In the discussion of borrowing (in the history / causes sections), would like to see something more like:
Language, nature of contact with Bahasa Indonesia, domains of borrowing with examples,

then English –when?– as global language–example?? etc etc

then portugese– when?–by trading–example…

In the discussion of impact you could either:
