Kok pada aneh sih PhD jadi sopir taksi? Saya kira itu sebuah peristiwa yg 
jarang terjadi,  n ga perlu disikapi dgn aneh. Kalo sopir taksi di singapur ato 
indonesia PhD semua, nah itu baru fenomena penting yg perlu didiskusikan lebih 
lanjut.

Sebagaimana saya tidak aneh kalo ada lulusan SD atau bahkan tak lulus SD yg 
sukses jd konglomerat. Kecuali kalo semua konglomerat ga lulus sd atau hanya 
lulus sd, baru saya ingin pingsan.

Saya juga ga aneh ketika ada orang seperti Noe vokalis Letto yg mendalami 
matematika sampe s2 di luar negeri, tp sedari awal dia sudah menetapkan bhw 
ilmu kematematikaannya itu tdk utk pekerjaan, tp hanya utk kesukaan n 
kepenasarannya aja akan ilmu itu. Dan utk pekerjaan, dia memilih jd musisi.

Mas Harya, topik diskusinya terlalu luas. S3 dengan spesialisasi / spesifikasi 
ilmu seperti apa yang menganggur atau yang cenderung menganggur ? Pada usia 
berapa mereka cenderung menganggur ? Masih banyak pertanyaan lain, tetapi jika 
dua pertanyaan itu bisa disediakan jawabannya, minimal kita bisa diskusi lebih 
jernih, nggak seperti melihat gerakan-gerakan di dalam karung lantas kita duga 
ada kucing di dalam karung.

S3 memang bukan tipe penyadong pekerjaan. Jika dia bergerak di bidang ilmu 
pasti dia berada di punca piramida ilmu, minimal di puncak piramida ilmu yang 
dibangunnya sendiri meskipun kecil nggak sebesar milik para Firaun di Mesir. 
Apakah ada data statistik tentang pengangguran S3 ? Atau bagaimana caranya bisa 
memperdalam diskusi dengan landasan yang mantap ?

Salam,



Djarot Purbadi

Kalau di Jakarta, Supir Taxi seperti ini adanya.
Lebih baik dari PhD kah? btw, sekarang ini billing rate (bersih) untuk standar 
S3 berapa sih?

Apa ada pengguna jasa S3 yang bersedia berbagi?

Salam,

Ownership scheme boosts drivers' income



The Jakarta Post, Jakarta



"I've been waiting for five years and a half for this moment.

Thank God, this will help me fund my kids' education," says

43-year old Mohammad Badrun, looking at his white 2003 Toyota

Soluna, stroking its windshield.



The shiny sedan formerly belonged to Express Group taxi

operator. But starting Thursday last week, Badrun, the driver,

could claim it his own thanks to switch of its ownership from

the company to him.



"I will sell this car soon. I need the money to send my daughter

to high school," the father of two told The Jakarta Post

recently.



With a fluctuating daily income, Badrun realized his children

had little chance of higher education if he relied on his daily

earnings as taxi driver.



With only a Rp. 4,5 million of down payment, Badrun can own a Rp

50 million car after five years.



"I pay Rp. 140,000 to the company everyday. That includes the

daily instalment for the car."



This partnership program is called the Taxicab Ownership Scheme

and conducted by Express Group.



Since the program kicked off in 1997, Badrun has owned two cars.



His first was a Ford Laser which he sold in 2003.



"This program has helped me and my family a lot since the first

time I worked for Express in 1994," he said.



Another driver, Jumadi, has owned three cars thanks to the

scheme.



"I choose to pay bigger daily instalments so that I can own the

car after four years," said the 45-year old, who has worked for

Express for 20 years.



Badrun and Jumadi were among 90 Express' taxi drivers who

claimed the ownerships of their cars this year.



Express, which claims to be the second-largest taxi operator in

Indonesia, will have handed over a total of 500 Toyota Soluna

cars to their drivers by the end of this year.



For those who already have their Soluna cars, the company will

hand over a brand new Toyota Limo as their new cars.



Express Group President Director Daniel Podiman said the

partnership program was aimed at helping to fight poverty by

forging a mutually beneficial partnership with Express' 6,000

drivers.



"In addition, this scheme will increase the drivers' senses of

belonging because they know the fleets they are driving will be

their own in the future," Daniel said.



With a sense of belonging, he said, the driver would also be

better in taking care of their cars and driving more safely on

the Jakarta's busy streets.



This program has been recognized by the United Nations

Development Programme (UNDP) as one of its case study strategies

for eradicating poverty through business partnerships.



The UNDP has selected Indonesia's Express Group one of 50

companies worldwide as the models for its program called

"Creating Value For All: Strategies for Doing Business with the

Poor". (bbs)

      Ini dr mailing list tetangga:

Di Berlin, 1987, saya berbincang dg sopir taxi dan teman2 mhsiswa. Menurut 
mereka, pendapatan sopir taxi memang lebih besar dari dosen dg gelar PhD. Saya 
tidak tahu gaji pencuci piring.

Saya juga tdk tahu keadaan sekarang. Saya tidak tanya pendapatan sopir taxi di 
New York, tapi pada tahun 1999, sekali narik dari Manhattan ke JFK $47, kurang 
dari 1 jam.
Waktu itu gaji redaktur di NYT $250,000 setahun, sedangkan di Alabama $40,000 
setahun. Di Indonesia, gaji wartawan di koran2 besar lebih besar dari Prof Dr,  
tapi sekarang setelah ada kenaikan gaji Prof Dr yg mencapi Rp20juta/bulan, gaji 
wartawan jadi kalah jauh sekali(Ridlo)

                         Dear All,


Kalau di Indonesia kan musiman, kalau lagi gini ini sebaiknya PhD jangan nyopir 
taksi....tapi jual timun suri atau blewah...atau kurma. 

Tapi sindiran Pak BTS itu benar, kawan saya dosen ITB, jurusan Cume Laude (dr 
S1 sd PhD) saya amati santai saja, gak ngejar proyek. Suatu hari di perjalanan 
ke bioskop saya berpapasan dengan dia yang lagi nyetir pick-up penuh telor. 
Rupanya dia bisa tenang ndosen karena usaha telor ayamnya jalan. Kayaknya 
oke-oke saja buat dia antara mendosen dan menelor. 


Saya kira polanya jelas. Kalau 'mereka' itu ada tantangan langsung action, tak 
bisa lain. Tapi kenapa ya kalau 'kita' ada tantangan apapun langsung ingat 
'pemerintah', ngomeli, atau usul perubahan UU, PP, Perda...pdhl kita tahu ini = 
nunggu godot.


Salam,
Risfan Munir

Dear all Soalnya Phd yang jadi sopir taxi itu namanya Cai Ming Jai (Chinese) 
sih,  atau mungkin ada Phd yang jadi sopir taxi namanya Shappor Khan (India). 
Coba  Sugiono, Phd atau  Bambang Tata S, Phd, pasti gengsi deh, nggak mau. 
Mending jadi reseacher walaupun gajinya lebih rendah, atau balik ke Indonesia 
jadi konsultan. Sorry Mas Onno, he-he-he
 Thanks. CU. BTS.
