[ppiindia] Indahnya Bekerja
Indahnya Bekerja By: agussyafii Pagi hari motor sudah berbunyi. Hana putri saya menyapa, 'Ayah mau berangkat kerja ya?' saya menjawab dengan menganggukkan kepala. "Hana bareng ya yah..berangkat sekolah.' Pagi hari berangkat sekolah sambil mengantar Hana sekolah. Lambaian tangan istri saya turut menyertai disaat motor melaju. Menikmati indahnya matahari pagi, bertegur sapa dengan tetangga adalah kebahagiaan tersendiri buat saya. Bekerja itu pada dasarnya menyenangkan sebab letih karena bekerja terasa lebih nikmat daripada lebih karena tidak mengerjakan apapun. Itulah sebabnya bekerja keras berapapun hasilnya yang penting halal akan membawa keberkahan di dalam hidup kita, di dalam keberkahan itulah yang mendatangkan kebahagiaan dan ketenteraman dihati bagi kita dan keluarga kita. Apabila kita dalam kesendirian, tidak ada aktifitas pekerjaan akan membuat tubuh kita terasa letih dan mudah lelah. Keletihan itu menyerap segala energi yang ada dipikiran, hati dan tubuh kita. Apalagi sudah tidak ada aktifitas ditambah dengan keinginan bermacam-macam akan membuat hati dan pikiran menjadi tidak jernih sehingga mudah marah dan tersinggung karena hal-hal yang sepele. Berbeda jika kita bekerja dan ada aktifitas produktif, dengan bekerja kita mempunyai kesempatan untuk berbagi kebahagiaan dengan orang lain sehingga pekerjaan dan profesi yang kita jalani membawa ketenteraman di dalam hati. Maka nikmatilah pekerjaan kita, karena memang bekerja adalah ibadah, pengabdian kita kepada Allah Subhanahu Wata'ala dan sudah menjadi tanggungjawab kita sebagai seorang mukmin. Sekalipun letih dan lelah dengan cepat membuat tubuh dan pikiran kita menjadi bugar kembali. Apalagi disaat menerima hasilnya atau gajian tiba, Wuih, semriwing...!

[ppiindia] Gus Dur: Budaya Kita di Masa Peralihan
Budaya Kita di Masa Peralihan Oleh: KH. Abdurrahman Wahid Senin, 28 Juni 2004 Beberapa tahun lalu, Lembaga Ilmu Pengetahuan Indonesia menyelenggarakan lokakarya, membicarakan hasil-hasil penelitiannya mengenai 14 macam budaya daerah yang ada di Indonesia, terutama yang memainkan peran penting dalam masa peralihan bangsa dari tradisional memasuki modern. Salah satu di antaranya adalah budaya daerah di Ngada, Flores Timur. Penelitian menemukan, di kawasan itu belum ada pengadilan negeri. Maka, masih banyak diberlakukan sistem hukum adat Ngada guna mengatur kehidupan masyarakat yang sudah berfungsi ratusan tahun. Ketika bertandang ke Maumere di pulau yang sama tahun ini, penulis berdialog dengan civitas academica Sekolah Tinggi Filsafat Ledalero, penulis mendengar adanya pergulatan hukum di Larantuka. Ternyata di kawasan Pulau Flores sebelah timur itu, Pengadilan Negeri Larantuka telah mengganti hukum adat dengan hukum positif nasional. Sayang, penelitian empiris tentang pergantian fungsi hukum tidak sempat dilakukan saat itu. Bahkan rakyat tiba-tiba dihadapkan fenomena: kolusi antara sistem peradilan yang bersandar pada "mafia peradilan" di mana-mana, yang tentu akan membela kepentingan kekuasaan; dan melupakan perikemanusiaan dalam masalah hak-hak milik rakyat atas tanah. Untuk menguasai hak milik rakyat atas tanah adat yang sudah mereka miliki/ garap selama berabad-abad, keputusan Bupati Larantuka sebagai penguasa daerah dibenarkan pengadilan negeri setempat melalui perundang-undangan yang tidak pernah diuji Mahkamah Agung tentang status, apakah rangkaian Undang-Undang (UU) dan peraturan yang dikeluarkan tentang penguasaan tanah melanggar UUD atau tidak? Kita ketahui, hak-hak penguasa seperti itu "didiktekan" pihak eksekutif selama bertahun-tahun, melalui proses legislatif yang timpang dan Mahkamah Agung yang termasuk jajaran mafia peradilan. Patutkah kita heran bila terjadi korban jiwa dalam kasus yang mengakibatkan rakyat berhadapan dengan penguasa. Ironisnya, pemda memberi mereka "santunan sosial" "sesuai UU". Dalam beberapa kasus, aneka kejadian seperti itu diprotes lembaga kemasyarakatan. Dalam kasus tanah rakyat di Larantuka, ternyata "digarap" seseorang pastor dari Keuskupan Larantuka, yang pembelaannya dibawa ke sidang Pengadilan Negeri Larantuka, dan akhirnya diterbitkan sebagai buku (yang memihak rakyat) oleh staf keuskupan itu. Keberanian moral seperti itu jelas menunjukkan, telah muncul "peran baru" kaum agamawan yang turut ambil bagian dalam proses demokratisasi. Hal seperti ini juga terjadi tahun 1990-an, saat sepasang pria-wanita menuntut pengakuan moral dan status jelas dari perkawinan agama Khonghucu yang mereka lakukan, yang saat itu oleh Kantor Catatan Sipil Surabaya dianggap tidak ada. Perkara itu, oleh Pengadilan Negeri Surabaya, implisit dinyatakan melanggar UUD. Namun, dalam pelaksanaannya mengalami aneka hambatan dari birokrasi karena pertimbangan politik yang dipaksakan oleh system politik kita yang ada demi kepentingan sepihak. Dengan serta-merta, Khonghucu dinyatakan oleh penguasa sebagai "filsafat hidup". Mereka lupa, jutaan warga Khonghucu di negeri ini merasa Khonghucu adalah sebuah agama. Bahwa ada pihak lain, seperti Partai Komunis Tiongkok dan Pemerintah Singapura yang telah menganggapnya sebagai "filsafat hidup", tidak sekali-kali menghilangkan kewajiban kita untuk berpegang kepada anggapan kaum Tionghoa sendiri di negeri ini. Cara melihat perubahan sosial ini sebenarnya harus memasuki segala aspek kehidupan kita sebagai bangsa. Dengan demikian, proses peralihan bangsa berjalan alami. Ada yang tetap dan tidak mengalami perubahan, seperti prinsip moral/etika yang mengatur kehidupan kita; tetapi ada pula yang mengalami perubahan, terutama mengenai "manifestasi" prinsip itu akibat proses modernisasi. Pemahaman yang benar atas perubahan-perubahan sosial yang terjadi dalam kehidupan kita tidak mudah dipetakan. Namun, tanpa "peta budaya", kita akan lebih banyak mengalami "kehilangan budaya" yang tidak dapat diganti oleh apa pun dalam kehidupan kita sebagai bangsa. Dengan kata lain, kita akan mengalami aneka perubahan sosial yang liar, yang tentunya sama-sama tidak diingini. Apalagi perubahan-perubahan itu menyangkut hampir seluruh aspek kehidupan kita sebagai bangsa. Kita tentu tidak mengingini perubahan asal berubah sehingga kita kembali tertinggal dalam mencari keseimbangan antara hal-hal material dan imaterial, atau sering disebut sebagai "pembangunan material" dan "pembangunan spiritual". Kita menginginkan keseimbangan yang secara relatif akan mengarahkan nilai-nilai yang berkembang, menjadi sesuatu yang positif dan konstruktif bagi kehidupan bangsa dalam jangka panjang. Karena itu, mau tidak mau kita harus memahami proses modernisasi dan tradisionalisme. Adalah sebuah kehormatan, juga berarti tantangan, untuk mengelola perubahan demi perubahan sosial itu sendiri. Salah satu hal yang harus diperhatikan, menjaga tidak terjadi penghentian perubahan so
[ppiindia] China supercomputer named second-fastest in global list, U.S. holds overall lead
http://www.tehrantimes.com/NCms/2007.asp?code=220613 www.tehrantimes.com China supercomputer named second-fastest in global list, U.S. holds overall lead BEIJING (AP) -- A Chinese supercomputer has been ranked the world's second-fastest machine in a list issued by U.S. and European researchers, highlighting China's ambitions to become a global technology center. The Nebulae system at the National Supercomputing Centre in Shenzhen in southern China came in behind the U.S. Department of Energy's Jaguar in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, according to the list released Monday. Supercomputers are used for complex work such as modeling weather systems, simulating nuclear explosions and designing jetliners. The semiannual TOP500 list highlighted Beijing's efforts to join the United States, Europe and Japan in the global technology elite and its sharp increases in research spending, driven by booming economic growth. It also reflected China's continued reliance on Western know-how: Nebulae was built by China's Dawning Information Industry Ltd. but uses processors from Intel Corp. and Nvidia Corp., both American companies. The Nebulae is capable of sustained computing of 1.271 petaflops - or 1,271 trillion calculations - per second, according to TOP500. It said the Jaguar was capable of sustained computing of 1.75 petaflops. The Chinese computer ranked first in theoretical computing speed at 2.98 petaflops, the group said. The list was compiled by Hans Meuer of the University of Mannheim, Germany; Erich Strohmaier and Horst Simon of NERSC/Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and Jack Dongarra of the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. The communist Beijing government wants China to evolve from a low-cost factory into an prosperous "innovation society." A 15-year government plan issued in 2006 promises support for areas ranging from computers to lasers to genetics. Boosted by Nebulae's performance, China rose to No. 2 overall on the TOP500 list with 24 of the 500 systems on the list and 9.2 percent of global supercomputing capacity, up from 21 systems six months ago. The United States held onto its overall lead with 282 of the 500 systems and 55.4 percent of installed performance. Europe had 144 systems on the list, including 38 in Britain, 29 in France and 24 in Germany. Elsewhere in Asia, Japan had 18 supercomputers on the list, up from 16 six months ago, and India had five. A second Chinese computer also made the Top 10. The Tianhe-1 at the National Super Computer Center in the eastern city of Tianjin, at No. 7, uses processors made by Intel and Advanced Micro Devices Inc., another American company. The list also reflected breakneck advances in supercomputing speeds. No. 1 on the June 2008 list was the Roadrunner system at the Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico, capable of 1.04 petaflops, or about two-thirds of Jaguar's level. In the latest list, Roadrunner dropped to No. 3. [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
