Djawa Tengah
Djawa Tengah was a major Malay language peranakan Chinese (Chinese Indonesian) daily newspaper in Semarang from 1909 to 1938. In the 1930s the paper also put out a monthly magazine called Djawa Tengah Review.
Its editorial line was moderately Chinese nationalist and critical of the Dutch Chinese Officer system.[1] According to historian Leo Suryadinata, by the late 1920s the paper shifted its political line and became more Indies-oriented.[2]
During the 1930s the journalist and historian Liem Thian Joe joined the editorial staff of the paper and published a serialized version of his history of Semarang, Riwajat Semarang 1416–1931 in Djawa Tengah Review between March 1931 and July 1933.[3]
