意思
Keep going regardless of criticism.
文化背景
In Indonesia, calling someone an 'anjing' (dog) is a very strong insult. However, using this proverb is considered a 'halus' (refined) way to imply someone is being annoying without directly calling them a name. The 'kafilah' (caravan) is a symbol of trade, survival, and community in desert cultures. It represents a force that cannot be easily diverted from its path. Indonesian presidents, from Soeharto to Jokowi, have used this phrase to signal that they will not be swayed by political 'noise' or demonstrations. Indonesian 'netizens' are known for being very vocal. This proverb is the number one defense used by celebrities against 'cyber-bullying.'
Use it for 'Haters'
This is the perfect Indonesian equivalent for 'Haters gonna hate.' Use it in your Instagram captions to look like a pro.
Don't overdo it
If you use this too often, you might seem like someone who never listens to anyone. Balance is key!

The 'Anjing' factor
Remember that 'anjing' is a swear word. Only use it in this specific proverb or when talking about actual pets. Never call a person 'anjing' directly.
