Four ‘Easy-Socialized’ Steps to Make A Sustainable Development in Earth

Sustainable development is a process in which decision makers assess the social, environmental and economic aspects of any action or decision to make sure that the outcomes are as sustainable as possible. As this world grows with so many issues related to the sustainable development, we as a human have to react for what we have. We are now facing many problems that related to sustainability, such as climate change, wars, and many more. This has to be solved urgently and adequately. We are briefly to make solutions to this earth so that we can live peacefully. As the citizen who lived in this world, the key to maintain the sustainability is placed upon ourselves.. The simple thing that i can do as a citizen to save this earth is undertsand myself as part of the problem. If you don’t understand yourself as part of the problem, you cannot be part of the solution. The problems happen because of our own behavior, our own failure to protect our nature from our greedy hands who exploit the nature too much. This world is dying because of us. As the next generation, i have to understand my role as a citizen, creating a mindset in my mind that i have to be the triggers to encourage people near me to make them understand about sustainable development.

The first thing that i will do is focus on socialisation. I have to explain  what is sustainable development and its importance. The socialisation will be more innovative by giving them a role play with scenarios related to the earth’s latest problem, such as transportation and climate change. A person will have an argument with others and persuade them, so they can be encouraged to make sustainable act to the world. The aim of this socialisation is to make them understand of the role that they play and can play in sustainable development processes to make action or decisions

The next thing that i will do is make a campaign. As the citizen, i have to be actively involve in any action to support the sustainablity of this world.  The campaign will be about development issues which related to the Millenium Development Goals. By tackling development issues, we create the perspective of each people to make innovations on how MDGs can solve the sustainity. This is could be the expression and opinion from one to another. The campaign will be conducted with social and communication tools and media. As the growth of technology, there are so many useful social media that can be use to promote the ‘Sustainable Development’ campaign. I will make it more interesting by addresing this campaign to stakeholders, governments, students, youths, and many more. By this campaign, i will create the platform for everyone to demonstrate their knowledgE, understanding about sustainable development, envisioning alternative ways of development and living,  and evaluating alternative visions

The Third, i will make the sustainable communities group who will have a partnership with governments, leaders, stakeholders, and another authority. My investment is in youths. They are key innovators and thought leaders not only of tomorrow but right now. We have an important responsibility to empower them to. Young people are the most aware about the problems. The youths should be recognized as the people who can make a change to this planet. I will invite more youths to give education to citizen. My target is to have audiences with government and evaluate their policy in development.

                The last, act sustainity. As the citizen, i have to show how i support the sustainable by behaving righfully. There are many ways to do that, such as choose the green transportation, like choosing cycling rather than using motorcycles or cars, it will reduce our own CO₂ emission,  then use water properly, throw rubbishes in the thrash can, reduce your plastics and many more. Actually this is the most simple thing that every people can do in their life. At least, i am  the pioneer of my self and i can be reminder to everyone to do the same thing like me to save the world.

Indonesia “A Land of Natural Disasters Tragedy”

Indonesia  “A Land of Natural Disasters Tragedy”

Indonesia, a multi-ethnic archipelago country of more than 17.000 islands, located between two continents, Asia and Australia and within the Indian and Pacific oceans, is one of many countries which has a lot of problems regarding the natural disasters. Indonesia is disposed to natural catastrophes because its islands rest on the edges of the Pacific, Eurasian, and Australian tectonic plates. Moreover, with the country’s climate that is predominantly tropical and characterized by extreme weather pattern, the risks of natural hazards in Indonesia remains alarmingly high. Indonesia is subject to frequent natural disasters. Due to its location, Indonesia will always be prone to natural disasters and its people are always at risk. Citizens of Indonesia always be haunted by upcoming natural disasters. Most of Indonesians are now believing that there is no more safety places in Indonesia to protect them from the disasters. This is trully a misleading mindset of them. Actually, the causes of disasters are mostly done by human. It’s not argued anymore that human play an important role in changing environmental condition.

