Comedian Indro: Arswendo Atmowiloto’s Thinking Influenced the Journey of Comedy Group Warkop DKI
JAKARTA, (PR).- After paying his respects at the home of the late Paulus Arswendo Atmowiloto in Jakarta on the morning of Saturday 20 July 2019, comedian Indro Warkop said that the senior journalist and writer was a humorist and lived the values he believed in consistently.
“There was a message in his jokes, there were things that he really wants to convey implicitly. Bro Wendo was a consistent figure, he was a great artist,” said Indro, as reported by the official government wire service Antara.
Even though the two didn’t always each other all the time, Indro still remembers Arswendo’s concern for the “Warkop DKI” comedy group.
“In the past he would often provide us with information, and asked Warkop to take shots at “Uncle” (meaning the leader of the New Order government),” said Indro, adding that the two of them would always talk in the Javanese language.
For Indro, Arswendo was a figure whose thinking at the time frequently influenced Warkop’s journey.
“We grew up together at that time, and we were used to like contributing to each other,” said Indro, who arrived to pay his respects wearing a hat bearing the words #beatkanker.
Indro Warkop was one of the arts workers who arrived quite late at the family home at Damai Street, Kompas Complex, South Petukangan, Pesanggrahan Jakarta. He arrived at around 12.30 local time and went straight in to the home to pay his last respects to the late Arswendo, and to meet his family.
Paulus Arswendo Atmowiloto, a writer, senior journalist, and author of the television series “The Cemara Family”, died at the age of 70 at his home on Friday around 17.38 local time.
Arswendo’s body will later be moved to Saint Matthew’s Church, Bintaro, for a requiem mass on Saturday at 10.00 local time. Following this, Arswendo’s body will be laid to rest at the San Diego Hills cemetery in Karawang. ***

Javanese manuscripts in the Sloane collection – Asian and African studies blog, The British Library
… In addition to two manuscripts in Malay, Sloane owned five items from Java, which though fragmentary in nature encompass a wide variety of languages and scripts (Javanese, Old Javanese, Lampung and Chinese) and writing materials (palm leaf, bamboo and paper), and range from commercial documents to a primer of religious law. Sloane’s Javanese manuscripts, which are of interest not only for their diversity but also for their relatively early date, have now all been digitised and can be read on the Digitised Manuscripts website…
