I’m not sure if this will be of use to anyone but I have been researching the possibilities for Indonesian language tuition in Bali.
I think these relate to Bahasa Indonesian rather than Balinese language.
Presumably it’s the former that an expat needs to learn?
Despite my research, I’m not sure if I’ll take formal tuition. Might be better to get by in Bahasa Indonesian by talking and mixing with locals.
Govt policy on Bahasa Indonesia
The Jakarta Post
December 28, 2002
Expatriates working in Indonesia have expressed mixed reactions to the government's planned policy requiring them to speak in Bahasa Indonesia, a national language in Indonesia with some supporting the move and many others calling it unwise.
Minister Jacob said on Sunday that all foreigners working in Indonesia would soon have to understand and be able to communicate in Bahasa Indonesia.
The regulation will be discussed at the Cabinet level soon.
