In this paper, we report a survey of language resources in Indonesia, primarily of indigenous languages. We look at the official Indonesian language (Bahasa Indonesia) and 726 regional languages of Indonesia (Bahasa Nusantara) and list all the available lexical resources (LRs) that we can gathered. This paper suggests that the smaller regional languages may remain relatively unstudied, and unknown, but they are still worthy of our attention. Various LRs of these endangered languages are being built and collected by regional language centers for study and its preservation. We will also briefly report its presence on the Internet.
