Abstract :
The research discusses about the representation of Chinese-Indonesian in the Jakarta Post online news media in 2014-2019. Chinese-Indonesians have been through long way of discrimination. Referring to the previous study done by Hoon (2007), Post Soeharto era is the revival of Chinese-Indonesian. However, the anti-Chinese sentiment arises again in 2014- 2019 and it worries Chinese-Indonesian. The main purpose of the research is to be able to sketch how Chinese-Indonesian is represented in the Jakarta Post. In order to reach the purpose of the research, the research applies the three?dimensional theory by Fairclough (1995) which is about textual analysis, discursive practice analysis, and socio-cultural analysis. The research is also assisted by Sketch Engine tool. Sketch Engine tool is a tool for doing Corpus Linguistics analysis which is about Concordance and Collocation. Further since the analysis needs an in depth analysis of each words that construct meaning, the research applies descriptive qualitative method to overcome the problem. The result of the analysis shows how Jakarta Post news media describe Chinese?Indonesian ethnic. The findings suggest that Chinese-Indonesian is constructed as economically minded community and target of racial discrimination. The findings also suggest Chinese-Indonesians are given a freedom to express themselves in a platform by the Jakarta Post to distribute their fidgetiness through article in the Jakarta Post. Lastly, the research figures out that when the word of ?business? is overused, it could lead the systemic racism. The research reveals that constructing Chinese-Indonesian as a target of racial discrimination is a prevention act of racial discrimination by the Jakarta Post. Keywords: Chinese-Indonesian, corpus linguistics, critical discourse analysis, representatio
