Abstract

This research was used ethnographic methods on Indonesian sub-culture communities, Orang Bajo. A community group around the coast of Saponda and Kendari, Southeast Sulawesi. The phenomena of the Orang Bajo was awareness to understand ecosystem sustainability as a manifestation of the reason that values were passed down through old generations, and should not be lost from the lives of his grand children. Although basically the culture of their parents did not conflict and coherently with the reality of the teachings they believed in. Intend to reconstruct the concept of fishing with the Paserong system which had a good impact on the development of environmental awareness behavior of a society, so as not to give birth to ecosystem damage without reducing the value of the economic welfare of the community. A very eminent tradition, as well as the identity of the Orang Bajo people without having to destroy marine habitats and ecosystems, for example the Paserong system. The Paserong system was a fishing system carried out by few fishermen, especially Bajo or Sama tribes. And even now the fishing system was still being used and preserved. The Paserong system was a location prepared by Bajo fishermen made of wide nets such as cages or garden fences made of nets tied to bamboo stakes on the sea floor. Usually the Paserong system was carried out by one group consisting of several people in making, installing, and distributing results.
