By the way, from the article: &quot;The 80,000 speakers of the Cia-Cia language are also being encouraged to use the script on the Indonesian island of Buton.&quot;<p>Many Koreans regard the whole Cia-Cia affair as a farce, or a misguided attempt to &quot;prove&quot; the excellence of our writing system by advertising it onto people who would really, really be better served by adopting the same character system as everyone else around them (that is, the Latin alphabet).<p>If you can read Korean, here&#x27;s a fascinating (though maybe biased) summary of the affair:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;namu.wiki&#x2F;w&#x2F;%EC%B0%8C%EC%95%84%EC%B0%8C%EC%95%84%EC%96%B4" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;namu.wiki&#x2F;w&#x2F;%EC%B0%8C%EC%95%84%EC%B0%8C%EC%95%84%EC%...</a><p>&gt; 한국인들은 과연 찌아찌아족을 위해 한글을 전파하고 있는 것인가, 아니면 한국인들 자신을 위해 전파하고 있는 것인가.  (Are Koreans teaching Hangul to the Cia-Cia for their benefit, or for the Koreans ourselves?)
