Negara Indonesia kaya dengan keberagaman. Sebanyak sekitar 5% dari penduduk Indonesia beretnis tionghoa, dan tradisi perayaan tahun baru imlek menjadi salah satu hari raya yang ikut memeriahkan banyak daerah di tanah air Indonesia. Hal ini menunjukkan bahwa Indonesia merupakan negara demokrasi yang saling menghargai dan mencintai keberagaman. Sekalipun beragam dalam berbagai latar belakang, tapi Indonesia tetap satu. Itulah "Bhinneka Tunggal Ika," yang menjadi semboyan bangsa Indonesia yang tertulis pada lambang negara. Mari kita mengenal tradisi dari perayaan tahun baru imlek. MERDEKA! 

Indonesia is rich in diversity. About 5% of the population in Indonesia is of Chinese descent, and the tradition of celebrating the Chinese New Year becomes one of the festive occasions that enlivens many regions in the archipelago. This indicates that Indonesia is a democratic country that values and embraces diversity. Despite the diversity in various backgrounds, Indonesia remains united. That is "Bhinneka Tunggal Ika," the national motto of Indonesia written on the state emblem. Let's get to know the traditions of celebrating the Chinese New Year. MERDEKA!

Disagreeing with people is an important and healthy part of working on a team towards shared goals. The challenge is therefore, how can we do this in a way that protects and even strengthens our professional relationships? It would be great if the only thing we had to do at work was to agree with people. If everyone around us had great ideas, and if our colleagues' suggestions always seemed like the best things to do. However, this is not the case.  A lot of people worry that if they disagree with their co-workers then this could upset them or damage their professional relationships. However, if we do it right, disagreeing with colleagues when it’s appropriate can be great for your team, your career, and your reputation at work.

Today we’re going to hear some tips and ideas for how to disagree with your colleagues, we’ll hear some great natural and native sounding vocabulary that we can use to do this, and then we’ll finish off with some challenges for you. Including a speaking challenge and a vocabulary quiz to see what you’ve remembered from today’s podcast. As always, if you find this podcast useful and helpful please feel free to follow me on iTalki, it really helps me out. OK, with that said let’s get started.