As the expansive development began in early 1970’s, Indonesia has lost more than 60% of forests area in lowlands. Since that time, we have changed our coverage lands.  There are many more forests have been cutted down to build settlements, manufacturing, and another buildings. We are explorating too much to this country!! . Yes, that’s the true. We are still a developing country. With the total area more than 5 million km², Indonesia can be categorized as a big country, with highly human resources it leads into the high demands of basical needed. To fulfill their basic neededs, the natural resources are one of the solutions that easily to get. The problems are too much exploitations, less attention to the environment condition. This is the main factor why Indonesia suffers many disasters.

On average, every year nearly half of Indonesia’s districts experience at least one natural disaster and many experience multiple disasters. Is there any prevention or preparedness? Yes, there are so many of it! In every single disaster came, Indonesian Government and local government react to this. Make plentiful of new regulations regadring the disasters. Increasing the people’s mindset about how to protect the natural environment and many more. Natural disasters have reshaped Indonesia’s approach to disaster response and preparedness, and made communities more resilient. But, it’s just a little fact with a little understanding from a little group of people. Is it sustain? We have to think about it again. Indonesia is not a country where people are ready and well prepared for disatsters.  There are two impacts of disasters: Economically and psychologically. In terms of Indonesia’s economy, natural catastrophes damage property and stop economic activity, which consequently result in significant financial loss for the people. Furthermore, the series of natural disasters create more burden on the national budget to finance post-disaster rehabilitation. (Jakarta Post, 2010)

Some of big natural disasters that have ever happened in Indonesia are floods, tsunami, earthquakes, and eruptions. First is floods. Floods in Indonesia could happened because of so many deforestations. Not just it, with more than 200 millions of population, Indonesians need settlement and more infrastructures, so they cutted down the forest, it can also called as deforestation, and make it as a built up area. Now, we are lack of trees which can absorb the incoming water from rain. Indonesia's rainy season (which runs from December to March) can bring plenty of rainfall. In combination with deforestation and waterways clogged with debris, it can cause rivers to overflow and result in floods. We can take Jakarta city as an example. Every year, they suffers flood with many deficits. We can see that many citizens in Jakarta build their houses near the river. Actually, we have a rule that we can build house with the range of 15 meters from the river’s border, but in Jakarta, the rule is nothing! . But this is not totally the mistake of Jakarta, Bogor as a ‘rain city’ is a key of this problem. Bogor nowadays is lack of forests, especially in Puncak Bogor. The forests have turned into a villa, housings, and many more. No forest mean no water absorbtion, the water from Bogor flow until Jakarta’s river and it is overflow.

Second one is Tsunami. Perhaps the most tragic experience has been that of Indonesia. In 2004, Indonesia lost over 200,000 people when a tsunami swept into Aceh – most people remember the moment they heard and saw the news of the East Asia tsunami.  A few months later, Nias was devastated by an earthquake. A little more than a year later, over 6,000 people in Java lost their lives in earthquakes and tsunamis. In 2010, Mount Merapi erupted, destroying houses and habitats barely recovering from the last disaster.  Because of Indonesia’s location in a geologically active part of the world, it will always be prone to natural disasters, and its people will always be at risk (World Bank, 2012). On average, once every five years a large tsunami happens in Indonesia, usually on the islands of Sumatra and Java. Generally, damage to the infrastructure exceeds the loss of lives. There are warning systems installed on many coastal areas but there have been reports that not all are functioning properly.

Third is Earthquake. Being located on the Pacific Ring of Fire (an area with a lot of tectonic activity), Indonesia has to cope with the constant risk of earthquakes. The biggest earthquake that happened in Indonesia are in Aceh Province, after that earthquake, tsunami came and swallow everything near the coasts.

The last one is Eruption caused by Volcanoes. Indonesia is the country that contains the most active volcanoes of all countries in the world. The Eurasian Plate, Pacific Plate and Indo-Australian Plate are three active tectonic plates that cause the subduction zones that form these volcanoes. Indonesia is estimated to have 129 volcanoes, all carefully observed by the Centre of Volcanology and Geological Hazard Mitigation (Pusat Vulkanologi dan Mitigasi Bencana Geologi), because a number of Indonesian volcanoes show continuous activity.

