What is Dayak Kalai Tribe: Customary Law Insights about?

Criminal law among the Dayak Kalai tribe in West Kalimantan historically punished adultery by imposing fines such as jars or guci. Adultery was considered a violation of customary law and believed to damage the social order. Punishments for adultery ranged from fines to ostracization or expulsion from the village depending on the situation. Civil law recognizes customary law but some conflicts exist, such as customary marriage practices not requiring parental consent unlike national law.
