Pemboewan or Pemboeang (Banjar : pambuang walanda) was a subdistrict (Dutch : onderdistrict) of the Dutch East Indies, located in modern-day Central Kalimantan, Indonesia.

Pemboewan is believed to have been the forerunner of the current Seruyan Regency. This district was established not long after Sunan Nata Alam handed over Pembuang Banjar to the Dutch VOC.

History

Early history

The Pemboewan area was originally the territory of the Banjar Sultanate. At that time, a lot of area expansion was carried out by the Banjar Sultanate which made the Sultanate's territory very wide. At that time, this area was called Pambuang. [1]

According to the Radermacher report, in 1780 the head of the Pembuang area (now Seruyan Regency) was Raden Jaya. [2]

Since August 13, 1787, the Pembuang area (Seruyan Regency) was handed over by Sunan Nata Alam to the Dutch VOC. Even so, the first known regional head was Kjai Ngabei Djaja-Negara who ruled from 1834. [3]

Under Onderdistrict government

Before 1880, the Seruyan area consisted of 13 villages where government officials were called "Assistant Kjai" who ruled directly from Sampit. The villages were Beratih (now Kuala Pembuang), Telaga Pulang, Sembuluh, Pembuang Hulu, Asam, Durian Kait, Sandul, Sukamandang, Rantau Pulut, Tumbang Kale, Tumbang Manjul, Sepundu Hantu, Tumbang Darap. In 1880. With the rapid development and growth of villages, an onderdistrict was formed with the capital city at Telaga Pulang.

In 1902, the capital moved from Telaga Pulang to Pembuang Hulu but did not last long and in 1905, the capital in Pembuang Hulu was moved to Kuala Pembuang, because of its location on the south coast, so it was considered strategic, especially for government, transportation and economic activities at that time.

Disestablishment

In 1940, the Japanese Empire expanded its territory to the South, namely to the Southeast Asia region, getting into conflict with the Dutch East Indies. The Dutch East Indies fell to the Japanese. Japan took control of the Pemboewan in early 1941.

In 1946, the kecamatan of Seruyan was formed out of the onderdistrict of Pemboeang, with Kuala Pembuang as its capital. Seruyan then joined the Great Dayak region under the leadership of J. van Dyk, ending the Pemboeang era. [4]
