Jialan Report 95 – Working together to beautify the village

文字-A A +A

Once the permanent housing settlements were completely finished, the residents of Taitung’s Jialan Village (嘉蘭), one by one began adding the finishing homely touches. In order to support village restoration projects, each home can apply to the post-reconstruction project for a grant of up to almost US$3500.

In Jialan Village, most residents commission the master craftsmen to execute the work of adorning the village with its tribal character, but a small number of residents still prefer the traditional way of doing things, where work groups are formed to do each home one at a time; the ethos runs roughly on the idea, “today we’ll do your home and tomorrow mine.” This is an ancient tribal custom, and from time immemorial, villagers have used work groups to provide mutual assistance. Most homes in the village build a traditional ‘ubu’, a low stone-made wall that can be used as seating when guests visit. In the village, most people don’t invite guests directly into their living room, but instead entertain them in the front yard outside their home, or underneath an arbor. This traditional culture of ‘ubu’ building is very much alive and kicking inside Jialan Village.

嘉蘭報告95--換工美化永久屋

海棠永久屋和莫拉克永久屋先後完工之後,台東縣嘉蘭的住戶就陸陸續續在美化自己的家屋。這是原民會的災後重建補助案,原住民的永久屋都可以提計劃申請補助,每戶最多十萬元。

嘉蘭永久屋的美化工作,大部分住戶是包給師傅做,小部分是自己動手做。還有一些住戶是用「換工」的方式,也就是幾戶人家組成一個工班,今天做你家的,明天做我家的。換工是部落的傳統,直到今天,在農忙的時候,部落的老人家還是以換工的方式,互相幫忙。永久屋的美化幾乎都有做ubu,ubu是房子外面可以當椅子坐的矮石牆。在部落,一般人家都是在房子外的ubu或涼棚接待客人,而不是把人請到屋裡面的客廳。這是一種傳統建築文化,目前在嘉蘭還相當普遍。
