Corruption
and Indonesian Culture
Corruption has happened for many years and today it becomes a bad
culture in Indonesia for three reasons.
Most adult Indonesian or foreigners have known and admitted that
corruptions happen in many places. The daily newspapers, news programs on TV
and radio have reported corruptions are done everywhere, almost in all
departments or public services of this country. Corruptions happen in health,
education departments and banks. When we manage to get some documents in public
service offices, we usually need much money to pay. Manipulations happen
everywhere.
The actions to eliminate corruption are weak. The ever stronger
culture seems not to come to an end when the responsible institutions who have
to reinforce the justice today commit corruption. This is the worst.
Corruptions happen in police department, courts where judges, public
prosecutors, lawyers make deals to do corruption. All of us also heard in the
end of 2004, Probosutejo reported that he had bribed the Supreme Court, or
called Mahkamah Agung which becomes the highest level where the justice can be
obtained. Perhaps you have to try to come to the local courts and see what
happen there. You will see practices of bribery and other kinds of corruption.
Therefore, we can say that corruptions becomes our culture. Do you like it?
The citizens have no goodwill to fight against the corruption.
They create the situations in which people ahave opportunities to do
corruptions. The citizens like to break the rules because they are not
disciplined. For example, in the street when they drive a car or ride
motorcycle, they do not have the driving license or necessary documents. Then,
they are caught by the local policemen. To avoid more difficulties, they like
to bribe the officer. The officer let them go then. In other words, the
citizens and officers are the same, doing corruption together. If only the
people were critical, disciplined, and obey the rules, and willing to report
any wrong behaviors, this country will not be number one corrupting country in
the world.
Conclusion Based on the reasons, we can conclude that corruption
is becoming a bad culture in Indonesia if it is not ended soon by all of us. It
seems that there must be more severe penalty for the Corruptors. Do we still
care about the future of this country?
The Dangerous of Using Drugs
Everybody must pay attention of drugs. Drugs are
very dangerous for us. Why it is very dangerous for us? Because its can caused
harm to our body.
In terms of health, many organs in our body can be
harm because using drug. In general, the impact of using drug are can
unconscious, make us hallucinate, can harm our nerve, and cause addictive
effect. Beside that, using drugs can make the users depressed, liver disease,
schizophrenia, blockage of blood vessels, dehydration, optic nerve damage,
brain damage, and finally it can cause DEATH!
When viewed in terms of Islamic law, drugs are
forbidden. Because it is cause badness, self harm, debilitate. And Islam
proscribes all that can cause badness, self harm because it is included zhalim.
Also if we using drugs, it means we already do the forbidden things in Islam,
it means we sin. So, in terms of Islamic law, using drugs also dangerous.
Furthermore, if the users of drugs are teenagers,
it can endanger their future, and endanger their homeland, their country. From
the data, 32 percent of drugs users in Indonesia are teenagers, so, if many
teenagers –in this case Indonesia- use drugs, it can be endanger this country,
harm youth generation, whereas youths are nation expectation. If the youth
using drugs, our nation can be destroy!
So, from now on we must pay attention of drugs,
because it’s very dangerous, both in terms of health, religion (Islam),
nationality and state.
The Problem of Being Too Fat
Being too fat is commonly known as overweight or
obesity. It is simply defined as too much body fat inside. Overweight
potentially leads high risk of health problem.
Being too fat is recognized as a major factor for
heart disease. Due to the overweight, the heart will work harder. It can lead
to the heart attack. Furthermore, obesity potentially rises blood cholesterol
and blood pressure. In addition, being too fat can change the amount of sugar
in the blood. This will cause diabetes and other serous disease.
Beside all of that, being too fat is often avoided
by many young women. They said that becoming too fat will bother their physical
beauty appearance.
More serious studies are necessary to see the
effect of obesity. However it is clear enough that overweight is not good
enough for healthy life.
Do
you agree that music
is important in our life?
Yes I do, music has certain role completing our day to day
activities. Here are some reasons why music
is heard everywhere andanywhere. Music
is a way to express feelings.
When we fall in love, the kind of music we’d listen to would
be all about love. When we’re sad, we would go for
music that is melancholic in nature and immerse ourselves in the sadness. When
we’re happy, we’d choose songs with happy tunes too.
