| Summary: | This article is an overview of oral tradition in Sambas, Sekadau and Ketapang
in North, Central and South of West Kalimantan, representing three relatively
different cultural regions. Discourse of their identity labeling is based on the
plurality of the Dayak and Malays, who share political powers, despite religious
differences between them. It is their social interactions with other ethnic groups
in West Kalimantan that enrich the cultural and religious plurality in the region |
