“…Using the folk ballad Kissa kan Panglima Hassan, or The Story of Panglima Hassan, Ingilan (2018) investigated parang sabil and discovered that it is performed according to the dogmas of dar' al Islam (peace), martabbat (honor), and Tawheed (oneness). 5 During the Muslim holy month of Hari Raya Puasa, the chief of Sulu was tormented, according to folklore (feast of fasting).…”

Terrorists and the threat of terrorism know no pandemic, as the 2020 Jolo suicide bomber incident vividly demonstrates. One of the signs of the new age of Philippine terrorism is the emergence of suicide terrorism. However, the lack of adequate explanations for the phenomenon shows that suicide terrorism is still a poorly researched topic in Philippine terrorism studies. This paper aims to contribute to the literature by investigating the power dynamics, specifically looking at how the phenomenon is interpreted by scholars using the Foucauldian Discourse Analysis. This study presents several scholarly arguments, examines how these arguments are created, and looks into the implications of their understandings. We argue that scholars hold the power to interpret the phenomenon. Their interpretations are crucial in policymaking. The results reveal that the limited information available allowed for such a diverse range of hypotheses. Yet, despite the limitations, their initial interpretations are crucial in addressing the issue at this time. This highlights the importance of scholars in this setting. The truths revealed here may or may not have an impact on unique community conditions.

“…The Suluk or Tausug, known as unconquered (Hedjazi & Hedjazi, 2002;Ingilan, 2018), amphibian warrior, passionate religionist (Mayo, 1925), navigator (Warren, 1981 ), and friendly and hospitable (Bruno, 1973), have a deep history in the sea areas and are known for their reputation on cultural and political independence. They are inhabitants of the Sulu Archipelago and the northeastern shoreline of Borneo, and they recognize themselves as Suluk, Anak Negeri, coastal people, sea people, indigenous maritime group, and Orang Asal Pesisir (Joeman et al, 2021;Musa et al, 2018;Somiah, 2022;).…”

The Orang Suluk, who call themselves Tausug, have a deep history in the sea areas and are known for their strong cultural and political independence. Residing in the Sulu Archipelago and the northeastern coast of Borneo, they identify themselves by names such as Suluk, Anak Negeri, coastal people, sea people, indigenous maritime group, and Orang Asal Pesisir. Symbols are a part of the Suluk Indigenous Mediation (SIM) approach, which is still practiced on the east coast of Sabah, Malaysia. The techniques mentioned are organic to the Adat (customs) of the Suluk passed down from their forefathers. This study discusses the essence of partandaan (symbols) found in SIM practices of the Suluk mediators in the said geographical area. Five expert informants in Semporna, Lahad Datu, and Sandakan shared their wisdom, experience, and interpretation of the SIM during the in-depth interviews as empirical data. The researchers also did library work to collect secondary data. Employing Hewitt’s Symbolic Interactionism (2002), findings revealed that objects, social acts, and language carry symbols that are meaningful to the life of the Suluk. They influence the thinking of the Tausug, maintain the balance and harmony of their day-to-day life, and crystalize the vision of peace, understanding, and forgiveness. Indeed, symbols are fruitful tools for successful culturally and religiously sensitive mediation. The study highlights the significance of symbols in Suluk Indigenous Mediation, suggesting further exploration of cultural variations and the potential integration of symbolic elements into conflict resolution mechanisms.

The taumaas (headman), as the nakura’ (leader) and a sara’ (lawgiver) of the adat (customs) appointed by the udduk hula’ (permanent resident), is the informal leader following the customs and traditions to exercise traditional authority over the Suluk communities. This study explores the tabiat kariasali (instinctual role) of the informal taumaas leadership in the Sabah East Coast Suluk communities, which uses a unique form of community leadership that addresses different community needs, including emotional well-being, spiritual harmony, social vices, educational needs, and healthcare. Through interviews with the nine taumaas in Semporna, Lahad Datu, and Sandakan in Sabah, the study reveals the strengths of the taumaas system. Thematic analysis of the responses highlights these leadership strengths, promoting social harmony through traditional mediation methods and integrating nasihat (religion) and governance to address emotional and spiritual needs while utilizing flexible collaboration and transformative justice approaches to combat social vices. Additionally, the creativity of the taumaas system is demonstrated through community-based literacy programs and the integration of traditional healing and healthcare practices in the Suluk community. However, the study also finds that the challenges they face, particularly in securing funds to sustain essential programs and the responsibilities of the taumaas, encompassing conflict resolution, education, and healthcare, create tension given limited financial resources. The official acknowledgment and support from the authorities would significantly enhance the informal leader’s endeavors to uphold peace and order and advance human development and cultural preservation. It is hoped that this study could explore potential solutions to resource constraints and investigate how the system can adapt when challenges arise in the Suluk community.
