10. TREATMENT OF INDIGENOUS VULNERABLE PEOPLE

10.1 Indigenous People and Road Development

The social and economic development of all groups of people is a long term aim of both the GOl and the World Bank. With respect to planning and development of an integrated transport network this means taking special efforts ESS 24 to reduce the physical isolation of communities, thereby allowing them to more equitably share in the social and economic gains of development activities available to other communities. At the same time efforts need to be made not to unduly disrupt the social values and distinct cultural traditions of indigenous peoples. Setting out a fixed procedure for dealing with indigenous peoples is difficult since each project and types of impacts are likely to vary considerably. What is required is sensitivity to the unique needs and concerns of each group. Planners must exercise judgment in identifying which communities and groups will require special attention. The World Bank identifies indigenous peoples as .... social groups with a social and cultural identity distinct from the dominant society that makes them vulnerable to being disadvantaged in the development process” Operational Directive 4.10. The concern of the World Bank is that peoples so identified share in the development process, but in a manner which does not disrupt or damage their unique socio-cultural heritage. Isolated Vulnerable Peoples Masyarakat Terasing, previously translated as Isolated Peoples commonly referred to now as Komunitas Adat Terpencil are not necessarily culturally or ethnically different in the eyes of the GOI but are physically residing in remote areas having poor communications and access to services.

10.2 Government of Indonesia Approach

In general terms, Bina Marga believes that the construction of newimproved roads in the vicinity of Isolated Vulnerable People provides considerable benefits to those people but accept that there are also some disbenefits to such people. These views being based on the post construction evaluation of some projects and other reports, including the recently completed VI study Independent Monitoring and Evaluation of the Impact of Kabupaten Road Projects on Isolated Peoples for Regions in Sumatra and Kalimantan and a similar study done by Universitas Cendrawasih in Irian Jaya. For the purposes of Road and Bridge Development, Isolated Vulnerable Peoples are deemed to include, at least, those identified in Departement Sosials Data dan lnformasi Pemberdayaan Adat Terpencil 2002 and Basil Pendekatan sosial Budaya 19951996. However, prior to proceeding with the detailed planningdesign of any newimproved road in a remote area, the latest available information on Isolated Vulnerable Peoples should be obtained from the appropriate offices of Dinas Sosial at Province and Kabupaten and from the local community and NGOs. In particular, it is thought that improved accessibility, due to the availability of a newimproved road, will provide the Isolated Vulnerable Peoples with better access to education and health facilities, and economic opportunities. Potential disbenefits include exploitation by persons from outside of the community, a loss of identifyculture and an inability to fulfill newly created opportunities, due to a lack of trainingeducationfinancial resources.
