Some postings are in Indonesian, others in English. Usually the language of the postings is apparent from the title, but not always. Often the title also reflects the category of the posting -- such as -L (opinion and analysis, mostly in Indonesian), news, views, doc(ument)s, issues, or region (e.g. Timor, Sumatra, etc). The title sometimes includes the author's name or the acronym of the news source from which the message came (e.g., SMH for Sydney Morning Herald, JKTP for the Jakarta Post ...)
