Subject: [ppiindia] Very interesting and well put by a Pakistani columnist
Suatu tinjaun yang berdasarkan fakta yang bisa disimak dalam sikon dunia
saat ini.
Dikatakan dalam uraian disini, bahwa kemajuan manusia tergantung dari
pendidikan. Tapi dilemma-nya untuk mendapatkan pendidikan yang memadai
perlu di danai. Untuk mendanai pendidikan diperlukan uang dan uang hanya
bisa dihasilkan, atau kata2 yang lebih tepat, untuk meng-ongkosi pendidikan
perlu suatu pemerintahan yang memihak rakyat. Artinya negara bisa maju apabila
dikelola dengan baik bagi ,...selain perbaikan taraf hidup rakyat juga
meninggikan derajat/pandangan terhadap negara tersebut, alhasil....
pendidikan akan maju dan siap untuk bersaing dalam dunia internasional dalam\\
segala bidang...bagi martabat kemanusiaan.
Education , pendidikan, ilmu membuat kita perkasa!
Dalam sejarah disebut bahwa kemajuan negara2 Islam ada catatannya.
Seperti di sebut bahwa pendidikan kedokteran pertama didunia ada di Baghdad,
ber-abad2 yang lalu. Tapi bagaimana negara2 yang majority-nya ber-agama
Islam saat ini, ternyata sangat terbelakang terutama dalam soal ..education?
Dimana letak kesalahan ini?. Apakah karena agama(Islam) itu sendiri yang
menjadi penghambat kemajuan ataukah pemerintah2 negara2 ber-majority
agama Islam itu tidak punya kapasitas untuk bisa memajukan negaranya?Karena
kekayaan ,misalnya hasil bumi (misalnya minyak di TimTeng)itu cuma dikuasai
alias dinikmati oleh sebagian kecil penggede2 beserta raja dan gedibal2nya.
Apakah segala kasus teror-isme saat ini yang di sebut2 adalah suatu
perang jihad melawan para kapirun, zionist, amiriki, semua ini, se-
tidak-nya mengacu kepada bobroknya negara2 Islam.Dikatakan bobrok karena
faktanya rakyat negara Islam ternyata termasuk perangkat negara miskin, atau
paling sedikit bisa dikatakan education-nya sangat rendah.
Dengan sendirinya, alhasil dari ini semua, maka pedidikan, education ngak
ada dan achirnya banyak pihak yang putus asa dan mengambil jalan
pintas...jadi teroris.

Very well put by a Pakistani columnist
By: Dr Farrukh Saleem
The writer is an Islamabad-based freelance columnist
Why are Jews so powerful?
There are only 14 million Jews in the world; seven million in the Americas,
five million in Asia, two million in Europe and 100,000 in Africa.. For every
single Jew in the world there are 100 Muslims. Yet, Jews are more than a
hundred times more powerful than all the Muslims put together. Ever wondered
why?
Jesus of Nazareth was Jewish. Albert Einstein, the most influential scientist
of all time and TIME magazine's 'Person of the Century', was a Jew. Sigmund
Freud -- id, ego, and superego -- the father of psychoanalysis
Was a Jew. So were Karl Marx, Paul Samuelson and Milton Friedman.
Here are a few other Jews whose intellectual output has enriched the whole
humanity: Benjamin Rubin gave humanity the vaccinating needle. Jonas Salk
developed the first polio vaccine. Alert Sab in developed the improved live
polio vaccine. Gertrude Elion gave us a leukaemia fighting drug. Baruch
Blumberg developed the vaccination for Hepatitis B. Paul Ehrlich discovered a
treatment for syphilis (a sexually transmitted disease).
Elie Metchnikoff won a Nobel Prize in infectious diseases.
