    <p>Hi Adam, all,</p>
    <p>In a couple of recent publications on Riau Indonesian (below), I
      argue, inter alia, that although there is no word-level stress,
      there is actually lots of other phonological stuff going on,
      providing strong support for the existence of a disyllabic foot. 
      So essentially the opposite of what you are looking for.</p>
    <p>Best,</p>
    <p>David</p>
