I would hope the hyphenation is different, since Sami is a Uralic language, and Swedish is Indo-European. I would expect the hyphenation patterns for Sami to be more similar to Finnish than to Swedish. (My background is in IE, rather than Uralic, so I may well be wrong.)

That makes sense. Bahasa Indonesia simply means "The language of Indonesia", so it is equivalent to Indonesian.