                As the citizen of Indonesia, how can we prevent this harmly natural disasters?? Actually we can’t prevent it, but we can be prepared for this natural disasters and we have to reduce the damage caused by those disasters. Why?? First look into ourselves and realize that we need natural resources and they are provided to us so we can use it properly, but not exploit them too much. We have to take care of our environment no matter what. To save this and next generations. We always count on government’s act, but we have to take our own act to keep our environment alive. Over the past decades, there are lack of people pay attention to this problem, but since there are another issues about global warming, now many people react to save the world. It is not too late to make this world sustain for long terms. We have to raise more societal awareness. Therefore, the only choice we have is to prepare ourselves for the worst scenario and raise community awareness about the disasters. The state has to provide a reliable and appropriate disaster evacuation system and infrastructure. The government also needs to start listening to experts that have advised on potential disasters we face. If we do not take fundamental actions and responsibility, dealing with natural disasters will be more complicated in the future and we will be unable to prevent a huge loss of life.

“Achieving peaceful dispute settlement in Crimea”

Crimea is a conflicted city in Ukraine. It has a lot of natural resources and potential. So many problems in this area, so it needs to be resolve and de-escalate. Actually, Crimea is a long story problem. It is about the border between Ukrania and Russia. In 1992, the Crimea constitution had given the region independence within Ukraine, but eventually, that status had changed and Crimea had been reduced to an autonomous republic, he continued.  Crimeans had openly shown their sympathy for the Russian Federation, and the deep political crisis in Ukraine, provoked by “adventurous actions”. Based on the fact, Crimea is located in eastern Ukraine where the citizens still speak Russian. As the representative of European Union, this problem needs to be resolved as fast as it can be. Recently, the European economics are unbalance because of this problem. And the current market shares are unstable. This ‘cold war’ is now between U.S and Russia. As U.S. feel threaten because of this Crimea Crisis, so there should be a General Assembly between U.S, Russia, and EU. We can see that so many people are outraged because of this crisis. As the ambassador of EU, we could have a diplomatic effort to regain back the stablization of the citizens in Ukraine. It urged all parties immediately to pursue a peaceful resolution of the situation through direct political dialogue, to exercise restraint, and to refrain from unilateral actions and inflammatory rhetoric that could raise tensions. We can make some agreement around  here. As the solution, Russia should move back those 40.000 troops in Crimea and begin the direct negotiations with Ukranian government. With the withdrawing of the troops, Russia may continue to establish their naval facilities in Crimea but they don’t have rights to bother the Crimeans. E.U and IMF should help the Ukraine’s financial by giving the lending to its government to help Ukraine develops its country again. There will be no political contagion from U.S and Russia, there must be a public referendum towards the future of Crimea and all the necessary legislative decisions on the results of the referendum will be taken as soon as possible.

ACHIEVING HUMAN RIGHTS THROUGH POLICIES OF THE UNITED NATIONS

Human rights are the basis for achieving the Millenium Development Goals in 2015. By incorporating human rights principles into Policies of United build Nations, this is will be more likely “keeping the promise” and promote everything about human rights sustainability. Human rights establish universally accepted legal guarantees to protect the freedom and equality of individual.We can see that thousands of individuals and citizen groups around the world are fighting for their rights and freedoms. United Nation action for human rights continues. This is really urgent to heightened the sense for respect of human rights. Yet millions people around the world suffer some serious violation or deprivation of their basic rights and freedom. United Nation have to declare the Universal Declaration of Human Rights to increase the involvement in the defense of human rights which can help to build an environment where freedom and dignity are expected and respected. UN are the crucial entry points and vehicle for this implementation of this plan to enhanced complementary and effectiveness of human rights. United Nation can build such an institution in country level to promote and protect the freedom of people which can make such a good development. Policies from UN need monitoring progress, adjusting, and implementation to all of world’s citizen. Effective world human rights protection systems require public policies guided by human rights principles and norms and designed to ensure enjoyment of human rights by all people. We know that there’s cooperation between the UNDG, ECHA, and OHCHR to make a good integration program on making the policies, but to know the problem and the existing condition in each country’s human right, so there must be a methodological tools, educational services and publication regarding to the policies itself. In order to achieve the policies, we need a plan of action to know the mechanism of the policies, it is important to the UN for making a policies that really have a good approaching to the citizen and reducing the mainstreaming of unimportant policies. Building the strong policies in UN can make a good innovation in achieving the human rights, because since the Magna Charta charter had been published and known in every people in the world, it can be a milestone or benchmark to create a sustainable world and reducing the violation, nuclear war, civil war or any kind of human rights restriction.

