In addition, we see that the German family is very punctual and disciplined, so its relevance in the learning process is highly respected by the nature of discipline and timeliness.

Penelitian ini secara khusus membahas novel­novel Indonesia karya Suparto Brata. Masalah yang dibahas meliputi eksotisme, bahasa, indentitas, dan resistensi terhadap kekuasaan kolonial ditinjau dari perspektif pascakolonial. Dari pembahasan yang dilakukan diperoleh hasil bahwa dalam novel­novel karya Suparto Brata tampak jelas bahwa kekuasaan kolonial (Belanda dan Jepang) masih memandang pribumi sebagai masyarakat yang eksotis, yang bodoh, yang perlu dibina agar menjadi pandai. Sementara itu, bahasa kolonial (Belanda dan Jepang) masih dipandang sebagai bahasa yang tinggi derajatnya sehingga jika pribumi hendak memperoleh derajat (identitas) yang setara harus mampu berbahasa Belanda dan Jepang. Berkenaan dengan hal itu, berkat kepandaian yang ditanamkan oleh pemerintah kolonial, yang antara lain melalui penguasaan bahasa dan pengetahuan atau budaya Barat, masyarakat pribumi justru memanfaatkan hal itu sebagai upaya untuk melakukan resistensi terhadap kekuasaan dalam rangka mencapai kemerdekaan (kebebasan) penuh. Abstract: The research is particularly a discussion on the Indonesian novels written by Suparto Brata. The problem under discussion involves the issues of exoticism, language, identity, and resistance against the colonial powers in the perspective of post­colonialism. From the analysis, Suparto Brata’s novels obviously delineate that the colonial powers (Dutch and Japan) were so underestimating the natives as exotic, unintelligent folks, that such people was necessary to be taught for them to be more educated. Also, the colonial languages (Dutch and Japanese) were so highly perceived that the natives were to be enforced to speak those languages if they wanted their social status (identity) to be regarded equal. Accordingly, owing to such intelligences endowed from the colonial rulers, among others are the language skill and the knowledge on Western cultures, the native people then took the benefits by way of making resistance against the colonial powers under the agenda of full independence (freedom). Key Words: Suparto Brata, exoticism, language, identity, resistance.

The formation of the Indonesian nation-state is inseparable from linguistic engineering. This includes phrases that transformed their lexical meaning to become a binding political concession produced by Indonesian political leaders in the 1940s and 1950s. The official name of the Indonesian state “The Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia” is the result of this political concession in the statecraft of Indonesia. This article aims to examine the meanings of the “unity and unitary” phrases in the imagined form of Indonesian nation-state. Why was “unity and unitary” an effective political tool for the shaping of the imagination of “Indonesia”? Linguists and historians would these choices of words as a reflection of the power of language in the creation of facts. Language can transform a lexical fact into a material one. It is therefore essential to understand how did the phrase “unity and unitary” transform from a lexical to a political meaning in the context of Indonesian history? This article is based on literary analyses of official relevant documents, including the assembly proceeding of the Council for the Investigation of the Preparation for Indonesian Independence (Badan Penyelidik Usaha-usaha Persiapan Kemerdekaan Indonesia, BPUPKI) of August 1945, and the so-called Principal Guidelines for State Development (Garis-Garis Besar Haluan Negara, GBHN) of the New Order. It argues that the “unity and unitary” phrase represents a negotiation of diverse political elements which then shaped the crafting of Indonesian nation-state. The changes in the contexts in which the phrase was used show a changing association between the lexical and ideological meanings of the phrase. While these changes worked towards institutionalizing the Indonesian state, this article concludes that they also submerged the people’s discontents. The phrase “unity and unitary” reflected the making of people’s uniformity to a large extent.

This article covers the effort to restore the originality of regional names in West Sumatra. The effort aims to fulfill the mandate of UUD 1945.The chapters and verses on the language are included in Section XV, Article 36 UUD 1945 Subsection (4) mentions: "The naming as referred to in subsection (1) and subsection (3) may use regional language or foreign language when it has historical, cultural, customs, and/or religious values." There is almost no society in West Sumatera who reads, understands, and follow up the mandate of the UUD 1945 until 74 years of Indonesian independence. This article reports the results of the ‘qualitative-descriptive’ research on the names of areas in Padang City, one of the level II regions of West Sumatra. The regional names of the villages (103) at 11 sub-district of Padang was recorded, listed, and grouped. The name was confirmed by the authenticity of two respondents/public figure and government.It is noted that 70% of the regional names in Padang have been damaged; among others, using Indonesian vocabulary or vocabulary that is not in Minangkabau language and/or Indonesian at all. This percentage, then based on Kemendagri’s website, is assumed to reach 80% for regional name damage in all 19 regions in West Sumatera. The total number of nagari-level regions in West Sumatera is 903 units. The next research projects the ultimate goals: (1) the written regional naming document in Sumbar: the book of the regional name origin (historical value) and the book/dictionary of regional naming of Sumbar; (2) the birth of Perda Sumbar to return the original name of the district of Sumbar; and (3) desimination (1) and (2) on 19 district/city of Sumbar. Abstrak Artikel ini mencakup upaya mengembalikan keaslian nama daerah di Sumbar. Upaya tersebut bertujuan untuk memenuhi amanat UUD 1945. Pasal dan ayat tentang kebahasaan dimuat pada Bab XV, Pasal 36 UUD 1945 Ayat (4) berisi: “Penamaan sebagaimana yang dimaksud pada Ayat (1) dan Ayat (3) dapat menggunakan bahasa daerah atau bahasa asing apabila memiliki nilai sejarah, budaya, adat-istiadat, dan/atau keagamaan.” Hampir tidak ada masyarakat Sumbar yang membaca, memahami, dan menindaklanjuti amanat UUD 1945 itu sampai 74 tahun kemerdekaan Indonesia. Artikel ini melaporkan hasil penelitian ‘kualitatif-deskriptif’ tentang nama-nama daerah di Kota Padang, salah satu dari daerah tingkat II di Sumbar. Nama daerah se-tingkat kelurahan (103) pada 11 kecamatan Kota Padang dicatat, didaftar, dan dikelompokkan. Daftar nama itu dikonfirmasikan keasliannya kepada 2 orang responden/tokoh masyarakat dan pemerintah. Tercatat bahwa 70% nama daerah itu rusak; di antaranya, menggunakan kosa kata bahasa Indonesia atau kosa kata yang tidak ada dalam bahasa Minangkabau dan/atau bahasa Indonesia. Persentase ini kemudian, sesuai dengan data pada laman Kemendagri, diasumsikan mencapai 80% untuk kerusakan seluruh nama daerah di 19 kabupaten dan kota Sumbar. Jumlah keseluruhan daerah setingkat nagari di Sumbar adalah 903 buah. Penelitian lanjutan memproyeksikan sasaran akhir: (1) tersusunnya dokumen penamaan daerah di seluruh wilayah Sumbar: buku asal-usul nama daerah (nilai sejarah) dan buku dan/atau kamus penamaan daerah Sumbar, (2) lahirnya Perda Provinsi Sumbar ‘pengembalian nama asli daerah Sumbar’; dan (3) desiminasi (1) dan (2) pada 19 kabupaten dan kota Sumbar.
