Alphabet is called alfabet or abjad in Indonesia. Alphabet in Indonesia is similar to english alphabet. The difference lies only in the pronunciation.
Unlike in english, in Bahasa you can count on every letter to always sound the same (except for vowel 'e', consonant 'k' and some diphthongs which we will learn later) in any words. In English, 'g' in 'game' is pronounced differently from 'g' in 'magic'. In Bahasa, it's always the 'g' as in 'game' , 'go', 'greet', 'magazine', 'magnet', 'logo', etc.
