That, IMHO, is not necessarily a particular ethnic instrument. It could be a sample of a marching snare section, it could be from an escola da samba, or lots of other drum/percussion sounds. It could be a sample like the snare used in Simon & Garfunkel's "The Boxer" (recorded as an overdub near an open elevator shaft), or a big 80's gated reverb tom tom. It is more in the approach and the processing. If I was going to approximate the sound, I would layer several snares with maybe a taiko drum or higher-pitched bass drum or a low tom, something "wood-y" like a cajon slap, maybe a metallic sound like a garbage can lid, multi-track/layer all of that so it sounds big like a section, rather than a single instrument, then crush the heck out of it with compression, use some gated reverb, and add normal 'verb to taste. Or, I'd just use a very similar sound in my venerable Alesis HR-16B. Which may be a good place for you to look for a ready-made sample, if you can find an HR-16B pack out there somewhere. I know there is a huge 80's gated tom and a garbage can lid in there that would be my starting point.
