Abstract

Despite sustained policy initiatives to promote Bahasa Indonesia internationally, its strategic development as a regional lingua franca within the ASEAN Economic Community has received limited scholarly attention, particularly in relation to economic integration and multilingual governance. This study examines whether Indonesian can function as a regional lingua franca in ASEAN and analyses how its internal linguistic conditions (strengths and weaknesses) and external environment (opportunities and threats) shape its internationalization prospects. Employing a qualitative research design, the study applies a structured SWOT analysis to official policy documents, institutional strategies, and regional cooperation frameworks relevant to ASEAN. The findings reveal that, despite strong demographic presence, legal recognition, and geopolitical significance, the internationalization of Indonesian is constrained by fragmented governance, limited cross-sectoral coordination, and the absence of a coherent long-term strategic roadmap. The study argues that advancing Indonesian as a regional lingua franca requires a paradigmatic shift in language policy, reconceptualizing it as a multi-sectoral process integrated with diplomacy, economic cooperation, education, and cultural governance. Rather than serving solely as a communicative medium, Indonesian must be positioned as a strategic policy asset embedded within ASEAN’s political–economic structures. By situating Indonesian within a Global South perspective, this study contributes to broader debates on regional lingua franca formation beyond English-centred models.

Abstract

The Palestinian movement landscape has seen a tremendous rise following the rising death toll in Gaza. Among the loudest voices have been US campuses' student protests against their government and academic institutions' complicity in the war. In the face of the public opinion shift, this qualitative descriptive study aims to unravel how CNN Arabic maintains discursive power in its coverage of the pro-Palestinian protests. Focusing on CNN Arabic's initial reporting of the 'Gaza Solidarity Encampment,' this study analyzes the data by applying Theo Van Leeuwen's critical discourse analysis framework, specifically the Social Actors Approach. By utilizing this framework, the author examines CNN Arabic's representation of social actors in its narrative, exploring both their exclusion and inclusion. In light of the results, the author categorizes the data into three categories: the representation of (1) Columbia students, (2) the Columbia University president and critics, and (3) external actors. The results demonstrate CNN Arabic's elaborate use of both exclusion and inclusion strategies. Inclusion strategies were used repeatedly to marginalize student protesters and the university president, as well as to establish the credibility of external sources. On the other hand, exclusion strategies were used much less, primarily to divert readers' attention from the real issue and protect critics of the protests. By employing these strategies, CNN Arabic is able to maintain its discursive power, regain public influence, and convey negative sentiments toward the pro-Palestinian protesters.

Kata Kunci: Analisis wacana kritis, Representasi aktor sosial, Theo van Leeuwen, Republika   Abstract This research examines the representation of social actors in the news coverage of the Israel-Iran war in the online media outlet Republika during June 2025. This study aims to describe the social actors of Israel in the news using the social actor representation approach, the critical discourse analysis model by Theo van Leeuwen. A qualitative, descriptive method was used in this research, while the analysis technique employed was distributional analysis, which uses the language itself as the determining tool. The research results show that the online media Republika explicitly reports on Israeli social actors such as the state of Israel, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and Israeli officials by representing them more thoroughly through inclusion strategies such as Determination-Indeterminacy, Nomination-Identification, Nomination-Categorization, Objectivation-Abstraction, Differentiation-Indifferentiation, and Assimilation-Individualization, so that readers clearly understand what these actors are doing. These findings highlight the important role of the media in conveying information and reproducing reality for readers.