[ppiindia] The flotilla fiasco
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/05/31/AR2010053103160.html?wpisrc=nl_pmopinions The flotilla fiasco Tuesday, June 1, 2010 THE ISRAELI commandos who landed on the deck of the Turkish ferry Mavi Marmara off the coast of the Gaza Strip early Monday were totally unprepared for what they encountered: dozens of militants who swarmed around them with knives and iron bars. The result was a bloody battle in which at least nine passengers were killed -- and a diplomatic debacle for the government of Binyamin Netanyahu. Though the investigations to come will find many to blame, it's already clear that Israel's response to the pro-Palestinian flotilla was both misguided and badly executed. We have no sympathy for the motives of the participants in the flotilla -- a motley collection that included European sympathizers with the Palestinian cause, Israeli Arab leaders and Turkish Islamic activists. Israel says that some of the organizers have ties to Hamas and al-Qaeda. What's plain is that the group's nominal purpose, delivering "humanitarian" supplies to Gaza, was secondary to the aim of provoking a confrontation. The flotilla turned down an Israeli offer to unload the six boats and deliver the goods to Gaza by truck; it ignored repeated warnings that it would not be allowed to reach Gaza. Its spokesmen said they would insist on "breaking Israel's siege," as one of them put it. Yet the threat to Israel was political rather than military. So far there's been no indication the boats carried missiles or other arms for Hamas. Mr. Netanyahu's aim should have been to prevent the militants from creating the incident they were hoping for. Allowing the boats to dock in Gaza, as Israel had done before, would have been better than sending military commandos to intercept them. The fact that the soldiers who roped down from helicopters to the lead Turkish ferry were unprepared to subdue its passengers without using lethal force only compounded the error. Israel will now endure days, if not months, of condemnations by its many enemies. Middle East peace talks are at risk again, as are Israel's once-strong relations with Turkey. What was to have been a conciliatory meeting between Mr. Netanyahu and President Obama Tuesday has been cancelled. The White House has been properly cautious so far in responding to the incident; it should be careful to distinguish itself in the coming days from the anti-Israeli chorus. U.S. diplomacy should aim at ensuring that the inevitable calls for an international investigation do not lead to another one-sided setup like the United Nations' Goldstone commission, whose report on Israel's 2008 invasion of Gaza has become another weapon in the international campaign to de-legitimize the Jewish state. As for Mr. Netanyahu, the only road to recovery from this disaster lies in embracing, once and for all, credible steps to create conditions for a Palestinian state. A good start would be easing restrictions on both Gaza and the West Bank, once the reactions to Monday's events subside. Mr. Netanyahu also needs to broaden his government to include pro-peace parties; one of his main problems is cabinet hawks who have made Israeli diplomacy an oxymoron. The prime minister is in a deepening hole; his only way out is to move to the center. [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
[ppiindia] U.N. Security Council Condemns 'Acts' in Israeli Raid
http://www.nytimes.com/2010/06/02/world/middleeast/02nations.html?ref=global-home U.N. Security Council Condemns 'Acts' in Israeli Raid By NEIL MacFARQUHAR and ALAN COWELL Published: June 1, 2010 UNITED NATIONS - After hours of negotiations, the United Nations Security Council early on Tuesday condemned "acts" resulting in the deaths of nine civilians in Israel's attack on an aid flotilla trying to breach the Gaza blockade. In a formal statement that seemed less forceful than what had been demanded by the Palestinians, Arab nations and Turkey, the council also demanded an impartial investigation into the confrontation. The statement urged that aid ships seized in the raid on Monday be released along with civilians held by Israel. "The Security Council deeply regrets the loss of life and injuries resulting from the use of force during the Israeli military operation in international waters against the convoy sailing to Gaza," the statement said, adding that the 15-member body "in this context, condemns those acts which resulted in the loss" of lives. The wording seemed designed to dilute demands for condemnation exclusively of Israel, which argues that its soldiers acted in self-defense in response to violent resistance to their interception of the vessels from passengers on board. After the raid, Israel seized hundreds of activists as well as the ships. "The Security Council requests the immediate release of the ships as well as the civilians held by Israel," the United Nations statement said, calling for "a prompt, impartial, credible and transparent investigation conforming to international standards." It also said the situation in Gaza, under blockade by Israel, was "not sustainable" and called for a "sustained and regular flow of goods and people to Gaza, as well as unimpeded provision and distribution of humanitarian assistance throughout Gaza." On the broader Palestinian-Israeli confrontation, the Security Council renewed calls for a two-state solution and voiced concern that the raid on the flotilla took place while United States-sponsored so-called "proximity talks" were under way. Earlier, Turkey - the unofficial sponsor of the convoy - had proposed a statement that would have condemned Israel for violating international law and demanded a United Nations investigation, the prosecution of those responsible for the raid and compensation for the victims. It also called for the end of the blockade. But the Obama administration refused to endorse a statement that singled out Israel, and it proposed a broader condemnation of the violence that would include the assault by passengers of the Israeli commandos as they landed on the deck of the ship. As the wrangling continued late Monday night and in the early hours Tuesday, the two countries were trying to work out their differences on the wording, including whether to specify that the investigation should be conducted by outsiders, diplomats said. While condemnation of Israel in the Security Council is not uncommon, the criticism at the emergency session called by Turkey and Lebanon was notable for both its vehemence and for the broad array of countries demanding an independent investigation into the decision to fire on civilians in what they described as a humanitarian mission. Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu of Turkey, whose country's once close relations with Israel have deteriorated markedly since Israel's invasion of Gaza in 2009, called the attack "tantamount to banditry and piracy; it is murder conducted by a state." Noting that the ships were carrying items such as a playground equipment, cancer medicine and milk powder, he said that given the history of the Jews the Israelis should be more conscious than others of "the dangers and inhumanity of ghettoes as the one we currently witness in occupied Gaza." Gerard Araud, the French ambassador, said the death toll indicated "there was disproportionate use of force and a level of violence which nothing justifies and which we condemn." Nawaf Salam, the Lebanese ambassador, said even the laws of war require the delivery of humanitarian aid. Several envoys said Israel was in violation of international law, not least because Security Council resolution 1860, passed in January 2009 during the Gaza war, had called for ending the blockade and opening unfettered access to humanitarian assistance throughout the strip. The diplomats also demanded immediate access to their citizens, with some 32 different nationalities among the estimated 600 to 700 people on the flotilla. Israel seized all six ships and forced them into port. The United States, which habitually defends Israel in the council, said that the attempt to run the blockade by sea was ill advised. "Direct delivery by sea is neither appropriate nor responsible, and certainly not effective, under the circumstances," said Alejandro Wolff, the deputy permanent repre
