Establishing English-Indonesian Bilinguals In Indonesia: From Theory To Practice

Journal Title: RA Journal Of Applied Research - Year 2015, Vol 1, Issue 10

Abstract

For the last two decades the establishment of bilingualism taking English language as one of the target languages has become the main concern of expanding English speaking countries including Indonesia on the grounds that the establishment of English-Indonesian bilinguals could generate qualified and competitive Indonesian citizens who are superior in terms of handling the global communication practices, holding a sufficient intercultural awareness, and having global perspectives serving as the properties of being successful for engaging in the social planes of the global context. Also, being English-Indonesian bilinguals is believed to strongly mind the link of symbols, concepts, and referents across languages which enable them to successfully deal with the meaning making of English texts in order to highly attain the nature of English language. Therefore, the establishment of being English-Indonesian bilinguals is of great importance for Indonesian people to cope with global communication distractions due to the insufficient English language proficiency which directly or indirectly retards the attainment of the development of the issues of information and technology, economy, culture, and the like. In reference to the establishment of EnglishIndonesian bilinguals, this paper attempts to explore a theoritical framework of the establishment of bilingualism in Indonesia followed by two types of modes (nature-oriented and nurture-oriented models) which have been conducted in Indonesia.
