I feel this is a good enough equivalent. Looks like no Indonesian expression can equal phrase in question. But "good enough" is more than enough I guess ... :0

neutral  Michael Crowe: hmm, this is more akin to 'on the other hand'; used with comparison of a previous point. 'on another note' is usually used to introduce alternative arguments to support an overall discourse. i just don't know what it is in indonesian :)

tentang hal lain lagi


Explanation:
Di sini kalau orang lagi ngobrol, tiba-tiba mau ganti subjek sering juga pakai on a different note. Ini sifatnya agak colloquial kalau ingin mengganti pokok bahasan secara mendadak. Sayangnya contoh yang saya temukan dalam bahasa Prancis!

Pada gagasan/pemikiran/pendekatn lain (yang berbeda)


Explanation:
Dengan Asumsi konteksnya serupa

Bila diperhatikan pada surat terbuka di bawah dalam paragraf pertama si penulis tampaknya dalam kebimbangan dengan suatu cara penanggulangan masalah dan efek dari penggunaan cara tersebut

Pada paragraf kedua ia mengajukaan suatu solusi untuk masalah yang sama dengan gagasan/pemikiran/pendekatan yang berbeda

Subject: scale insects

I've got an infestation of scale insects on my Nepenthes X
'coccinea', and despite picking them off by hand several times they
keep returning. Anyone know if it's safe to use an emulsion or meths on Neps or should I just carry on trying to manually remove them? I just hope they don't spread to my other plants...

On a different note, I've built a terrarium fitted with those low-energy fluorescent bulbs that are being marketed as replacements for regular incandescent bulbs - ( 23W bulbs producing 1500 lumen, ) and I'm trying it out with some surplus Drosera and Dionaea ( ~6000 lux on a 16 hour cycle. ) I'll post a progress report in a few weeks / months when the plants have adjusted - I don't know what the spectrum is like, but any deficiencies should show up by then. They're a hell of a lot cheaper than grow bulbs so I'm keeping my fingers crossed. Anyone else ever tried these?

Happy growing,

Peter
