Abstract
This study examines the efforts of the people of Kundi Village, Simpang Teritip Sub-district, West Bangka Regency in maintaining the Sedekah Kapong tradition amid social and economic changes.

Using a qualitative approach and Max Weber's social action theory, the research found that the community actively performs various social actions to maintain the tradition, including the formation of a committee and the rejection of oil palm plantation expansion. Despite the shift in agricultural yields, the tradition is maintained as a cultural identity through adaptation and resistance to change. The research emphasizes the importance of subjective meanings and collective motives in the preservation of traditions in the modern era.
