Abstract

Indonesia is one of the top ten destinations for Chinese people. In fact, Chinese tourists contributed the highest number of foreign tourists to Indonesia. The innovative access to information facilitated them to plan itinerary in Indonesia. The Indonesian government who aimed at increasing Chinese tourists can implement digital tools. This brief study elaborates the use of journalism to review destinations which were disseminated through Wechat. Various destinations in Indonesia can be informed to more than 800 million of Wechat users. The reviews of a tourism destination are not limited to general or popular destinations, but also to new destinations that have not been known widely. The news structure is divided into 6 sections, including location details, the history, the attraction, how to get to the place, useful information, and the cost. Some obstacles related to translation and the dissemination of the news can be solved by working with some parties to promote this strategy.DOI: https://doi.org/10.24071/ijhs.2017.010111

Abstract

This study explores the linguistic landscape of Prawirotaman Street in Yogyakarta, focusing on three research questions: the languages and language strategies used in public signs, public attitudes towards these languages, and the public's perception of their usage. The intersection of global communication needs and local heritage preservation is examined through a qualitative methodology involving photography and interviews. Using Cenoz & Gorter’s classification system, 51 units of analysis were identified and categorized according to Thongtong Tiwahporn's classification classification of signs. Additionally, interviews with shop owners, employees, and tourists were conducted to understand the motivations behind linguistic strategies and their attitudes towards English, Javanese, Indonesian, and other languages. The study found that Code Mixing was the most prevalent language strategy, used in 35% of the signs, followed by Hybrid Syntactic Structures and Abbreviations. Quantitative data revealed that 51.85% of the signs were monolingual, while 48.14% were bilingual, with English being the most frequently used language. The public's perception of language use varied, with 46% expressing positive attitudes and 27% very positive. The results highlight the delicate balance between meeting international tourism demands and preserving local linguistic heritage. This comprehensive approach, combining qualitative insights and quantitative data, provides a nuanced understanding of the linguistic landscape in Prawirotaman Street, contributing valuable insights into language use in urban tourism contexts.

Abstract

This study investigates the euphemism treadmill phenomenon in job termination language within Indonesian and Chinese contexts. Employing Pinker’s Euphemism Treadmill (2003) and Hofstede's cultural dimensions (2001), this study analyzes euphemistic expressions used in 3 Chinese economic news outlets (National Business Daily; China Business Network; The Economic Daily) and 3 Indonesian economic news outlets (CNBC Indonesia; Bisnis; Kontan) over 2019-2023. The data collection involved job termination keyword searches and manual screening of articles to compile a comprehensive corpus of job termination euphemisms, with native speakers reviewing and coding the data for accuracy. The analysis draws on a contrastive linguistic framework and cultural dimensions to interpret cultural factors influencing euphemism usage. Our findings reveal clear evidence of the euphemism treadmill effect in both languages, characterized by the continuous creation and replacement of euphemistic terms as they lose their mitigating power over time. Cultural values such as power distance, collectivism, and uncertainty avoidance manifest in euphemistic language practices in both languages. Results indicate that high power distance and collectivist orientations in both cultures contribute to the prevalence and evolution of job termination euphemisms. The research also explores how economic contexts, societal attitudes, and globalization influences shape the euphemism treadmill in these linguistic environments.

Abstract

Global warming and climate change caused by emissions are currently a priority concern for the world because they will have a direct and significant impact on the survival of all living things. As financial institutions that provide financing to the industrial sector, government banks and regional government banks financing can potentially develop the Indonesian economy while having a negative impact on emissions from industrial sector activities. By adopting the Vector Error Correction Model (VECM), this reserach reveals that government banks and regional government banks have a significant impact to the sustainable development index. However, in addition to the two types of banks only identified as short-term financing, the proportion of influence generated sequentially for government banks and local government banks are only 13% and 11%. Finally, the need for large funds and a long financing repayment period are significant aspects in building a more sustainable industrial and economic climate.

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the evolving neologism, ephemeral discourse, and socio-cultural significance of 10 Chinese internet buzzwords in 2021, which are 双减 (shuāng jiǎn), 躺平 (tǎng píng), 元宇宙 (yuán yǔzhòu), YYDS , 社交牛逼症 (shèjiāo niú bī zhèng), 绝绝子 (jué jué zi), 跌妈不认 (yuán yǔzhòu), 破防 (pò fang), 鸡娃 (jīwá), and Emo. Employing a quantitative and qualitative approach, we collected those buzzwords from news articles and analyzed their usage trends using the WeChat Index from 2021 to 2024. This study revealed the creative word formation processes and semantic properties of these neologisms among the Chinese netspeak. The WeChat Index data showed that 7 out of the 10 buzzwords experienced a decline in popularity after two years, while three buzzwords maintained an upward trend. Using the concept of ephemeral discourse and critical discourse analysis, we explored how these buzzwords addressed key social, cultural, and political issues, such as education reform, social pressures faced by youth, and the impact of technology on society. The buzzwords popularity trends were influenced by factors such as the natural lifecycle of neologisms, shifting public priorities, and societal attitudes. Keywords: Chinese Internet Buzzwords, Neologisms, Ephemeral Discourse, WeChat Index, Critical Discourse Analysis.

Abstract

This study examines how economic concepts are metaphorically constructed in Indonesian and Chinese news headlines. Employing the Lakoff and Johnson's framework of Conceptual Metaphor Theory, the study analyzes and compares conceptual metaphors in economic news headlines from CNBC Indonesia and China Business Network published between January and April 2025. Employing a qualitative methodology guided by MIPVU, the study mapped conceptual economic metaphors in a corpus of 500 economic news headlines. The investigation demonstrates a significant overlap in the conceptualization of economic events in both languages: economic actions are physical movements, business is a natural force, economy is a competition, money is liquid, profit is up and loss is down. Despite these similarities, this research identifies unique conceptual metaphors. In the Indonesian context, unique metaphors include trade is hunting, business is a monarchy, business is a tidal cycle, business is a supernatural phenomenon, and economic actions are a martial arts skill. conversely, unique Chinese economic metaphors include business is a game, business is a historical event, business is a philosophical action, company is a martial arts school, and business is a cultural activity. This comparative study demonstrates that while universal cognitive mechanisms underpin some shared economic metaphors, the specific metaphors used in Indonesian and Chinese news headlines are strongly shaped by their unique cultures, histories, and philosophies.
