Who they are
The Javanese of New Caledonia descend from workers who migrated from the island of Java to work in the mines and on the plantations of this overseas territory in the Pacific. Over the generations, they have preserved distinctive aspects of their Javanese cultural heritage and Islamic religious traditions while adapting to New Caledonian society and life alongside other local groups.
