ABSTRAK
The Dayak Meratus is an indigenous tribe of Indonesia. The Dayak Meratus refers to the tribe’s geographical location [1]. They inhabit the Meratus Mountains in South Kalimantan Province, the third largest island globally. The data on Indonesia’s population is not precise enough to pinpoint an exact number. The bulk of Meratus Dayaks reside in isolated communities. The Dayak Meratus subscribe to the Kaharingan belief system, grounded in their comprehension and experiences of nature and the cosmos [2]. Their primary revenue is derived from agriculture, specifically cinnamon, rubber, and candlenuts. Religious based non-profit organizations significantly contribute to the education of the Dayak Meratus tribe. NGO movement also influenced religious conversion from traditional beliefs to Christianity or Islam. As a result, religion laid the foundation for the establishment of the Dayak Meratus community. Christians and Muslims primarily inhabit a section of the hamlet. Christian communities generally exhibit a higher level of education compared to Muslim groups. The Meratus Dayak community in Tatayan Hamlet and Kipas Beach predominantly follows Christian doctrines. The community is renowned for its excellent level of education. What is causing that occurrence? We shall delineate some potential causes in the subsequent section.
