Labodalih Sembiring

Bekabuluh is Labodalih Sembiring, a freelance features reporter for English-language publications; a writer of fictions in English and Indonesian; an amateur photographer; a translator with Ganggang Biru Language Consulting; a Creative Writing teacher at Gadjah Mada University; and a gardener at his rooftop. Yes, he can’t stay still. Some elders believe it’s because mommy kept a pet monkey when she had him. He is also a man who loves the Indonesian archipelago: its peoples, cultures, and nature. He writes about them on bekabuluh.com. He writes about feng shui and holistic living in Indonesian on another blog: Somethin8fishie.
