Dear Jakarta Language Enthusiasts,
We know that in the early days of Indonesia’s
independence, Sulawesi Island were divided into four
provinces: North Sulawesi, Central Sulawesi, Southeast
Sulawesi, and South Sulawesi.
As time goes by, currently the number of provinces has
risen to six with the addition of Gorontalo and West
Sulawesi.
Yet, admittedly most of us, especially those in Jakarta,
has a gap of understanding regarding to the variety of
culture and language in Sulawesi Island.
We might only know a glimpse of Central Sulawesi after
the 1998 Poso riot and 2018 tsunami that hit Palu and
its surrounding.
Furthermore, we might also only know West Sulawesi as a
result of region expansion from South Sulawesi.
In the fourth Language Exchange Meetup of Langlang Buana
Nusantara series, Polyglot Indonesia Jakarta Chapter, in
collaboration with Serikat Nasional Akademisi Sulawesi
Barat (Sandek-Sulbar) and Persatuan Pemuda dan Pelajar
Sulawesi Tengah Se-Jabodetabek (Permuda Sulteng), will
present to you unique facts about Central and West
Sulawesi province!
Our friends from Sandek-Sulbar and Permuda Sulteng will
also teach us their local ethnic language!
What are you waiting for?
Come and join us!
Available Languages:
English, Dutch, German, French, Spanish, Italian,
Russian, Japanese, Mandarin, Korean, Hindi, and Arabic.
