exists today is a complex secular entity. Because Indonesia is such a complex place any generalizations made about resistance today or in the past must be tempered by a careful acknowledgment of internal differences. Some authors have presented a very black and white picture. For example, in the Indonesia heritage series the brief articles are written by academic scholars, but they frequently provide a one-sided view.2 The various political entities that have existed in the 1 Ken Young, Islamic peasants and the state: the 1908 anti-tax rebellion in West Sumatra (New Haven 1994).

The power relation that happened between punggawa and sawi in globalization era had the potential of arousing the conflict among the groups who have certain interests. The formulation of problem in this research was how are the forms of power relation of punggawa and sawi in fishermen’s activity of Bajo ethnics at Tiworo Archipelago, North Tiworo District, and West Muna Regency. This research aimed at responding the general problems that happened on the fishermen of Bajo ethnics at Tiworo Archipelago, North Tiworo District, and West Muna Regency that is related to the power relation of the groups of Punggawa and of Sawi. Its specific purpose was to respond the problems in the formulation of problem. This research used a theory approach of power relation of Foucault to study the forms of power relation between punggawa (rural government, the entrepreneur of sea product collector or the owner of capital) and the fishermen society of sawi.

  • 9. Forts of the Wakatobi Islands in Southeast Sulawesi 213
    9 Forts of the Wakatobi Islands in Southeast Sulawesi1 Nani Somba Introduction The Wakatobi Islands are part of a larger archipelago known as the Tukang Besi Islands, located in the Flores Sea to the southeast of Buton Island (Figure 1.1 this volume). Wakatobi is an acronym of the four main islands that make up the group, namely Wa (Wangi-Wangi), Ka (Kaledupa), To (Tomia) and Bi (Binongko) (Wikipedia 2020). This name was first used in 1959, when the Wakatobi region was administratively separated from the Buton Regency. The islands contain a rich cultural heritage record, but to date there is no management strategy to protect and enhance the cultural resources of Wakatobi. This study aims to provide an inventory of the forts present on the islands to assist in the development of a management strategy. The methods used include a surface survey, observation of the cultural relics and interviewing residents with knowledge of the issues under investigation. The Wakatobi forts cannot be appreciated in isolation from the kingdom of Buton, which is recognised as one of the key maritime kingdoms instrumental in the acclaimed spice trade from the Maluku Islands during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries (Andaya 1991). The Wakatobi forts had their origins during this period when they were developed as part of Buton’s four buffer zone Barata( pata mplena) system of governance. TheBarata pata mplena included the locations of Kolensusu (based on the Buton mainland), Kaledupa (Wakatobi Islands), Muna and Tiworo (both on Muna Island). This was a multilayered defence system designed to protect the Buton kingdom from foreign, especially European, intervention.

Corresponding author: Rahman, [email protected] Abstract. Generally, the coastal areas and the mainland are social-ecologically interrelated with varying characteristics. This research, therefore, aims to determine the socio-ecological system and its connectivity related to the dynamics of mangrove carbon. Data were obtained through interviews, field observations, and logical framework, with the spidergram and Drive-Pressures-State-Impact-Response (DPSIR) methods used for its analysis. The results showed that the density and carbon stock associated with the degradation of mangrove ecosystems was due to the use of land for infrastructural development especially ponds, settlements, roads and docks. Connectivity between infrastructure on the degradation of mangrove stock and density was in the strong and very strong categories. Its use on cultivated land had strong and negative connectivity to the reduction of carbon and the density of mangroves especially for Bruguiera cylindrica, Bruguiera gymnorhiza and other species. The use of mangroves as tourism land had moderate and positive connectivity to stock and density. Key Words: carbon stock, DPSIR, socio-ecological system, West Muna Regency.

  • Religious’ Traders
    DRAFT ONLY PLEASE DO NOT CITE WITHOUT PERMISSION War of the World-views: The Rise of the ‘Religious’ Traders Blair Palmer Australian National University In the village of Boneoge, in Buton, a ceremony called kaagono liwu1 should be held twice each year, at the changing of the seasons (from west monsoon to east, and vice versa). The kaagono liwu, which translates as ‘the healing of the village’, is held to prevent sickness and misfortune in the village by appeasing the ‘spirits of the land’ (miendo wite). In November 2003, at the beginning of the west monsoon, the ceremony was overdue, and the adat leaders2 were having difficulties organising it. It was the month of Ramadhan, and many people were busy every night with the solat taraweh3. In addition, as one of the adat leaders told me, ‘many think it is contradiction [with Islam]’. In fact, many of the rituals centered on these spirits, including the kaagono liwu, were discontinued in the 1960s because of this perceived contradiction with Islam. Those villagers who felt the ceremonies were necessary eventually began to hold them again in secret, but this time the clash with Ramadhan made it difficult for them to do so. An adat leader explained to me: According to those who are fanatic4 about agama5, [these ceremonies] are bida’a [heresy], or false. But for us, there is adat and there is agama. The ceremonies are not in contradiction with Islam, they’re only assumed to be. We stopped the ceremonies for a while in the past, but many people got sick, so we had to hold them again, albeit in secret6.

    Geography Dialect Of Muna Language Maulid Taembo 1* , Rahman 2, Wa Ode Halfian 3, Zahrani 4 Language and Literature Department of Halu Oleo University, Jl. H.E.A. Mokodompit, Anduonohu, Kendari 1,2,3,4 {[email protected] 1} Abstract , This study discusses the geography dialect of Muna language in Southeast Sulawesi. It was conducted because of both the lack of study about geography dialect and Muna language has interesting dialects to be investigated, in which it is used frequently in three regencies of Southeast Sulawesi. This study discusses (1) the phonemes of Muna language; (2) describing and analyzing phonologocal and lexical variation of Muna; and (3) describing and analyzing the group of Muna based on phonological and lexical isogloss bundles and lexical dialectometry. Since the limited time, the study was done in only several point observations or areas in Muna and Center Buton Regencies, namely Tongkuno and Mawasangka. The data is obtained from interview or participant speaking and scrutinize methods. The instrument comes from 200 lists of Swadesh and 750 lists of Isodore Dyen. In analyzing the data, it uses apportion and equal methods, and then isogloss bundles and dialectometry methods. The results showed there are five fowels and nineteen consonants in muna language. Both dialects in Tongkuno and Mawasangka do not show significant different or lexical variation because they show the muchclosed relationship. The variation just appears on phonological aspects such as phoneme /r/ on Tongkuno is realized to phoneme /h/ on Mawasangka. It thus phonological bundles can show the groups of Tongkuno and Mawasangka as dialects of Muna.
