Customary law is manifested through the pamali system, traditional environmental zoning, and marriage regulations that function as social control and cultural guidance. A qualitative case study approach was employed using interviews, observations, and documentation. Findings indicate that customary law plays a crucial role in shaping cultural identity, maintaining social harmony, and supporting environmental sustainability. However, modernization, digital technology, and national regulations present significant challenges, especially for younger generations living in a rapidly changing information landscape.
