Indonesia has ancestors
suave and very polite in relationships with others and their daily lives. But
why to back (this time), the value of it all faded? Australia, Aboriginal, they
are far less civilized and much more brutal than our ancestors, but now they
are in the category of highly ordered state and the level of life that tend to
prosper. Said a friend who told me.
I also remember when my colleague rather my
thesis supervisor when I got home from Australia and we met in 2012. He told
me, during floods that crippled Brisbane, my lecturers including a lucky man
because he lived in a flat which is rather high and not have to evacuate.
"People there are not selfish, the remaining inhabitants each other in
coming, whether they know it or not. Every door they knock the materials they
offer meals and blankets, to ask what we need, they shared with ease and
sincerity "," whether the particular officer who came home disaster
you? "Asked I," instead, it is the neighbors I am the same boat with
me, and they do not live in refugee camps "I shudder to hear the story.
How they can live side by side like that and treat others who are not native to
Australia like it, no strings attached.
If only we could be like our
neighbors, the beauty of life and togetherness. Until finally I was told a fact
that makes my brain "cramps" moment. It turned out to educate and
inculcate such attitudes in our neighboring countries that take a minimum of 16
years, continuously and consistently. And to educate children read and write
and count no more than 6 months. Parents in Australia, not dizzy if his son
could not read and write, because it will be covered in the next 6 months, but
the discipline and character building applied as early as possible, they know
it's more important than just reading and writing at the age of 3 -5 years.
Hopefully this thing, can
bring enlightenment and good for our country, and keep the spirit
