The 2016 IRCI Experts’ Meeting on the Mapping Project for ICH Safeguarding in the Asia-Pacific Region was held from the 18th to 19th November, 2016, at the Sun Square Sakai, Osaka, Japan. A total of twenty-five ICH experts from fourteen countries within the Asia-Pacific region attended this meeting, including observers from the UNESCO Beijing Office and the Agency for Cultural Affairs, Japan. Based on the insightful discussion of the meeting, I am pleased to publish hereby the proceedings of the meeting with five selected papers that appropriately follow IRCI’s research guidelines and somehow present the concept of the Mapping Project. With the contribution of all participants, especially that of co-chairs Ms Aikawa Noriko-Faure and Ms Janet Blake, the Sakai meeting has brought much fruitful output. I take this occasion to express my sincere thanks to the UNESCO Beijing Office and its Programme Specialist for Culture, Ms Himalchuli Gurung. March 2017 Wataru Iwamoto Director-General International Research Centre for Intangible Cultural Heritage in the Asia-Pacific Region (IRCI) Proceedings of 2016 IRCI Experts Meeting on the Mapping Project for the Safeguarding of 3 Intangible Cultural Heritage in the Asia-Pacific Region Opening Remarks Yasue HAMADA* Good morning everyone. My name is Hamada, and I am here today on behalf of the Agency for Cultural Affairs, Japan. I would cordially like to welcome all participants to the 2016 IRCI Expert Meeting on the Mapping Project for the Safeguarding of ICH in the Asia-Pacific Region. From the beginning of the foundation of IRCI, the Agency for Cultural Affairs, as its primary financial donor, has actively supported and reviewed IRCI’s research activities. We have in particular paid special attention to the Mapping Project. Since current research on the safeguarding of ICH still needs to be developed, the Mapping Project is expected to contribute to further promotion of the Convention for the Safeguarding of Intangible Cultural Heritage. Since 2013, IRCI has been conducting surveys in the Asia-Pacific region with the cooperation of Ms. Noriko Aikawa, one of the chairs of this meeting. At the same time, IRCI has organized expert meetings in Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur, and Bishkek respectively, to discuss and share various subjects regarding the Convention within this region. I would like to take a moment to express my appreciation for all participants’ as well as the organizers’ who contributed to this project. The Agency for Cultural Affairs in Japan expects that the results of the surveys and the outputs of these experts meetings will be published and open to the public in the near future. As we know, the 2003 Convention was created and implemented to support the international framework to safeguard various intangible cultural heritages in danger of disappearing. Research on ICH has been conducted in many disciplines such as cultural anthropology and folklore. However, research on the “safeguarding” of ICH has unfortunately developed neither a network of related experts’ nor an overall understanding on the current state of research trends. I realize that the facilitation and promotion of such research is a significant task. The Mapping Project identifies the current situation of studies on the safeguarding of ICH and the experts involved through investigations, shares that information widely through the expert meetings, * Deputy Director, Office for International Cooperation on Cultural Properties, Traditional Culture Division, Cultural Properties Department, Agency for Cultural Affairs, Japan 4 Proceedings of 2016 IRCI Experts Meeting on the Mapping Project for the Safeguarding of Intangible Cultural Heritage in the Asia-Pacific Region and accumulates that research data as a database. I believe that this work will contribute greatly to UNESCO as well as to regions and countries working to transmit ICH. I learned that, next year will bring a concrete collaboration with a Japanese research institution, and an international conference co-organized by Seijo University, Tokyo. I am told the Mapping Project will enter a new phase. I sincerely hope the project will stimulate further discussions on research related to the safeguarding of ICH in the Asia-Pacific region, and that the new direction will take shape based on its accomplishments these past three years. The safeguarding of ICH is not an easy task. It has been more than ten years since the 2003 Convention was entered into force. Many countries are extremely interested in how to use the Convention and how to safeguard ICH, and I believe research in those topics is most important. In this regard, Japan has been taking initiative in the safeguarding of both tangible and intangible cultural heritage by implementing the Law for the Protection of Cultural Properties, which was created and entered into force in 1950. The Agency for Cultural Affairs will continue to support IRCI based on such experiences. Finally, I would like to conclude my address by expressing my deep gratitude to the National Institutes for Cultural Heritage, UNESCO, and those who have put so much effort into organizing the Expert Meeting. Proceedings of 2016 IRCI Experts Meeting on the Mapping Project for the Safeguarding of 5 Intangible Cultural Heritage in the Asia-Pacific Region Opening Remarks Himalchuli GURUNG* Dear experts, ladies and gentlemen, On behalf of UNESCO, it is my great pleasure to join you here today at the 2016 Experts’ Meeting on the Mapping Project

