In the nineteen nineties I came to Medan as a lecturer in European history at the University of North Sumatra, and the Teacher Training College (Institut Keguruan Ilmu Pendidikan or IKIP). Over the years I spoke to a wide range of people, in the first place Mrs. Lemye Tjong Sze-Yin, daughter of Tjong A Fie, the most prominent Chinese in the history of Medan. After Mrs. Lemye I met two other important persons in Medan who offered me a wealth of information, Mr. Tan Boen Djin and Mr. Hiu Kian Jin. Mrs. Lemye mentioned the name of Kamerlingh Onnes, which paved the way for my book De reis van Harm Kamerlingh Onnes (The voyage of Harm Kamerlingh Onnes) which can be seen as a step in between into this publication about the Chinese of Medan. This book became possible thanks to the support and directions of Gerrit Knaap for which I am very grateful. He has been a very constructive and supportive patron. I also want to mention the support that I received in the past from Heather Sutherland and Leonard Blussé. I like to thank Jan Albert Buiskool, Anthony Reid, Roel van der Veen, Margreet van Till, Rogier Smeele, Tsai Yen Ling, Pauline van Roosmalen, Donna Woodward, David Freeman, Loh Wei Leng, Arief Puyono, Mohamad Fauzi, Alexander Claver, Claudine Salmon, Mona Lohanda, Martine Barwegen, Myra Sidharta, Mary Somers Heidhues, Liong Lai Tjin, Thomas Lindblad, Peter Post and Freek Colombijn who all helped me in one way or another. I like to thank the Tjong A Fie family in Medan and Maximilienne Lemye in Brussels for photo’s, the family of Tjong Yong Hian in Medan, especially Budiharjo Chandra and Rebecca Chandra, as well as Myra Tan in Medan, the Khoe family in Penang and London and the family of Gan Hoat Soei in Almere. The text has been polished by Leopold Finn which is much appreciated. As it has been such a long voyage, so much longer than the one of Harm Kamerlingh Onnes, I have to thank especially Diana, Roderick and Frederick for their endless support and stimulation over the years. Dirk Aedsge Buiskool 13 14 Introduction At the end of colonial times, in 1942, Medan was the capital of the wealthiest and economically most important part of the Netherlands Indies outside Java, whereas in 1890 it had been just a tiny village.

The presence of E.Coli in water proves that the water is contaminated by human and animal feces. This is more important than faeces or feces which also contain other pathogenic enteric microorganisms. E.Coli becomes a pathogen if the number of these bacteria increases or is outside the intestine, one of the human digestive systems. Therefore, E.Coli produces enterotoxins which cause several cases of diarrhea (Brookset al., 2004).E.

  • Unsur Akulturasi Budaya Pada Rumah Tjong a Fie Di Kota Medan
    Unsur Akulturasi Budaya pada Rumah Tjong A Fie di Kota Medan Rudiansyah, Gugun Gunardi, Widyo Nugrahanto Fakultas Ilmu Budaya Universitas Padjadjaran Jalan Ir. Soekarno Km. 21 Jatinangor - Sumedang 45363 ABSTRACT That the Chinese began to immigrate to Indonesia, especially in Medan city was in the early 12nd century. In the meantime they also introduced their religion, art and culture to the local people. ‘The acculturation refl ected on Tjong A Fie’s Residence’ is selected as the title of the thesis with the purpose of assessing and understanding the acculturation that was discovered on the buildings with Chinese style in Medan City. This research was focused on the objects of Tjong A Fie’s residence.This research used John W. Berry’s acculturation theory; while the method that is used is the qualitative descriptive method. An acculturation is a prosess that happens when one group of people with some kind of culture confronts the elements of some other culture. From this comes into being the change of the original cultures, yet these two cultures have not lost the elements of their own cultures. The acculturation can be seen on part of Tjong A Fie’s residence like the gold color that was used dominatedly, the pictures on the cloth and the melaysian special window shapes. The elements of European culture can be seen on the strut, the decorative lamp, the table and the sculptures of the ceiling of Tjong A Fie’s residence. The elements of Chinese culture can be found on the strut of the front gate, the sculptures of lion, the sculptures on the wall, the entrance door as well as the shape of the curving roof that stands for the special structures of house in China.

