Abstract

West Kalimantan is a multicultural society because it consists of various ethnic groups, religions, and beliefs. Dominated by the Dayak ethnicity, West Kalimantan also consists of ethnic Malays, Chinese, Madurese, Javanese, and others. Sambas Regency, which was previously part of Singkawang City and Bengkayang Regency, is also a multicultural and multiethnic city. Nevertheless, the ethnic and cultural diversity in Sambas can be a strength for the region but also a threat because of the various conflicts that have arisen in the history of this region. It is not uncommon for competition and social conflict to occur because of this diversity. Examining this phenomenon, there are two problem formulations in this study, namely: (1) What are the latent conflicts that can threaten the harmony of the Sambas community? (2) What is the potential for tolerance that can maintain the harmony of the Sambas community? By using qualitative research methods through case studies, the subjects of this research are community leaders, human rights activists, academics, and local governments who have a role in managing conflict in Sambas. The data in this study were obtained through several techniques, namely: in-depth interviews, Focus Group Discussion (FGD), and observation. The findings of this study indicate that the latent conflicts in Sambas Regency are ethnocentrism, decreased hatred, politics, and social media. In addition, there is also the potential for tolerance, including education, social and cultural activities, government regulations and community actions, as well as support from opinion leaders
