Displacement as a result of internal conflict in Indonesia
On February 2001, some 180,000 Madurese were displaced from Central Kalimantan to Madura Island(2) in East Java. The displacement was originated by clashes between immigrant Madurese and indigenous Dayaks that resulted in at least 450 Madurese deaths(3).
