if I am not mistaken "Borg" refers to "Little Castle"
There are two little castle near Malioboro street. First, on the right is Dutch Residence (opposite of Vredeburg fort). Second, on the top is Sultan Castle.

According to novelist Pramoedya Ananta Toer, in one of his novel, Bogor derived from dutch word "Buitenzorg", Raden...
Other dutch-indo words in javanese are: "pit" (bicycle) from "fiets", also part of bike such as "stang" (bar), "pedal" from (peddle). And "sepur" (train) from "spoor". And the "monumental" on word-invention in javanese is the naming of solonese traditional dress of "beskap" that derived from dutch word "beschaafd" (civilized). That's just to differ or "mockery" to the older style, mataraman style of Yogyakartanese that called "sorjan" (this is original javanese word). Solonese, in daily mockery often says, they are more "beschaafd" than Yogyakartanese. (Please, don't be angry, for the sake of keris knowledge...)
