This paper was generally intended to analyse the lecturers' competence in writing their scientific works published in a target reputable international journal (RIJ). The analysis focused on the FCL (Format, Content, and Language), including the submitter's obedience in using "Format" (template), "Content"(IMRaD) and "Language" in principle. Several (95) articles submitted by lecturers worldwide to the research target RIJ were analysed. The data were grouped into two categories, namely the raw data (manuscripts that have not been reviewed) and the ready data (the manuscripts have been completely reviewed and resubmitted to the journals' chief editors). The ready data, then, were analysed descriptively based on the defined criteria. The research procedure was performed as follows: (1) raw data provision; (2) defining criteria of assessment (namely content and communication) by using the journal review template; (3) raw data accurately reviewed; (4) analysing review results; (5) data validation; and (6) judgement. The result of judgement was then defined as the research findings. This study reveals that among the investigated 95 articles submitted to the target RIJ, 41 articles consistently fulfilled the demanded template, 21 inconsistently fulfilled, and 33 articles did not implement the template at all. The findings are expected to contribute both as reference enrichment and for policy-making for the relevant parties connected to the related appearing issues in future research.
