Welcome to “Indonesian Wonder,” a daily segment featuring tourism, culinary arts, fine arts and culture from various regions across Indonesia. In today’s edition, we will invite you to visit Batu Kapal beach in Maluku province.
Batu Kapal beach is located at Liliboi village, West Leihitu sub-district in Central Maluku regency. Although the location does not cover Ambon city, the capital of Maluku province, this place is still one land with Ambon city. To go to Batu Kapal Liliboi beach or more known with the name Batu Lobang beach is not too far from the center of Ambon city. From Pattimura airport, it takes around 20 minutes by motor vehicles. Batu Kapal beach is called with that name because its shape is like the bridge of a ship. The bridge of a ship is the room or platform from which the ship can be commanded. Road to Batu Kapal beach is really smooth. Besides, the scenery of the beauty of the tourism object at the right and left side makes you amazed. But you must pay attention on sign board to Batu Kapal beach because the sign board is not big, only 60X20 centimeters with writing Batu Kapal Liliboi beach and hanged near a hut. The hut is gateway to enter the beach. The entrance ticket to Batu Kapal beach is worth Rp 5000 for adults and Rp. 3000 for kids. From the hut, you can go down the stairs around 250 meters. The beach is divided into two parts, namely inside and outside Kapal beach. After going down the stairs, you will find part of outside of the beach. Here, there is no white sand but only stones and blue ocean. If you want to be relaxed, the outside of the beach is the right place. Here, you can sit while enjoying the beauty of the scenery. From outside of Batu Kapal beach, you can see big stone which looks like a ship. The part which is seen clearly, is the bridge and a hole which is like a window of the ship. Batu Kapal beach is a beach which is surrounded by cliff and located in the ship. To access inside of Batu Kapal beach is certainly quite difficult. Because you have to climb and to creep. After arriving at the inside of the beach, you can find a pool. Here, you can swim without being afraid of being swept away by the waves. The place which is surrounded by cliff, makes waves at the beach calm. Water in here is so clear and its depth starting from 30 centimeters until 2 meters. But you must be careful because the stones are quite sharp. This place is not suitable for relaxing because there is no place for sitting and taking a rest. If you want to go to Batu Kapal beach early morning, we suggest you to bring your own food and beverage because stalls are open at late afternoon. So, set your time to visit Ambon and to go to Batu Kapal beach.
President Joko Widodo established ‘Siber and State Encryption –BSSN’. This body was formed through Presidential Regulation No. 53/2017 which was then revised to be Presidential Decree -Perpres No. 133/2017. In the regulation, Head of the BSSN and his deputy are directly responsible to the President. The threat in cyberspace is an infinite threat. A serious threat to cyber-terrorism is the threat of terrorism and warfare via cyberspace.
In regard to the establishment, President Joko Widodo said that the existence of the BSSN is very important and in the future, it is needed by the state, especially in anticipating the rapid development of cyber-crime in the world. In addition, the threats are increasingly diverse from the development of cyber abroad. So, Indonesia must immediately respond the challenge.
Previously, Marshal Hadi Tjahjanto in presenting his vision and mission before Commission I of the House of Representatives –DPR said that terrorism, the threat of war, and conflict are global challenges that need anticipating. Among the possible threats, Hybrid war is the one that combines conventional, irregular, and cyber wars. Marshal Hadi also said that on one hand, the rapid development of information technology is also increasingly supporting the movement of individuals or groups of terrorism to realize their interests. On the other hand, cyber warfare must also be a major consideration in the implementation of national defense and security functions.
Meanwhile, during the discussion of Policy Paper of Indonesian Cyber Diplomacy: Now and Later, November 2017, in Yogyakarta, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs declared that cyber diplomacy is absolutely necessary to respond to the challenges and problems arising from the development of cyber technology that cannot be separated from millennial communities nowadays. In this regard, Head of the Center for Policy Review and Development of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Fikry Cassidi said that nationally the cyber-technology challenge is well responded by the government. He views that the policy paper is prepared to support national policy in the field of cyber by contributing ideas on defining the position and strategy of Indonesian cyber diplomacy.
The technology of the virtual world is growing rapidly without a clear boundary. Indeed, the government of Indonesia should respond and be pro-active in facing cyber governance through multilateral and regional forums. Without the regulation and legal basis for addressing cyberspace, Indonesia will be powerless in its efforts. At present, almost all aspects use cyber technology in the activity. Moreover, the growth of the Internet and information technology has increased more than eight times since 2000 with more than 3 billion users. Based on the growth and development, colonization and crime can now happen not only in the real world, but also through the virtual world. Therefore, without clear legal basis, the handling of cyber threats and other devices will threaten the existence of the state, not only in terms of security, economy but also socio-culture.

Tobati Language originates from the people living around Yotefa Bay or Jayapura Bay, Jayapura City, Papua Province. Currently, the speakers of Tobati language are spreading in three districts in Papua Province, namely South Jayapura, Abepura, and Muara Tami. The number of Tobati speakers in 1984 was 800, and 600 in 1999. However, the number of speakers is now decreasing due to influence of other languages. Even, the speakers of Tobati language are predicted to remain only 500 people whom all of them are elderly. Therefore, the Tobati language is categorized as "seriously endangered language". |

The characters of Tobati language use the same ones with Indonesian or Latin. However, there are several characters unavailable in Tobati language such as x, q, v, and z. Another uniqueness of Tobati language is its clause and sentence structure. If Indonesian structure consists of subject-predicate-object, the Tobati language uses subject-object-predicate. |

In Indonesia in one day, there are 4 concepts of time, namely, pagi or morning, siang or early afternoon, sore or late afternoon, and night. Greetings given will be adjusted with these times. You can say “Selamat pagi” (Good morning) in the morning but only until around 11 am. During the day, from 11 am until approximately 3 pm you can say “Selamat siang”(good afternoon). But late in the afternoon from 3pm to around 5 or 6 pm, you would say “Selamat sore” (good afternoon). After that, the greeting will be only ”Selamat malam”. There is no differentiation between good evening, and good night. However, all the greetings are usually said to people you don’t know well or in an official situation. To answer, you can repeat the greetings as they are given, such as “Selamat pagi” (good morning) or simply say “Pagi” (morning), “Siang”(afternoon), “Sore” (afternoon) or “Malam”(evening/night).
That was today’s edition of Let's Speak Bahasa Indonesia. Hopefully, it can be useful for those of you who want to know more about Bahasa Indonesia. Let's meet again tomorrow with a different topic.