[ppiindia] Kisah bulan terbelah dua
http://www.utusan.com.my/utusan/info.asp?y=2010&dt=0602&pub=Utusan_Malaysia&sec=Bicara_Agama&pg=ba_01.htm Kisah bulan terbelah dua Susunan SITI AINIZA KAMSARI ainiza.kams...@utusan.com.my UMAT di zaman Rasulullah SAW dianggap sangat bertuah. Tidak sahaja mereka berpeluang bertemu dengan baginda namun yang lebih beruntungnya lagi dapat melihat sendiri segala kejadian-kejadian mukjizat yang Allah kurniakan kepada baginda. Ini termasuklah kejadian bulan terbelah dua, antara yang benar-benar berlaku dalam usaha Nabi Muhammad untuk menyakinkan kebenaran dakwah baginda itu. Jika kita menjadi pengikut baginda ketika itu, tentu segala kejadian mukjizat yang berlaku akan menambahkan lagi keimanan atau kepercayaan kepada Allah SWT. Namun, perkara seperti ini sukar diterima oleh puak-puak kafir Quraisy. Mereka tetap dengan sikap degil mereka. Walaupun peristiwa Israk dan Mikraj tidak ada sebarang kesangsian, dengan segala macam bukti dan keterangan daripada al-Quran namun kedegilan tetap makin menebal! Malah mereka sendiri kadang kala meminta baginda tunjukkan bukti! Kononnya dengan bukti tersebut mereka akan menyerah kalah kepada kebenaran. Namun yang sebenarnya mempunyai niat yang busuk, kononnya Rasulullah tidak akan mampu menunjukkan sebarang bukti kerana yang diminta semuanya bersifat luar biasa dan tidak masuk dek akal. Andai, bukti tersebut gagal ditunjukkan oleh baginda maka semakin galaklah mereka memusuhi dan mengeji Nabi. Namun baginda tetap menyahut apa juga cabaran, asalkan mereka akhirnya percaya kepada keesaan Allah yang Maha Agung. Iaitu pada suatu hari, sekumpulan pembesar Quraisy itu datang menemui baginda, iaitu di antara mereka termasuklah Al Walid Al Mughirah, Abu Jahal Hisham, Al As Wail, Al Aswad Muthalib, An Nadhru Al Harith. Peristiwa ini dikatakan berlaku sebelum baginda melakukan hijrah ke Madinah dan diriwayatkan dalam banyak catatan sejarah sehinggalah mengikut sastera Melayu klasik sendiri, kisah bulan terbelah dua ini menjadi kisah-kisah penglipur lara yang popular. Dalam Hikayat Nur Muhammad dan Nabi Bercukur dan Nabi Wafat misalnya, ada diceritakan mengenai kisah bulan terbelah ini, pada bahagian kedua dari tiga bahagian yang ada, iaitu: Hikayat Nabi Bercukur iaitu menceritakan mukjizat Nabi SAW, kisah bulan terbelah. Hikayat ini telah diterjemahkan ke dalam rumi dengan tajuk Bunga Rampai Sastera Melayu Warisan Islam terbitan Dewan Bahasa dan Pustaka (DBP). Para pembesar itu mencabar baginda supaya menunjukkan mukjizat yang mereka mahu melihat sendiri melalui mata kepala walaupun mereka sepatutnya telah beriman dengan pengalaman perjalanan Nabi Muhamad sepanjang Israk dan Mikraj itu yang lalu, adalah benar. Mereka berkata, "Jika kamu seorang yang benar (seorang nabi yang diutuskan oleh Allah) belahkan bulan yang sedang mengambang penuh pada malam ini kepada dua bahagian". "Adakah jika permintaan ini dipenuhi, kalian berjanji untuk menerima dakwahku dan kita semua bersama-sama menyembah Allah, tuhan yang satu?" kata baginda pula. Pembesar-pembesar itu pun menganggukkan kepala tanda bersetuju terhadap syarat yang Rasulullah berikan. Lalu baginda pun berdoa dan memohon kepada Allah untuk membelah bulan sebagai perkara yang luar biasa untuk dijadikan tanda dan bukti kekuasaan Allah Yang Maha Tinggi. Sejurus kemudian tanpa disangka oleh para pembesar Quraisy itu mereka dapat menyaksikan sendiri bagaimana bulan mengambang penuh yang menghiasi langit pada malam itu bukan sahaja terbelah kepada dua bahagian. Tetapi terpisah menjauhkan diri antara satu sama lain. Separuh boleh dilihat di sebalik gunung di sebelah kiri dan separuh atau sebahagian bulan lagi dapat disaksikan berada pada sebalik gunung di sebelah kanan dengan keadaan masih bercahaya. Bulan tidak lagi berbentuk bulat sebagaimana lazimnya! Mereka yang menyaksikan dalam antara percaya dengan tidak, hampir-hampir tidak mendengar apabila baginda berkata; "Saksikanlah kejadian ini iaitu sebagai bukti kebenaran mukjizat yang dikurniakan Allah dan risalah kenabian yang Allah amanahkan kepadaku," Begitu pun setelah menyaksikan kejadian yang sungguh luar biasa itu pun, kalangan kafir Quraisy tidak menepati janji, mereka tidak mahu mempercayai apa tah lagi untuk menerima dakwah nabi. Sedangkan kejadian bulan terbelah ini memang benar-benar berlaku dan wajib dipercayai. Walaupun ada yang mempertikaikannya kerana bertentangan dengan sains dan akal yang waras namun atas nama mukjizat, kelebihan yang diberikan kepada Rasulullah ia tidak dapat dibuktikan secara saintifik. Sebagaimana kebanyakan mukjizat-mukjizat yang Allah berikan kepada para nabi sebelum Nabi Muhammad. Ini termasuk mukjizat Nabi Isa a.s yang boleh menghidupkan orang yang telah mati, tiada sesiapa yang dapat pertikaikan lagi. Walaupun pada hakikatnya, yang mati tetap akan mati, tidak mungkin akan hidup kembali. Kejadian bulan terbelah dua ini sebenarnya disaksikan oleh seluruh penduduk
[ppiindia] International-Standard Schools Cater to the Rich, Critics Charge
http://www.thejakartaglobe.com/home/international-standard-schools-cater-to-the-rich-critics-charge/378247 June 01, 2010 Ulma Haryanto International-Standard Schools Cater to the Rich, Critics Charge While countless parents across Greater Jakarta pay extra fees for what is claimed to be a high-quality education for their children, many of these international-standard schools merely cater to the rich, Indonesia Corruption Watch said on Tuesday. "The commercialization of education is backed by the government," Ade Irawan of the ICW said. "The 2003 law on the national education system states that SBIs [international-standard schools] and RSBIs [state schools in the process of attaining international standards] are to charge extra fees for high-quality education. The fact is, however, that the existence of such schools will widen the gap between the rich and the poor." Ade's statement came two days after the government prepared to launch an evaluation of international-standard schools to ensure that they live up to their promises. "There is a growing need for high-quality education. This need is being turned into an opportunity by some state schools to make a killing," Ade said. The requirements in the law for turning a state school into an international-standard institution are flawed because, among other things, they focus mainly on the facilities the school can provide, he said. Some observers have demanded that the schools be scrapped altogether because they threaten to price low-income students out of a quality education. Every district or city in the country, according to the law, is obliged to turn at least one state school into an international-standard institution, with lessons in two languages, fewer students to a classroom and a curriculum integrating both national and international educational standards, including adopting a foreign curriculum from a developed nation. The cost of the enhanced education standards provided by international-standard schools is borne by the students. Suparman, who heads the Indonesian Independent Teachers Federation, has said the idea of international-standard schools runs contrary to the Constitution, which mandates that the government provide every child in the country the same access to education. Panjar, a math teacher at SMPN RSBI 182 state junior high school in Kalibata, South Jakarta, which is in the process of achieving international standards, said the only difference, to his knowledge, at his school would be that he would have to teach in English. "The school has just declared its transition toward international standards for the 2010-11 school year, and we teachers received the notification in May," Panjar said. "We have already had one training session in conversational English." Nina Feyruzi, an English teacher at a state high school in South Jakarta, said the ambitious international-standards program was not accompanied by adequate human resources. "In order for a school to move from RSBI to SBI, the Ministry of Education gives it three years to prepare itself. Some schools outsource teachers who have experience in private schools so that existing teachers can learn from them," she said. However, she said, most teachers were too old to learn. "When the ministry's people came for an inspection, the only thing they looked at was whether the school had enough PCs or LCD screens," Nina said. "Textbooks are also a problem, because the schools use bilingual textbooks that are published locally and have many grammatical or terminology errors." Agus Hidayat, a parent in Tangerang, said he knew of two schools in Greater Jakarta where parents were asked to fill in a questionnaire declaring the amount they were willing to contribute for those schools to achieve international-standards qualification.

