   Hi

   I wish the Java Script & Bali should be preserved and used.

   The Central Java People should learn Java Script and Indonesian Bahasa.

   Bali People should use Balinese script

   I speak Tamil and i have read that Tamil ( TAM ) , Java script ( JAV ) came from Brahmi….We can see the similarity in the SCRIPT.

   Letters Na ,na , Pa , Ya ,Va, Ha

   Tamil is spoken in South India state ( TAMIL Nadu ), Srilanka, Malaysia and Singapore.

   even “banget” is Javanese…

   “banget” means “very”, whereas Bahasa Indonesia already has “sangat”… but people prefer to use “banget” than “sangat”..

   don’t know why…

   “sanget” I believe in Inggil – Pak Mantri is bound to know

   When Suharto created a national language called Bahasa Indonesia, it was meant to unify the whole state towards independence, including that of the Outer Islands and not just the Java mainland. Fast forward 50+ years, and I still doubt this has been achieved.
