Abstract

The unequal distribution of tin resources and profits on the Bangka Island coast is a major problem. This is due to the lack of a political settlement which has caused conflict between state-owned and private mining entrepreneurs, fishermen, and local governments. The central government has also failed to distribute power over the tin resources. This has led the parties to defend their rights by opposing, accepting aggression, and having divided attitudes. The local government's interests are in residents’ welfare, profit sharing from mining, and the threat of environmental damage. This study has concluded that unequal access to tin resources in the Bangka coast will continue unless the state and the parties involved building a strong and inclusive political settlement.
