Abstract

This study is the most recent exposition of the Malapas tradition of the Dayak Kanayatn tribe in West Kalimantan. Malapas is an act of anticipating the occurrence of Sumpanan because of not having time to eat or drink something that is desired by oneself or offered by others. The purpose of this study was to determine the motives of Dayak Kanayatn students, who are migrants in the city of Malang, East Java, who still maintain the Malapas tradition. This study uses a qualitative method to obtain a rich picture and description of the respondents. Data collection was carried out by distributing an open questionnaire in the form of a Google Forms to Dayak Kanayatn students who are studying and living in the city of Malang. The data analysis of this study used Clifford Geertz’s Thick Description theory. The results of the study show that there are six motives for students of the Dayak Kanayatn tribe, who are migrants in the city of Malang, East Java, to still maintain the Malapas tradition: (1) so as not to be a Sumpanan, (2) as a form of respecting gifts or offers of food and drink from other people, (3) as a form of respecting ancestral traditions, (4) to affirm their identity as Dayak Kanayatn people, (5) to build solidarity, (6) because it has become a habit so that it becomes a spontaneous reaction or reflex. The results of this study indicate that knowledge and awareness of local traditions among the Dayak Kanayatn tribe, who are migrants, is still very strong. This is an important capital for preserving traditions in this era of modernization.

Abstract

This study explores the role of the Majelis Adat Budaya Melayu (MABM) of Singkawang City in preserving the Saprahan tradition, which constitutes an essential element of Malay Sambas cultural identity. MABM Singkawang, established as a traditional institution in 2007, is dedicated to safeguarding and revitalizing Malay customs, values, and cultural expressions in the midst of modernization and multicultural dynamics in Singkawang. The research employed a descriptive qualitative method, with data collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and document analysis involving seven informants representing key cultural stakeholders. Data were analyzed through reduction, presentation, and conclusion drawing to provide a holistic understanding. Findings reveal that MABM carries out three major roles: providing understanding, supervising, and fostering preservation of Saprahan. The role of providing understanding is realized through educational seminars, cultural festivals, and community outreach programs that raise awareness about the values embedded in Saprahan, such as togetherness, mutual respect, and cooperation. The supervisory role is conducted through regular meetings, participation in community events, and direct monitoring to ensure that Saprahan remains aligned with its original cultural values. Meanwhile, fostering efforts are implemented through guidance programs in schools, cultural competitions like Besurong Saprah, and youth engagement activities aimed at transmitting cultural pride to younger generations. These strategies demonstrate MABM"™s commitment to ensuring the sustainability of Saprahan not only as a ritual of communal dining but also as a living tradition that strengthens social bonds, reinforces cultural identity, and contributes to the resilience of Malay heritage in Singkawang. This study highlights the importance of customary institutions as mediators of cultural continuity and provides insights into how traditional practices can be adapted and preserved in a rapidly changing social context.

Abstract

Sukamantri Village in West Java, Indonesia, has a community that is very enthusiastic in developing the Bebegig Sukamantri art. On December 20, 2016, the Sukamantri District community successfully presented a parade of 320 bebegig accompanied by 604 kolotok dancers, which was recorded as the largest number according to the Original Indonesian Record (ORI). In 2018, it was designated as an Intangible Cultural Heritage by the Indonesian Ministry of Education and Culture. The attraction of Bebegig Sukamantri lies in the design of the spooky and very large bebegig mask with forest plant attributes. Bebegig dancers wear clothes made of palm fiber, the crown of the mask is made of flowers and forest leaves. The purpose of this study is to determine the meaning contained in the design of the Bebegig Sukamantri mask, as well as what local wisdom is contained in it. The research method used is an interpretation study of the visual structure and appearance of the mask, through an analysis of similarities in shape and differences in appearance. The results of the study show that the Bebegig Sukamantri Mask is generally made without a prior design process, and consists of three large groups based on the character category and the accompanying attribute signs. The unique appearance of the Bebegig Sukamantri Mask is influenced by the face of Batara Kala with detailed attributes related to three groups of ancient Sundanese society, namely Rama-Resi-Ratu, who have a protective god, called Denawa-Ditya-Rakhasa, as described in Sanghyang Siksa Kanda ng Karesian, in the 15th century AD. The physiognomy of the mask is very interesting, because it consists of various different characters but has a strong and sustainable Sundanese philosophical content.