[ppiindia] Sebaiknya Nasionalisasi Perusahaan Migas - Bls: Politik Energi Yang Berbau Kolonial
Lebih baik pemerintah fokus pada menasionalisasi perusahaan migas yang jelas tidak efisien dan menarik untung sebesar2nya. Jika presiden Venezuela Hugo Chavez dan Bolivia Evo Morales bisa menasionalisasi perusahaan asing, saya yakin bangsa Indonesia yang jauh lebih besar bisa. Harga minyak oleh kartel minyak dinaikan dari US$ 24/barrel jadi US$ 80/barrel hanya dalam beberapa tahun. Ini maruk, serahak, loba, tamak, dsb. Tidak pantas rakyat Indonesia menanggung kenaikan harga minyak yang dinaikkan oleh perusahaan2 migas swasta/asing yang serakah. Lebih baik nasionalisasi perusahaan2 tsb ketimbang rakyat harus menderita karena kenaikan harga. === Belajar Islam sesuai Al Qur'an dan Hadits http://media-islam.or.id Milis Ekonomi Nasional: ekonomi-nasional-subscr...@yahoogroups.com Belajar Islam via SMS: http://media-islam.or.id/2008/01/14/dakwah-syiar-islam-lewat-sms-mobile-phone --- Pada Sen, 31/5/10, ulfha_raz menulis: Dari: ulfha_raz Judul: [ekonomi-nasional] Politik Energi Yang Berbau Kolonial Kepada: ekonomi-nasio...@yahoogroups.com Tanggal: Senin, 31 Mei, 2010, 9:02 PM Politik Energi Yang Berbau Kolonial Oleh: Rudi Hartono*) Pemerintah memastikan akan mencabut subsidi BBM dalam waktu dekat, demikian dikatakan Menkokesra Agung Laksono seperti dilansir Kompas, 29 mei 2010. Selanjutnya, menurut Menkokesra ini, pemerintah akan menggantinya dengan mekanisme pemberian kompensasi-kompensasi kepada sektor rakyat tertentu. Sungguh, ini bukan sekedar sebuah penjelasan yang dangkal, melainkan juga pernyataan yang sangat mengelabui. Lihatlah, setiap kali pemerintah hendak mencabut subsidi, logika berfikir seperti ini terus dikemukakan. Rakyat kembali menjadi korban, terutama mereka yang sudah "ngos-ngosan" menghadapi tekanan ekonomi. Ini kebijakan yang mengagetkan, dikatakan bahwa kita mengalami krisis energi, padahal sumber energi di bumi pertiwi sangat melimpah. Indonesia masih memiliki cadangan minyak sebesar 3,99 miliar barel dan diperkirakan baru habis dieksploitasi selama 11 tahun. Disamping itu, kita masih memiliki potensi cadangan sejumlah 4,41 miliar barel. Cadangan gas mencapai 170 TSCF dan produksi per tahun mencapai 2,87 TSCF, dan diperkirakan akan bertahan hingga 59 tahun lagi. Cadangan batubara masih diperkirakan 18,7 miliar ton, dan diperkirakan masih bisa bertahan hingga 150 tahun (diolah dari berbagai sumber). Kepentingan dibalik pencabutan Subsidi Pemerintah berdalih, kenaikan harga minyak dunia akan memaksa lonjakan subsidi BBM, sehingga akan menyulitkan anggaran. Ini sangat aneh, setidaknya bagi saya, karena sekalipun subsidi BBM membengkak hingga Rp30 trilyun , itu berarti hanya bertambah menjadi Rp87,4 triliun, masih lebih rendah dibanding alokasi untuk membayar bunga utang luar negeri sebesar Rp115,6 triliun dan belanja pegawai sebesar Rp161.7 triliun. Lantas, kenapa pemerintah begitu berani mengutak-atik soal subsidi BBM saja, padahal ini berkaitan dengan rakyat banyak, sementara persoalan utang luar negeri tidak pernah tersentuh pembicaraan sama sekali. Utang luar negeri tidak hanya membuat APBN menjadi kering-kerontang, tetapi membawa dampak lebih luas seperti pendiktean kebijakan ekonomi dan politik kita oleh pihak asing. Demikian pula pendapat miring para ekonom neoliberal mengenai subsidi. Mereka begitu getol mengecam subsidi sebagai pemborosan, tidak produktif, dan dianggap kuno. Namun, ketika para pengusaha mengalami krisis, mereka pun ramai-ramai berteriak perlunya subsidi bagi sektor swasta dalam bentuk bailout. Pendek kata, mereka mengecam segala bentuk subsidi untuk orang miskin dan rakyat banyak, tapi menghalalkan subsidi bagi segelintir kaum kaya. Sepandai-pandainya tupai melompat, suatu saat akan jatuh juga, begitu kata pepatah lama. Sehebat apapun pemerintah membungkus "maksud busuk" dibalik rencana itu, tetapi masyarakat lambat laun akan mengerti juga. Di sini, ada beberapa agenda terselubung dibalik rencana penghapusan subsidi itu: Pertama, Rencana pengurangan subsidi merupakan "rangkaian" dari paket liberalisasi sektor migas di Indonesia. Ini hanya pelengkap liberalisasi sektor hilir, setelah sebelumnya sektor hulu sudah dikuasai asing. Sudah menjadi ketentuan tidak tertulis, bahwa prasyarat masuknya swasta dalam sektor hilir, adalah adanya harga yang kompetitif. Artinya, pemerintah harus bersedia melempar harga BBM sesuai mekanisme pasar. Untuk diketahui, saat ini, ada 105 perusahaan yang sudah mendapat izin untuk bermain di sektor hilir migas, termasuk membuka stasiun pengisian BBM untuk umum (SPBU), diantaranya British Petrolium (Inggris), Shell (Belanda), Petro-China (RRC), Petronas (Malaysia), dan Chevron-Texaco (Amerika. Kedua, saat Eropa dan AS sedang mengalami krisis dan membutuhkan suntikan dana, maka negara-negara dunia ketiga dipaksa menjalankan kebijakan "mengencangkan ikat pinggang", termasuk pemerintah Indonesia.

