One-page report PEOPLE AND PLANTS: SOUTHEAST ASIA TRAINING COURSE REPORT: KHON KAEN UNIVERSITY, THAILAND WWF Project 9Z0556 - Ethnobotany and the sustainable use of plant resources by Gary J. Martin and Agnes Lee Agama Dates: Background: Among the activities of the People and Plants in Southeast Asia, the Certificate Training Course (CTC) in applied ethnobotany was focused on building skills and knowledge in a talented group of researchers and community workers who have at least an undergraduate degree. In an evaluation of the CTC, Danna Leaman suggested that future courses be held within a regional institution committed to ethnobotanical research and training. It was decided that Khon Kaen University would be an excellent choice: its Department of Pharmacognosy and Pharmaceutical Botany, headed by Dr. Chayan Picheansoonthon, has a strong record of ethn obotanical research. In addition, the Department had been seeking someone to design and teach an ethnobotany course that was already part of the curriculum but not yet taught at the University.

One of the resort cabins on Pulau Tiga Island. About Malaysia
SURVIVOR'S ISLAND

While millions watched 16 castaways battle for US $1 million on Survivor Island, few noted the nation host. The island, real name Pulau Tiga, is part of Malaysia, a country which is itself heralding its own survival. Smashed by a recession that devastated East Asia, Malaysia took another hit when vast forest fires darkened the nation's skies for months on end. More recently, the taking of hostages near Malaysia by Filipino bandits also hurt the area's image. But Malaysia, which hangs drug dealers, is fighting back.

1. GENERAL INFORMATION
Malaysia is located in the heart of Southeast Asia. Consisting of 127,000 sq. miles (330,200 sq. km), Malaysia is divided into two main regions: Peninsular Malaysia, which lies just south of Thailand, and East Malaysia, which can be found north of Indonesia on the island of Borneo. These two regions are divided into thirteen states and federal territories. Although East Malaysia occupies the larger portion of Malaysia's total area, it is primarily comprised of undeveloped land and jungles. Malaysia is a land of fascinating sights and attractions. Rich in colour and contrasts, her multi-faceted charm provides intriguing images that leave visitors to the country in awe. The natural warmth of Malaysians is legendary; wherever one goes, the friendliness and hospitality of the people would prove to be a very special experience. Malaysia is paradise. Its sun-drenched beaches, enchanting islands, diverse flora and fauna, forest retreats and magnificent mountains are among the best in this region. Many visitors have discovered Malaysia's other attractions: a shopping haven, a versatile conference venue, an incentive destination, an adventure land and much more.

Weapons in Museums, Galleries and Literature: extract A 19th century weapons collection: extract
Extract from C. Spring's African Arms and Armour
Introduction: Weapons in Museums, Galleries and in Literature
(pp 12 - 14; references given by Spring can be found in the bibliography Weapons cannot on their own be used to explain the complexities of and the reasons for conflict. Nonetheless, it is pertinent to note that anthropologists have only recently begun to be forthcoming on the subject of warfare. As Hallpike (1973) bluntly puts it, warfare is a 'form of behaviour which particularly horrifies intellectuals'. If, as Fukui and Turton (1979) suggest, those intellectuals happen to be anthropologists, their aversion may be compounded by the fact that 'warfare is one of those rare topics of anthropological research, the overwhelming practical significance of which is immediately apparent to the non-anthropologist'. In Africa, the colonial authorities had, to some extent, stamped out or at least suppressed warfare by the time most of the classic ethnographies came to be written. Perhaps the connivance, unwittingly or not, of some early twentieth-century anthropologists in this pacification process may have made the discussion of warfare somewhat distasteful to their immediate successors. As Hallpike points out, such attempts as there were unsuccessfully tried to explain away the sheer irrationality of certain aspects of warfare by forcing each of the large variety of cases to confirm to a simple, restrictive, functionalist model. More recently changes in anthropological theory have produced some stimulating work, for example the collection of essays edited by Fukui and Turton in 1979, but in general the study of traditional warfare in Africa has not received the attention it deserves.

