Why learning Indonesian language is beneficial to you

Our basic topic is “INDONESIAN SHORTCUTS”, and we will be examining that in detail, particularly why improving our skills at speaking foreign language is so important in the future.

You see, there are about 23 million native Indonesian speakers and about 156 million speak it as a second language, this is according to 2010 census. Do you know that in Britain primary schools are implementing a new curriculum to encourage students to learn a foreign language?

I reckon that Britain understands advance knowledge and wisdom to foresee what’s coming in the future. To say it wisely “a person with a second or third language builds deeper ingrain intellectual mind”.
