The image shows a museum exhibit about the history of the Islamic press in Indonesia, specifically focusing on the period between the 19th and 20th centuries. The exhibit is located in Central Jakarta, Indonesia, at the coordinates -6.176 latitude and 106.822 longitude. The exhibit features two panels with text in both Indonesian and English. The left panel, titled “Pers Islam Abad ke-19 hingga ke-20 Masehi” (Islamic Press of the 19th-20th Century), describes the origins of Islamic press in Indonesia, starting with the publication of the first Islamic newspaper, “Wazir Indie,” in 1878 in Batavia (Jakarta). The text explains how, in the early 20th century, Islamic newspapers and magazines emerged in major cities across Indonesia, such as Padang, Surabaya, Solo, Yogyakarta, Bandung, Semarang, and Medan. It also lists several significant publications, including “Moetiara” (1936), “Panjiaran Amal” (1936), “Soeara MIAI” (1942), “Panji Masyarakat” (1959), and “Gema Islam” (1962), highlighting their roles in disseminating religious knowledge, promoting social and political awareness, and advocating for resistance against colonialism. The right panel, titled “Islamic Press in the 19th-20th Century,” echoes the information on the left panel, providing a more concise overview of the Islamic press's development. It emphasizes the role of Islamic publications in spreading Islamic teachings, education, and social and political awareness. The text also notes that many Islamic newspapers and magazines were actively involved in promoting nationalism and resistance against colonialism, with some even facing censorship or ban by the colonial authorities. The exhibit is displayed on a dark, textured wall, showcasing both panels with clear, white text, highlighting the importance of the Islamic press in shaping Indonesian history and society.
