Abstrak
The purpose of this study is to identify and describe the forms of solidarity as well as the existence of the Bugis migrant community in Mataiwoi Village, Mowila District. The data were analyzed using a qualitative descriptive approach and subsequently presented in narrative form. The findings indicate that the solidarity of the Bugis community in Mataiwoi Village remains well maintained. This is evident in the frequent organization of social activities, such as communal work (kerja bakti), which represents a form of mutual assistance and reflects strong cohesion among members of the Bugis community. In addition, the Bugis community regularly organizes rotating savings gatherings (arisan), which function as a medium for face-to-face interaction and the sharing of experiences among community members. Collective land-clearing activities are also conducted, further strengthening social bonds. Moreover, the tradition of Siri’ na Pacce continues to be firmly upheld by the Bugis community wherever they reside. This tradition signifies a moral value whereby Bugis individuals experience a sense of shame if they are unable to assist their relatives or community members in times of hardship.
