Topic paragraph

I chose the topic "Language policy in Education" for Indonesia in Asia because it concerns me. I come from that country and feel that the issue of language, especially postcolonial, is an exciting topic. In addition, I am a local language user from more than hundreds of languages in Indonesia. By discussing this topic, I hope there are things I can make to make people know about the history behind Language Policy in Education in Indonesia.

I chose these five journals because they describe the big picture of the topic. I found it on many sources on the internet, especially google scholar. The Journal with the title "Language Policy in Indonesia" by Titis Setyabudi clearly explained language policy in Indonesia from a legal perspective. While in the Journal with the title "Language Policy in Indonesian Education: Regional and Local Languages as Oral Languages of Instruction" has the Historical Perspective of language in Indonesia. "Policies on language education in Indonesia" Journal mainly provides information about future possibilities regarding Indonesia's place, status, and roles as a foreign language. "Language education policy in Indonesia–a struggle for unity in diversity" journal described the condition in Indonesia with diversity. How Indonesian managed to become unity. "The Development of Indonesian Language Policy in Indonesia" journal would be a great source to explain how Indonesia has successfully implemented language policy by choosing the Malay language as its national language, which enables to unite ethics from a variety of vernacular backgrounds.

Language Policy in Indonesian Education

This article is about the language policy in Indonesian Education. For an overview on education in Indonesia, see Education in Indonesia.

Local languages in one of the regions (Northern Sumatra) in Indonesia

About one-seventh of the equator is occupied by the archipelago of more than 17,000 islands that make up the Republic of Indonesia. Over 225 million people live in the archipelago. "Bhineka Tunggal Ika" or Unity in Diversity is the Sanskrit message that Indonesian people share with each other. In spite of this, they have a variety of ethnicities, religious beliefs, and languages. In Indonesia, there should be more than 1000 languages spoken at home by children as their mother tongue or what prefer to call their home language. Indonesia has determined its national language policy in a highly successful manner, unlike other multilingual nations such as India and the Philippines that have struggled with socio-political problems due to the adoption of a single national language. During the historic event of the First Congress of Indonesian Youth in 1928, Bahasa Indonesia was made public as the national language for this archipelago country and was later affirmed when the first language congress was held in1938.

The place of specific language in education

Bahasa Indonesia has historical and symbolic value for Indonesians as the language of national unity and independence from colonial rulers. After the independence period, Indonesian played an essential role in all government administrations, businesses, media, and as a medium of official instruction in all schools, with many other schools continuing to use the local language. In this case, schools are the mechanisms that shape national language standards, but not just Indonesians featured in language education policies.

Indonesian

Indonesian as The language of unity is the language that they will speak in every school in Indonesia. Indonesian can use the regional language in kindergarten and the first three years (Regulation No. 4, 1950, Chapter IV part 5).

Local language

The maintaining of "bahasa kita" above "bahasa kami" doesn't imply that the neighborhood language is then wound down. Most neighborhood dialects, nonetheless, stay in a minor position and some have proposed that the nearby substance prerequisite to a great extent served to advance the spread of English to the detriment of neighborhood dialects, because of interest from the local area, bosses and states.

English

The instructing of English in Indonesian schooling began in the college area with the foundation of an English language program at Universitas Nasional Jakarta in 1949.The inclination for English was generally a philosophical one as at first English was not related with previous colonizers and later Suharto was emphatically lined up with the West and viewed English as vital for solid monetary ties. Indeed, the help for English during Suharto's Presidency was entirely solid, to the point that English divisions developed from 15 to 106. English has been embraced as a mode of guidance close by Indonesian in tertiary levels through bilingual/drenching advanced education programs starting around 2003. But English has been acknowledged by a gigantic number to be a critical language to figure out how to participate in globalization, the public power's attitude doesn't show a ton of help for including English as a piece of its language procedure. To the potential gain of Bahasa Indonesia, the use will proceed to create and unsurprising execution of the language methodology will ensure its procedure with progress.

The challenge of language policy in Indonesia

The policy of language in Indonesia in general policy is quite elaborate. As described in Government Regulation of the Government of the Republic of Indonesia Number 57 of 2014 Development, Development and Protection of Language and Literature, and Improvement of Indonesian Functions, where Article 36, which began in the 1928 Youth Pledge, continued in the 1945 Constitution. The change period in Indonesia, which started in 1999, has carried with it a decentralization of instructive administration. This adjustment of how instructive issues are overseen has been important both as far as strategy making just as strategy execution.

The future of language education policy

The issues that are critical to be reexamined by Indonesian methodology makers are the means by which huge overall language like English can be installed even more unequivocally, especially in guidance so Indonesians can battle all around alongside various nations. Then, other than having its public language, it should not be dismissed that Indonesia has numerous vernaculars. Thusly, work on the use of Bahasa Indonesia just as secure and advance vernaculars which address social tradition of this country. Instruction should give a shifted language collection and a comprehension of which dialects we ought to realize for what reason. This recommends a language strategy that works on the nature of the educational plan, instructing, and learning in state schooling, just as an approach that assists with situating the job of the various dialects in a more sure and secured setting.