http://www.jihadwatch.org/2010/06/turks-irked-islamic-supremacist-turkish-pm-says-israels-behavior-should-definitely-definitely-be-pun.html Jihad Watch Turks irked: Islamic supremacist Turkish PM says "Israel's behavior should definitely, definitely be punished...Today is the beginning of a new age. Things will never be the same again." As Turkey embraces, and attempts to lead, the latest jihad against Israel, Turkey's Islamic supremacist Prime Minister fulminates about Israel's acts of defense against the Hamas-linked Jihad Flotilla. "Turkey's PM says Israel should be punished," by Pinar Aydinli and Tulay Karadeniz for Reuters, June 1: ANKARA (Reuters) - Turkish Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan called Tuesday for Israel to be punished for storming a Turkish aid ship and said "nothing would ever be the same" in relations between the two allies. Turkey was infuriated by the killing of nine people, including four Turks, during the Israeli assault Monday to stop a convoy of six vessels delivering aid to the Gaza Strip, and 368 Turks were still being held in Israel. "Israel's behavior should definitely, definitely be punished," a spirited Erdogan told a meeting of his parliamentary deputies broadcast on live television. "No one should try to test Turkey's patience," he said. "The time has come for the international community to say 'enough'," he said. "The United Nations must not stop at its resolution condemning Israel, but stand behind its resolution."... "Israel should lift the inhumane embargo on Gaza right away. Killing innocent people is a wicked recklessness," he said. Erdogan has become popular throughout the Islamic world for his trenchant criticism of Israeli policies toward the Palestinians. With an election due by July next year, Erdogan could bolster support for his Islamist-leaning AK Party "Today is the beginning of a new age. Things will never be the same again," he declared. "We will never turn our back on the Palestinians."... Posted by Robert on June 1, 2010 9:27 AM | 16 Comments Print this entry | Email this entry | Digg this | del.icio.us | Buzz up!

[ppiindia] Baju Untuk Ayu
Baju Untuk Ayu By: agussyafii Belum genap setahun hidup dilaluinya di Ibukota bersama putrinya. Hidupnya tak menentu dan berpindah-pindah. Air matanya sudah kering mengalir dia tumpahkan dalam pengaduan kepada Sang Khaliq setiap sholat di masjid Istiqlal. Poto wajah kecil Ayu putri kesayangannya selalu tersimpan di dompetnya sebagai tanda cinta. Bajunya teramat lusuh. Wajahnya terlihat kuyuh dengan sepatu yang berlobang diujungnya. Kulitnya hitam legam terbakar sinar matahari. Setiap hari menyusuri jalanan untuk mengais rizki. Terkadang memaksa dirinya untuk mengemis demi sesuap nasi. Suara bising, asap knalpot sudah menjadi menu sehari-hari. Kakinya perih penuh luka kebanyakan jalan kaki. Batuknya beberapa kali terdengar. Hari makin tambah panas, belum sesuap nasi mampir ke perutnya. Matanya melelehkan air mata membayangkan wajah cantik putrinya yang berlari-lari menyambut dirinya pulang sementaranya perutnya melilit menahan lapar. Sambil duduk dia keluarkan secarik kertas tulisan tangan putrinya. 'Ayah, kalo ayah udah dapet duit jangan lupa beliin Ayu baju ya..ayah.' Kertas itu kemudian dilipat dan dimasukkan ke kantong celana. Tangannya mengucap keringat dan air mata yang menyatu dipipinya. Direlung hatinya terasa perih bagai teriris sembilu. Wajah anaknya yang sedang tersenyum bagai pisau menusuk sampai ke hulu hatinya. Sejak istrinya meninggal dunia, hidup anaknya penuh penderitaan karena mempunya seorang ayah seperti dirinya. Keinginan untuk membahagiakan putrinya belum juga mampu diwujudkan. Pikirannya menjadi kalut tidak tahu bagaimana mendapatkan baju untuk putrinya. Matanya memandang kepada sebuah Supermarket diseberang jalan. Dia mendatangi Supermarket itu dengan wajah memelas mencoba berharap belas kasihan setiap pengunjung. Wajahnya yang kurus tak terawat tak membuat orang menaruh kasihan pada dirinya. bahkan orang yang melihat malah tidak menoleh sedikitpun. Tak seorangpun peduli padanya. Hatinya semakin perih dan menangis. Kakinya gemetar menahan lapar. Tubuhnya terasa rapuh. Wajah putrinya terlintas di dalam benaknya. Rengekan Ayu terngiang ditelinganya. 'Ayah, Ayu mau baju baru..' Tanpa disadarinya matanya melihat sebuah dompet tergeletak dimeja kasir. Matanya melirik ke kanan dan ke kiri mengawasi orang-orang disekeliling dengan penuh keyakinan dia ambil dompet itu. Sekuat tenaga dia berlari menuju pintu keluar. Seorang Ibu berteriak, 'Jambret...jambret...' Orang-orang disekeliling Supermarket terkejut dengan teriakan itu. Beberapa orang berlari mencoba untuk mengejarnya. Nampak satu dua orang menghadang. Perutnya yang seharian lapar membuatnya tak berkutik. Bogem mentah dilayangkan diwajahnya. Mata berkunang-kunang. darah mengucur dibibirnya. Orang-orang yang sudah terbakar amarah tidak mempedulikan teriakannya meminta ampun. Bahkan sebagian orang meludahi wajahnya. Wajahnya tersungkur menyentuh trotoar. Teriakan orang-orang tidak terdengar lagi. Terkapar tubuhnya dijalanan. Tidak tahu berapa lama dirinya pingsan. Kumandang adzan itu membangunkan dirinya seolah Sang Khaliq menyapa hati dan tubuhnya yang penuh luka. Berkali-kali dirinya beristighfar memohon ampun kepada Allah atas semua kekhilafan yang telah dilakukannya. Terucap kata lirih disaat wajah putrinya yang sedang tersenyum menyambutnya pulang. 'Ayu, maafkan ayah belum bisa membelikan baju baru buat Ayu.' Ayu sang buah hati memeluknya, mencium mesra pipi ayahnya. Pertanda Ayu mengerti apa yang sedang terjadi. Malam kelam dibawah kolong mereka berdua menikmati singkong bakar, begitu terasa nikmatnya. Mensyukuri hidup dengan penuh kasih sayang. Sekalipun hari itu Ayu belum memakai baju baru. Maka nikmat Tuhanmu yang manakah yang kamu dustakan? (QS. ar-Rahman 55:16) Wassalam, agussyafii --- Yuk, hadir di Kegiatan 'Amalia Cinta al-Quran (ACQ).'

[ppiindia] International Activists Cause Their Own Deaths By Attacking Non-confrontational Israeli Commandos?
