GBK Jadi Lautan Merah
Bersatu Dukung Indonesia

In...do...ne...sia yel-yel itu nyaris tak pernah putus sepanjang pertandingan pembuka Piala Asia 2007 Grup D di Gelora Bung Karno (GBK) antara Timnas Indonesia vs Bahrain, Selasa (10/07), ketika pertandingan belum di mulai suasana riuh sudah menggema di seantero Stadion GBK, yel-yel untuk memberikan semangat moril kepada pasukan Timnas yang akan bertanding membuat buluk kuduk merinding, susana bertambah meriah ketika pasukan Timnas memasuki lapangan Pertandingan dan begitu lagu Indonesia Raya berkumandang semua suporter berdiri ikut menyanyikan lagu kebangsaan itu dengan penuh semangat, suara lantang dan tentunya kebanggan di dada.

Stadion GBK sore itu memang lain dari biasanya setiap sudut mata memandang dominasi warna merah dan putih memenuhi se isi GBK, meski masih ada beberapa orang yang menggunakan atribut klub namun GBK kali ini menjadi lautan merah, atraksi-atraksi meriah tak pernah berhenti menghiasi GBK, dan spanduk-spanduk bertuliskan kata-kata heroik terpampang melingkari GBK.

Penampilan Timnas yang grogi di awal-awal babak pertama tak membuat Suporter berhenti bernyanyi, bersorak dan berjingkrak, dan GBK benar-benar seperti ambruk oleh ledakan bom ketika Budi Sudharsono mencetak Gol, berbagai luapan kegembiraan ditampilkan oleh suporter merah putih, meski Bahrain sempat menyamakan kedudukan namun mereka tak pernah putus memberikan suport, optimisme yang membumbung tinggi seolah tak peduli dengan Gol Bahrain.

Dan harapan itu terwujud ketika Bambang Pamungkas memastikan kemenangan Indonesia, GBK kembali meledak, diakhir-akhir pertandingan mereka sempat di buat tegang, terlebih Bahrain terus mengurung permainan Indonesia, namun do`a dan harapan mereka benar-benar menjadi kenyataan ketika wasit meniup peluit sebagai tanda pertandingan berakhir. Suasana suka cita kembali menghiasai wajah-wajah mereka, ada yang saling bersalaman, ada yang berangkulan dan yang pasti mereka kembali berjingrak ria meyambut kemenangan Indonesia, tak peduli suara serak, tak peduli haus, tak peduli lapar dan tak peduli lelah hanya ada satu rasa "Bangga".

Sepanjang perjalanan pulang ketika berpapasan dengan suporter lain kata Hidup Indonesia, Indonesia Menang, mejadi salam dadakan, mereka benar-benar bangga pada Timnas setidaknya untuk partai sore itu, namun perjalanan masih panjang, masih banyak lawan yang akan di hadapi, kita masih dibutuhkan untuk mendukung Timnas, so jangan cepat puas teruskan kreasimu, teruskan perjuanganmu mendukung Timnas dengan sportif karena hanya itu yang bisa kita berikan.

Bravo Suporter Indonesia.

Antara Mendukung Persija dan Wisata

"INI KANDANG KITA"

Federasi Sepakbola Asia (AFC), akhirnya memilih lagu "I Believe" yang dipopulerkan oleh Tata Young sebagai lagu resmi kejuaraan Piala Asia 2007 mendatang. Keputusan AFC memilih lagu "I Believe" bukan tanpa alasan. Pasalnya, lagu itu sudah terkenal oleh khalayak pencinta lagu. Terbukti, album yang keluar pada 2004 itu sudah terjual sebanyak jutaan kopi di berbagai penjuru Asia.

Selain itu, Tata merupakan salah satu bintang musik di Thailand dan Asia. Terbukti dalam usia 26 tahun, penyanyi yang lahir dengan nama lengkap Amita Marie Young itu sudah menjadi salah satu diva di Thailand. Penyanyi yang juga soerang model dan aktris itu, akan tampil pada pembukaan Piala Asia antara Thailand melawan Irak di Stadion Rajamangala, Bangkok, pada 7 Juli mendatang.

Antara Mendukung Persija dan Wisata

Yogyakarta merupakan kota wisata yang sangat indah dan familiar dengan The Jakmania, hingga tidak heran Yogya menjadi tujuan utama para anggota dan simpatisan Persija dalam tour tandangnya. Dimulai dari tanggal 20 – 22 April 2007, The Jakmania melakukan tour tandang kembali ke Sleman, Yogyakarta.

