Abstract

Studies on local Islam in Indonesia have predominantly focused on Java and other major islands, leaving limited attention to the dynamics of Islamic practice in Eastern Indonesia. This article deals with a religious ritual of Makeang community by examining the Kase Nae Tiang Alif ritual as an expression of syncretic religiosity. The ritual, which is part of a mosque construction procession, merges sacred elements—such as prayers led by a hakim syara (Islamic judge)—with profane performances like the ronggeng togal dance. This ethnographic study was conducted in Ngofabobawa Village, Malifut District, North Maluku Province, between 2016 and 2019, employing participant observation and in-depth interviews with 23 informants of diverse backgrounds. The research findings show that the Kase Nae Tiang Alif ritual reflects the community’s negotiation between Islamic values, local cosmology, and ecological relationships. It serves not only as a religious act, but it also as a mechanism for communal solidarity and cultural continuity. The sacralization of the Tiang Alif (sacred pillar) demonstrates that local religiosity is rooted in symbolic practices that merge the divine and the material worlds. It is argued in this article that the ritual represents a space of negotiation between sacred and profane domains in the formation of local Islamic identity. This negotiation occurs through community participation, sensory expressions, and symbolic performances.

Abstract

As a station dedicated to preserving local Javanese culture, Puspa FM faces challenges in expanding its audience and increasing advertising revenue within a competitive media landscape. This study examines Radio Puspa FM's strategic adaptation in Pacitan, Indonesia, amid digital transformation and cultural commodification. Using a qualitative approach and virtual ethnography, researchers interacted with the station as listeners, community members, and contributors. Seven informants were purposively selected based on their active involvement in Puspa FM's management, cultural programming, and online listener communities. We triangulated in-depth interviews, participant observation, and a focus group discussion as our data collection methods. The findings reveal that Puspa FM utilizes digital platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube to extend its reach and attract advertisers, while participatory engagement sustains its cultural authenticity. It also shows that the station reconfigures its content and business model to enhance engagement and sustainability while maintaining its cultural mission. The study implies that integrating digital innovation with participatory values can serve as a practical model for local cultural media seeking to balance tradition, audience engagement, and financial resilience in the digital era.