Adapun cita-cita menulis buku ini, telah lama kami canangkan, sekitar tahun 2005 yang lalu. Namun karena sulitnya mengumpulkan materi-materi yang akan diajangkau, yakni begitu ekstensif dan luasnya bahan yang mesti dicapai, juga materi yang dikaji di bidang kesenian meliputi seni-seni: musik, tari, teater baik yang tradisional. Sementara latar belakang keilmuan kami pun, baik di strata satu dan dua, umumnya adalah terkonsentasi di bidang etnomusikologi dan kajian seni pertunjukan yang juga dengan minat utama musik etnik. Hanya seorang saja yang berlatar belakang akademik antropologi tari. Selain itu, tim kami ini ada dua orang yang berlatar belakang pendidikan strata dua antropologi dan sosiologi. Oleh karenanya latar belakang keilmuan ini, sangat mewarnai apa yang kami tulis dalam buku ini. Adapun materi dalam buku ini memuat tentang konsep apa itu masyarakat, kesenian, dan Indonesia—serta terminologi-terminologi yang berkaitan dengannya seperti: kebudayaan, pranata sosial, dan kelompok sosial.

  • 2019 International Religious Freedom Report
    CHINA (INCLUDES TIBET, XINJIANG, HONG KONG, AND MACAU) 2019 INTERNATIONAL RELIGIOUS FREEDOM REPORT Executive Summary Reports on Hong Kong, Macau, Tibet, and Xinjiang are appended at the end of this report. The constitution, which cites the leadership of the Chinese Communist Party and the guidance of Marxism-Leninism and Mao Zedong Thought, states that citizens have freedom of religious belief but limits protections for religious practice to “normal religious activities” and does not define “normal.” Despite Chairman Xi Jinping’s decree that all members of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) must be “unyielding Marxist atheists,” the government continued to exercise control over religion and restrict the activities and personal freedom of religious adherents that it perceived as threatening state or CCP interests, according to religious groups, nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), and international media reports. The government recognizes five official religions – Buddhism, Taoism, Islam, Protestantism, and Catholicism. Only religious groups belonging to the five state- sanctioned “patriotic religious associations” representing these religions are permitted to register with the government and officially permitted to hold worship services. There continued to be reports of deaths in custody and that the government tortured, physically abused, arrested, detained, sentenced to prison, subjected to forced indoctrination in CCP ideology, or harassed adherents of both registered and unregistered religious groups for activities related to their religious beliefs and practices. There were several reports of individuals committing suicide in detention, or, according to sources, as a result of being threatened and surveilled. In December Pastor Wang Yi was tried in secret and sentenced to nine years in prison by a court in Chengdu, Sichuan Province, in connection to his peaceful advocacy for religious freedom.

According to the findings, it is imperative for any nation to embrace customs, traditions that derive from daily life and education is considered a key tool to achieve the above goal. The research question is to what extent the national curriculum supports such inter- curriculum issues as youth’ knowledge and skills on the traditional customs and what are the factors of its successful implementation. The research framework covers the study of the students’ academic performance in the area of traditional customs by developing test, task, content analysis of the curriculum and the textbook analysis, parents’, teachers’ and schools’ factors as well. Totally 3, 095 students, 17 secondary schools of Ulaanbaatar city and regions covered. The result shows that poor performance of the students’ knowledge, skills and attitude towards tradition is directly connected to the national curriculum, such factors as an identified skill on the traditions [Sig=.000] and devoted time [Sig=000].