Song
can help to memorize the last experiences. A favorite song is a powerful
documentary. People with Alzheimer which are impaired the brain would remember
details about songs they were familiar with. For example, an elderly woman who
couldn’t even remember her husband’s name wouldremember the details of her favorite song; when it
was played, how it made her feel and things about the song that made it
especially memorable for her.
Further,
music can unite people for a cause and changes the world. A song with good
lyric and striking deep chord can stimulate the universal feeling of all people. We
can see it in the case of the famous and legendary Michael Jacson's Heal the
World. It can arouse humanism of a lot people in this world.So what would the
world be like without music? It would be lonely.
Conventionally,
students need book, pen, eraser, drawing book, ruler and such other stuff.
Additionally, in this multimedia era, students need more to reach their
progressive development. Students need mobile keyboards to record
every presented subject easily. Of course it will need more cost but it will deserve for its
function.
First, modern schools tend to
applyfast transferring knowledge because the school needs to catch the target
of curriculum. Every subject will tend to be given in demonstrative method.
Consequently students need extra media cover the subject. Since there is a
laptop on every students' desk, this method will help student to get better
understanding.
Secondly, finding an appropriate laptop is not difficult as it was. Recently
there is an online shop which provides comprehensive information. The
best is that the shop has service of online shopping. The students just
need to brows that online shop, decide which computer or laptop they
need, then complete the transaction. After that the laptop will be
delivered to the students' houses. That is really easy and save time and
money.
From all of that, having mobile
computer is absolutely useful for students who want to catch the
best result for their study. Buying laptop online is advisable because it will
cut the price. This online way is recommended since online shop also
provide several laptop types. Students just need to decide which
type they really need.
Why Exercise is Important
The majority of us claim that
we do not have time for exercise.
We feel too busy to do that. However, many expert said thatexercise has great role in making our body
healthy
Being
physically active offers many advantage. In physical reword, exercise can reduce weight then our body will
become fitter. Exercise is also believed to reduce stress
levels, improve sleep
patterns, and reduce the risk of heart disease, diabetes and some forms of cancer.
Beside physical advantage, exercise also brings good effects mentally. Due
to the fitter body, exercise can make us feel refreshed and happy
then we can increase our life quality and
expectancy.
How
can we do exercise while we are busy? Such question is
commonly found among us. Actually exercise can be done in simple ways. We can go
walking while shopping. In the office we can take stair rather than lift to run
up and down. Or we can go cycling while enjoy the leisure time.
Over
all, doing exercise is little bit difficult in busy life
but the little bit of exercise will help better.
Fast food nowadays is
considered a normal eating venture. People are not just eating out on special occasions or weekends
anymore. It means that all the time they mostly eat fast foods. However is fast
food good for
health?
Fast
food has its popularity in the 1940’s. Within a few years, fast-food operations
popped up everywhere. With the compelling rise in fast-food restaurants since
the 1940’s, oddly it started the rise in obesity and cancer during that same time period.
Fast
food is highly processed with a wide array of additives. To ensure fast food’s
low cost, the fast food products are
made with highly-processed ingredients to give it shelf-life, to hold
consistency, and to enhance flavor. Fast food is altered from its original
healthy form.
It
is not the calories
in fast food which damage
health and waistline. It is the chemical additives such as aspartame and MSG
(monosodium glutamate). Studies show that the chemical additives lead to weight
and disease issues.
So,
there is absolutely nothing nutritional about
fast food. Fast food simply feeds hunger and craving.
Why is Learning English
Important? Language is the mean of communication. Mostly groups of society have their own languages. Some of them
appear the top global languages. Most people in the world hear about English,
Arabic, and Mandarin. However English is the most global spoken language. Then
if a man wants to catch a global goal, he has to master English.
Everyone
recognize that English is an international language. English is used in writing
and speaking by many people all over the world. It can be either as a first or second
language. We even hear British, American, Australian, and even Singaporean English. Those various names
of English are used as the first language in those countries. Futhermore, some
countries have their own languages as a mother language but also use English
mostly in daily comunication.
Besides
usage in daily interaction, English is also used as a key to open doors leading
to scientific and technical knowledge. No wonder we find manual guides andinstructions of
many devices written in English. Even if we have a pack of instant noodle, we
will see the cooking instruction also written in English. This transfer of
science and technic will include many countries in economic, social and
politics developement.
