Intersection of Cultural Identity, Politics, and RMS Stigma in Moluccas

Christian Herman Johan de Fretes

Abstract


This article will provide a review by highlighting RMS impacts on Moluccas society, a region that was spearheaded by Dr. Soumokil, who chose to reject joining the Republic of Indonesia in 1950. During this periode of rebellion, cultural terms such as mena muria were used for political purposes. Its impact is still associated with separatism. The arrest and reprimand by state apparatus against Moluccans wearing clothing with mena muria written on it is an indicator that the cultural terms have been affected by the RMS (Republic of South Moluccas) movement, creates dynamics that impact various sectors. On the other hand, through the lens of stigma, this article will explain the Intersection of cultural identity, politics and RMS stigma in Moluccas.
