“MENDUNIAKAN BAHASA INDONESIA MELALUI BIPA”

INCULS, Fakultas Ilmu Budaya, Universitas Gadjah Mada

Kamis, 19 Oktober 2023

Yogyakarta, 16 Oktober 2023 – Seiring dengan semakin meluasnya pemakaian bahasa Indonesia serta menguatnya peran ekonomi, politik, diplomasi, dan kebudayaan Indonesia, semakin meningkat pula vitalitas bahasa Indonesia. Vitalitas bahasa Indonesia ini bukan hanya didukung dengan perannya sebagai bahasa resmi negara dan bahasa nasional, melainkan juga dalam peran sebagai bahasa internasional. Sebagai bahasa internasional, bahasa Indonesia semakin menunjukkan eksistensinya—tinggi, aman, dan luas pemakaiannya. Hal ini dibuktikan dengan adanya 428 lembaga penyelenggara pembelajaran BIPA yang tersebar di 52 negara. Berdasarkan hal tersebut, sudah selayaknyalah kita terus menggaungkan bahasa Indonesia dan mengembangkan fungsi dan perannya sebagai bahasa nasional Indonesia, bahasa resmi Indonesia, dan lebih lagi sebagai bahasa internasional.
