Abstract

This study explores religious moderation in the context of interfaith marriage in Indonesia through the case of Shilvia Tan (Muslim) and Ko Muadz (Confucian), who have lived harmoniously for 17 years without religious conversion. The purpose is to analyze how religious moderation is practiced in interfaith households and how this case reflects tensions between state law, religious doctrine, and individual rights. The originality of this research lies in its interdisciplinary perspective that combines legal, religious, and sociological analysis with the lived experience of an interfaith couple, filling a gap in previous studies that largely focused on normative or legal aspects.Using a qualitative approach, the study employs literature review and media analysis of academic works, legal documents, news reports, and social media discussions from 2007 to 2024. Data were thematically analyzed to identify issues such as legal challenges, public perceptions, and representations of religious moderation.Findings show that interfaith marriage reveals structural obstacles in legal recognition and highlights the gap between the state’s discourse of moderation and the lived realities of citizens. The case demonstrates that tolerance and family harmony can be achieved without conversion, but more inclusive legal and social policies are needed to address the needs of Indonesia’s plural society

Abstract

This study examines the importance of multicultural education in Indonesia, a country characterised by rich ethnic, religious, and cultural diversity. With a population of approximately 250 million people and over 300 ethnic groups, as well as 200 languages, this diversity can be both a blessing and a challenge if not managed properly. Multicultural education plays a crucial role in shaping national identity and fostering intercultural understanding and tolerance. However, its implementation faces various challenges, particularly in remote areas such as the Wana tribe in Central Sulawesi. Despite a strong interest in learning, limited access to education and a lack of understanding of multicultural values ​​among the younger generation pose serious problems. The research method used was descriptive, qualitative, and ethnographic, drawing on the researcher's direct experience with the local community. The results indicate that multicultural education is not only crucial for preventing social conflict but also for strengthening unity in diversity. Challenges include disparities in educational facilities and low teacher competency. Therefore, greater government attention and inclusive policies are needed to improve the quality of education and strengthen cultural identity amidst the tide of modernization.
