{'sulawesi': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'indonesia': [1, 0, 1, 0], 'sumatra': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'land territories': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'kalimantan': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'java': [1, 0, 3, 5]}

Option 1: Sumatra. This option suggests that Sumatra, a land territory of Indonesia, is not touched by the Equator. However, this statement is incorrect. Sumatra is actually crossed by the Equator, making it one of the territories touched by it.

Option 2: Sulawesi. This option suggests that Sulawesi, another land territory of Indonesia, is not touched by the Equator. This statement is also incorrect. Sulawesi is actually crossed by the Equator, making it one of the territories touched by it.

Option 3: Java. This option states that Java, a land territory of Indonesia, is not touched by the Equator. This statement is correct. Java is located above the Equator, which means it is not directly crossed by it.

Option 4: Kalimantan. This option states that Kalimantan, yet another land territory of Indonesia, is not touched by the Equator. However, this statement is incorrect. Kalimantan is also crossed by the Equator, making it one of the territories touched by it.

In conclusion, the correct answer is option 3, Java. It is the only land territory of Indonesia that is not directly touched by the Equator.
