Likewise, the island of Kalimantan, especially Central Kalimantan, has its own uniqueness when viewed in terms of culture, language and tradition. But in addition to a well-developed and sustainable local culture, the people of Central Kalimantan also provide space for immigrant communities. One example is the immigrant community from the island of Bali who are Balinese and embrace Hinduism. As a migrant community, Balinese Hindus still maintain the culture and traditions of their origin, namely the island of Bali.
