Wilayah is also used in Indonesia. I'm not clear whether it's a general or specific term.

Okay, Meursault2004 has confirmed it's a general term.

I agree with Meursault2004 that this part doesn't belong: "Wilayah dependensi are dependend areas in indonesian. Wilayah yang dipertentangkan are disputed territories." This is because it appears to be a translation, rather than official terms for levels of government of divisions of area - Indonesian speakers see Wilayah dependensi.

I replaced it with "In Indonesian wilayah means area, region or regional, but does not refer to a level of government."

fine :-)) , well done to leave the note in the article, so in future mistakes with respect to indonesian usage are less likely. Tobias Conradi (Talk) 9 July 2005 10:14 (UTC)
