Abstract

The author values the need to increase cooperative relationship of multi-ethnic life based on varieties of ethnic groups, cultural conservation, identity building towards civilization and national language maintenance. This cooperation is needed to bridge social communication among ethnic groups as well as social interaction pattern control as guidance for behavioural conduct of a diverse society as such that had taken place in South Kalimantan in the 12th-17th Century in order to prevent social conflict.