Saat pendaftaran tour dibuka, KORWIL-KORWIL langsung berebut untuk daftar dan membawa anggota sebanyak-banyaknya. Rekor pendaftaran terbanyak langsung dipegang oleh KORWIL Garis Keras dengan membawa 135 orang anggotanya, diikuti oleh Kemayoran (86), dan Rawamangun (63). Namun ternyata pendaftaran harus sudah ditutup sebelum waktunya, ini dikarenakan kuota yang telah ditetapkan pengurus pusat yaitu 1500 orang sudah melebihi kapasitas untuk di gerbong kereta. Akhirnya pendaftaran ditutup dengan jumlah peserta tour sebanyak 1953 orang oren. Rombongan tour melakukan pemberangkatan melalui 2 titik keberangkatan dari stasiun Senen dengan rangkaian 6 gerbong dan St. Tanah Abang dengan 4 gerbong. Dengan total 10 gerbong di stasiun terpisah, pengurus harus kerja ekstra keras untuk dapat mengangkut hampir ± 2000 orang ini, jadi mao tidak mao 1 gerbong yang berkapasitas 106 sheet, harus diisi dengan 180 – 200 orang.

Walaupun pada akhirnya Persija harus mengakui keunggulan tuan rumah dengan skor akhir 2-1 untuk PSS Sleman., tapi itu tidak menghilangkan semangat The Jakers untuk tetap meng-oren-kan jalan Malioboro, penginapan di sepanjang jalan yang merupakan tujuan bagi siapa saja turis-turis yang hadir ke Yogyakarta ini juga penuh diisi dengan oran oren. The Jak hadir di Yogya disambut oleh teman-teman dari Slemania dan Brajamusti serta warga Yogya umumnya.

Sedikit komentar dari orang yang sempet gue temuin mengenai kedatangan The Jak ‘simbok’ dari pasar di daerah Sleman, “wah, suporter Jakarta dateng jadi rame.. dagangan juga jadi cepet abis..” dan ditambah lagi dari temen-temen Brajamusti yang wilayahnya dijadikan tempat wisata bagi The Jakers, “saya bingunge mas.. ngeliat nde jak koq dimana-mana ada, masuk gang ini oren, keluar gang ini oren lagi.. wah, Jogya jadi full oren iki..”. dan kehadiran The Jak ini merupakan income buat para pedagang, pemilik losmen/hotel, warung makan, sampai pada urusan birahi (;-P).

Itulah The Jakmania dimanapun berada menjadi daya tarik tersendiri dan tidak ada kekhawatiran dari warga sekitar akan terjadi penjarahan atau tindak kekerasan, ini dikarenakan pengurus sudah mewanti-wanti agar setiap peserta tour bisa menjaga nama baik The Jakmania. Sepulang nya dari Jogya banyak dari anggota yang membawa buah tangan untuk keluarga, saudara, kerabat atau teman sekerja seperti gue ini, "yang pasti kalo mao ikut tour mesti perlu modal biar ngga menyusahkan siapa aja".

Dimana Kau (PERSIJA) Berada.. Kami selalu ada..

