Abstract
Issues on fundamentalism, radicalism, extremism and terrorism have continued to spread for the last two decades, along with various cases that have encouraged them. Indonesia, which is known for its hospitality, mutual cooperation, kinship, and friendship, seems to have changed. In the historical trajectories recorded in inscriptions, cultural practices, and intellectual documents, Indonesia has indeed been considered as a tolerant or moderate state. It is interesting to see if this truth still exists or has been written off by new values. To portray such truth, this research is accordingly conducted in Bangka Island. With a qualitative method, the research data on how religious moderation in this area is actually maintained or has even changed over time according to the needs of the times are obtained.
