i
Foreword

This, the Fourth Edition of the Blue Book, is the most up-to-date reference guide
to the abbreviations and acronyms used by the Indonesian government and its
institutions. With over 5000 references, and a strong focus on military
terminology, the Blue Book provides a unique resource for linguists and
researchers who seek to better understand the structure and character of the
Indonesian administration, especially its armed forces.

Mr Peter Ryan, who is the original author of the Blue Book, has given permission
for this current update to be compiled.

Noting that the Blue Book is a living document describing a living language,
contributions in the form of amendments and additions are welcomed, and should
be forwarded to:

Quick Guide to High-frequency Elements of
Military Abbreviations

The fact that most abstract nouns in Indonesian are formed with the kean, pe
an and peran affixes means that many abbreviations could have been in
danger of ending up as meaningless strings of Ps and Ks. This has led
Indonesians to abbreviate many specialist terms using whole syllables, or groups
of letters, from within the base-words of those words. The military have been
enthusiastic in extending this system to their terminology. This has some useful
side-benefits for the foreigner (and non-military native speakers) trying to wrestle
with abbreviated forms, namely that:

a. the abbreviated form often suggests the full form; and more importantly;

b. the less obvious contracted forms constitute a sort of code which, once
one is familiar with it, enables even rather fearsome-looking abbreviations
to be broken down fairly readily into their constituent parts and thus under-
stood.

For that reason, this quick guide to abbreviations has listed only the terms that are
abbreviated in this way (ie not those that are abbreviated by first letters, eg ABRI).
The list is not exhaustive, concentrating instead on the more commonly-used
ones; it also includes a number that are commonly used in the civilian world.

Users who make a point of getting familiar with the commonly-used abbreviations
in this Quick Guide, and constantly practise applying their knowledge to any
military (or other) abbreviations they come across, should very rapidly acquire the
ability to pull to pieces those abbreviations they see, without having to look up
the full abbreviation in the latter part of this dictionary.
