Today is a much-needed day off for people in Indonesia and in many other countries all across the world. Labor Day<\/strong> (Hari Buruh<\/em>) falls on May 1st in most countries (except for the US, which celebrates in September). We already introduced Labor Day in Indonesia<\/a> last year, so go back and read that post to learn a bit about the history of the holiday and the fight for working people in the country. Today, we’re going to honor all the workers out there by learning some job titles in Indonesian.<\/p>\n

\"Cheers

Cheers to all the hardworking people in Indonesia.<\/p><\/div>\n

\nApa pekerjaan anda?<\/h2>\n

\nSaya bekerja sebagai…<\/h2>\n

OR<\/h2>\n

I’m a\/an…
\nSaya…<\/h2>\n
