Penelitian telah menemukan tiga varian Melayu di kawasan ini, iaitu: (1) Dialek Melayu Sarawak (DMS); (2) Dialek Melayu Brunei (DMB); dan, (3) Bahasa Melayu Baram (BMB). Dari segi ciri linguistik, DMS di Lembah Baram dikenalpasti sama seperti golongan DMS lain di Sarawak, misalnya DMS Rejang, Saribas dan Kuching. DMB pula adalah kategori Subdialek Melayu Brunei yang memperlihatkan sistem tiga vokal. Makalah ini turut mengulas kajian Needham (1958) tentang BMB. Bahasa ini bersifat bahasa Pasar dan digunakan oleh suku-suku bumiputera bukan penutur dialek Melayu di sekitar Lembah Baram.

Three Malay dialects have been revealed in this area, namely (1) the Sarawak Malay Dialect (SMD) (2) Brunei Malay Dialect (BMD); and (3) Baram Malay (BM). Linguistically, the SMD in Baram river basin is identified as a sub- variant of SMD in Sarawak (similar to the Rejang, Saribas and Kuching dialect). The SMD, which only consists of three vowels, is categorized as the sub dialect of Brunei Malay. This paper also described the BM studied by Needham (1958). In brief, BM is a kind of Bazaar Malay which is widely spoken by the non-Malay tribes in Baram river basin Key words: Malay dialect, Brunei Malay dialect, Baram Malay, Baram basin PENGENALAN Di Sarawak, persebaran dialek-dialek Melayu agak menarik, iaitu berdasarkan “sistem sungai”2.

  • Kalimantan Barat, Indonesia - Sarawak, Malaysia “Head to Head”
    Borderlands and Tourism Development in Kalimantan Island: Kalimantan Barat, Indonesia - Sarawak, Malaysia “Head to Head” Syaiful Muazir Department of Architecture, Tanjungpura University, Pontianak, Indonesia [email protected] Horng-Chang Hsieh Department of Urban Planning, National Cheng Kung University, Tainan, Taiwan [email protected] As part of the regions that share lands and boundaries, Sarawak-Malaysia and Kalimantan Barat- Indonesia have respective characteristics in the borderlands treatment. This paper aims to explore and compare the border areas between two nations, ranging from the borderlands profiles, (tourism) development and planning, and their opportunities. Besides, this paper also wants to highlight tourism development as one of the strategies. This paper uses documentary research to seek “text and context” by narratively describing and compiling the documents. From the discussion, it can be seen that both regions have different characteristics of conditions and problems. For tourism development, different approaches are also “colored” with timing, momentum, and priorities; as influenced and supported by the national plans. Tourism in the borderlands is the impetus in which each regions has already been aware of this potential because of the traction of informal flow, accessibility, supply, and demand. Furthermore, we argue that if tourism has exist at the first place, in the future, by its backward linkages, it will encourage more physical and economic development and cooperation between nations.

  • Kenyah-Badeng in Bakun Resettlement Malaysia
    Development and displacement: Kenyah-Badeng in Bakun Resettlement Malaysia Inaugural-Dissertation zur Erlangung der Doktorwürde der Philosophischen Fakultät der Rheinischen Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität zu Bonn vorgelegt von WELYNE JEFFREY JEHOM aus Sarawak, Malaysia Bonn 2008 Gedruckt mit Genehmigung der Philosophischen Fakultät der Rheinischen Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität Bonn Zusammensetzung der Prüfungskommission: Prof. Dr. Stephan Conermann (Vorsitzender) Prof. Dr. Solvay Gerke (Betreuerin und Gutachterin) Prof. Dr. Hans-Dieter Evers (Gutachter) Prof. Dr. Werner Gephart (weiteres prüfungsberechtigtes Mitglied) Tag der mündlichen Prüfung: 26.06.2008 ZUSAMMENFASSUNG Im Zentrum dieser Forschungsarbeit steht die Umsiedlung der indigenen Einwohner vom Stamme der Kenyah-Badeng aus dem Dorf Long Geng in die neue Siedlung Sg. Asap in Sarawak, Malaysia. Grund für die Umsiedlung war der Bau eines Staudamms, des Bakun Hydro-electric Projektes (BHEP). Neben den Kenyah-Badeng, wurden weitere 16 Dörfer in der neuen Siedlung angesiedelt. Die Umsiedlung begann 1998 und bereits im darauffolgenden Jahr waren die neuen Langhäuser in Sg. Asap vollständig bewohnt. I. Hintergrund Umsiedlungen als Folge von Bauprojekten oder Infrastrukturmaßnahmen sind keine Seltenheit. In diesem Zusammenhang wird oft argumentiert, dass solche Projekte Arbeitsplätze für die lokale Bevölkerung schaffen und die Entwicklung fördern. Andererseits vertreibt ein solche Projekt die vor Ort lebenden Menschen von ihrer Heimstatt und ihrem traditionellen Lebensunterhalt. Im Kern der vorliegenden Studie steht der Aspekt der Zwangsumsiedlung: die Dorfbewohner von Long Geng siedelten sich ausschließlich wegen des Baus des Bakun Wasserkraftwerks in Sg. Asap an.