The Influences and Importances of Multilingual Ability in Creating the Global Citizenship in Central Java

Introduction

The world now is on going to be an enormous world with the growth of globalization and technology.  As we see in this 20th century, every countries,  government, citizen, and also every individual work on creating the better world with borderless, due to the growth of economics and social.  Now, we are reaching the most beneficial phase, the global citizenship. Actually, the idea of global, or world, citizenship is a very old one, but it has recently come back into fashion. The first time we actually feel the concept the global citizenship was during the industrial revolution in England, but its origins can be traced back to at least 4th century Greece when Diogenes declared himself a cosmopolitan ‘a citizen of the world. At the time, the earth’s shape, the configuration of the vast majority of its surface, and even the existence of its varied peoples and cultures, would have been largely unknown to him or anyone. To avoid a possible source of confusion right away, it is not equivalent to the idea of global, or world, government. If some form of global government were to be created, then perhaps it would have global citizens to go with it. But enthusiasm for global citizenship reaches far beyond support for world government, whose feasibility problems and practical limitations are widely recognized Global Citizenship are the processes that foster knowledge, skills and attitudes which promote justice and equality in a multicultural society and interdependent world. To be a global citizen, one is knowledgeable of peoples, customs and cultures in regions of the world beyond one's own; understands the interdependence that holds both promise and peril for the future of the global community; and is committed to combining one’s learning with a dedication to foster a livable, sustainable world (Back, 2008).

            . Sometimes, the global citizenship is related with the political and social life in a country, but it is far beyond that. The global citizenship has a wide meaning and implication to every people in the world. Arguably, the global citizenship’s aim is to create and engage people, especially the young generation who still have the open minded and great vision. It it the time to develop the competencies and actively engage to the world. And it is also related about the way we thinking and behaving to make a sustainability within every citizens. Yet the most important and also the problem to reach the global citizenship is the language. So that’s mean it is really related with the education, because reaching the global citizenship is same like internationalization. We can see there are so many practice of Global Citizenship in every countries, such as issuing about the global environment and learning about the cultural differences. Assuming that every citizens have their connection in every people around the world with the social media. We have so many languages in this world, but there are languages that really important to be learned to face the reality of this world when we go to somewhere place. In every single education, we are given a foreign language to foster our global mindset which will make a path to reaching the global citizenship. Language allows us a window into a different part of the world, a new culture and lifestyle. It creates no barrier between two persons who communicate each other, yet we still have to learn about others if the language is different. While learning vocabulary and grammar enables one to listen and speak, true understanding takes personal involvement; it challenges the “lens” one sees through and how one makes sense of the world. The ability to understand a foreign language gives individuals the opportunity to discover the how and why of actions or behavior; in this sense language helps to reduce prejudices, misconceptions and misunderstandings of intent. The global citizenship requires the prominent skill of fluency in languages in each people. Let’s take an example of United Nations, this organization has six official language and it can be spoken in any meeting or appointment during the conference.

