=== In Indonesia ===
Indonesia, having multiple regional and native languages, uses the Latin script for writing its [[Indonesian language|own standard of Malay]] in general. Nonetheless, the Jawi script does have a regional status in [[Malay Indonesian|native Malay areas]] such as [[Riau]], [[Riau Islands Province|Riau archipelago]], [[Jambi]], [[South Sumatra]] (i.e [[Palembang language|Palembang Malay language]]), [[Aceh]], and [[Kalimantan]] (i.e. [[Banjar language]]).<ref name="riaudailyphoto.com">{{in lang|id}} [http://www.riaudailyphoto.com/2012/02/tulisan-arab-melayu-bagian-dari.html TULISAN ARAB MELAYU BAGIAN DARI KHAZANAH BUDAYA RIAU].</ref><ref>Bagian Kesenian Bara Ai Kesusasteraan Indonesia Catatan-Catatan Tentang Amir Hamza:Bagian Kesenian Kementerian Pendidikan dan Kebudayaan, Yogyakarta: 1955.</ref> This is due to the fact that regional and native languages are compulsory studies in the basic education curriculum of each region (examples include [[Javanese language|Javanese]] for Javanese regions, [[Sundanese language|Sundanese]] for Sundanese regions, [[Madurese language|Madurese]] for Maduranese regions, and Jawi for Malay regions).<ref name="riaudailyphoto.com"/> Jawi script is widely used in Riau and Riau Island province, where road signs and government building signs are written in this script.<ref>{{cite act |type=Governor Regulation |index=46 |date=2018 |legislature=Governor of Riau Province |title=Peraturan Gubernur Riau Nomor 46 Tahun 2018 Tentang Penerapan Muatan Budaya Melayu Riau Di Ruang Umum |trans-title= |url=https://jdihn.go.id/files/224/Pergub_No_46_Tahun_2018_S.PDF |language=id}}</ref> A sister variant called [[Pegon script|Pegon]] is used to write Javanese, Sundanese, and Madurese and is still widely used in traditional religious schools across [[Java]], but has been supplanted in common writing by the [[Latin alphabet]] and, in some cases, [[Javanese script]] and [[Sundanese script]].
