In the fourth and fifth photos, the woman you see in the photo is named Ms. Jeannie Lesawengan, S.S., M.Hum., a linguist, researcher, and civil servant at the North Sulawesi Provincial Language Centre. At the time, she was explaining us about the UKBI. I know her quite good.

This training is aimed at various groups, from teachers, students, civil servants, to writers and translators. At the event I attended on 14-15 April, 2026, the aim of this event was for the younger generation, including me. They taught us many things.

Organised by the Agency for Language Development and Cultivation, this programme is closely related to UKBI (Uji Kemahiran Berbahasa Indonesia) which I posted in the previous post. Always, at PKBI events there will be an explanation about UKBI. Usually the training is two days.

I'm at the North Sulawesi Provincial Language Centre to participate in PKBI event. PKBI (Peningkatan Kemahiran Berbahasa Indonesia) is a training programme, like a short course, to train people to use good and correct Indonesian language according to standards.

Because this doll is not for sale because it is the official mascot of the agency, we at home will take good care of this doll. Hopefully with this doll I might be able to have a job in the Ministry of Education and Culture or perhaps in the Agency for Language Development and Cultivation itself.

The writing on this doll is "trigatra bangun bahasa", a principle of national language policy made by the agency that contains three pillars: Utamakan Bahasa Indonesia, Lestarikan Bahasa Daerah, Kuasai Bahasa Asing (Prioritise Indonesian Language, Preserve Local Languages, Master Foreign Languages).

This Bebe doll itself, as you can see in the photo, belongs to my sister. This was given by the head of the North Sulawesi Provincial Language Centre, Mr. Januar Pribadi, S.I.P, M.M. Honestly, I didn't expect that he would give this doll to my little sister, I was there at that time too (it was an event and my sister attended the event, I will post it later).

This is Bebe, the mascot of the Agency for Language Development and Cultivation (Badan Pengembangan dan Pembinaan Bahasa), an agency under the Ministry of Education and Culture (Kementerian Pendidikan dan Kebudayaan) of Indonesia which responsible for standardising and regulating the Indonesian language as well as maintaining the local or regional languages of Indonesia.