Analysis

             Indonesia has more than 17.000 islands and also more than 200 tribes and cultures. In the context of Indonesia, as a university student of Urban and Regional Planning Engineering Department in Diponegoro University which located in Central Java Province, in my opinion the global citizenship is still a concept which can be called as a milestone to develop the students in every faculty, yet it is still far from the aim as the concepts of globalization, but we still try to deliver the concept through the international learning, developing cultural knowledge, and also from the international organization. In this case, It is important for students to develop skills in accessing and understanding information on culture and in applying that knowledge for the purposes of interaction and communication. It is one of reaching the global citizenship. The national tagline of Indonesia is “Unity in Diversity”, but the problem is we are still lack in collaborating the cultures to be as one. After that, Indonesians are still lack of awareness to learn the second language, which is english, the most common one in every education institutions. Indonesian government already gave their efforts to increase the global knowledge of its citizens by giving the english lesson. As i have been seen in the university, consequently, those who learn a foreign language will become more dynamic and improve their problem-solving abilities. As a result, students who are bilingual (or multilingual) perform better at the university and have a tendency to develop a higher level of intellect in comparison to their peers. In every academic institutions in Central Java, English is chosen as the means of communication among people beside France, Germany, or Chinese language. English is also be as the basic language in our lecture’s books. The current globalization and internalisation processes have led to a tremendous expansion of the English language in Indonesia, now in every regencies or even districts, governments are developing and conveying to the citizens about the culture of speaking English as the second language, for example, mayor of Bandung city made a concept that in every Tuesday, the citizens of Bandung should speak English. He added that english proficiency is highly regarded as one of the individual’s fundamental skills and it’s also a key to open the global network for each persons. With the 240 million population in Indonesia, the main problem of educating the people to learn about second language, which is very stressed in English language is the socialization. Yet we still have the other important problems, such as natural disasters, economic problems, lack of the job opportunities, and the most important one is more than 35% of Indonesians are lack of education. Mostly, Indonesians are proposed by the government to reach the 12 years of study in every level of education, but after that, there is lack of responsibility from the government to make sure that Indonesian Citizens are worth it to continue to the next level of education. In the cultural side, as the person who live in Central Java which has many cultures, there are many people who choose to go for a work rather than study. They prefer it because it can make them to earn more money to continue their life, for education, they only rely on the hands of government, citizens are lack of motivation and sometimes, the culture hold a barrier between the education and working. As a students, i joined an international organizations. The organization is AIESEC. This organizations has been widely known in more than 100 countries. One of the aim of this organization is to engage and enable young people to develop and discover themselves through the community development program. It has a big impact in developing people to learn about foreign language through the foreigners which are invited by AIESEC in Semarang and be as the members of learning groups. They enable the peoples who are still stuck in education and cultures to learn about the cultures of the foreigners and to make them apply it in their life.

  

The Foreigners from AIESEC members are explaining about Global Warming Issues to the Children in Elementary School

The main reason why people in Central Java Province is difficult to learn about the english language is they don’t have any big desires to learn, they are less confident to use them in a natural communication situation due to lack of opportunity. Based on the fact, only the person who get the higher education will understand about the ideas of global citizenship, the rest of them who didn’t get the high education will only accept what the government  has planned without any further step or innovation. That’s the problem in the Indonesia, especially Central Java, which has the second biggest population in Java Island, the culture has a big role in improving or decreasing their own value mark about global citizenship. As we are still in traditional living which are more adaptable, many Indonesians are not willingly to think about the Global Citizenship idea, because living with traditional culture living will give more happiness and prosperous rather than joining the concept of global citizenship.

             

Conclusion

            The new idea of Global Citizenship is worth to implemented in the world, since we are embracing
and growing in every important sides, like social, political, economic, and global network. We need it to make a new world which is ‘borderless’ by understanding every people, accept the differences and be corporate. Actually, the ideas of global citizenship can be applied firmly in Indonesia, but it needs more time, cause the ideas mostly known only by students or the person who has higher education. In Central Java, the people still holding on to the traditional living and mindset. The thing they only know is avoiding the foreign cultures by giving the learning of traditional cultures to their youngsters. As the globalization reach the villages, it’s difficult for them to protect their own cultures, since their youngsters are growing to be a better person. Students in university in Central Java have a higher chance to keep the ideas of global citizenship by learning the multilingual ability. This is the ‘must do’ process. Why? Because they will challenge themselves into the global network and job opportunities. Having the multilingual ability gives us a path to take us one step closer to our dream and be the part of new world. Since i know that every books in university are written in English, it is very important to learn the language, eventhough it’s difficult to learn for some persons. But in the end,  it will create an awareness of the world and we have our senses to be as the world citizen. There are a lot of learning process that can be implemented in every citizens to know about global citizenship, we have to make the comprehensible approachment to develop the mindset of citizens who still have lack of knowledge in knowing the global citizenship. The role of students is really needed like make the community group which focusing on global issues and they have to involve citizens to participate in it by inviting the foreigners to talk about the recent issues in their countries and deliver it with english, so the citizens will eager to learn about the foreigners’ language, like English and they also improving their knowledge about the global issues and it will be a cornerstone to be the global citizens, because the best way to get into the culture of people in Central Java Province is by the comprehensible approachment.

