The Breakers of Limitations from Gurung Mali
One night, in the village of Gurung Mali in Sintang district of West Kalimantan, the night was colder and darker. There was no light at all. The enchanting beauty of Gurung Mali village during the day felt short and the night was very long. People couldn’t do anything other than go to bed, including a man named Nayau.
Nayau often contemplated what he could do so that the beauty of his village could be seen even longer. This would make people be able to do more activities at night without any limitation.
The existence of electricity in their village was impossible to wait for because the location of the
village was very far from the government’s electricity installation facilities. Nevertheless, it did not make Nayau be in despair. When other people could only accept the situation, Nayau began to gather his friends to do something for the sake of the light for their village and for breaking up the limitation they had.
There was a faintly heard conversation among a group of men and women. They gathered before the campfire while roasting corn and drinking hot tea.
“Your idea is impossible Nayau”, said Paoi, “How can we build a micro hydropower plant? How much
money must it cost to build it?”
“Yes Nayau, do you have that much money?”, Nico asked.
“That’s right, moreover the distance of our village from the Filing river is also very far, Nayau” Paoi
scolded.
Nayau smiled and said, “Yes, I don’t have much money, friends. But if we work together, nothing is
impossible. This is for our goodness. Our village can be bright and beautiful at night and we can also do more productive activities at night without any limitations like now”
“If we don’t have money, how can we build a ditch to drain water from the Filing river Nayau?” asked Kosa, a woman engrossed in adjusting the position of the wood in the pit.
“We can try to use wood as it is cheaper”, said Nayau.
“How about using diesel fuel to drive the wheel?” asked Sinko.
“If we use diesel, we have to provide funds every day to buy the diesel and it can also pollute the air into our environment. If we use hydropower, it’s more efficient and more environmentally friendly,” Nayau explained.
“But using wood is still expensive, Nayau, because the distance is very far. We need to buy a lot of wood to build the trench,” said Apoi.
“Building the windmill also requires a lot of money, Nayau,” said Noh.
“We can borrow the material first, then we can pay it in installments,” said Nayau.
“Nowadays, there is no material owner who wants to give their goods without any collateral,” said Dasen “I am ready to be a guarantor for the sake of electricity in our village,” said Nayau.
“Wow, that’s very unreasonable. I don’t agree. I’m afraid the project will fail. There’s no electricity and money will be gone. For the worst scenario, we still need to pay for the material, “ said Miso, who had been silent for a long time.
Then some people left the group. Only a few remained, they were still sitting quietly.
“If we don’t try to change our condition, who else will change it for us?” Nayau said quietly. “We can’t just stand still, waiting for the electricity to come from the government and we don’t know when it will come,” Nayau added.
“That’s right,” said Apoi who was still sitting closest to the firebox.
“But I can’t make it happen alone. Together is stronger than alone, right?” said Nayau.
“Yeah, let’s do it together, I’m ready to help,” said Supardi.
“We can also help, the women’s troops are ready,” said Nino, the youngest woman among the others,
“Come on, we can do it together,” Hisako said, clenching his fists.
On the next day, they came to the materials shop to discuss the matter. After a few bargaining and such, they made an agreement. They had a deal. Nayau and several supportive friends such as Apoi, Sinko, Hisako, Noh, Dasen, Supardi, Mio, Nino and several other women began working together to build a dam and a mill house along with the water channel in the form of a ditch that reached 200 meters in length and 40 cm in depth. They worked collectively, piled sandbags for the dam, covered the mill house with tarpaulin and covered the generator with zinc. Everything was done manually. Every day, their profusely sweat was not felt as a barrier to their passions to change the condition
of their village. They were eager to make their village enlightened and eliminate the limitations of their activities at night.
After three months, the micro hydropower plant was finally completed. Finally, the houses where they lived were in joy at night. Those who previously doubted the value of hard work, cooperation and care for the environment then joined in cheers. Villagers were then more enthusiastic about protecting the forest and the surrounding environment to keep the water supplies remaining available. Nayau smiled broadly and was proud of his friends.” The beauty of Gurung Mali village
will stay forever and people will be more prosperous since they are more productive now,” Nayau whispered “Togetherness can break through limitations” .
