January 2001 became a vehicle for the advocacy of environmental and residents’ interests related to the dispute with PT Palur Raya.185 From its formation XXL was proactive in its advocacy of community and environmental interests and made frequent use of a variety of advocacy techniques, including press releases, lobbying and demonstrations. With the participation of various NGOs the group was also well resourced, having access to legal and environmental technical expertise. The cohesion of the group was also assisted by its authoritative leader, a policeman by profession and an influential local religious leader. One obstacle in the dispute resolution process were divisions in the Ngringo community between residents employed by the factory and those whose livelihood was threatened by the factory’s pollution. Conflict was also exacerbated by the industry’s strategy of winning support amongst the community through gifts, monetary payments or offering positions of employment.186 The fact that the official village head (k9pŒlŒ d9SŒ) had tended to side with the factory also caused some division of leadership in the Ngringo community.187 Despite this, community support for the advocacy of KKL remained relatively high within the community and a fairly high level of community solidarity remained throughout the process of the dispute resolution. Partly because of environmental education carried out by NGOs, the community representatives were convinced of the necessity of an environmental rather than a monetary solution. Whilst the community did seek compensation for past environmental damage, this did not displace their primary concern of environmental restoration and prevention of further pollution by the factory. As a result, frequent resort by the industry to “money politics” did little to undermine community opposition to the factory’s pollution. As one NGO worker involved with the community observed, Other environmental cases are often resolved with money. But I think this case will be different. The community aren’t going to stop at compensation. They are determined to resolve the environmental problems at stake.188 185 Ibid. 186 Tri, 9 February 2000. 187 Mutakin. 188 Mutakin, 11 January 2000.
