Abstract

Some Southeast Asian Nations have water rituals. This article explores one of water rituals in Indonesia, namely Balamut. Balamut is one of oral traditions in Banjarmasin performed both for entertaining and healing. This paper aims to relate this tradition to its place, Banjarmasin that often called as a city of thousands river. There is no direct connection between the traditions of balamut and rivers, but there is no balamut hajat (balamut for thanksgiving) and or tatamba (healing) if there is no water. Nevertheless, my observations of some of the rituals of balamut hajat and healing performed by Pak Jamhar Akbar, one of the palamutan in Banjarmasin, indicate that the Banjarese people who conduct this ritual generally lived near the river (Jingah River, Tabuk River, Kalayan River, Kuin River). In the past, the river was certainly the main source of water used in this ritual. Although some Banjarmasin people now get clean water through PDAM (regional water factory), this ritual symbolically shows Banjar beliefs in the magical power of water. When the community heard that there would be a balamut ritual, they came with a bottle in various sizes. The water they carry is not only sourced from the taps, but also the bottled water from a very remote place. The water spread out in the sacred arena is believed to be able to provide various benefits for those who believe in it: curing disease, increasing luck, and so forth. Water rites in general mean a variety of human activities that are routine or repeated use as a medium that is very important and fundamental.

Abstract

The global pandemic crisis that has occurred since 2020 has affected Indonesia's economic growth. Not only is it going through a recession, but Indonesia is also considered slow to deal with Covid-19 domestically. This article attempts to describe how Indonesian diplomacy's dynamics and challenges with ASEAN+3 countries are coping with the economic recession and the mitigation of the Covid-19 pandemic in Indonesia. The data collection techniques that researchers use in this research are literature and documentation studies. Data analysis will also be performed when data is collected—this method raised by research books, writings, articles, and research reports. Besides, the authors also sought data relevant to this study of electronic media with reliable sources. Indonesia faced challenges with its existence in multilateral forums. It puts Indonesia in a tight position between achieving its national interests and fulfilling its international agenda obligations. While Indonesia was seen as the country with the worst handling of Covid-19, Indonesia aggressively pursues diplomacy and cooperation in handling and combating Covid-19. Indonesia's solution in dealing with and overcoming this pandemic's consequence is to partner with external parties, namely China, Japan, and South Korea in ASEAN+3 cooperations. Every country can work together in a condition of dependence and mutual need. In this case, ASEAN is working together to form ASEAN + 3 because it requires the three countries' experience in dealing with and overcoming the Covid-19 pandemic.

Abstract

The study was motivated by the achievement of HDI delivered a second neighbouring province; one of the provinces is older than the other province. The achievement of HDI of the senior provinces is always below the junior province. This research is quantitative descriptive, conducted in 13 districts/cities in South Kalimantan and 14 regencies/cities in Central Kalimantan for the 2010-2018 period. The data used are secondary data obtained from the Central Statistics Agency, analyzed by the panel data regression. The results of the study show that education and health expenditures have significant effects on HDI in South Kalimantan. The variable of health expenditure positively correlated to the HDI, while the education spending variables correlated negatively. The two variables not significantly affect Central Kalimantan. The quality of regional expenditures is what proxies by the flypaper effect phenomenon as the chosen approach. The findings of the research in the two provinces show that there is a phenomenon of the paper effect phenomenon, which means that the regional expenditures in these two provinces are not qualified yet, so the effect has not been felt optimally.

Abstract

This study aimed to explain the factors that cause the uneffective role of Indonesian diaspora in the development of the nation. The issue of diaspora continues to be a concern of Joko Widodo’s first term. However, over time, compared to the diaspora in China or India, the Indonesian diaspora has not played a very maximal role. We conducted a literature study by understanding each source text. The data were analysed using qualitative analysis based on the role theory and the concept of diaspora. This study found three important factors that determine the inhibiting role of the Indonesian diaspora, such as the dual citizenship factor, the understanding of Indonesian society which is still weak on the existence of the diaspora, and the connectivity factor.

Abstract

Southeast Asia's geographical conditions are an area that has a marine ecosystem most diverse in the world. However, there is an increase in the exploitation and practice of Illegal, Unregulated and Unreported (IUU) fishing which is considered troubling and detrimental to the affected region. This study attempts to analyze the regimes' complexity in illegal fishing in Southeast Asia. The research method used a qualitative approach. Primary data we collect documents and official statements issued by the Asia-Pacific Fishery Commission, ASEAN-SEAFDEC organization, FAO, and policy of ASEAN countries through the ministry of maritime and fisheries.  Analysis of the complexity of the three main regimes in IUU complemented by a discussion of these regimes' agendas and similarity policies (overlapping regimes). In dealing with this, countries in the Southeast Asian region are implementing a strategy to keep up with agreed international norms. It has found that 60% of ASEAN member countries adopt the Regional Plan of Action (RPOA). They were shifting the existence of profit-oriented thinking into sustainability-oriented. The regime's complexity illustrates the tumult of an international issue and the whip to increase the country's contribution to the sustainability of a more balanced life by internalizing the international regime's norms.

Abstract

The planned opening of the Meratus Mountain Karst coal mine located in Hulu Sungai Selatan Regency, South Kalimantan Province, Indonesia sparked local NGOs, namely WALHI (Wahana Lingkungan Hidup Indonesia) South of Kalimantan, to oppose the commercialization and exploitation of karst areas. Nevertheless, it is undoubtedly exciting to see the characteristic discourse, mission, methods, capabilities, and patterns of NGO alliances and the specific issues they are fighting. The study aims to look at how WALHI South Kalimantan makes efforts and ways to protect the mountainous karst region of Meratus and what factors influence them to adopt the way. This research approach is qualitative research and is a combination of desk research and field research. Several strategies can be identified as WALHI's instruments in fighting for their interests in the politics of managing the Meratus Karst area, namely: 1) Demonstrations, 2) Seminar/ FGD, and 3) Campaign, and 4) Legal efforts. WALHI, in their actions, did not go alone, especially in the demonstrations they carried out. They carried out their actions on behalf of the South Kalimantan Karst Care Community Alliance (AMPK). WALHI created a flexible and open organizational structure to collaborate with other NGOs who share their goals.

Abstract

Researchers used descriptive qualitative methods and three data collection techniques, namely observation, interviews, documents related to the research, and key informants, including voters, religious leaders, and Damang (traditional leaders). The data processing procedure is to collect data first, then reduce the data, present the data, and draw conclusions. The results of the study show that elite voters choose because of the factors of position, education, work, and religion. It is the sociological approach that voters tend to use. This is due to the fact that voters base their decision on the candidate's figure more than anything else. factors of the community determine their political choices, especially on the religious side. They are more likely to choose based on the similarity of their religion. Voters tend to see the figure of the candidate as being given a gift, even though it may be in the form of money or goods, which is not enough to influence someone's decision to make a choice. Voters' orientation to developing issues, especially socio-political ones, and one's orientation to candidates, as well as choosing self-direction with which alternative is the maximum for him, is a consideration in choosing a candidate.

Abstract

One of the most important parts of an election process is the participation of the community. The purpose of this study is to analyze the level of community participation that did not reach the national target in the 2019 simultaneous general election in Tanah Bumbu district of South Kalimantan province. Public political participation in the general election of members of the Regency / City DPRD in Tanah Bumbu Regency did not reach the national target because the public did not understand the importance of the election by preferring to carry out their economic activities rather than attending invitations to polling stations. The behavior of voters with profit and loss considerations has a great effect on the absence. The next stage requires socialization carried out by candidates from competing parties regarding their vision and mission in building the region.
