Abstract

Regarding the importance of language for specific purposes (LSP), especially in French for specific purposes (FSP), this study aims to analyze the needs of the Indonesian National Police (Polri) in learning French. This study is conducted at the Police Language School Jakarta involving four male police officers who work in some units such as Criminal Investigation (Reskrim) and Bhayangkara (Sabhara). This case study collected data through a questionnaire and semi-structured interview. Both are analyzed using content analysis of interview transcription and open-ended questions in questionnaire as well as mean values’ measurement of close-ended questions in questionnaire. The data obtained shows that speaking is the most important language skill for them. In addition, other skills such as listening, vocabulary, and intercultural communication also play significant roles related to their profession. Furthermore, they seem interested to study French for special competencies such as in public services, traffic, and crime domains. It is expected that this study will be beneficial for the teaching of French for police officers with assignment in the Francophone countries.