International Activists Cause Their Own Deaths By Attacking Non-confrontational Israeli Commandos? By Belén Fernández May 31, 2010 "Palestine Think Tank" -- At a press briefing this morning following the massacre by Israel Defense Forces (IDF) commandos of passengers on board the Mavi Marmara, one of the boats pertaining to the Freedom Flotilla attempting to break the siege of Gaza, IDF spokeswoman Avital Liebovitch claimed that the passengers had engaged in “severe violence against our soldiers.” According to Liebovitch, the violence was premeditated and was administered via live fire, sharp items such as knives, and weapons “grabbed” from the IDF commandos. While underscoring Israel’s unique ability to portray its armed forces as victims, the analysis failed to provide a compelling reason for why—if the alleged attack using grabbed weapons was indeed premeditated—the IDF did not throw a wrench in the works by simply refraining from raiding the ship. Apparently not satisfied with sporadic violations of logic, Liebovitch reiterated that the IDF had not desired a confrontation with the activists but that the justness of the confrontation— which she herself admitted occurred “not in Israeli territory”—had since been proven given the passengers’ alleged reaction. The Israeli tendency to award retroactive justification to its actions was also evident during the 2008-2009 attack on Gaza, which Israel advertised as a defensive war against Palestinian rockets by severing the portion of the cause-and-effect timeline that involved deliberate Israeli violations of the ceasefire agreement with Hamas. The inversion of aggressor and victim did not of course prevent Gazan civilians from perishing in this particular confrontation at a rate of approximately 400:1 vis-à-vis their Israeli counterparts. As for the inversion of aggressor and victim aboard the Mavi Marmara, a communiqué on the website of the Israeli Foreign Ministry this morning confirmed that pre-planned “life-threatening and violent activity” against the IDF commandos could have been averted had the humanitarian vessels heeded the invitation of the Israeli Navy to dock at Ashdod, “where they would be able to unload their aid material which would then be transferred over land [to Gaza] after undergoing security inspections.” Such charitable offers regarding the fate of 10,000 tons of international aid have yet to be reconciled with the continuing Israel denial that there is a humanitarian crisis in Gaza, or with the fact that pencils and laundry detergent have not in recent Gazan history been eligible for overland transfer. The naval invitation to Ashdod has meanwhile been called into question by Liebovitch’s declaration this morning that the purpose of the confrontation on the Mavi Marmara was simply to prevent the pa
[ppiindia] Freedom Flotilla and the BBC's Shame
Posted by: "a b" kalamd...@yahoo.com kalamdari Mon May 31, 2010 10:09 pm(PDT) Freedom Flotilla and the BBC's Shame by Muhammad Idrees Ahmad The BBC proves its despicable subservience to the Israeli propaganda machine once again. Before it was shamed by Al Jazeera and others into covering the Freedom Flotilla massacre, it reported the story as a mere claim by Hamas. Here is how it first appeared on the BBC's website: BBC News – Israel intercepts Gaza flotilla, says Hamas The Palestinian movement Hamas says the Israeli navy has intercepted a flotilla of ships carrying humanitarian aid to the Gaza strip. The massacre soon became the top news story on Google News and Twitter. The BBC could no longer maintain the pretence of ignorance. It finally reported on the massacre as a matter of fact, but appended this line: "Hamas, a militant palestinian group that controls the Gaza strip, has fired thousands of rockets into Israel over the past decade." The victims weren't innocent, you see. They were on their way to aid these terrible people who fire `thousands of rockets into Israel'. That's all you need to know. And if you mention those hundreds of thousands of bombs, missiles and rockets that Israel has shot into Gaza…Why, you must be an anti-Semite! I took the risk, and sent in a complaint. I am assuming I wasn't the only one questioning the relevance of the line to the report because it was swiftly removed. In its place, it posted a short video segment in which the reporter went out of his way to `stress' that according to the Israeli military no one was killed. He then went on to excuse the killings because `clearly when you have as many as 600 people on board these ships, at night, in high sees, it is a very very difficult situation…and you can imagine a rather chaotic situation. Of course the Israeli military is very well experienced with dealing with crowd control'. But turns out he wasn't entirely shameless. He did add: 'but certainly if you've got live fire being fired as well as tear gas canisters which is what is being reported was fired, then that is a very dangerous situation in a very crowded space'. The BBC has now added a sidebar in which `diplomatic correspondent' Jonathan Marcus tells readers how terrible this massacre is…for Israel's image! The clueless ass tells us that `this was always going to be a high-risk operation'… for Israel! He addes: `Taking over vessels at sea is no easy task, even if the units carrying out the mission are well-trained, and it is especially difficult if the people already on board the vessels resist.' But at least he thinks the deaths are a tragedy…but for Israel! Because they `threaten to make what was always going to be a potential public relations disaster for Israel into a fully-fledged calamity.' So the BBC pays a `diplomatic correspondent' your tax money so he can worry about the myriad ways Israel hurts itself by killing innocent civilians in international waters! Thanks to all who've written in. Don't let them get away with using your tax money to feed you propaganda on behalf of a foreign criminal entity. For more on the BBC's disgraceful record of whitewashing Israeli crimes here and here. This is your money being used in the service of murderers and child molesters. You have a responsibility to act. At minimum, you can complain. http://pulsemedia. org/2010/ 05/31/freedom- flotilla- and-the-bbcs- shame/ [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

[ppiindia] Gaza flotilla attack: SA journalist found
http://www.capetimes.co.za/?fSectionId=&fArticleId=nw20100601101611304C483370 Gaza flotilla attack: SA journalist found 1 June 2010, 10:18 South African journalist Gadijah Davids, who was caught up in a clash between the Israeli Defence Force and an aid ship bound for Gaza, is alive, her relieved mother Magboeba said on Tuesday. "The mere fact that she is alive is quite consoling for us," Davids said. The department of international relations told the family that she had been found, and they were currently working on finding out more about the conditions that she was being held under. Davids said she had known the possibilities when she left. She had been covering Palestinian issues for some time for community radio station Radio 786 in Cape Town, and already had an idea of what she might face. She had wanted to be part of a team delivering medical supplies, and was not interested in anything military. "She will come back a stronger person. It was a maiden experience for her on so many levels -- it was the first time she left home, first big story, and now she has an international scoop -- we are very proud of her." Daniel Seaman, spokesman for the Israeli government, told Sapa that the people on five of the six ships would be sent home by plane as soon as they had identified themselves. They were currently being held in prisons around the country. They would be sent home because they had not engaged in violent confrontation with the soldiers who boarded the vessels to search them. The people on board the sixth -- the Mavi Marmara -- where nine people were killed when the soldiers rappelled on to the ship from helicopters --would be released only if authorities could establish that they were not part of the direct physical confrontations that also left a number of soldiers wounded. The Israeli government said two of its soldiers' guns were taken away and they were attacked with sticks and knives. Seaman could not say how they would establish who was directly involved and they were in the process of identifying those who were on board, as well as those killed. Those found not directly involved would be flown home, and the others would face charges, still to be formulated, in Israel. The flotilla attempted to sail through an Israeli blockade to Gaza. The Israeli government, in response to mortar attacks two years ago, imposed the blockade of supplies to the contested territory and insisted on searching consignments bound for the area. The blockade included maritime traffic. Restricted items included cement, which they said could be used to mould mortar shells. Israel had rejected international calls that the restrictions were too harsh and were causing a humanitarian crisis. - Sapa Related Articles a.. [VIDEO] Family 'very proud' of missing journo b..

Triono Wahyu Sudibyo - detikNews
Semarang
- Umat Kristiani di Semarang, Jawa Tengah, berdoa mengutuk keras
penyerangan kapal relawan oleh Israel. Demi menunjukkan keseriusan,
seorang jemaat mengaku siap berangkat ke Jalur Gaza.
Doa
digelar di Gereja Hati Kudus, Jl. Krokosono, Tanah Mas, Semarang,
Selasa (1/6/2010). Puluhan umat itu tergabung dalam Komisi Hubungan
Antaragama dan Kepercayaan Keuskupan Agung Semarang.
Pemimpin
jemaat Romo Aloysius Budi Purnomo, mengatakan, serangan Israel terhadap
kapal relawan merupakan tindakan tak beradab dan berlawanan dengan
prinsip kemanusian, keadilan, dan perdamaian.
"Kami berharap dunia internasional bergerak," katanya usai doa bersama.
"Agar
tak menimbulkan ekses lebih jauh, tindakan itu seyogyanya tak dibalas
dengan kekerasan. Kekerasan jika dilawan dengan kekerasan, hanya jadi
lingkaran kekerasan," imbuhnya.
