Tentang Sekolah Pah Tsung

Pah Tsung School was first established at the beginning of Indonesia's independence around 1945. This idea started from a group of people of Chinese descent who saw many children and the younger generation who were not in school at that time.

For this reason, a high school was opened where the majority of the students were of Chinese descent. The name Pah Tsung stands for Pah Tsen Tsung Sio, where Pah Tsen means Batavia City and Tsung Sio means Middle School. Thus, Pah Tsung means a Middle School which is located in the City of Batavia. Then because Batavia changed its name to Jakarta, the school changed its name to Yah Tsung, an abbreviation of Yah Tsen Tsung Sio. Yah Tsen means the city of Jakarta. Hence, Yah Tsung means Middle School which is located in Jakarta City.
