A Chinese Indonesian Mosque’s Outreach in the Reformasi Era
نویسنده
چکیده
In the post-Suharto Reformasi era, Chinese Indonesians are enjoying new freedom to express their culture. The ethnic Chinese number around three million, making up about 1.5% of the nation’s population (Suryadinata 2004c: vii). Chinese Muslims constitute a minority religious group within this minority ethnic group, and little research has been done on them. Jacobsen (2005) puts forward a pessimistic view of the place of Chinese Muslims in modern Indonesian society, even calling them ‘a redundant legacy of history’ (2005: 87). He describes them as positioned awkwardly between the predominantly Muslim population and the Chinese, most of whom follow traditional Chinese religions or Christianity.
