FORUM LINGKAR PENA
It is God’s gift for Indone
Taufiq Ismail
Writers
in Indonesia are numerous. In the last decade Indonesia is enlivened by
the emerging of writers under 30 years old and the growth of literature
pouches in Jakarta and many other cities.
One
of those considered as phenomenal was the rise of Forum Lingkar Pena
(FLP) in 1997. In a relatively short time, this organization with
branches in almost 30 provinces and overseas had about 5000 members
which most of them were females.
During
six years since it was established, this writer organization had
published more than 200 books which mostly were serious literary works,
teen fictions, and child stories. Neither persons nor institutions ever
supported sponsorship for FLP. This autonomy allowed FLP to write with
its consciences. Tempo newspaper, one of commanding Medias in Indonesia,
called FLP as a ‘Story Writer Manufacturer’!

Inclusive
FLP
is an inclusive organization. Its membership is opened for everybody
regardless their ethnicity or religion. A majority members of FLP is
actually muslim, however, their Islamic understandings are various.
There are some non-muslims joining FLP. Nevertheless, FLP members share
the same intentions: to share a light with their readers and consider
that writing activities are parts of religious services.
There
were young writers and writers’ candidates subsequently to be FLP
administrators. While there were no administrators yet in some local
regions, there were always FLP correspondents. The FLP administration
networks, in forms of branches and correspondences, spread widely in 29
points across Indonesia and 13 points in overseas.
The youngest FLP member currently is 7 years old and the oldest is 65 years old, although majority of them are 15-25 years old.
