The Web 2.0 technology helps women to catch up with men in adopting the internet. After the introduction of free blog providers in 2000, a significant number of Indonesian women embrace digital communication through blogging practice. Having a resemblance with women bloggers in general, Indonesian women bloggers tend to use blogging to document personal experiences. However, my thesis refuses to see Indonesian women as single entities, thus I take up de Certeau’s idea in ‘The Practice of Everyday Life’ (1984) to explain that within the circulation of power in media discourse (Couldry, 2004) Indonesian women bloggers apply contextual tactics to reclaim their sense of agency in the Indonesianmale-dominated public sphere. Employing multidisciplinary approaches, my study aim to answer the questions“what kind of things people do in relation to media”? and also “how is the complexity of users’s engagement with media embedded in everyday life cultures”? (Takahashi, 2010; Couldry, 2005; Bird, 2003) within Indonesian women’s context. My study shows that blogging is not a universal practice, nor simple, limited or fixed. That is, in their engagement with blogging, Indonesian women make out by ‘poaching’ blogging in their own contexts and reconstruct blogging for their own social, economic, political and cultural benefit. Thus within Indonesian women’s context that were subjected to national ideology of state ibuism, a blog can be understood as a medium of negotiation for Indonesian women not only for joining public sphere, but also to create their sense of agency. i ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Guru Nanak said, ‘Without a Guru none can cross over to the other shore.’ I would like to express my gratitude to my supervisors, Philip Kitley and Mark McLelland for helping me crossing over to the other shore by supporting me with their academic excellence. Special thanks for Philip. If he did not keep challenging me from the beginning and pushing my boundaries I could not have learned as much as I did. I wish also to thank Heather Jamisson for her generous offer to help me with technical and editorial insights and especially for her ongoing friendliness and academic as well as personal encouragement. I would especially like to thank a number of Indonesian blogger communities and their members: Loenpia Semarang, Anging Mammiri, Aceh Blogger Community, Bali Blogger Community, Kayuh Baimbay, and Bertuah, for their support and friendships. We have witnessed that William Gibson is wrong, that Cyberspace is NOT a consensual hallucination. I am indebted to my father, mother, and sisters for their encouragement. I have been fortunate to have their support and unconditional love in all its forms. From them, I understand what Jim Butcher meant when he said ‘When everything goes to hell, the people who stand by you without flinching - they are your family.’ I share the credit of my work with good friends I have met throughout this journey. I would like to thank them for their good company and support: Inaya Rakhmani, Scott, Trish, Amelita, Nan and Pop, Old Man, Siew Lie, Robyn, Pieter, Michael, Frank, Paula, Didut, and Wedhouz. Emily Montague correctly said it: ‘Certainly, my dear, friendship is a mighty pretty invention.’ Finally, I dedicate this thesis to Gita. Thank you for your patience, understanding, acceptance, forgiveness and wonderful company.

  • The Importance of Teaching Slang in the Class of Indonesian As a Second Language
    Prosiding The 4th International Conference on Indonesian Studies: “Unity, Diversity and Future” THE IMPORTANCE OF TEACHING SLANG IN THE CLASS OF INDONESIAN AS A SECOND LANGUAGE Laura Zarbaliyeva, M.H. Department of Foreign Languages, Azerbaijan University of Languages [email protected] Abstract Slang is a controversial issue in teaching a second language since some teachers consider slang as a lower level of language while the others argue of its being an integral part of everyday language. Language purists choose not to use slang in the classroom because they associate it with vulgarity which would not be appropriate for academic environment. On the other hand, those who approve teaching slang believe that it is a key to a certain language speaking world. Indonesian slang that differs significantly from the standard language in both vocabulary and grammatical structure is used not only in everyday conversation but it also penetrated into popular media these days. This is the reason why an Indonesian language learner who has been taught only the proper version of the language faces difficulties in communicating with a native speaker or in fully understanding newspaper articles and TV programs. This paper suggests introducing slang in classes of Indonesian as a second language to increase confidence in students to interact actively with native speakers which can be realized via song lyrics, movies and role plays. Keywords: Indonesian as a second language, slang, second language teaching A. Introduction Based on the experience of teaching Indonesian as a second language for several years, the author supports teaching slang in the classroom for many reasons.

  • The Cultural Traffic of Classic Indonesian Exploitation Cinema
    The Cultural Traffic of Classic Indonesian Exploitation Cinema Ekky Imanjaya Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of East Anglia School of Art, Media and American Studies December 2016 © This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with the author and that use of any information derived there from must be in accordance with current UK Copyright Law. In addition, any quotation or extract must include full attribution. 1 Abstract Classic Indonesian exploitation films (originally produced, distributed, and exhibited in the New Order’s Indonesia from 1979 to 1995) are commonly negligible in both national and transnational cinema contexts, in the discourses of film criticism, journalism, and studies. Nonetheless, in the 2000s, there has been a global interest in re-circulating and consuming this kind of films. The films are internationally considered as “cult movies” and celebrated by global fans. This thesis will focus on the cultural traffic of the films, from late 1970s to early 2010s, from Indonesia to other countries. By analyzing the global flows of the films I will argue that despite the marginal status of the films, classic Indonesian exploitation films become the center of a taste battle among a variety of interest groups and agencies. The process will include challenging the official history of Indonesian cinema by investigating the framework of cultural traffic as well as politics of taste, and highlighting the significance of exploitation and B-films, paving the way into some findings that recommend accommodating the movies in serious discourses on cinema, nationally and globally.

  • Language Identities of Multilingual College English Learners in Indonesia

(2021). Language identities of multilingual college English learners in Indonesia. Eurasian Journal of Applied Linguistics, 7(1), 316–337. Doi: 10.32601/ejal.911403 Abstract College learners with their youthfulness are in a crucial phase of transition, which is often associated with a search of identity. Since language is a fluid identity marker, an investigation of language use to represent identity is challenging, especially when the speakers are multilingual. This article explores the linguistic identities of English college learners in Indonesia and offers an approach of English instruction in its tertiary education context which can accommodate their language identity representation. Through observation, a survey of 173 students of the English Literature Study Program, and in-depth interview with 13 representatives selected by purposive convenience sampling technique, this study found that other than identities related to their language inheritance, their closeness to English as their major of study and to digital media bring out other forms of identity as English Department students, youth, and millennial generation. However, this variety confirms monocultural rather than multicultural identity since they are deeply rooted in their local culture.

  • Indonesian Slang: Colloquial Indonesian at Work Pdf, Epub, Ebook
    INDONESIAN SLANG: COLLOQUIAL INDONESIAN AT WORK PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Christopher Torchia | 288 pages | 10 Sep 2011 | Tuttle Publishing | 9780804842075 | English | Boston, United States Indonesian Slang - Blow Job Tutorial | Qindas Nanda In Yogyakarta, where I am — located in the centre of Java and the traditional heartland of Javanese culture — Javanese is commonly spoken, partly as a reflection of cultural pride. A food vendor who pushes his wooden cart along my street every morning selling soto ayam spicy chicken soup often breaks into Javanese, making our conversations difficult for me to follow. He recently asked me something three times before I understood. The question, when I got it, revealed a pride in his heritage: had I yet seen wayang kulit shadow puppet play , the quintessentially Javanese cultural performance? The country has close to the freest speech in Asia, and young Indonesians are fanatical fans of Twitter, Facebook, WhatsApp and Instagram, using the platforms to evolve their own language with new and borrowed words. As Andini and I scrolled through Indonesian Twitter feeds during class one day, road-bumps of slang brought me to abrupt and frequent halts. Yet standard Indonesian — Bahasa Indonesia baku — remains the best way I have to communicate here, and for me, the language serves its original purpose. When someone speaks to me in a way I easily understand, I read significance into it, knowing they are likely tailoring it for me, adapting themselves, breaking things down as a conscious act of inclusion. This happened when I took a motorbike taxi home from class. I understood my young driver near-perfectly.

  • 'Towards a History, and an Understanding of Indonesian Slang'
    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by Prometheus-Academic Collections Towards a history, and an understanding of Indonesian slang John BOWDEN Jakarta Field Station Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology and Institute for the Languages and Cultures of Asia and Africa Tokyo University of Foreign Studies In this paper, I sketch out a brief history of Indonesian slang and make some comparisons with slang in some other languages in order to locate Indonesian slang in its wider multilingual context. By its nature, slang is often ephemeral and it is usually confined to spoken genres of language. Thus, it can be difficult to find records of older slang, and any history of slang is certain to be incomplete. Slang is often confined to particular subgroups within a society and it is often used to conceal its meaning from members of other subgroups in society. It is no coincidence that some of the first dictionaries of, for example, English slang were collections of the language of criminals and sailors. Indonesian slang is no different, so in this paper I will look at the slang of two subgroups in particular: preman (or gangsters) and gay men. 1. Introduction – what is slang? Slang is a phenomenon that is found in many languages, and it is a phenomenon that people in contemporary Indonesia recognise very well too. As in many places, some Indonesians express angst at the ‘withering away of linguistic standards’ that the use of slang entails for them. University student Novi A, for example is quoted in the Jakarta Post of 11 September 2009 as saying that using slang was detrimental to the national language.

At present public services demand excellent service and meet public satisfaction. The obstacles are rigid bureaucracy, incompetent bureaucrats or apparatuses, not professional, and technological gaps. Rapid technological development, such as digital technology and big data, has not been responded positively by most bureaucrats. Big data is a great potential for improving bureaucratic and public services. With qualitative method and Waterfall Software Development Life Cycle, this article provides the design of bureaucracy sentiment analysis application as implementation of big data technology for analyzing the opinion about bureaucracy service in Indonesia. So that, the quality of bureaucrats and bureaucracy services can be increased based on society opinion. The result of experiment using RapidMiner showed that sentiment analysis as big data technique for bureaucracy service based on society opinion can be used to evaluate bueaucratic service performance better.
