The Baduy
The Baduy who call themselves Kanekes, are a traditional community living in the western part of the Indonesian province of Banten, near Rangkasbitung. They are forbidden to kill, steal, lie, commit adultery, get drunk, eat food at night, take any form of conveyance, wear flowers or perfumes, accept gold or silver, touch money or cut their hair.

The Baduy will blow up. They are a symbol of illiteracy amongst predominant society which flux such a turbulence cultural and technological fields. I intend to learn a lot and at the same time expose The Baduy Village--its People, Land and Mind so that everybody knows that they exist in fact, not only we do.
