문화적 배경

The concept of 'tahun ini' is often tied to the 'Mudik' tradition, where millions travel home at the end of the year or during Lebaran. During 'Imlek' (Chinese New Year), 'tahun ini' refers to the new zodiac animal. The 'New Year' for students starts in July, so 'tahun ini' in a school context might mean the academic year 2024/2025. In Bali, 'tahun ini' includes the celebration of Nyepi, the day of silence, which follows the Saka calendar.
