Abstract

The tea plantation in the Parakansalak Sukabumi region dispatched workers to Amsterdam in 1883 to participate in De Internationale Koloniale en Uitvoerhandel Tentoonstelling. The Sundanese ethnicity, which was the local culture of the colony's region, was highlighted by the plantation owner, Mr Holle, in order to sell the tea product. Presentations of Sundanese culture may include gamelan, dancing performances, or social history excursions. Europeans observed colonial residents engaging in music and dance, as well as going about their daily lives in village society. This essay employs a qualitative technique with literature studies and focuses on situational analysis to investigate the activities of the Sundanese people through the Parakansalak tea plantation group in Amsterdam in 1883 to describe the existence of the Sundanese society. This study exposed Sundanese culture during the Exposition activity to determine the consequences of the Sundanese population's presence in Amsterdam, Europe. The results obtained were the astonishment of the European community who saw the culture of the colonized nation. The first impression, Europeans see a group of Sundanese people who practice low and primitive culture. Still, it united people of different religions, ethnicities, and skins to fundraising for the Mount Krakatoa disaster in the Dutch East Indies.
