Abstract

Abstract: This article examines the management of the government system of Buton Sultanate in one philosophy: “Poromu Yinda Saangu, Pogaa Yinda Koolota”. This philosophy is believed to be the unifying of the Buton Sultanate for hundreds of years. This paper is a qualitative descriptive with ethnographic approaches. The results indicate that this philosophy provides insight to the citizens of the Buton sultanate on the importance of relations among elements of government such as Kaomu, Walaka, and Papara. These three elements are likened to a human body consisting of Kaomu as Head, the place of the good brain, brightly lit because it always receives the light of Divine Nur. Walaka is as a body; the heart contains a sacred heart because there is a place where the balance of justice is published. Papara as an accomplice has the power of lahiriyah. The relationship of three elements is bound and intertwined in one philosophy: “It is near but untouchable, it is far away, but no space between them”. This implies that all three must unite to uphold justice and common interests, but they should not violate other rights. Therefore, this philosophy can be used as the central management system to build good governance.
