Abstract

 ABSTRACT Language is regarded as a tool to present the ideologies of its users, including how media portray particular issue in their headlines. Rohingya has gained much attention by media, including South-East Asian newspapers. The massive clearing done by Myanmar government triggers the attention of media. Headlines are regarded as the important element of news since their jobs are to attract the readers and frame the ideologies of the readers as well as the media themselves. This paper attempts at discussing how South-East Asian media present Rohingya in their headlines. Five newspapers were involved: The Jakarta Post from Indonesia, Malaysia Kini from Malaysia, Mmtimes from Myanmar, The Nation from Thailand, and Daily Star from Bangladesh, taken during 2017. The analysis was focused on the choice of Theme in the headlines as it is the departing message of the headlines. The approach conducted was Critical Discourse Analysis utilizing the textual function of language offered by Halliday. The analysis revealed that South-East Asian media had similarities and differences in portraying Rohingya issue. The similarities were seen from the reflected ideologies, responsibility and blame, and the types of employed Themes. The difference was found in the way each media portrayed the ideologies. However, all media agreed to show their responsibility to end and solve Rohingya crisis to achieve peace and harmony amongst South-East countries.Keywords: headlines, critical discourse analysis, Rohingya

Abstract

The climate discourse has been contested regarding its mitigation, mainly involving government and international organisations such as the UN. Hence, it is necessary to look for an alternative viewpoint that actively includes the community, or us, in the climate discourse. As a global non-governmental organisation, Greenpeace plays a crucial role in providing beneficial narratives that can broaden our perspectives on the worsening climate crisis and the state of our planet. This ecological discourse analysis (EDA) approach took data from articles on the climate crisis from the Greenpeace Southeast Asia website, henceforth abbreviated as GPSAW, and uploaded the corpus to Sketch Engine. By focusing on the words community and government (also their synonyms), this study examines the social actors based on theories by van Leeuwen (2008) and ecolinguistics by Stibbe (2015). Findings reveal that GPSAW articulates a beneficial discourse by involving the indigenous community and their ecological practices. While the government is also a significant player in the climate discourse, GPSAW actively engages the community as a crucial agent in mitigating the climate crisis. Even though communities are still represented as vulnerable actors, their active participation in voicing climate justice fosters the government’s roles as regulator and facilitator in climate mitigation. GPSAW is ecologically beneficial by locating communities as essential subjects in mitigating climate problems. This paper sheds a new light on the importance of narrating communities as crucial as the government and international organisations in climate discourse. The role of local communities is evident in their concrete actions in urging the government to create a more ecological policy.

Abstract

Protest discourse has become a fruitful source of data for critical studies, as reflected in the Indonesian socio-political landscape in early 2025. As social media plays an important role in disseminating information and shaping public discourse, narratives and hashtags related to the protests quickly gained widespread attention and became trending topics on social media. This study investigates how digital activism is represented through the #IndonesiaGelap “Dark Indonesia” hashtag on X. This study adopted a corpus-assisted discourse approach to analyse 16,103 posts through the analytical framework of Theo van Leeuwen’s Social Actor Theory. The quantitative and qualitative analyses demonstrate that Indonesian citizens use the hashtag to express their rejection, criticism, mobilisation, and solidarity by involving particular social actors. Therefore, netizens used proper names referring to political elites to represent the most dominant social actors, which serves as a discursive strategy to blame the worsening political situation in Indonesia. In addition, the corpus reveals that many users associated those events with previous presidential elections, which they perceived as being controlled by political dynasties, with the metaphor of “dark” reinforcing these negative evaluations. These findings indicate that hashtags functioned to construct the ideological distinction between “us”, represented by citizens, and “them”, represented by the Indonesian government, elites, and media. This study emphasises the function of hashtags in shaping online political dissent and democratic debate.