Bernard Katz won a Nobel Prize in neuromuscular transmission. Andrew Schally
won a Nobel in endocrinology (disorders of the endocrine system; diabetes,
hyperthyroidism) ... Aaron Beck founded Cognitive Therapy (psychotherapy to
treat mental disorders, depression and phobias). Gregory Pincus developed the
first oral contraceptive pill. George Wald won a Nobel for furthering our
understanding of the human eye. Stanley
Cohen won a Nobel in embryology (study of embryos and their development) .
Willem Kolff came up with the kidney dialysis machine.
Over the past 105 years, 14 million Jews have won 15-dozen Nobel Prizes while
only three Nobel Prizes have been won by 1.4 billion Muslims (other than Peace
Prizes).
Why are Jews so powerful? Stanley Mezor invented the first micro-processing
chip. Leo Szilard developed the first nuclear chain reactor. Peter Schultz,
optical fibre cable; Charles Adler, traffic lights; Benno Strauss, Stainless
steel; Isador Kisee, sound movies; Emile Berliner, telephone microphone and
Charles Ginsburg, videotape recorder.
Famous financiers in the business world who belong to Jewish faith include
Ralph Lauren (Polo), Levis Strauss (Levi's Jeans), Howard Schultz (Starbuck's)
, Sergey Brin (Google), Michael Dell (Dell Computers), Larry Ellison (Oracle),
Donna Karan (DKNY), Irv Robbins (Baskin & Robbins) and Bill Rosenberg (Dunkin
Donuts).
Richard Levin, President of Yale University, is a Jew. So are Henry Kissinger
(American secretary of state), Alan Greenspan (fed chairman under Reagan, Bush,
Clinton and Bush), Joseph Lieberman, Madeleine Albright (American secretary of
state), Maxim Litvinov (USSR foreign Minister), David Marshal (Singapore's
first chief minister), Isaac Isaacs (governor-general of Australia), Benjamin
Disraeli (British statesman and author), Yevgeny Primakov (Russian PM), Jorge
Sampaio (president of Portugal), Herb Gray (Canadian deputy PM), Pierre Mendes
(French PM), Michael Howard (British home secretary), Bruno Kreisky (chancellor
of Austria) and Robert Rubin (former American secretary of treasury).
In the media, famous Jews include Wolf Blitzer (CNN), Barbara Walters (ABC
News), Eugene Meyer (Washington Post), Henry Grunwald (editor-in-chief Time),
Katherine Graham (publisher of The Washington Post), Joseph Lelyyeld (Executive
editor, The New York Times), and Max Frankel (New York Times).
Can you name the most beneficent philanthropist in the history of the world?
The name is George Soros, a Jew, who has so far donated a colossal $4 billion
most of which has gone as aid to scientists and universities around the world.
Second to George Soros is Walter Annenberg, another Jew, who has built a
hundred libraries by donating an estimated $2 billion.
At the Olympics, Mark Spitz set a record of sorts by winning seven gold medals.
Lenny Krayzelburg is a three- time Olympic gold medallist. Spitz, Krayzelburg
and Boris Becker are all Jewish.
Did you know that Harrison Ford, George Burns, Tony Curtis, Charles Bronson,
Sandra Bullock, Billy Crystal, Woody Allen, Paul Newman, Peter Sellers, Dustin
Hoffman, Michael Douglas, Ben Kingsley, Kirk Douglas, William Shatner, Jerry
Lewis and Peter Falk are all Jewish?
As a matter of fact, Hollywood itself was founded by a Jew. Among directors and
producers, Steven Spielberg, Mel Brooks, Oliver Stone, Aaron Spelling (Beverly
Hills 90210), Neil Simon (The Odd Couple), Andrew Vaina (Rambo 1/2/3), Michael
Man (Starsky and Hutch), Milos Forman (One flew over the Cuckoo's Nest),
Douglas Fairbanks (The thief of Baghdad) and Ivan Reitman (Ghostbusters) are
all Jewish.
To be certain, Washington is the capital that matters and in Washington the
lobby that matters is The American Israel Public Affairs Committee, or AIPAC.
