Danisht D. Greyhouse,
Our reality.
Indonesian digital television regions. There are too many regions that some of them could only access TVRI channels. Also, there are more local TV channels in Java and Sumatra than in other islands. East Kalimantan is better divided into 2 regions rather than 7.

By complete means and apparatus, and along with the greatest authority, a state could unleash political injustice, economic injustice, social injustice, legal injustice, and even humanitarian injustice.

Do you notice that Okko (streaming service) and Okko (bread) share this logo? BTW, this bread brand was banned recently due to sodium dehydroacetate.
My image also appears on Berita Kota Makassar.
Most utility poles in Central Java are actually called "pole tops" in English. No specific name in Indonesian.

Term preferences

[edit]
  • I'd rather like to use the Mahakam or the Mahakam river instead of the Mahakam River.
  • I prefer to refer the so-called Indonesian "TV networks" as "TV channels" instead.

My thoughts and opinions

[edit]
  • Although Java only has 4 principal languages (Sundanese, Betawi, Javanese, Madurese, some with debatable divergent dialects as languages) and Bali only has Balinese, it is much easier to preserve these languages rather than those in other islands.
  • Indonesian naming customs are roughly similar to that of Malays of neighbouring Malaysia, Brunei, and Singapore, except that Malays have patronymics.
  • The Indonesian dialect of Samarinda is characterized by free word order (despite this does not correlate with richer inflection, since it is basically an analytic language).
  • Betawi is closer to Bangka Malay (and possibly older Palembang Malay) than any other Malayic languages, noting the retention of *-əC and fronting of final *-a to -e. I even think that these varieties are among the earliest to diverge from Proto-Malayic (Kerinci, although being extremely divergent, can be derived from the nuclear Malayic).
    • Nonetheless, most (but not all) Malayic languages are partially mutually intelligible (and part of a dialect continuum).
  • Wilkinson spelling, introduced by the British, is the antecedent of both Indonesian and Malaysian orthographies, although the knowledge about this older spelling is almost unknown except in Malaysia (collection of former British colonies). Wilkinson spelling originally used ch and sh instead of modern c and sy. Modern c was simplified from ch (van Ophuijsen tj > *ty), while sy was derived from van Ophuijsen sj.
  • Digital on-screen graphics of most Indonesian regional TV stations follow the Bangladeshi model (always in full color, never removed in advertisements, and often permanently animated).
  • The greatest extent of South Kalimantan included:
  • Indonesia during Abdurrahman Wahid's era was technically a parliamentary republic with an executive president, similar to that of South Africa; or an assembly-independent one, similar to that of former Dutch colony Suriname.
  • I don't understand why fictional placenames "Wakanda" and "Konoha" are used by Indonesian users as pejoratives for their own country, suggesting that the country is simply fictional. Basically, they are now blaming their own country, claiming that most Indonesians have low IQ, low human resources... They are also creating the stereotype for themselves being the dumbest people in Southeast Asia.
  • I'd never watched Samarinda TV in my life. It has been defunct since August 2023, leaving cable Tepian TV as the only local TV station in Samarinda.
  • Anti-Rohingya sentiment is on the rise.
  • The id:Suku Rohingya page is currently autoprotected. It previously has been subject to racist content on that ethnic group. Rohingyans were labeled as "devils" on the page. (I don't welcome any vandalism)
  • Almost every current Indonesian female full names have at least one name that end in either -a or -i. Many names also have those end in both. Counterexamples are suprisingly extremely rare.

Indonesian dialects

[edit]

Indonesian is divided into several dialects, many of them are still unclear.

Kalimantan

[edit]

Currently, only Pontianak and Banjarmasin have their own identifiable dialects (see also: Pontianak Malay and Banjarese). Elsewhere, the dialects are still unclear, since the native ethnic groups have a smaller proportion than the newcomers. It has been mixed with Betawi-based Indonesian (which is closest with Bangka Malay), similar to the new mixed dialects of Polish. Since the upcoming establishment of Nusantara as the national capital, it will be increasingly indistinguishable from either that of Jakarta or the standard language.

Some notable people I met

[edit]
  • Ismunandar [id], former regent of East Kutai, on 28 March 2019, during a shareholder meeting on Bankaltimtara. He was later arrested a year later due to a corruption case.
  • Vaguely, Bando Amin [id], former regent of Kepahiang in 2015, at his house. He was later arrested two years later also due to a corruption case.
