Paku (Bakau) is an Austronesian language spoken in four villages in the
East Barito Regency of
Central Kalimantan province,
Indonesia. It is closely related to the
Malagasy language spoken on
Madagascar. Most of the remaining speakers are also fluent in other languages. The use of the language is decreasing and speakers are increasingly shifting to
Ma'anyan, a lingua franca of East Barito.[2] In 2018, it was estimated there was about 50 speakers of the language in the villages of Tampa, Tarinsing, Bantei Napu, and Kalamus in the regency of East Barito.[1]
