Answer 1

Saminist Movement in Indonesia:-

In 1890s Surontiko Samin, a teak forest villager began questioning state ownership of the forests. He argued that the state had not created the wind, water, wood and earth, so the state could nit own it. Surontiko Samin was a resident of Randublatung village which was a teak forest village. Soon a widespread movement developed. Among those who helped in organising the protest, were Samin's sons-in-law. By 1907, 3000 families were following his ideas. Some of the Saminists protested by lying down on their land when the Dutch came to survey it. While others refused to pay taxes and fines or perform any labour.
