IDWest Java's provincial legislature has approved a proposal to rename the province 'Tatar Sunda,' meaning 'Land of Sunda,' which will now move to the next legislative stage. The final decision requires approval from the central government. The proposal aims to promote and preserve Sundanese culture by incorporating traditional names into administrative regions, tourist sites, and public buildings. Supporters argue that the name change aligns with historical and cultural values and cite the successful renaming of South Sulawesi's capital as a precedent. The West Java administration has reviewed the proposal and awaits guidance from Governor Dedi Mulyadi.
