🇵🇭 “Mahal kita!” ❤️
🇮🇩 “How much?” 💸

Wait... why did that go wrong? 😭

In Tagalog, mahal can mean love / dear.
In Bahasa, mahal means expensive.

So when someone from the Philippines says “Mahal kita”, they're saying “I love you.” ❤️

Meanwhile, an Indonesian might hear mahal and think...
“How much does it cost?” 💀

Same word. Different meaning. 🌏

Stay safe Seablings!

Forest and land fires are once again a serious threat to Kalimantan. On August 19, 2026, thousands of hotspots were detected, and dense smoke haze impacted air quality, public activities, and even transportation.

The affected area reached 33,837 hectares, while the smoke and fires also threatened the habitat of Kalimantan’s endemic animals.

This isn’t just a fire issue, but also an environmental, health, and ecosystem-wide issue. It’s time for us to care and work together to monitor forest and land fire management in Kalimantan by @southeastconnect