Karena kami banyak BIAYA…

World War I (1914 – 1918), the Great DepressionThe Rise of Fascism and Communist AffectInternal political development in Japan and China
The World War I (1914-1918) had affected Some of Europe countries and its allies who made them were in great depression. Those countries who were being involved, they more concerned to get and defend their power on the World War I. As their consequence joined on the World War I, the Europe countries did not really think about their own domestic problems, such as their economic problem. From this weakness, it caused the economic problem of Europe countries were going down. They did not export their goods to other states or even import their goods from other states. Then from this condition, it was used by countries in other region to get some advantages from the impact of World War I. One of the states was Japan. Japan took some advantages from the World War I to increase their economic power because Japan saw that the Europe countries were weak in Economic sector, although at that time Japan was on the side of Britain and its allies. Then Japan became one of exporting countries for Europe countries who involved and joined on the World War I. This condition really influences the internal political development in Japan. Japan realized that the Europe countries and its allies were very depending toward Japan, and then they started to export their commodities and other goods and sell those things into Europe countries.Meaning to say that the war in Europe brought economic boom times toward Japan, the Japanese industry sold munitions and other goods to the western countries fighting the war and advanced into Asian markets left open by the decline of western trading activity. Nearly every sector of the Japanese economy expanded, but heavy industry grew especially fast, creating a new and increasingly industrial labor force. From that export, Japan had received big advantages from World War I and it made the economic of Japan developed. The progressive in Japan’s economic could not be separated from the effort of their citizen that makes their economic internal had developed and increased highly. Then Japanese people felt that they were enough stronger than Europe countries in economic aspect, and they recognized that other countries in Europe were weak. Because some Europe countries and its allies who joined and involved on the World War I were depend on Japan. Therefore, because of this feeling of Japanese people, the fascism already rose up toward Japanese people. But beside of the fascism had been rising into Japanese people, the communism already rose up as well, because there was happened with social unrest, the rapid inflation sparked wage disputes between the management and workers.In Japan, the people became fascist and communist mostly depend on the balancing of two classes social power, the bourgeois as management and the farmers as workers. Fascism in Japan was emerged because of the combination between the weakness of the farmer and the strength ness of the bourgeois which erased the potency of the farmer revolutionary. Then, communism resulted from the opposites of that combination, the farmers were stronger than the bourgeois one, and this condition was causing the revolution in side of the farmer and then the bourgeois became weak.What had happened in political internal development in Japan, was different from China. If in the case of Japan, the erasing of farmer revolution is the main of the stressing factor which emerged the communism in Japan. But if in China, the farmer revolution could distinguish the radical changing process . The meaning is, the changes in Japan was not signed by the encouragement of revolutionary from the under class but from the upper one that was by the bourgeois class in which the feudalism verse of Japan were possible to eliminate the structure of ascendancy. Therefore the bourgeois class was the encouragement of the social changes which was needed for the industries development. If China moved into the totalitarian modernism, but Japan was more stressed on fascism like in Germany.

