Significado
Reminding someone about something.
Contexto cultural
Reminding others is seen as a sign of care (perhatian). It is not considered annoying like it might be in some Western cultures. In Java, people often use the local version 'Ojo lali' to create a sense of kinship and warmth. On social media, 'Jangan lupa bahagia' (Don't forget to be happy) is a very popular hashtag and caption, reflecting a modern focus on mental health. In Indonesian business culture, 'Jangan lupa' is often used to follow up on 'Janji' (promises) because verbal agreements are highly valued.

Don't Overuse with Bosses
If you say 'Jangan lupa' too much to your superior, you might sound like you're nagging them.
