MUI

The abbreviation MUI stands for "Mintanya Uang Insentif" (in English it would be: "Asking for Incentive Money) which describes someone's anxiety while asking for or waiting for a cash incentive as a reward for their relatively insignificant work. In Indonesia, the word "MUI" has become an adjective that is often used satirically or ironically, and sometimes just as a joke. This idiom if translated into English, it could be described as something like "anxiously awaiting when asking for a small reward," but its use in Indonesian culture has evolved beyond its literal meaning and taken on a more sarcastic or humorous tone.
“If you work, don't become an MUI! Work only a little but ask for more income. Is that money coming out of your father's breasts!?”
