THE ORIGIN OF INDONESIAN LANGUAGE AND HISTORY
Reasons for Malay to Become Indonesian
At the time of the position of the Dutch Nation, Malay had become the lingua franca (the language of association) in the archipelago. Malay itself is actually an Austronesian language which is a branch of the languages of the Sundanese and Sulawesi tribes. The existence of the Malay language itself has spread from the southeast coast of Sumatra Island as the territory of the Srivijaya kingdom which controlled trade at that time, to the Malay kingdom in Jambi Province.
The Malay language began to split around the 19th century into Indonesian, which at that time was a nation of the Dutch East Indies and the Malay Association of Land which is now Malaysia.