Finaly,
the most easily seen in the importance of learning English is that most top
requirement in filling job opportunities is
the ability using English; active or passive. Job applicants who master English are more favourable
than ones who do not.
The
above facts prove that everybody needs to learn
English if he likes to greet the
global era.
Jakarta is the
second-worst place for expatriates to work in outside of the United States of
America, Canada and Western Europe. It is according to a recent report
published by Businessweek.
The Businessweek report ranked emerging markets that might be challenging to move into
due to their level of pollution, disease, political violence and availability of good and services.
The report ranked Jakarta second, just below lagos in Nageria
and above Riyadh
Saudi Arabia, saying the threat of violence from extremest, in
particular, was serious drawback to living in Jakarta.
Bombings targeting foreign interests in Jakarta,
such as the JW
Marriot hotel bombing in
2003, have been repeated elsewhere in the city.
The report said despite problem common to many developing cities
such as the risk of disease, poor sanitation, and excessive pollution,
Indonesia can be an enticing location.
In response, the Jakarta administration took the report
positively, saying it could spur the administration to improve its performance.
Before we are going to smoke, it
is better to look at the fact. About 50 thousands people die every year
in Britain as direct result of smoking. This is seven times as many
as die in road accidents. Nearly a quarter of smokers die because
ofdiseases caused by smoking.
Ninety percent of lung
cancers are caused by smoking. If we smoke five cigarettes a day, we are
six times more likely to die of lung cancer than a non smoker. If we
smoke twenty cigarettes a day, the risk is nineteen greater. Ninety five
percent of people who suffer of bronchitis are people who are
smoking. Smokers are two and half times more likely to die of heart disease
than non smokers.
Additionally, children of
smoker are more likely to developbronchitis and pneumonia. In one
hour in smoky room, non smoker breathes as much as substance causing cancer as
if he had smoked fifteen cigarettes.
Smoking is really good for tobacco
companies because they do make much money from smoking habit. Smoking however
is not good for every body else.
Opportunity in the
Global Financial Crisis
US. financial crisis and its
contagion to Europe and the rest of the world could also create new opportunity
for Indonesia in term of foreign direc investment and
the development of basic infrastructure.
As the US. financial crisis has now spread to Europe, the oil-rich
countries such as Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and Arab Emirate which have accumulated
hundreds of billion of Dollars in their foreign reserve, are now reviewing
their holding or investmentvehicle.
They are looking for more diversified investmentoutside
the US and Europe.
Because of unfavorable political developments in
Thailand and Malaysia over the past few months, Indonesia which has largely
Muslim population could become one of these oil-rich countries' favorite place
for foreign direct
investment. That wil be true if the conditions, legal and market infrastructure are conducive for
Islamic financial instruments.
The government had improved the legal framework with the recent actment of laws on
sharia banking and bonds. The long term nature of Islamic bonds could make them the most suitable investment instrument for Indonesia, as these bondsgrant an investor a share in an
asset along with the cash flows and
risks commensurate with such ownership.
The financial crisis that has gripped the globe and
weakening economic growth in the rest of the world will serve to the government
to accelerate the investment reform measures in order to grab the
hidden opportunity in the global crisis.

Gold has become a precious
metal to mankind since it was the dawn of
civilization. The nature of gold is
soft and malleable which people can make and easily change to any forms, even
it is done just by a simple technology. The beautiful golden and shiny color does not easily fade out. The form
of gold can be as jewelry, bar, or coin. Now days gold coin, such as gold IRA,
becomes an advantageous investment.
Gold is safe and profitable
for investment. In uncertain situations, many people are turning to gold
because gold has a more stable value and regarded as currency without
limitation assets. It is secure and can be cashed out at any time we need.
The Gold values tend to be stable; take a look an IRA gold discussion.
It is zero inflation effect. It is very rare that the gold
prices fell. Even every year, the gold price tends to increase.
Investments in the form of coins, it is famous
as gold coin, is more profitable if it is compared with
the investment gold in the form of jewelry. Gold Coin, for
example gold 401k which some
people call 401k gold, is very good
when used as an alternative investment, whether it is for the
medium-terminvestment and long-term investment. Besides
that gold coins need less cost in production and manufacturing sot it
is more lucrative than investing gold in the form of jewelry.
