摘要

For a look outside Java, a good place to visit is the island of Sulawesi, in the heart of eastern Indonesia. Sulawesi is nearly as big as the United Kingdom, and yet it makes up only 10% of Indonesia's land area and contains only 7% of its population. And its size is matched by its diversity. It consists of four separate provinces with considerably different levels of education, economic development and therefore gdp per head. Its population, apart from the usual complement of Javanese settlers, includes three dozen or so major ethnic groups. The Minahasans of the north are famous for their singing, the Toraja people of the highlands for their funeral rites, the Bugis and Makassarese of the south for their knowledge of the sea. About 80% of Sulawesi's people are Muslims, but it also has large numbers of animists, Christians, Buddhists, Confucians and Balinese Hindus, not to mention a centuries-old college of transvestite shamans. Sulawesi, in short, is not a bad place to begin trying to understand the astonishing tangle of problems the whole of Indonesia has to cope with.
