Introduction
Indigenous knowledge refers to the understandings, skills, and philosophies developed by societies with long histories of interaction with their natural surroundings. For rural and indigenous peoples, local knowledge informs decision-making about fundamental aspects of day-to-day life.
Borneo is the third-largest island in the world and the largest in Asia. The island is politically divided among three countries: Malaysia and Brunei in the north, and Indonesia to the south. The island is politically divided among three countries: Malaysia and Brunei in the north, and Indonesia to the south. It is the only island in the world to be politically administered by three countries at once. Approximately 73% of the island is Indonesian territory. In the north, the East Malaysian states of Sabah and Sarawak make up about 26% of the island. Additionally, the Malaysian federal territory of Labuan is situated on a small island just off the coast of Borneo. The sovereign state of Brunei, located on the north coast, comprises about 1% of Borneo's land area. A little more than half of the island is in the Northern Hemisphere, including Brunei and the Malaysian portion, while the Indonesian portion spans the Northern and Southern hemispheres. Table 1 summarizes the understanding of its economy by the countries.
| Countries | Economy |
|---|---|
| Brunei | Up to 90% of the state’s GDP is dependent on crude oil and natural gas. Because of its rich oil resources, Brunei is the fourth-largest producer of oil in Southeast Asia. |
| Malaysia (Sabah & Sarawak) | Timber export was the main resource of Sabah’s economy, but with efforts to save forests and its flora and fauna, the palm oil trade has emerged as an alternative trade. Other agricultural products that Sabah trades in, include rubber and cacao along with fisheries and vegetables. With time, the tourism industry has turned out to be the second-largest contributor to the economy. LNG and petroleum are the main sources of the Malaysian federal government's economy for decades, while Sarawak merely receives a royalty. Tropical hardwood timber is the backbone of Malaysian exports and Sarawak is one of the largest exporters of such type of wood. Both the state’s economy is also influenced by its rising tourism industry. Almost every year the state witnesses a drastic increase in the number of tourists visiting Sabah and Sarawak. |
| Indonesia | Around 73% of the island of Borneo is covered by Kalimantan, the Indonesian territory, which is sub-divided into four major parts such as East Kalimantan, West Kalimantan, North Kalimantan, and South Kalimantan. The economy of East Kalimantan is dependent on natural resources such as oilfield exploration, natural gas as well as coal and gold mining. Other sources of income include agriculture and tourism. The economy of South Kalimantan is supported by many economic sectors. Agricultural sectors include rice, corn, peanuts, soybeans, coconut, rubber, cloves, and cacao. Livestock, fish products, and the forestry sector have a major role in the economy of South Kalimantan. The mining sector is ruled by petroleum, coal, diamond, gold, iron ore, and tiles. Wood carvings, rattan and wood furniture, reptile skins, and weaving are famous handicrafts. Major exports for West Kalimantan are processed wood, rubber, and fish while log, sawn timber, rattan, and resin come from Central Kalimantan. |

Literature Review
Indigenous knowledge is highly connected to spirituality. According to Clarry Sada (2019), any development must accommodate the indigenous people gradually to preserve the environment and culture. Borneo Island is one of the heartbeats of the world, therefore, the governments should preserve the land of Borneo as conservation areas and forests. However, in the last few years, it has become the industrial area so many business organizations run their businesses in various sectors such as plantation, mining, and other explorations. Unfortunately, the development has not got much impact on the indigenous people in the area because the local has not yet ready for the impact of industrialization.
Bibliometric analysis is a widely used research method for detecting the state of the art for a particular field. The method can utilize quantitative analysis and statistics to describe patterns of publications within a given period or body of literature. Researchers employ bibliometric analysis for determining the evaluation of a field of study or to ascertain influences and the relationships of several distinct fields. The term bibliometric was first invented by Fairthorne (1969) and Pritchard (1969). Bibliometrics is one of the most systematic measures for analysing literature and most often uses quantitative approaches. In addition, the bibliometric analysis can identify the research gaps and provide guidance for the future studies within the emerging field.
Method
Scopus science database was used in this bibliometric research to analyse collected documents with the title, abstract, and keyword of “Borneo”. This study analyses all types of publications released from 2017 to June 2021 in the Scopus database. Scopus is an extensive multidisciplinary database containing citations and abstracts from peer-reviewed papers, industry journals, books, patent records, and conference publications. It offers tools to track, analyse and visualize search data. In addition, currently, the Scopus database contains more than 39,743 titles, of which over 25,000 actives and 14,558 inactive titles (mostly predecessors of the active titles) and it has also contained more than 210,000 books. This kind of database can provide an inclusive overview of the scientific research output of the world. Currently, the Scopus database is considered one of the primary sources of related information by the international scientific community.
Bibliometric analysis was executed by the Scopus database as of June 2021. The following keywords have been used in the Scopus database to search relevant articles which is related to (TITLE-ABS-KEY (Borneo) AND (LIMIT-TO (PUBYEAR, 2021) OR LIMIT-TO (PUBYEAR, 2020) OR LIMIT-TO (PUBYEAR, 2019) OR LIMIT-TO (PUBYEAR, 2018) OR LIMIT-TO (PUBYEAR, 2017))).
- Microsoft Excel 2019 was used to compute the frequency and percentage of each publication and to create appropriate graphical representations.
Objectives
This research conducted a bibliometric analysis published on Borneo by involving the following research questions:
- RQ1. What is the current trend and impact of publication on Borneo studies?
- RQ2. Which are the most productive and influential countries, institutions, and authors on Borneo studies?
