Kinship and Semelai Residential Arrangements: Belonging to Village and the Resilience of Communal Land Tenure in Tasek Bera, Malaysia

By examining two villages in Pos Iskandar, Tasek Bera, the article shows that Semelai have a sense of grouping based on consanguinity, where parents, married children and siblings live in proximity, which traditionally formed a kampong (village). This contributes to the resilience of the communal land tenure system. Today, however, land is seen as property and this has led to its informal inclusion in the Semelai concept of pesakak manah (inheritance). While Semelai try to maintain their living arrangements, individual and inherited property rights in land are emerging. Land remains deeply embedded in kin-based relationships, but the legitimacy of land rights is predominantly grounded in law and legislation rather than in the customary norms of kinship and communal land tenure that is based on relationality. The moral underpinnings of land rights should, therefore, be anchored in a relational perspective that draws from kinship and the communal land tenure system.

亲属关系和塞梅莱人的住所安排:属于村庄和马来西亚Tasek Bera的公共土地使用权的复原力

通过考察Tasek Bera的Pos Iskandar的两个村庄,该文章表明,塞梅莱有一种血缘关系,即父母,已婚子女和兄弟姐妹居住在附近,这在传统上形成了甘榜村。这有助于提高公共土地所有制的弹性。然而,今天,土地被视为财产,这导致土地被非正式地包含在pesekak manah(继承)的Semelai概念中。在Semelai尝试维持其生活安排的同时,土地上的个人和继承财产权正在兴起。土地仍然深深植根于亲戚关系中,但土地权的合法性主要基于法律和立法,而不是基于亲属关系和基于关系的公有土地权属的习惯规范。