Indonesia and Its Energy Problem

Indonesia is a country which has five big islands with various energy consumption in each islands. Time after time, with the highly increasing of the populations, Indonesia now facing the problems which is related with the sustainable energy and the skyrocketing demand of energy. Energy is an important engine of economic growth, on which both poverty reduction and shared prosperity depend. Most economic activity would be impossible without energy, but for a long time, Indonesia has a really big reliance on dirty and subsidised fossil fuels, it is used by households, industrials, and many more. The energy mixes in Indonesia based on five main resources; these are crude oil, natural gas, coal, hydropower, and renewable energy. Although the country encourages utilizing renewable energy, the contribution is only around 3%. Indonesia today consumes about 500 million barrels of oil every year with and annual increase of 10 million barrels. Indonesia now holds 39 per cent of oil for energy supply, but as we know, oil is not a renewable energy resources. If Indonesia continues to use the big numbers of oil without any alternative enery resources, in the next few years, Indonesia will be completely dependent on importing of its energy needs. (Subianto, 2011) At the present, the main factor of high consumption of energy in Indonesia is the explosion of population, within 20 years, the number of population in Indonesia has increased from 170 million in early 1980’s to 240 million now. According to the Green Policy Paper released by the Finance Ministry, total energy demand in Indonesia is growing by around 7 per cent per year. It continues to increase since the number of population growth significantly.

More than 50% of Indonesians have their own vehicle, this is really a big problem. Only a few of Indonesians use the public transportation to go to other place. Why this could be happened? It is regarding to the time efficiency, most of Indonesian think that by using their own vehicle, it will make them faster to go somewhere, but critically it will make the higher consumption of fuel. In order to make a sustainable enery for Indonesians, government have given the solution to make a subsidies energy to the poor households, but in other side, many reports and research has shown that the subsidies discourage the development of alternative or renewable energy sources. Related to the sustainable energy, actually Indonesia has so many potential renewable energy resources such as geothermal, wind, energy, and biomass. As we make the transition to other sources of supply, we need to make sure that we do not squander our past investment in fossil fuel infrastructures.

Although Indonesia possesses a variety of renewable energy resources, including geothermal, solar, micro-hydro, wind and bio-energy, but it is not balance with the system of the government in Indonesia and the mindset of Indonesians. The problem is there is no policy framework that explained about the roles of  local government and central governments related to the understanding the implications of pursuing the renewable energy. Indonesia has a decentralized system which allowed the local government to have a right for controlling their own energy resources, but the obstacle is the local governments don’t have a good framework to handle this. So there is a need for changes the government policy. After that, In the real fact, Indonesians are still rely on the fossil energy, for somehow, the renewable energy doesn’t always work, like sun doesn’t shine every day, wind doesnt blow hard everyday, and many more. That’s why Indonesians still think that fossil energy is better and can be used everyday. Indonesians need adequate, reliable, and competitively priced modern energy which is very essential for business development, job creation, income generation, and international competitiveness, after that government should Improving the quality of life for Indonesians by ensuring access to energy services.

Then, governments with the citizens have to make some collaboration to make steady progress in the development and introduction of cleaner fossil fuel resources and generation technologies; renewable energy resources and generation technologies; and more efficient end-use technologies.Beside that, there should be an approachment, like efficiency-oriented approach which can directs us to look for ways to reduce environmental impacts and improve efficiency along the entire energy “supply-chain.”  The other solution is make coordinating long-term sustainable energy development. It is very useful for controlling the energy from the private sectors. More broadly, making the transition to a more diversified (and hopefully more sustainable) energy system will require continuous improvements in both technologies and management systems. Such programs need not be cost prohibitive however, since without such initiatives many developing countries, such as Indonesia would need to import greater amounts of fuel, and develop a larger, less efficient energy infrastructure. Different energy technologies and management systems will be required by country and region, depending upon available local resources, skills, and initial economic, environmental and social conditions. There is also need of improving the public transportation, the natural gasses, technology, and management to make sure that Indonesia has the efficiency, reliabolity, and sustainability of energy. The development and deployment of new energy sources and efficient technologies is clearly a key element in the transition to a sustainable energy infrastructure.

INTRODUCTION / INTRODUCCIÓN

Hello People Around The World, How are you? cómo estás? :D

Let me introduce my self and a little bit story of my Life here!

Wanna know about me? Then you have to read all of these..
