Abstract

The Indigenous People of Ammatoa Kajang in Bulukumba Regency, South Sulawesi, possess a "Passang Ri Kajang". Several of the Kajang tribe's messages are crucial to the preservation of the ecosystem. This village and a rubber plantation enterprise located in the Kajang customary forest have a long history of conflict. The findings demonstrate how Indonesia's indigenous peoples' local knowledge has developed into a potent barrier to preserving and safeguarding the environment. The fort had previously been put to a rigorous test by the demands of modernity and globalization via the clearance of plantation lands owned by the government and the private sector which had taken their traditional or ulayat territory, disguised as "investment permits." The presence of indigenous peoples, whose positions are being squeezed more and more, is brought to light by this scenario.
