The application of the bureaucratic system of regional autonomy has an implication toward the freedom to express ethnic identity within a social life. Especially in the communities that have a diversity of ethnic groups could experience duality. On the one hand, the group that occupied the majority position can express their identity freely without obtaining obstacles. On the contrary, the identity of which is owned by minority groups may not be able to express their identity in completely as often experienced the dominance of the majority group. This case is experienced by Hindu Balinese ethnic in Central Lombok, West Nusa Tenggara Province. Freedom in the area of expressing cultural identity is not fully realizable. Cultural dominance was marked by violence against aspects of cultural identity in the implementation of the Hindu religion. Based on the issues raised, this article would discuss the background of cultural dominance and Balinese ethnic community strategies in addressing the cultural domination by the majority group.
