Indonesia is known as a diversified country because of its multi-ethnicity and that its government proceeds with economic development by positive introduction of foreign capital. Under this situation, the mass media have a great role for national integration through a unified system of broadcasting of the national TV (TVRI). I will describe how the state organizes national information flow by a content analysis of TV news program of TVRI. The primary role of TV broadcasting in Indonesia is to symbolize the state motto and goals;"Unity in Diversity"or"They are many, They are one"as the motto, the Panchasila or five principles as state philosophy and national economic development as the goal. The government is regulating production of TV news program exclusively to TVRI, and commercial broadcasts are required to telecast the news programs. Therefore, people can only watch programs for getting national and international news controlled by the state except for the rich who can watch foreign TV programs like CNN through satellite networks. So, we regard TVRI's news program as very important in constructing the national information environment. In order to make a study of the structure of TVRI's news program, I tried to analyze its contents. The programs which I selected as objects of analysis are Berita Nasional or National News and Dunia dalam Berita or World News, and both of these are the most popular news programs and telecast in all TV channels as mentioned above. I compared issues of national news with those of foreign news, and analyzed type of scene or topic and frequency of VIP's presence in national news. (Because some national news are also broadcast in Dunia dalam Berita, I had to regroup all news items from two programs into two categories: national news and foreign news.) Results of analysis showed that national news are inclined toward issues on development or economy. By the contrast, foreign news stories are more political. National news tended to adopt ceremonial scene. In half of national news items broadcast, VIP were present. I tried to consider the functions of TV news in Indonesia on the basis of the results of analysis. These are functions enhancing national prestige, mobilizing people into development, introducing the cultural diversity of Indonesia, and other functions without governmental implications. As a hypothetical conclusion, this study points out that there is a political tendency to be more open to foreign information but to toughly control information flow of domestic situation as shown in the structure of TV news.