Washington knows that if PM Ehud Olmert were to discover that the earth is
flat, AIPAC will make the 109th Congress pass a resolution congratulating
Olmert on his discovery.
William James Sidis, with an IQ of 250-300, is the brightest human who ever
existed. Guess what faith did he belong to?
So, why are Jews so powerful?
Answer: Education.
Why are Muslims so powerless?
There are an estimated 1,476,233,470 Muslims on the face of the planet: one
billion in Asia, 400 million in Africa,
44 million in Europe and six million in the Americas. Every fifth human being
is a Muslim; for every single Hindu there are two Muslims, for every Buddhist
there are two Muslims and for every Jew there are one hundred Muslims.
Ever wondered why Muslims are so powerless?
Here is why: There are 57 member-countries of the Organisation of Islamic
Conference (OIC), and all of them put together have around 500 universities;
one university for every three million Muslims. The United States has 5,758
universities and India has 8,407. In 2004, Shanghai Jiao Tong University
compiled an 'Academic Ranking of World
Universities' , and intriguingly, not one university from Muslim-majority
states was in the top-500.
As per data collected by the UNDP, literacy in the Christian world stands at
nearly 90 per cent and 15 Christian- majority states have a literacy rate of
100 per cent. A Muslim-majority state, as a sharp contrast, has an average
literacy rate of around 40 per cent and there is no Muslim-majority state with
a literacy rate of 100 per cent. Some
98 per cent of the 'literates' in the Christian world had completed primary
school, while less than 50 per cent of the 'literates' in the Muslim world did
the same. Around 40 per cent of the 'literates' in the Christian world attended
university while no more than two per cent of the 'literate s' in the Muslim
world did the same.
Muslim-majority countries have 230 scientists per one million Muslims. The US
has 4,000 scientists per million and Japan has 5,000 per million. In the entire
Arab world, the total number of full-time researchers is 35,000 and there are
only 50 technicians per one million Arabs (in the Christian world there are up
to 1,000 technicians per one million).
Furthermore, the Muslim world spends 0.2 per cent of its GDP on research and
development, while the Christian world spends around five per cent of its GDP.
Conclusion: The Muslim world lacks the capacity to produce knowledge.
Daily newspapers per 1,000 people and number of book titles per million are two
indicators of whether knowledge is being diffused in a society. In Pakistan,
there are 23 daily newspapers per 1,000 Pakistanis while the same ratio in
Singapore is 360. In the UK, the number of book titles per million stands at
2,000 while the same in Egypt is 20.
Conclusion: The Muslim world is failing to diffuse knowledge.
Exports of high technology products as a percentage of total exports are an
important indicator of knowledge application. Pakistan's exports of high
technology products as a percentage of total exports stands at one per cent.
The same for Saudi Arabia is 0.3 per cent; Kuwait, Morocco, and Algeria are all
at 0.3 per cent while Singapore is at 58 per cent.
Conclusion: The Muslim world is failing to apply knowledge.
Why are Muslims powerless?
Because we aren't producing knowledge.
Why are Muslims powerless?
Because we aren't diffusing knowledge..
Why are Muslims powerless?
Because we aren't applying knowledge..
And, the future belongs to knowledge-based societies.
Interestingly, the combined annual GDP of 57 OIC-countries is under $2
trillion.
America, just by herself, produces goods and services worth $12 trillion;
China $8 trillion, Japan $3.8 trillion and Germany $2.4 trillion (purchasing
power parity basis).
Oil rich Saudi Arabia, UAE, Kuwait and Qatar collectively produce goods
and services (mostly oil) worth $500 billion;
Spain alone produces goods and services worth over $1 trillion,
Catholic Poland $489 billion and Buddhist Thailand $545 billion.
(Muslim GDP as a percentage of world GDP is fast declining).
So, why are Muslims so powerless?
Answer: Lack of education!
All we do is shout to Allah whole day and blame everyone else for our multiple
failures..!. ...
