Penyalahgunaan perkataan tentatif

This posting has not much to do with actuarial science or actuarial finance.  Ever since I left the profession I have been keeping in touch with professionals, students and graduates of the field of actuarial science. 

Recently, I was faced with an issue that I have been taking up while I was at the university, which is the use of the phrase "tentatif program" by students and staff of the university.  Apparently, the phrase "tentatif program" is very widely used by those who are organizing programs, to mean the details of the program, giving times of starting of each activity.

I stumble onto a blog that also discusses this issue: http://kptmbangi2u.blogspot.com/2011/02/tentatif-aturcara-sejak-bila.html?showComment=1400422501061#c4041026803376878138
