Abstract

Badoncek is a type of tradition that is orally inherited in Pariaman community, West Sumatera. The term badoncek is a fundraising activity conducted by relatives and local residents at a wedding ceremony. This activity is usually performed at night after the invited guests come home. In this study, 20 informants of Pariaman were interviewed in two different locations, that is Pasar Sukaramai in Medan and Naras Hilir village in Pariaman. These interviews generated a total of 6 forms of local wisdom in badoncek and 5 forms of its weaknesses which were then recorded, transcribed, and documented. This research uses in-depth interview and focus group discussion. The focus of discussion was finding the forms of local wisdom and the weakness in oral tradition badoncek. These forms and weakness were analyzed based on interpretation and comparison methods. A number of attempts have been made to preserve badoncek tradition by approaching the local government, customary leaders of Pariaman, and Pariaman community associations. Badoncek tradition could also be applied to raise funds, in order to support local government program.
