setuju !! .. kalo anda bilang :Yang makmur adalah yang berpendidikan yang sesuai dengan kebutuhan pasar.
dan contoh wanita yg anda sebut dibawah kayaknya kurang representatif deh... masalahnya, di jogja, semarang, surabaya banyak wanita berpendidikan S1 hanya bekerja sbg pelayan toko yang gajinya jauh di bawah UMR (Upah Minimal Regional), jelas ini jauh dari yg anda maksud (berpendidikan yang sesuai dengan kebutuhan pasar ) Di Bengkulu, wanita berpendidikan S1 Tekhnik Kimia, bekerja bag.Lab Pabrik Air Mineral lokal, gajinya Rp.800.000,- sementara ongkos transport umum dr rumahnya ke pabrik Rp.10.000 Yang makmur adalah bila negara sudah bisa memberi lapangan kerja seperti yg anda maksud : Memberi lapangan kerja sesuai dengan pendidikan. Kembali ke TKW / TKI, kenapa banyak TKW yg disiksa di LN.: asal tau aja, para TKW itu kbanyakan berasal dr kluarga miskin yg buta peralatan rmh-tangga modern, trus disuruh kerja di salah satu kluarga yg peralatan RT-nya sdh memakai technologi, baik itu mesin cuci, kompor, roaster ato pakaian yg tidak sembarangan disetrika... rendahnya pendidikan TKW ini yg membuat kesalahan² di dalam bekerja...akhirnya kena siksa majikannya ________________________________ From: Teddy S. <[email protected]> Upah di negara-negara lain yang lebih besar merupakan alasan mereka untuk bekerja di sana. Misalkan upah minimum yang berlaku di Australia bagi orang dewasa sekarang adalah A$ 15,51 per jam. Yang makmur adalah yang berpendidikan yang sesuai dengan kebutuhan pasar. Misalnya saja ditahun 2008 ada seorang wanita lulusan universitas lokal di Surabaya yang bekerja disebuah konsultan asing di Jakarta dengan gaji Rp. 30 juta per bulan + biaya mobil Rp. 7 juta per bulan. Pendapatan ini walaupun tidak sebesar pendapatan untuk posisi yang sama di Australia, tapi biaya hidup dan pajak di Indonesia jauh lebih rendah. Ini khan namanya sudah bisa disebut makmur. --- In [email protected], ayub yahya <ayubyahya@...> wrote: > > bro... anda nulis : > "Dengan jadi TKW atau TKI, pendapatan mereka lebih besar daripada sebelumnya". > > disini yg dimaksud 'sebelumnya' .. kalo kerja di negara sendiri kan?! > disinilah 'problem'nya, kenapa bisa begitu ? .. yg makmur yg mana nih ?! > > sementara menjadi TKW dan TKI sama aja jadi pembokat dinegeri orang lho... > > kalo kerja ke LN, sebagai konsultan ato staff-ahli, lain soal deh > dibanding sebagai TKW ato TKI > > cewe² jepun/aussie, banyak yg berlibur ke Bali, > kalo mereka balik ke jepang/aussie masih punya duit > di banding kalo gak pergi berlibur ke Bali > maksudnya, kalo mereka tetap tinggal di negaranya. > > krn living cost negara makmur ama blom makmur emang jauh beda > > > > > > ________________________________ > From: Teddy S. <teddyr@...> >  > > >  > Kemakmuran bisa dikatakan jarang ada yang merata, termasuk untuk > negara-negara komunis yang konon punya prinsip semuanya sama rata. > Bertambahnya jumlah yang makmur menunjukan adanya peluang untuk bisa makmur. > Seperti biasa yang bisa memanfaatkan peluang jumlahnya terbatas. > > Dengan jadi TKW atau TKI, pendapatan mereka lebih besar daripada sebelumnya. > Ada cerita sang suami menggunakan dana asal istrinya yang jadi TKW untuk > kawin lagi. > > --- In [email protected], ayub yahya <ayubyahya@> wrote: > > > > anda benar ..!! > > tapi bandingkan jumlah wanita yang jalan² ke eropa buat blanja tasLouis > > Vuitton > > dengan wanita yang berangkat utk jadi TKW ato TKI > > > > sebandingkah dgn kemakmuran ?! > > > > > > > > ________________________________ > > From: Teddy S. <teddyr@> > >  > > > > > >  > > Ada orang dogol yang tidak bisa melihat kenyataan bahwa orang-orang > > Indonesia yang semakin makmur itu jumlahnya semakin banyak.
