shift


Explanation:
Depend on context,

Sometime 'mutasi' in Indonesia has negatif konotation. Most people (Indonesian) do not want 'dimutasi' due to frequently dimutasi to suburb or dimutasi due to his/her poor capability (IMHO)

shift
1 a : to change place, location, or residence *actual farm migrants, up against it, shift from one place to another Russell Lord* b : to change position : move about *interrupted her by shifting heavily in his chair Scott Fitzgerald*
