Betawi peopleBetawi people, or Betawis (Orang Betawi in Indonesian, meaning "people of Batavia"), are an Austronesian ethnic group native to the city of Jakarta and its immediate outskirts, as such often described as the native inhabitants of the city. They are the descendants of the people who inhabited Batavia (the colonial name of Jakarta) from the 17th century onwards. However, the term "native" itself is questionable, since it is probable that the Betawi people emerged in the 18th century as an amalgamation of various ethnic groups into Batavia.
SilatSilat is the collective term for a class of indigenous martial arts from the Nusantara and surrounding geocultural areas of Southeast Asia.

The word silat is used by Malay speakers throughout Southeast Asia, but is officially called Pencak silat in Indonesia.
