English Media in Indonesia

There are not many English-speaking media (newspapers, magazine, portal) in Indonesia. In fact, they are very few compared, for example, to its neighboring countries like Malaysia and Singapore.

Among the below mentioned, only The Jakarta Post and The Jakarta Globe which have its print version.

Most Indonesians actually learn English since Class V. They understand English, at least the grammar. Since English language is not the lingua franca (bahasa pengantar) in most Indonesian school, rather it is just one of subject among many other subjects in the class, they don’t speak it. That’s why, no publishers ever have the gut to publish any newspapers in English.

The following list of Indonesia media in English below is to tell non-Indonesians that if they want to know the latest news about Indonesia, they know where to go. Or if this list is not enough, they can go through Google News on Indonesia (in English) which come from various foreign media publication.

1. The Jakarta Post
2. The Jakarta Globe
3. Antara Indonesia News Agency (English version)
4. Kompas.com (English version)
5. The Bali Times
6. Vivanews.com (English version)
7. Tempo Interactive (English version)
8. Inside Indonesia (Published from Australia)
9. Google News on Indonesia (from various sources)

Let me know, via the comment box, if you find out other English speaking media in Indonesia other than those already mentioned.

The Center Of The Google Vs Facebook War: The Like Button

By now it has become well known that Google is planning a competitor to Facebook. While many believe that it may be too little too late for Google, the reality is that it’s a matter of survival for the company at this point. Google’s automated algorithms have become inefficient in that their systems are somewhat easy to game and despite Marissa Mayer once claiming that search is 90 percent solved, the reality is that it isn’t anywhere close. Every day I perform searches on Google which simply fail. For me, searching has become a rapid process of trial an error. Enter the Like button, the social solution to search, and the replacement of the link as a voting mechanism. The people as a whole are more effective at determining what content is relevant and most of those people are unfortunately not effective at creating links. Case in point: there were 126 million blogs as of 2009 (easy to create sites where creating links is easy) and there are now over 500 million Facebook users activel...
