- Abstract
This article aims to see variations in two local cultures that are different in accepting Tionghoa ethnic. Local culture is one of the factors forming the pattern of appointment of identity and community stigma in a process of social integration of multiethnic communities. This article was analyzed using descriptive analysis of data collected from field observations, interviews, and documentation studies. In this article, the data shows that Tionghoa ethnic is an ethnicity whose identity continues to fluctuate in the dynamics of local culture. The local culture that is the focus of the research is a variation of the culture of the people of Padang and Makassar, both of which are dominated by Minang culture and Makassar culture. Two cultural variations of ethnic groups in different places, both have egalitarian characteristics and have their unique patterns in terms of intermingling with Tionghoa ethnic. The findings also show that Tionghoa ethnic, Padang and Makassar ethnic identities were formed gradually through a touch of local culture which naturally gave rise to a new identity for the Tionghoa ethnic without leaving their original identity while at the same time giving new stigma as a result of the appointment of the new identity.
