The Last of the Rampasasa Pygmy

It was already late at night when Tempo arrived at Martinus's residence in Flores Island community of Rampasasa. Under the dim light of a solar-powered LED lamp, Petrus Antas, a tua tenoa Manggarai vernacular for a customary leaderexplained the poor living conditions of the indigenous Rampasasa pygmies. He sat surrounded by hamlet residents.

Having no ID cards, the residents do not have access to government aid programs like the People's Health Guarantee, or People's Temporary Direct Aid (BLSM). The hamlet is not reachable by public vehicles. The state electricity company PLN has promised to link the community to the electricity grid by 2014 but a year later, "nothing has happened," said Martinus as he pulled down the lamp cord to make the light brighter. But due to the many hours of cloudy skies the February day that Tempo visited, little solar energy was stored, and therefore the lamps dimmed again. Antas is the father of Rampasasa hamlet head, Martinus.

Hygiene and Good Health

October 15 is International Hand-Washing Day, an event that is commemorated in Indonesia, particularly where the government is implementing sanitation projects. Around 70 million Indonesians reportedly still excrete their bodily waste not in the proper places, shamefully coming in third in the list of countries with such unhygienic habits, after China and India. Such a condition can lead to diarrhea, acute respiratory diseases and malaria. The government has set 2014 as the time when such unhygienic habits are eradicated in Indonesia. In some of the regions, local governments collaborating with NGOs have come up with creative projects to eradicate this unhygienic habit. Tempo English Edition looks at some of these projects in areas of Papua, West Nusa Tenggara, East Nusa Tenggara, South Sulawesi, and Nias.
