Enemy

Lian was a pembakal (village head) in the Dutch Colonial era. He is a Mulo graduate on the island of Java. After graduating from Mulo he returns to Borneo, fortunately unbearable can not be denied Lian falling fallen tree, his leg broken, he became legged limp. Amid the physical limitations of the villagers still give him trust to be a pembakal. Lian is also a wealthy man in the village, almost all the land and forest in the village is his. Lambai a man of big stature. He is Lian's little brother, Unlike his brother he never went to school, he was more busy going out into the forest, be blind to every kind of letters. He was not so rich as his brother, his land and her inheritance forest he had sold most to eat, or he spent in the bookies of Gambling. Physical limitations made Lian submit some tasks to Lambai, for that purpose Lian taught Lambai read the Latin letters. Lambai is a man who likes adventure, all the forest around the village has entered he has entered repeatedly. Since taught to read and write by Lian Lian hobby is now increasing, now lian hobby is writing. Every time he entered the forest he carved wood, trees, stakes with the inscription of Lambai bin Amit. The words he memorized from the lessons Lian gave. Time is running so fast Indonesia has become independent. Lian and Lambai have passed away now are their great-grandchildren. Their great-grandchildren have a conflict of land overdelivery. Almost there was bloodshed among them, fortunately can be prevented by the authorities, if not immediately inevitably undoubtedly they will disappear like the Yadawa nation in India. The result of dialogue between Lian's and Lambai's descendants in the sub-district government, police and army facilities ends in failure, so there is no choice but to court. It took a long time to wait for the court decision. The trial started from Sampit court until Jakarta was won by Lambai's great-great-great-grandchild because Cicit Lian had no letters. Lambaipun's great-grandchild did not actually have correspondence on the land, but witnesses said they had seen the writing on wooden staples, pleaded in cow, stone carvings. The writing they saw was "LAMBAI BIN AMIT", some of which still remain today. Be the great grandchild of Lambai won the land dispute. Starting from the inheritance conflict they became enemies of each other, marked splitting the village into two parts of the upstream and downstream. Hulu is a descendant of Lian while Hilir is a descendant of Lambai. Two clans (groups) are always at odds. There is a kind of unreadable rule between the two groups, which is forbidden to marry, if in the downstream of the yellow party then in the red party upstream, or whatever the origin is not yellow. when the election of Regent, Hilir choose Fulan bin Sudar, then the upstream group will choose Fulan bin Awin or also other, important not the same. If you go to Borneo and you see the villages that are hostile to each other as the story above, that village might be what I mean. ***