Introduction
(pp 9-19; references given by Spring are fully cited in the bibliography This book is primarily intended as a celebration of African artistry and ingenuity. It also attempts to show the way in which arms and armour are incorporated into the complex material systems which express the structure of non-industrialised societies. The book takes as its subject a particular category of artefact which may not conform to Western preconceptions of what constitutes African art, but this should not be allowed to detract from our appreciation. Furthermore, the creativity which has gone into the production of African arms and armour must not be obscured by the fact that these artefacts are often used in a context which attests to man's most negative and destructive cultural proclivity. At the risk of playing devil's advocate, I believe that to underrate the significance of these artefacts within the societies which produced them would be to overlook a whole range of human endeavour and activity. Weapons and Society
It is difficult both to detect and to analyse the concept of aesthetic appreciation in societies which do not appear to have a perception of 'art' as we in the West understand it. However, there is some evidence to suggest that there is a considerable difference between the type of object which might be considered of aesthetic significance in an African as opposed to a Western context. As Vaughan (1973) has pointed out, the Marghi of Northern Nigeria 'do not consider rock paintings or calabash decorations fitting topics for artistic activity, while they do view weapons as products which are worthy of an aesthetic appreciation'.

The theme for the Plant Group walks switches from primary forests to mangroves. Mangroves once comprised an estimated 10% of Singapore’s land area. Though greatly reduced in acreage, Singapore’s mangrove forests continue to harbour a rich flora, located as it is in the heart of the world’s highest area of mangrove diversity. Join Joseph Lai, one of Singapore’s leading botanists, as he takes us through a tour of our mangroves in preparation for a series of walks in the months ahead.

    Video-talk on “Sulawesi: a Birder’s Travelogue”
    by Professor Ng Soon Chye This talk will be held at the Geylang East Community Library Auditorium (3rd Level) from 7.00 to 8.30 pm. Sulawesi is a bird watcher’s paradise as it has a high endemicity rate (20% of its 280 species recorded there). Prof. Ng was a member of a trip organised by Mr Alfred Chia to North and Central Sulawesi from 8 to 19 June 2002. This trip has already resulted in a slide show by Mr Jimmy Chew, who illustrated his talk with stunning slides. This video-show complements his talk by highlighting the bird and mammalian species seen by the group. There are interesting views of many endemic species of birds in Sulawesi. There will also be a short additional footage on the Bali Starling, as a result a short side-trip. Come and join Prof. Ng Soon Chye for an interesting evening.

The video show will take place from 5-7 pm on Wednesdays. Class Overview This course combines new technologies and new ideas as part of a unique experience called the Global Classroom. In content, it adds the ideas of globalization and the methods of Web programming to produce a class that students in many places take at the same (a "distance learning" class). This class will be linked to a variety of classes at AU and other places in the world. The course has a history of focusing on new technologies and new issues. Since 1992, the course has taught computer programming technologies as a means of presenting critical ideas issues related to trade or globalization and aspects of the human condition such as environment, culture, rights and work. This effort has been systematic and over time has revealed a wealth of information available in a variety of media but principally through the Web. You will add to this wealth in two ways.

    "In the time of our fathers the tropical rain forests stood immense, inviolable, a mantle of green stretching across entire continents. That era is no more. Today in many parts of the tropics the clouds are made of smoke, the scent is of grease and lube oil, and the sounds one hears are of machinery, the buzz of chain saws, and the cacophony of enormous reptilian earth movers hissing and moaning with exertion. It is a violent overture, like the opening notes of an opera about war, a war between humans and the land, a wrenching terminal struggle to make the latter conform to the whims and designs of the former."
    Excerpt from the book "Nomads of the Dawn" (Wade Davis). "I say to my country, and to other developing countries, that in our race to modernize, we must respect the ancient cultures and traditions of our peoples. The wealth of indigenous communities lies not in money or in commodities, but in community, tradition, and a sense of belonging to a special place. The world is rushing toward a single culture. We should pause, and reflect on the beauty of diversity."

Underwater Archaeology ISLAMIC ARCHAEOLOGY PERIOD Early Islamic Period : 1300-1600 In some examples the ruler's decision to convert was immediately followed as a matter of course by all his subjects; in others an appreciable proportion of the population seems to have converted first, followed by their ruler in what may have been a politically motivated act. Different agents were involved in different parts of Indonesia: sometimes itinerant merchant-missionaries of foreign or mixed parentage, in others conquering warriors, in still others charismatic teachers. Different schools of Islam were popular in different areas. The Shi'a sect made converts in several areas, and traces of the mystical sect known as the Dervishes can still be seen in some parts of Indonesia. In general, the forms of Islam which received the readiest acceptance espoused a Sufi philosophy. Sufi-influenced believers can be divided into two groups: 'mystical orthodoxy' and less orthodox variants. Islam introduced new terms into Indonesian languages, and new symbols into architecture and art. However, the spread of Islam was accompanied by the same process of Indonesianisation as was the adoption of South Asian traits 1,000 years earlier.
