Dream - The General Conference of the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization or UNESCO has decided to establish Indonesian as the official language of UNESCO. This was announced during the UNESCO General Assembly on November 20, 2023.
The decision was marked by the adoption of Resolution 42 C\/28 by consensus during the Plenary Session of the 42nd General Conference of UNESCO at the UNESCO Headquarters in Paris, France.
Currently, there are a total of ten official languages in the UNESCO General Assembly. They consist of six UN languages, namely English, French, Arabic, Chinese, Russian, and Spanish, as well as four other languages of UNESCO member countries, namely Hindi, Italian, Portuguese, and Indonesian.
The Government of Indonesia's efforts are one of the implementations of the mandate of Article 44 Paragraph (1) of Law Number 24 of 2009 concerning the Flag, Language, and State Symbol, as well as the National Anthem, which states "The Government enhances the function of the Indonesian language to become an international language gradually, systematically, and sustainably". This proposal is an effort de jure to have Indonesian language recognized as an official language in an international institution after de facto the Government of Indonesia has built pockets of foreign speakers of the Indonesian language in 52 countries.
The establishment of Indonesian language as the official language of the UNESCO General Assembly increases the position of Indonesian language. Initially, Indonesian language was declared as the language of unity in the Youth Pledge of 1928. Furthermore, Indonesian language was established as the national language in the 1945 Constitution.
Ambassador Mohamad Oemar, Permanent Representative of Indonesia to UNESCO, stated that Bahasa Indonesia has been a unifying force for the nation since the pre-independence era, particularly through the Youth Pledge in 1928. Bahasa Indonesia plays a significant role as a connector among diverse ethnicities in the homeland.
Currently, there are more than 275 million speakers of Indonesian language who have traveled the world. Furthermore, the Indonesian language curriculum is implemented in 52 countries worldwide with at least 150,000 foreign speakers.
The following is the translation of the given 'Bahasa' text to 'English' while preserving any html tags: "Ambassador Oemar said as quoted from Liputan6.com, Wednesday, November 22, 2023."
Ambassador Oemar conveyed that increasing awareness of the Indonesian language is part of Indonesia's global efforts to develop connectivity between nations, strengthen cooperation with UNESCO, and is a commitment to the international development of culture. The international recognition of the Indonesian language is also an affirmation that Indonesian is indeed worthy of being categorized as a language amidst debates regarding Malay and Indonesian languages.
