Traffic in Jakarta

            Jakarta as a capital city of Indonesia has the busiest life than other province in Indonesia. The citizen is increase every year and most of them come from other province. Moreover, based on the increase of citizen that living in Jakarta, there are also coincided with the addition of vehicle. That’s why “traffic” becomes one of the biggest issues in Jakarta. Vehicle is increase every year but there is no expansion of the road in Jakarta. The public transportation is cause the traffic because they usually stop not in their spot but they stop in the street. That’s why Jakarta is always traffic all day, especially in the main street.

My high school weakness

                As ex-student from my old school, Many weakness in my old school, but i know how to improve it. The idea is make it at least into national plus school. There are some reasons why I want to change it into at least national plus school.

                I would to change it because in this period of time a lot of people need more practice such as a language. As we know school is the best place that children growing up and learn everything. Beside that a national plus school at least they have a different type of book and different knowledge of course.

                Even though there are some intense competitions among schools, I believe that make some changes for my old school is the best way to improve it.

week 5

Leader OR Member??

As we know a group usually has a leader and members, but to be a leader of a group you should be have enough experiences. A leader or a member is same for me because both of them are the important factors in a group.

                As a leader you should have a big responsibility for their group. That is not an easy job for someone to lead a group if they do not have enough experience, because when you are a leader you should make your decision for your group. Furthermore as a leader of a group you should have a good personality, for example at least you should be brave to help your group member.

                In conclusion, as a leader in a group is quite hard and not easy at all. A leader should give their best performance while they are in a group.

week 4

Not everything that is contained in books

           A lot of people usually have their own argument about this topic. I totally agree with this point, because we usually heard that “an experience is the best teacher “. So from that words i believe not only a book can make us diligent but also the experience will help us when we growing up.

           The experience is the best lesson in our life. Without an experience we will not know something as well as we just read the theory. Although read the book is very important for our knowledge, with experience we also can add our knowledge. Furthermore the book usually just say about the theory but sometimes during we do something as same as the theory, it did not work. So, the knowledge from the book theory not 100 percent true.

           In conclusion knowledge gained from experience is more important than knowledge gained from books, although books are really important and full of knowledge. Theory without experience is nothing, because in a real situation we need an experience not just a theory.