Moreover,
some people do not just think gold as an investment, but also as collections. Because the
character is a collection so the uniqueness and rareness are the
point. There might be coins that cost up to more
than a million because of the history variables, ownership, and perhaps an
important event when the coin is launched.
From
the reason above, if we decide to make an investment, it could be useful to consider investing gold
coin or think aboutgold IRA transfer. It is really recommended.
Functionally, translation is
transferring the message or the meaning and not the word. According to Nida,
such translation is called dynamic equivalence translation. It tries to bring
the precise message in different language.
Many people like to
watch Hollywood movie but many get trouble in understanding to the
actors' dialogue. So the way they get the understanding about the movie is
reading the translating text running. If Hindi translation is provided, it will bring the
better understanding for Indian moviegoer.Hollywood movie spread over
other Asia countries. Therefore,Arabic
translation, Indonesian translation and Farsi translationare widely needed and that is a big
chance for English masterin that countries.
India is likely being an English
speaking country. Indiatranslation will grow better and. It
seems Indonesia, Malaysiaand Filipina will reach that mark too
soon. Translation job will be great in amount and that is good
development for translating job seekers.
Writing for Money Online
The emergence of the internet has given
internet entrepreneurs many ways to make money. Writers are one group that have
benefited from their talents as a result in the rise of internet based jobs.
Blog writing is an increasingly popular
way to earn money online determined by the owner of the blog. They are very
popular because of tBlogs are usually written on a certain subject area but can
vary as its content is heir simplicity to get up and running. There are many
free websites out there that will help you set up your own blog if you choose

Article writing is also good money to
earn money online. Make sure to gear your articles to promote and advertise you
own business ventures. These articles are a free way to market the products and
services you offer for free. The most effective advertising with these articles
comes from the dialogue box that is inserted at the end of each article. These
dialogue boxes contain links to basically any website you would like to drive

product you are selling and one to a blog where you are promoting a discussing
other products.
Writing takes some time to gain
credibility through but once it’s done’ earning potential can become very
powerful.
Computer and internet are useful as well as powerful. Information about health and
safe usage of computer and
Internet, especially for children,
should be owned by each family. Computer connected to internet is powerful way to socialize with others. It can
be good but also bad effect. Recently we hear a lot of children get the advantage of social networking
sites but we often see the news about the disadvantage of it for children. Healthy and safety of computer and Internet usage should continue to be
campaigned.
The
role of parent in assisting and directing children in using computer is very necessary. Installation of software monitor such as key logger which has function to watch
and note all activities relating to keyboard usage is helpful but not enough to
protect children from potential harms. Children tend to hide what they have done in
front of the
computer to their parent.
They see that all of they have done are their privacy and no one may know.
We
can not prevent children from
using computer because it is multifunctional. However, many parents worry about
what their kids do in front of the
computer; whether they are doing homework or even just playing games. Or
spending all time to surf internet which is the materials do not fit with his
age. There is a tendency, especially teenagers, want to become acquainted
with many strangers outside. The lack parental supervision of children's
activities is likely to pose a potential danger to them. So parental monitor against the use of computers
needs to be done from time to time.
Why is It Important to Choose the Accredited School?
Most
of teenagers need to go to school and there are a lot
ofschools over there. Nowadays, schools grow to offer plenty of
choice; private and state ones. However it is a hard choice since there are
many factors which need to be considered before making the selection. Some will
be influenced by friends; because some friend got to certain school than we go
to there too. Some prefer to choose certain school because ofthe
closer distance. In fact, the primary decisive matter for selecting school
is whether the school has been accredited or not.
Why is important to choose
an accredited school? Well, accredited schools have an edge
over the unaccreditedschools.
This label of Accredited School has an impact inemployment
opportunities. As result, if there are two or morestudents with
similar qualifications, the student who comes from
the accredited school will have an edge over the other
candidate. Student from an accredited school has more open
door than student with an accredited one.
Many students select certain
school depending more on short term factors like friend influence and short
distance from home. It is not bad since commuting actually needs much cost.
Choosing school which is closer to home will save time, energy and money.
However if that school is not accredited, the time and money spent along
studying seems to be waste in the long term because it could become a limiting
factor in gaining future opportunities.
Accredited school is not the only
factor which will drive student’s success. Personality and characterization are
very important too. However a student with good personality who comes from
an accredited school is better than the others.