Ketika sebagian besar jemaat
sudah membubarkan diri, seorang jemaat mengacungkan tangan. "Saya siap
berangkat ke Jalur Gaza," katanya.

[ppiindia] Massacre on high seas
http://www.kuwaittimes.net/read_news.php?newsid=OTA0NTM0MTg1 Headline News Massacre on high seas Published Date: June 01, 2010 JERUSALEM: Israeli marines stormed a Turkish aid ship bound for Gaza yesterday and at least nine pro-Palestinian activists were killed, triggering a diplomatic crisis and an emergency session of the UN Security Council. European nations, as well as the United Nations and Turkey, voiced shock and outrage at the bloody end to the international campaigners' bid to break Israel's blockade of the Gaza Strip. Boarding from dinghies and rappelling from helicopters, naval commandos stopped six ships, 700 people and 10,000 tonnes of supplies from reaching the Islamist-run Palestinian enclave - but bloody miscalculation left Israel isolated and condemned. Once-close Muslim ally Turkey accused it of "terrorism" in international waters. The UN Security Council met in emergency session. The European Union, a key aid donor to Palestinians, demanded an independent inquiry and an end to the Gaza embargo. Israel's most powerful friend, the United States, was more cautious. But President Barack Obama said he wanted the full facts soon and regretted the loss of life. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu voiced regret as he cut short a visit to Canada and rang Obama to call off a White House meeting that had been planned for today. He said his forces had been attacked: "They were mobbed, they were clubbed, they were beaten, stabbed, there was even a report of gunfire. And our soldiers had to defend themselves." F or all his regret, he vowed to maintain a three-year-old embargo to stop Iranian-backed Hamas from bringing arms to Gaza. Back home, questions were asked about how an operation that aimed to avoid bloodshed had gone so badly and publicly wrong. The White House meeting had seemed intended to soothe ties with Obama, which have been strained by differences over Jewish settlement construction that delayed the recent revival of peace talks with the Palestinians. But Obama must also balance support for Israel, which is popular with American voters, with understanding for an angry Turkey and other Muslim US allies. Palestinian Presi dent Mahmoud Abbas said: "What Israel has committed on board the Freedom Flotilla was a massacre. Even after the vessels were escorted into Israel's Ashdod port, accounts of the predawn operation some 120 km out in the Mediterranean were sketchy and limited to those from the Israeli side. Activists were held incommunicado, though Israeli officials said most would be free to go in due course. Military night-vision video showed commandos being winched down, only to be surrounded. Some Israeli commentators asked why commanders put troops into a position where they were cornered. An Israeli minister admitted plans to maintain the blockade on Hamas while avoiding an international incident had backfired in spectacular fashion. "It's going to be a big scandal, no doubt about it," Trade Minister Binyamin Ben-Eliezer said. One marine told reporters his squad went in with anti-riot paintball guns but, fearing for their lives, resorted to using normal pistols or leapt overboard. In military footage, a commando fired a paintball at a man who seemed to be clubbing an Israeli. Other video sh owed a commando fire a pistol, two-handed. "We were prepared to face human rights activists and we found people who came for war," the marine told reporters. A reporter with the pan-Arab satellite channel Al-Jazeera, who was sailing on the Turkish ship leading the flotilla, said the Israelis fired at the vessel before boarding it, wounding the captain. "These savages are killing people here, please help," a Turkish television reporter said. The broadcast ended with a voice shouting in Hebrew, "Everybody shut up!" At Barzilai hospital in the southern Israeli city of Ashkelon, a few activists trickled in under military escort. "They hit me," said a Greek man, who se right arm was in a sling, calling the Israelis "pirates". He did not give his name and later was escorted away with a neck brace. Israeli military officials said nine activists died on the Mavi Marmara, a Turkish cruise ship carrying nearly 600 people. Most of the dead were Turks, one senior Israeli officer said. Military officials said some activists had snatched pistols from the boarding party, which responded to gunfire. Seven troops and 20 protesters were injured, the military said. Some officials had earlier put the death toll at 10 or even higher. The bloodshed sparked street protests and government ire in Turkey, long Israel's lone Muslim ally in the region. Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan, whose Islamist views and outreach to Iran and other Israeli enemies are blamed by many in Israel for souring relations, said before cutting short a trip to Chile: "This action, totally contrary to the principles of international law, is inhumane state terrorism.

[ppiindia] What Can Brazil Do Without Lula?
Refleksi : Pertanyaan yang mirip ialah : Apa yang NKRI bisa berbuat tanpa SBY? hehehehe. Bagaimana komentar Anda? http://english.pravda.ru/print/world/americas/113594-lula_brazil-0 01.06.2010 What Can Brazil Do Without Lula? 2010 is the year of change for Brazil. In October, the country is to elect a new President. The current President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva can no longer be a candidate since the Brazilian Constitution only allows the same President serve two terms. The main presidential candidates are former governor of São Paulo, José Serra, and Dilma Rousseff, handpicked by President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. Lula will be leaving his successor a rich legacy. Today, due to high level of economic development in all spheres and large number of employable population, Brazil is significantly ahead of the rest of Latin America. In terms of GDP, it is the eighth economy in the world. Lula's Presidency that lasted two terms, since 2003, made the country to be what it is now. Russia Today: Brazil's Middle Eastern adventure Lula came to office when the country was falling into abyss. His predecessor Fernando Cardoso could not fight the inflation and borrowed so much money from the IMF that the country was preparing for a default. Many economists argued about when exactly it was going to happen, thinking the new "left President" would only make things worse. Yet, instead the country not only got out of the hole but achieved great success both in economy and foreign policy. Lula managed to properly direct the energy of radical Trotskyists and the experience of market economists in his government. As a result, he has built a thriving economy and more or less stable social sector, which none of other countries of the region have. Brazilian economy deserves special attention. Raw materials and agricultural products are not the only things it supplies to the world markets. The main export is aviation equipment, transportation, electric equipment, fabrics and shoes. The revenue from the export of these items is significantly larger than the revenue from iron ore, energy, rare metals and agricultural products, including famous Brazilian coffee, soy, sugar and fruit. During Lula's presidency the manufacturing sector got a strong impetus for development. The sector was heavily invested into. The "left" President realized that without stimulus to manufacturing and production of competitive goods the country will remain a giant "banana republic." Lula managed to keep inflation at bay, something many countries are unable to do. He even paid the IMF debt ahead of time in 2005. Today Brazil is no longer a borrower but a lender who provides help to the third world countries on easier terms of payment (compared to the West). Lula has proved that Goldman Sachs was right when it included the country into virtual BRIC group (Brazil, Russia, India, and China) that is expected to experience rapid economic growth by 2050. The success with the internal policy has an effect on the foreign policy. Brazil has become a regional arbitrator in its own way, and it is taken into account by everyone from the outrageous Venezuelan Hugo to the pro-American Columbian Uribe. Interestingly enough, Brazil became a protector of Honduran president Zelaya overthrown in 2009 (he was hiding on the territory of the Brazilian embassy). It is worth mentioning that Brazil currently has the strongest armed forces in Latin America. The US attitude towards Brazil is controversial. On the one hand, the US is ineffectively trying to direct Brazil towards the American policy. It even made some "amicable gestures" like a recent purchase of 200 Brazilian battle planes Super Tucano. On the other hand, it is secretly sabotaging Brazil by trying not to allow the enhancement of its position in other countries of the region. Americans are definitely concerned with Brazil's actions that contradict the US's opinion increasingly more. The West frequently calls Lula's policy immoral, while it proved to be extremely good for Brazil. Lula is friends with Hugo Chavez who sells him cheap oil, and George W. Bush Jr., who has the market important for Brazilian export. At the same time, he allowed neither of them to interfere with his affairs. Now he has befriended China that became his main partner and shifted the US to the second place. When the US suggested introducing sanctions against Iran for the refusal to stop the nuclear program, Lula asked to give him time to convince Ahmadinejad to agree with the demands of the world community. Washington considered it to be an attempt to "talk against time." "Lula's policy is first of all aimed at strengthening of Brazil, making it one of super powers of the 21 century. Here the interests of Brazil and the West clash," Boris Martynov, Deputy Head of the Institute of Latin America in Moscow told Pravda.ru. "Many are used to Latin America
[ppiindia] 'Israeli commandos are wild dogs'
http://www.jpost.com/IranianThreat/News/Article.aspx?id=177128 Photo by: AP 'Israeli commandos are wild dogs' By ASSOCIATED PRESS 06/01/2010 12:55 Ahmadinejad calls for strong UNSC resolution over flotilla raid. The Iranian president on Tuesday demanded a strong UN Security Council resolution against Israel over its raid on an aid flotilla bound for the Gaza Strip. In a speech broadcast live on state TV, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad called on the Security Council to adopt a resolution that would "cut off" Israel's hands, thus preventing it from committing more "crimes." At least nine people were killed when Israeli navy commandos raided the Gaza-bound flotilla Monday. The UN Security Council called Tuesday for an "impartial" investigation of Israel's raid after an emergency meeting and marathon negotiations that lasted nearly 12 hours. It was weaker than what was initially demanded by the Palestinians, Arabs and Turkey. "I ask the Security Council to keep the crimes of the Zionists on its agenda and to cut off their hands from committing crimes with a strong resolution," Ahmadinejad said during a provincial visit to town of Ilam, some 430 miles (700 kilometers) southwest of Teheran. He said such a resolution by the Council would secure international confidence in the body and send a message that it doesn't issue "resolutions only against countries the US and its allies want." Ahmadinejad was referring to the push by the US, four other permanent Security Council members - Russia, China, Britain and France - and Germany for a new set of UN sanctions against Iran over its refusal to stop enriching uranium. The West suspect the program masks efforts to make nuclear weapons, a charge Iran denies and claims it's for peaceful power generation. Ahmadinejad, who is known for his anti-Israel rhetoric, called Israeli commandos who rappelled onto the Gaza-bound flotilla "wild dogs" and criticizes Washington for its "weak and tendentious" stance in support of Israel. He warned Israel against further raids on Gaza, saying that a "storm of anger from the nations of the region will uproot you."

