Is Social Networks Good For Us ?

In fact, there are more than 800 million user in around the world who use Social Networks,
including Facebook, Twitter, Hello, Friendster, MySpace, YouTube, etc. Even, one user has
more than one Social Network website. The user itself including parents, teenagers, youths,
and kids. However, is Social Network useful for us?
Two social networks that have much members are facebook and twitter. At these website,
teenagers and older people can use the website for sharing files and photos, communicate
with their old friends, and send email by themselves, or just using it as their online shop.
There is an opinion that social network is using for add other friends. It is not only teenager
nor older people that use it, but it is used by kids also. In fact, the children that use it,
sometimes, do not know the advantage of the network, and they do not know their aim. In
their mind, hopefully, they will add many friends. However, is it a really friend?
In fact, as we found, the networks has more negative effects than positive. The example of
positive effect as written above. In fact, however, the negative effect really affect the user,
suchas healthy problems as the user tend to live alone, or in the other word, they will isolate
themselves. This is the dangerous, since when they isolate themselves, their genetic will be
changed, reducing their imun, hormonal level, blood capilarity, and break down their
mentality; lazy to move their body, obesity; even physical problem when they use its mouse
or push its keyboard several hours a day, or minimize their abilities to know the social
problem and cannot understand body language. In this matter, the users cannot disturb by
anyone else who want to discuss an important matters. It means that if there is decreasing
interaction among them, it will increasing persons that do not want to solve problems. The
other facts are the user tend to waste money, waste time, and other negative culture.
In the case of student, there are many reports that motivator is difficult to motivate the user.
While students crazy to use the network, their motivation to study hard will going down. Of
course, their abilities are down ward also. Another effect will happen, including assasination
and other long term cases.
I realize that many people will say that there are advantage of the network compared to
anything that will be happened. Unfortunately, there are many cases when one use social
network in a long time. Therefore, is social network useful for us?

Corruption and Indonesian Culture

Corruption has happened for many years and today it becomes a bad culture in Indonesia
for three reasons.
Most adult Indonesian or foreigners have known and admitted that corruptions happen in
many places. The daily newspapers, news programs on TV and radio have reported
corruptions are done everywhere, almost in all departments or public services of this country.
Corruptions happen in health, education departments and banks. When we manage to get
somedocuments in public service offices, we usually need much money to pay. Manipulations
happen everywhere.
The actions to eliminate corruption are weak. The ever stronger culture seems not to come to
an
end when the responsible institutions who have to reinforce the justice today commit
corruption. This is the worst. Corruptions happen in police department, courts where judges,
public prosecutors, lawyers make deals to do corruption. All of us also heard in the end of
2004, Probosutejo reported that he had bribed the Supreme Court, or called Mahkamah
Agung which becomes the highest level where the justice can be obtained. Perhaps you have
to try to come to the local courts and see what happen there. You will see practices of bribery
and other kinds of corruption. Therefore, we can say that corruptions becomes our culture.
Do you like it?
The citizens have no goodwill to fight against the corruption. They create the situations in
which people have opportunities to do corruptions. The citizens like to break the rules
because they are not disciplined. For example, in the street when they drive a car or ride
motorcycle, they do not have the driving license or necessary documents. Then, they are
caught by the local policemen. To avoid more difficulties, they like to bribe the officer. The
officer let them go then. In other words, the citizens and officers are the same, doing
corruption together. If only the people were critical, disciplined, and obey the rules, and
willing to report any wrong behaviors, this country will not be number one corrupting
country in the world.
In conclusion, corruption is becoming a bad culture in Indonesia if it is not ended soon by all
of us. It seems that there must be more severe penalty for the corruptors. Do we still care
about the future of this country?