The Struggle to get Better Life for Indonesian labours
Indonesia is facing some big problems toward its citizen now. As one of developing countries in South East Asia region, Indonesia has to face this reality to solve this problem for its citizen. But does this country solve and fix those big problems, and what does happen with Indonesia itself?Well, since the rising of ‘Globalization’ was felt into Indonesia, it really gives some changing situation for Indonesia. Some people who uneducated perhaps would feel amaze, when they listened the word ‘Globalization’ for the first time, but for some people who have been studying or have understood with the word ‘globalization’ would feel worry about that to face or when it would come to Indonesia. As the reasons, for the people who have understood with the word ‘Globalization’, they think that Indonesia as one of developing countries which its citizen mostly are poor people approximately rise up more than 78.44%, are not ready yet to face the globalization itself.Now, the globalization has become the significant thing for the technology in Indonesia. The advancing and progressing of technology is really influenced by the globalization which mostly comes from the western countries such as USA, Germany and France, and also from East Asia countries like Japan and China. This is the major role of globalization for its positive impact, which almost happens in developing countries like Indonesia.Why some people particularly for educated people really worry about the rising of globalization in Indonesia itself? In their thought, Globalization is a new way for developing countries to be occupied by the western people, at the past they occupied us in military action but now they occupy us in different way by trading and also occupation in technology.Behind the scene, that globalization gives so big advantages in technology that can develop for all the people in Indonesia, but the globalization can threat the living of people Indonesia as well especially for the poor people which becomes the labor of the factory in Indonesia. The role of globalization becomes their new enemy in their life, because there are certain people who take big-big advantages from the labor to fulfill the interest of the people that becomes friend of globalization.Well, this is a topic that I’m going to deliver in my essay about the life of Indonesia labor that has been affected by globalization, which titled ‘their struggle to get better life’ and of course I had an experience as well in seeing directly the condition of employment in Indonesia, and I’m as one of Indonesia teenager will try to help their life, but I can’t walk alone to face this big problem.I study about International Relations in my college and now I’m in fourth semester. International Relation is very unique major to be learned, there are so many interesting lecturing in my college. When I was passing my study in third semester, I got one subject that was ‘Globalization studies’. Then during of our lecturing, my lecturer gave us extra time study to watch a documentary movie, is about the Indonesian Labors or Indonesian employment which has become victims of the globalization. Indonesia has big population, now its population is about 27 billion people. The movie told us about how big globalization takes control their life. The employment in Indonesia can be said as the one of the pity employment in this world, they never get their right as a human being especially for them who work in private sectors. People in Indonesia now are difficult to find a job, with the big population the opportunities to get a job is more difficult for them. The competition always happens among us. With the rising of globalization in Indonesia, now the factories from other country try to enter their company in Indonesia, this system what we call as multinational cooperation (MNC). Now, they have already entered in Indonesia and they build up their company in Indonesia most of the company are in Garment sector, this is the company which produces the clothes. The Garment now is very popular in Indonesia, almost in every big city in Indonesia always have Garment factory, and mostly the workers in garment factory are the females. Those kinds of garment products are always exported to other country, when there is big order from their customers, the workers must work extra time. They usually work from 8.00 am till 5.00 pm, but if there is big order they must work from 7.30 am till 11.00 pm. But what makes us so feel pity toward them, about their salary. They just get 350.000 Rupiahs/month, if we change the currency into dollar it just raises 37 U$. It is not higher than one product that has already produced by their hands. One product when it is imported can raise more than 100 U$, so how big the profit of the company, If one worker inside the factory can produce 50 piece/person in a day. How much money will company get? When the workers in Indonesia know about this matter and want to get their right in order to get their enough salary is not easy for them, because they have to struggle to get their maximize salary. They always ask for their money but their company will not give salary like what they want. If the company is very hard, sometime its workers will be fired out from their company.This case is not different with my experience. I become a guide when my holiday comes. I work for some people to translate from English to Indonesia, at that time two foreigners came from Australia and they need my help. Then we went somewhere to visit Furniture Factory in Klaten (a city in central Java). The foreigners are buyers of that factory. They import some antique things and the furniture from Indonesia and sell it to Australia, of course with the high price. There are some workers there, for about 60 workers and half of the workers are females one. Two of the workers there need my help, then they asked for me to translate from Indonesian into English, they need additional salary from two Australian men. But suddenly, their director knew about it, and then two of his workers were fired out from his company. Actually, they need their right to be defended but who will do that to help them to get their right as a human being!Well, after I got some new lessons that were really touch me, how hard the world is for the workers and labors. It looks like they occupy the human resources not the natural resources. To protect their right as labors are really hard for us, still becomes the hottest issue in Indonesia even the biggest trouble, perhaps not only in Indonesia itself as one developing country have this problem, but also it happens in other developing countries. Well, after this big phenomenon hating me, I’m as young generation in Indonesia really wants to help them to escape them from their sadness. How to help them to get their own right? My first idea, I’d like to join in one of NGOs which protect the right of the labors society in Indonesia, by joining the NGO (Non governmental organization) even the IGO (intergovernmental organization) like the UN. I’m sure by joining these kinds of NGO or IGO. They can protect and maintain the right of the labors. Then directly by joining this IGO, the government of Indonesia will have rules for the labors in Indonesia itself of course to protect their right. As far as I know that the government does not really respond, if the labors will ask for to protect their right in order to establish good society for the labors in Indonesia, but at least the government will increase the income for the labors, but it looks like they did nothing because the government will return back to their policy. The government in Indonesia is known as the bad bureaucracy because they always do with corruption, collusion and nepotism. This is what like they did nothing, the money for the labors will be corrupted by the government, but if we use the role of NGOs or IGO they will control the government itself. My second idea that is, we should join in Political party which protects the right of the labors in Indonesia. Although in the last general election, Indonesia had the party which protected the right of labors that was Partai Serikat Buruh Indonesia or Indonesian Labor party, but the voice of this party was not big so it did not win for the election. Perhaps, if they won the election, it would be more effective for the Labors itself to protect and get their own right.My third idea is that we as the teenager gather together and should collaborate with the labors of Indonesia, and then we do the demonstration in the office of the government. If we need, we sacrifice for them. Although it looks unless brutal, it will help them so much. The government of Indonesia usually will respond if there are some victims to be sacrificed in order to get the policy from the government to protect the right for the labors. Of course with this kind of strategy, the government will realize, if they are wrong in seeing the labors of Indonesia, for the example like in the era of reformation. They should think about all the citizens in Indonesia without distinguish its citizen itself. It shows how big the youth influence the decision making for changing.The last one is, we as the young generation should inform to Mass media what is going on with the labor itself? Then it will give some information for other people that the labors should be protected, and by showing to mass media the people will support for the right of the labors. As we know that the Mass media in Indonesia is growing up nowadays. They always show the hottest issues that influence the public opinion like the demonstration of the Labors in last wee, and Indonesia society would be involved especially for the young who think about the destiny of the labors. Those points that are NGO and IGO, Political party, demonstration and mass media can influence even change the decision making of the government in Indonesia. Those points really can influence between the government and the public directly especially for the youth. And this shows how effective the youth can change the decision making from the government. The labors are human, we are equal, and no body should be distinguished to get their right, then they also should be protected like others
