Abstract
Rural settlement or kampong tends to have a negative image, associated with slum area in the city. Their inhabitants who become migrant workers in foreign countries, however, have changed this image. They do not only send remittance to households in the village but also change the image through building higher quality housing using their remittance. Also, the interaction of Desa-Kota has been changing because the ex-migrant workers who then live in
their rural kampong keep their new perception and life style. Focus of this paper is to describe the influence of new life style of ex-migrant workers on the conditions of their rural settlement and its housing pattern.
Keywords: Interaction; Desa Kota; Migrant; Village (Desa) of Mariuk