[ppiindia] Tenggelamnya Kapal Century
Refleksi : Kapal Century tengelam sebelum berlayar! Siapa akan berani dan berhasil mengangkatnya dari dasar laut? http://cetak.kompas.com/read/xml/2010/05/31/02354453/tenggelamnya.kapal.century Tenggelamnya Kapal Century Oleh Donal Fariz Senin, 31 Mei 2010 | 02:35 WIB Sekretariat Bersama Partai Koalisi bentukan Presiden Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono tidak hanya berhasil membenamkan kasus Bank Century. Lebih dari itu, dalam konteks yang lebih luas keberadaannya amat berpotensi menyandera penegakan hukum jangka panjang. Melalui Sekretariat Bersama, Aburizal Bakrie diplot oleh SBY sebagai pemecah ombak (breakwater) gelombang politik yang semakin membesar belakangan ini. Arus deras kelompok oposisi telah mengancam kursi kekuasaan SBY. Untuk meredam hal ini, terjadilah tawar-menawar kekuasaan (political bargaining). Alhasil, dengan sangat cepat Golkar berpindah ke lain hati jadi partai koalisi pemerintah. Walau dianggap melanggar fatsun politik, ini realitas. Publik pun jamak mengetahui bahwa dalam politik tak ada musuh yang abadi dan kawan yang sejati. Karena hanya kepentinganlah yang abadi. Kini, dengan jubah Golkar, Aburizal jadi satu gerbong kereta dengan pemerintah. Jabatan sebagai ketua harian forum koalisi memberikan porsi kekuasaan besar. Bahkan, sebagian kalangan menilai teramat besar. Sebagai ketua, ia berwenang memanggil menteri untuk hadir pada rapat tertentu. Ini jelas telah menyusupi kekuasaan pemerintah. Di sisi lain, sebagai ketua forum koalisi, Aburizal tentu berperan untuk merapikan barisan koalisi di parlemen. Di belakang layar, Aburizal bertugas sebagai invisible hand (tangan-tangan tak tampak) untuk "menyeiramakan" suara parlemen yang belakangan bernada sumbang terhadap pemerintah. Perkawinan kepentingan ini jelas telah menimbulkan politik kartel di negara ini. Secara teori, Meitzer berpendapat, politik kartel muncul dari sebuah koalisi besar di antara elite politik. Sistem ini digunakan untuk meminimalkan kerugian pihak yang kalah, entah dalam pemilu atau dalam koalisi. Kartel lebih mengutamakan mekanisme perangkulan (incorporation) dari elite yang memiliki latar belakang ideologi yang berbeda. Dalam politik kartel, dorongan berpartisipasi dalam kabinet dan struktur kepemimpinan di komisi, misalnya, adalah karena kepentingan partai-partai untuk mengamankan kebutuhan finansial bersama. Apa yang terjadi saat ini mencerminkan sebuah kepentingan pragmatis yang jauh dari unsur ideologis. Partai oposisi versus partai pemerintah yang sebelumnya begitu sengit berkompetisi di satu hal akan dengan mudah menjadi kooperatif dalam hal lain. Intinya, mereka terlibat di pemerintah atau parlemen bukan demi perjuangan program atau ideologi partai, melainkan patut diduga demi mengamankan sumber-sumber rente. Semakin meyakinkan kita jika melihat latar belakang para politikus Senayan. Dalam catatan Indonesia Corruption Watch (ICW), setidaknya 44 persen anggota DPR periode 2009-2014 merupakan pengusaha. Dominasi pengusaha di ranah politik semakin menguatkan akan ancaman persekongkolan antara penguasa dan pengusaha. Dibentuknya Sekretariat Bersama (Sekber) tidak bisa dilepaskan dari pertautan di atas. Bagaimanapun publik tahu Sekber lahir dari benih megaskandal Century. Tak berlebihan rasanya jika Sekber memang sangat berpotensi menyandera penegakan hukum di negeri ini karena lembaga ini akan menjadi benteng kuat dalam menahan serangan hukum terhadap para politisi hitam. Kapal Century Jika kepentingan politik sudah menggumpal antarpihak "bermasalah", semua cara tentu bisa dihalalkan. Lihat saja pernyataan Ketua DPP Partai Golkar Priyo Budi Santoso yang siap memetieskan proses politik kasus Century (7/5). Jelas sangat kontraproduktif dengan semangat berapi-api partai beringin ini pada masa angket Century. Memori publik masih sangat kuat merekam saat paripurna hak angket Century, dengan lantang 104 kader Golkar memilih opsi C. Pilihan dengan kesimpulan ada penyalahgunaan wewenang dan pelanggaran hukum dalam proses bail out Bank Century. Lompat pagar Golkar ke dalam partai koalisi sudah barang tentu diikuti peralihan sikap politik bahwa tidak ada yang bermasalah dengan Bank Century. Manuver ini jelas membahayakan penuntasan kasus Bank Century secara keseluruhan. Kasus ini mustahil sampai pada Peradilan Konstitusi karena peta dan kalkulasi politik di parlemen sudah berubah secara drastis. Kondisi sekarang menunjukkan setidaknya 58 persen suara parlemen sudah berada pada opsi A. Jumlah ini jelas tidak memenuhi syarat untuk sampai pada hak menyatakan pendapat dan pemeriksaan di Mahkamah Konstitusi. Apa yang dilakukan Lily Wahid untuk menguji pasal-pasal hak menyatakan pendapat dalam UU Nomor 27 Tahun 2009 agaknya tak memiliki daya guna untuk kasus Century saat ini. Bagitu pula halnya penuntasan kasus Bank Century di KPK. Tidak bisa dimungkiri proses penegakan hukum butuh dukungan politis. Jika melihat kondisi KPK saat ini, lembaga ini jelas sangat m