  • The Globalization of Chinese Food ANTHROPOLOGY of ASIA SERIES Series Editor: Grant Evans, University Ofhong Kong
    The Globalization of Chinese Food ANTHROPOLOGY OF ASIA SERIES Series Editor: Grant Evans, University ofHong Kong Asia today is one ofthe most dynamic regions ofthe world. The previously predominant image of 'timeless peasants' has given way to the image of fast-paced business people, mass consumerism and high-rise urban conglomerations. Yet much discourse remains entrenched in the polarities of 'East vs. West', 'Tradition vs. Change'. This series hopes to provide a forum for anthropological studies which break with such polarities. It will publish titles dealing with cosmopolitanism, cultural identity, representa­ tions, arts and performance. The complexities of urban Asia, its elites, its political rituals, and its families will also be explored.

  • Denys Lombard and Claudine Salmon
    Is l a m a n d C h in e s e n e s s Denys Lombard and Claudine Salmon It is worth pausing for a moment to consider the relationships that were able to exist between the expansion of Islam in the East Indies and the simultaneous formation of "Chinese" communities. These two phenomena are usually presented in opposition to one another and it is pointless here to insist on the numerous conflicting accounts, past and present.* 1 Nevertheless, properly considered, it quickly becomes apparent that this is a question of two parallel developments which had their origins in the urban environment, and which contributed to a large extent to the creation of "middle class" merchants, all driven by the same spirit of enterprise even though they were in lively competition with one another. Rather than insisting once more on the divergences which some would maintain are fundamental—going as far as to assert, against all the evidence, that the Chinese "could not imagine marrying outside their own nation," and that they remain unassimilable—we would like here to draw the reader's attention to a certain number of long-standing facts which allow a reversal of perspective. Chinese Muslims and the Local Urban Mutation of the 14th-15th Centuries No doubt the problem arose along with the first signs of the great urban transformation of the 15th century. The fundamental text is that of the Chinese (Muslim) Ma Huan, who accompanied the famous Admiral Zheng He on his fourth expedition in the South Seas (1413-1415), and reported at the time of their passage through East Java that the population was made up of natives, Muslims (Huihui), as well as Chinese (Tangren) many of whom were Muslims.

The convent, established in 1854 in central Singapore, is now the ‗premier lifestyle destination‘, CHIJMES. I show that the Sisters were early providers of social services and girls‘ education, with an orphanage, women‘s refuge and schools for girls. They survived the turbulent years of the Japanese Occupation of Singapore and adapted to the priorities of the new government after independence, expanding to become the largest cloistered convent in Southeast Asia.

  • Governing New Guinea New
    Governing New Guinea New Guinea Governing An oral history of Papuan administrators, 1950-1990 Governing For the first time, indigenous Papuan administrators share their experiences in governing their country with an inter- national public. They were the brokers of development. After graduating from the School for Indigenous Administrators New Guinea (OSIBA) they served in the Dutch administration until 1962. The period 1962-1969 stands out as turbulent and dangerous, Leontine Visser (Ed) and has in many cases curbed professional careers. The politi- cal and administrative transformations under the Indonesian governance of Irian Jaya/Papua are then recounted, as they remained in active service until retirement in the early 1990s. The book brings together 17 oral histories of the everyday life of Papuan civil servants, including their relationship with superiors and colleagues, the murder of a Dutch administrator, how they translated ‘development’ to the Papuan people, the organisation of the first democratic institutions, and the actual political and economic conditions leading up to the so-called Act of Free Choice. Finally, they share their experiences in the UNTEA and Indonesian government organisation. Leontine Visser is Professor of Development Anthropology at Wageningen University. Her research focuses on governance and natural resources management in eastern Indonesia. Leontine Visser (Ed.)
