How to eliminate poverty in Indonesia?
I think education is the main key. I have travelled to USA, UK, Germany, Japan, and Singapore and the youths there are not like what MTV or National Lampoon showed us... Many of them are so dilligent and serious in study, although many are not too. Compared to students in Indonesia, the students are competing seriously each other - our students protested for the UN, but the students there consider exams as challenges.

Totally agree!!!! Educate the people....eliminate poverty!!!!
2 :
Okay. First of all, why would you depend on stupid things like MTV or National Lampoon show? Okay. MTV is for music stuff and most of National Lampoon is porn stuff. Japan is totally into their studies and some of the smartest people are there. Ever wonder how Toyota came? On something like National Lampoon it seems like the Japanese are really dirty whores- their disgusting videos from what I've heard. Okay. Back to Indonesia. Then why don't you do something about it? What can YOU do? Think yourself. Third, if you're asking what you can do to eliminate poverty, first think common sense. Sure it seems like a good thing to eliminate poverty, but you can't kill it all. You can help brush poverty away by doing something to help one town or place at a time. Not eliminate. Make a program or something that teaches people to be able to live without begging or something.

i think the first thing that could eliminate the poverty in indonesia is STOP THE CORRUPTION, im so sick of the corruption of my own country, makes me don`t want to live there anymore. Last time i went to get some paperwork in health department there, they really make it hard for me, just because all of their employee wants me to bribe them with money to make things go smooth. After i gave them some money and some food, then things go smoother. Second is education and I really agree on that. Despite the poverty in there ALOT of Indonesian people have a good opportunity to go study abroad. These people when they go back to Indonesia can help the situation. The chance is alot of them will never go back to Indonesia.
4 :
First thing first, Abolish Corruption is the most significant step to eliminate poverty. Indonesian government needs to learn how to maintain their funds and distribute money and welfare to the people equally so that poverty will soon be diminish.
5 :
Totally agreed with the above 2, corruption is the main factor that's contributing to the situation of poverty in Indonesia. Tackle this problem first before thinking of others. BTW, eliminating Muslim will not help but only make matter worse.

Yah, saya stuju. Cara pandang siswa tentang pendidikan masih salah. Untuk ngerubahnya harus dimulai dari guru. Tapi ga semua siswa kayak gitu. Banyak sekolah berkualitas yang lebih baik dari luar negri.

8 :
Have more foreign investment.
9 :
Repair Indonesian morale first...! Stop corruption! Stop talks craps without action... Indonesia is rich country, we have many foreign investment now... Look our IHSG is almost increasing everyday... So where is all money right now...? why with so many capital entering Indonesia is not described with infrastructure's development in Indonesia? I think it goes to politician pocket... So... stop corruption is the key.... And for our representer in DPR/MPR, please shut up your mouth if you dont have any action...
10 :
Having education backgrounds in pure math (stats) and engineering, I will approach this problem in a more analytical way than what have been proposed. Suppose a country has nine citizens: A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, and I. If A, B, and C have incomes of 100 per year, D has 90, E and F have 50, H has 30 and I has 20, then total income is 540, average income is 60 and the poverty line is 30 if calculated as 50 per cent of average, or 36 if calculated as 60 per cent of average. Suppose a wealthy foreign investor come to the country (such as Bill Gates) in the following year. He has an income of 500. He employs H and I for an extra 20 per year (more than they were getting before). The result is: Bill Gates 460, A, B and C 100 each, D has 90, E and F have 50, H now also has 50 and I has 40. So everyone is out of the poverty level of the year before. Sounds great, right? Yes, it works!!! Wait a minute. This is where the relativism kick in. The new poverty line is 52 or 57.2 (depending on the 50 or 60 percent definition). So Bill Gates has not only 'failed' to lift H and I out of poverty by giving them jobs that paid better, he has impoverished E and F, who were previously not poor, even though neither E nor F has lost any income! So, what have we learned? To tackle poverty, perhaps the best way is to reduce or even eliminate foreign investments, and start to rely on readily available native intellectual talents. By no means I am advocating to confront foreigners in Indonesia, but please, if you are citizens of Indonesia, do yourself a favor and think this hard: why do you need foreign companies (such as Freeport) to extract, control, and dominate your very OWN natural resources? PS: Executing all elderly people aged over 60 who live alone on less than average household incomes would statistically eliminate poverty- either they would be dead, or more likely they would choose to live in groups of two or three and therefore rise towards average household income levels. Getting rid of all students would have also similar effect. This may appear insanely evil. But believe it or not, certain Eastern European countries have done this approach. As well, I just described essentially the policies of Pol Pot’s Cambodian holocaust in eliminating poverty.
11 :
you are right. education. but the problem in Indonesia, the educated tends to rob the people of Indonesia. Educated people is everywhere in Indonesia, in government, business sectors etc. But they are also corrupt and tricky. So i guess the key is government. We should have Stable, Clean and Strong Government. Look at USA and Japan for instance.... are the people there so specials? the youngsters doesn't take drugs? but because the elite group in Government, successfully determine the way to becoming very good nation.
12 :
To me job opportunity is one of the key. Cos you are talking about poverty,just build a factory there and start giving the people something to do.If the parents can earn income,the children can go school and be educated. They do not have the means to educate themselves!

