Malay term or phrase: berbelanja untuk penjagaan perubatan
It seems to me that this means "earn wages to pay for medical care", but all the dictionary entries I can find for "berbelanja" give only "go shopping" or "spend money". Can anyone help out, please?

Explanation:
In Malay, berbelanja means to spend
(it's "to go shopping" in Indonesian, but that doesn't fit the context and you're not translating from Indonesian)
