Download or read book Practical Indonesian in a Week written by Restiany Achmad and published by Kesaint Blanc. This book was released on 2015-02-06 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Welcome to Indonesia! Indonesia is the home to approximately 240 million people, spread across more than 17,500 islands with at least 500 tribes, and more than 700 languages. With such diversity and a vast sea territory including many smaller islands, the Indonesian archipelago provides a rich and unique experience for you to explore. “Ladies and gentlemen, good morning... This is your opportunity,” said President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) in his speech during his first international diplomatic mission (APEC 2014). That pretty much reflects how we Indonesians want to open-up our country to you. In the past there have only been a limited number of resources available that provide a comprehensive, easy to use introduction to Indonesian language, and many of those efforts by foreign authors and publishers lack native insights and local cultural knowledge. Practical Indonesian in a Week was designed primarily to achieve these goals. First, the book was written by two smart and experienced Indonesian native expatriate tutors. Second, the book was designed using a structure that will help you to quickly understand the basics of Indonesian language and culture with plenty of practical examples. It has the same structure as the best-selling foreign language learning books published by Kesaint Blanc: The Praktis 1 Minggu series. The culture and language learning method that Practical Indonesian in a Week provides will be very helpful for you, say as an expatriate, a traveler, or even for short time visitors. It provides applicable information, useful vocabulary, practical conversation examples, daily grammar sections, and some exercises you can do to better understand the language. Nevertheless, its traveling & visiting themes will be a good companion for you while visiting the rich culture and Indonesia’s hospitable people. Practical Indonesian in a Week also provides an audio CD narrated by native speakers, so you can easily understand how to pronounce Indonesian words and expression provided by the book, not to mention getting yourself more acquainted to the new language sounds. Enjoy your stay in our beautiful country!

Download or read book Reluctant Intimacies written by Beata Świtek and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2016-09-01 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on seventeen months of ethnographic research among Indonesian eldercare workers in Japan and Indonesia, this book is the first ethnography to research Indonesian care workers’ relationships with the cared-for elderly, their Japanese colleagues, and their employers. Through the notion of intimacy, the book brings together sociological and anthropological scholarship on the body, migration, demographic change, and eldercare in a vivid account of societal transformation. Placed against the background of mass media representations, the Indonesian workers’ experiences serve as a basis for discussion of the role of bodily experience in shaping the image of a national “other” in Japan.