Hi I'm from Indonesia, I am a student of Islam, I have a curiosity, about Islamic Terrorism. .?
a curiosity of a Muslim Hi I'm from Indonesia, I am a student of Islam, I have a curiosity, what your reasons to believe that Islamic terrorism comes from the Quran? I don't understand why the tenets of Islam is considered as a violence by outside persons. . I've read the Quran many times so I've understand. do not you ever read entirety of Quran? I think the terrorists of Islam is only wrong of perception, note the following verses: Fight in the cause of Allah Those who fight you, but do not transgress limits; for Allah loveth not transgressors. (2:190) But if the enemy incline Towards peace, do thou (Also) incline Towards peace, and trust in God. for He is One That heareth and knoweth (All Things). (8:61) God forbids you not, with regard to who Those not fight you for (your) Faith Nor drive you out of your homes, from dealing kindly and justly with Them: for Allah loveth Those are just who. (60:8) Let there be no compulsion in religion: Truth stands out clear from Error: whoever Rejects evil and believes in Allah hath grasped the most Trustworthy hand-hold, that never breaks. And Allah heareth and knoweth All Things. (2:256) Except Those who joins a group and Between Whom you 'there is a the treaty (of peace), or Those who approach you with hearts restraining Them from fighting you as well as fighting their own people. If God Had pleased, He Could Have Them given power over you, and they want would have fought you: Therefore If they want to withdraw from you but fight you not, and (instead) send you (guarantees of) peace, then the God hath opened no way for you (to war against Them). (4:90) How Can there be a league, before Allah and His Messenger, with the Pagans, except Those with Whom ye made a treaty near the sacred Mosque? These stand as long as true to you, stand ye true to Them: for Allah doth love the Righteous. (9:7) Muslim terrorists little wrong in interpreting this verses: O prophet! Strive hard against the disbelievers and the hypocrites, and be harsh against Them. Their abode is hell, and an evil destination it is. (9:73) And fight Them Until there's no slander (polytheism) and religion is wholly for Allah. (8:39) it only refers to the situation at that time of chaos and hostility. What's your opinion? and whether you will try to read entire Quran??

i am an american indonesian, i am a law student in indonesia now. anyone know if i wanna be a lawyer in US?
Hey fellas, I am an American Indonesian, I am a law student in Indonesia at the moment. Due to my US citizenship, I also have an interest of becoming lawyer in US. But, what should I do next after graduated from Indonesia? Go to college again so it would be admissible to obtain a JD degree? Or should I study for LL.M degree since some said that some states in US accept LL.M graduates to practice? Thank a lot for your help or info

You have to see if the schools in the US will accept your law credits from a school in Indonesia. In most cases, it's unlikely. But there's always a chance, depending on the school. I'd recommend focusing on the JD degree and do it again so it could be permissible. What you have to remember is that law in Indonesia is most likely specific to Indonesia, just like law in the US is specific to law in the US. As such, there could be some overlapping classes such as those in ethics or juris prudence, however overall there fields are completely different. I'd say come back to the US and find a good JD school in the US. I hear Minnesota has good law schools. In any event, in the US the LLM is taken normally after you already have a JD as a specialized field. However, you're studying law in a different country so you'd want to get your JD in the US and then move into the LLM later on; of course after you find out if the US will recognize your Indonesian degree...if they do then go into the LLM. If not, the JD would be best---personally I would go for it either way to be on the safe side. Once States laws is not the same for another State.
2 :
It is highly unlikely that the US will allow you to sit for the bar as is, and very unlikely that with an Indonesian degree that you could get a L.LM. More than likely you will have to apply to Law School in the U.S. and go through Law School in the U.S. To be honest its truly questionable if any of your college will be recognized by a U.S. college.
