      A kampong (this term is in Za'aba Spelling, kampung in both modern Malay and Indonesian) is a term for a type of village in Brunei, Indonesia, Malaysia and Singapore and a "dock" in Cambodia. The term applies to traditional villages, especially of indigenous peoples. This term has also been used to refer to urban slum areas or enclosed developments and neighborhoods within towns and cities in Brunei, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Cambodia, Sri Lanka, and Christmas Island. The design and architecture of traditional kampong villages have been targeted for reform by urbanists and modernists. These villages have also been adapted by contemporary architects for various projects.
      The English word "compound," when referring to a development in a town, is thought to be derived from the Malay word kampung.


      Etymology


      The word kampung or kampong is derived from Bahasa Melayu (the Malay language). The word is often translated today as "village" in English.


      Brunei



      In Brunei, the term kampong (also kampung) primarily refers to the third- and lowest-level subdivisions below districts (Malay: daerah) and mukim (subdistricts). Some kampong divisions are villages in a social sense as defined by anthropologists, while others may only serve for census and other administrative purposes. Others have been incorporated into the city limits of the capital, Bandar Seri Begawan, or into nearby towns.
      A kampong is generally led by a ketua kampung or village head. Infrastructure-wise, it typically has a primary school and a balai raya or dewan kemasyarakatan, the equivalent of a community centre. Because many kampongs have predominantly Muslim residents, each may also have a mosque for the Jumu'ah or Friday prayers and a school providing the Islamic religious primary education compulsory for Muslim pupils in the country.
      Both kampong and kampung are considered to be correct spellings, and both alternatives are common in written media and official place names. For example, Keriam, a village in Tutong District, is known as "Kampung Keriam" by the Survey Department but "Kampong Keriam" by the Postal Services Department—both being government departments.


      Cambodia


      In Cambodia, "kampong – កំពង់" is used to describe a place on a river or lake-shore where people can dock their private small boats. It also refers to a dock facility for commercial or passenger ferries and boats, such as Neak Loeung's ferry-dock (កំពង់ចម្លងអ្នកលឿង) and Akreiy Ksatr's ferry-dock (កំពង់ចម្លងអរិយក្សត្រ).
      The term kampong has been widely used in Cambodia, likely for thousands of years, to name places such as provinces, districts, communes and villages. Some examples include: the provinces of Kampong Som (ក្រុងកំពង់សោម; currently Sihanoukville), Kampong Cham (ខេត្តកំពង់ចាម), Kampong Thom (ខេត្តកំពង់ធំ), Kampong Chhnang (ខេត្តកំពង់ឆ្នាំង), and Kampong Speu (ខេត្តកំពង់ស្ពឺ); the districts of Kampong Trach (ស្រុកកំពង់ត្រាច), Kampong Trolach (ស្រុកកំពង់ត្រឡាច), and Kampong Siem (ស្រុកកំពង់សៀម); the communes of Kampong Khleang (ឃុំកំពង់ឃ្លាំង) and Kampong Kdei (ឃុំកំពង់ក្តី); and the villages of Kampong Prasat (ភូមិកំពង់ប្រាសាទ), Kampong Krabei (ភូមិកំពង់ក្របី), and Kampong Our (ភូមិកំពង់អ៊ួរ). (Page 37, Chun Nat, Dictionnaire Cambodgien, Institut Bouddhique, Phnom Penh, 1967).
      Based on the examples above, the meaning of kampong in Khmer can also arguably be defined as "an area or place located near a river or lake that people named as their own after they arrived, or formed their community at afterward."


      Indonesia



      In Indonesia, kampung generally refers to a hamlet, which is considered the opposite of the Indonesian kota ("city" in English). However, most Indonesian cities and towns initially consisted of a collection of kampung settlements. There are four typologies of kampung. They are: inner city kampung, which has very high density and is inhabited by 100,000 people per square kilometer; mid-city kampung, which is inhabited by 20,000–40,000 people per square kilometer; rural kampung, which has very low density; and squatter kampung, where people are scattered in metropolitan areas.
      Kampung also usually refers to a settlement or compound of a certain ethnic community, which later became incorporated into a place name. Some examples include: the Kampung Melayu district in East Jakarta; Kampung Bugis (Buginese village); Kampung Cina (also known as Pecinan), which refers to a Tionghoa village or could be equivalent to Chinatown as well; Kampung Ambon (Ambonese village); Kampung Jawa (Javanese village); and Kampung Arab (Arab village).
      On the island of Sumatra and its surrounding islands, the indigenous peoples have distinctive architecture and building features, including longhouses and rice storage buildings in their kampungs. Malays, Karo, Batak, Toba, Minangkabau, and others build communal housing and tiered structures.
      The term kampung in Indonesia could refer to a business-based village as well—for example, Kampung Coklat (lit. "the Chocolate village") in Blitar, East Java, which mainly produces and sells chocolate products (bars, candies, powders, coffee, cocoa butter, etc.) from the local cacao farmers; Kampung Seni (lit. "the Arts/Performances village") in various places across Indonesia where local artisans make and sell their crafts; and Kampung Batik (lit. "the Batik village") which mainly produce and sell batik, offering [[Batik|batik-making]] courses and training. In 2009, several Kampung Batik, in collaboration with the other official entities such as the Batik Museum in Pekalongan, Central Java, were recognized by UNESCO regarding the "Education and training in Indonesian Batik intangible cultural heritage for elementary, junior, senior, vocational school and polytechnic students" as part of the Masterpiece of Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity in Register of Good Safeguarding Practices List. The kampungs in Indonesia have attracted global tourists as well, such as Kampung Panglipuran in Bali, which was awarded as one of the world's cleanest villages in 2016.


      Malaysia



      In Malaysia, a kampung is defined as a locality with 10,000 or fewer people. Since historical times, every Malay village has operated under the leadership of a penghulu (village chief), who has the power to hear civil matters in his village (see Courts of Malaysia for more details).
      A Malay village typically contains a mosque or surau, paddy fields or orchards, and wooden Malay houses on stilts. It is common to see a cemetery near the mosque. Dirt roads are more common than paved roads for village people to travel between kampongs.
      The British initiated the Kampung Baru ("New Village") program as an attempt to push Malays into urban life. Malaysia's long-serving prime minister Mahathir Mohamad lauded urban lifestyles in his book The Malay Dilemma and associated kampong village life with backward traditionalism. He also had the kampung setinggan (squatter settlements) cleared and new buildings constructed to house their residents.


      Singapore


      The traditional Malay kampung is found in Singapore. However, few villages remain, mostly on islands surrounding Singapore (such as Pulau Ubin). In the past, there were many more kampung in Singapore, but they were gradually replaced by development and urbanization plans. Development plans for Kampong Glam have been controversial. Singapore is also home to Kampong Buangkok, as featured in the film The Last Kampong.
