In the next five years, I’d like to see lots
of positive changes take place in my country, Indonesia. I don’t have to be a
major change that leads Indonesia to be a developed country like USA or
Singapore. Instead, small positive changes would give better impact than
nothing, right?
In the next five years, I’d like to see a
better government system and better government employees in Indonesia.
Nowadays, lots of the governors and civil servants corrupt the country’s
budget. It is a lot better now than 5 years ago, where the TV programs were
full of the corruption news. Thus I think in 5 years I’d like to see no
corruption case in Indonesia anymore.
I’d also like to see a more open-minded
society and no more racist people. The country’s development is also affected
by the citizens. In such wise, if we don’t have good citizens, this country
won’t develop well. Indonesian citizens should be more open-minded about everything.
We should be willing to hear each other opinion and not being conservative
about one idea. I think now, as well as in the future, being racist is not
cool. So, stop being racist and start to love our diversity.
I see that there are lots of poor families
today, so I hope in the next 5 years the number of poor families will decrease,
and more people will have a good quality of life, because every person in the
country deserves the same rights to have a good quality of life. They should
have better nutrition, in fact that many poor families today suffer from
malnutrition. Many also do not have access to clean water, which oblige them to
use dirty water for their everyday usage. There are many more that we,
especially the governments in this case can do to help these poor families.
One of the most common social issues today
is that many parents could not afford their children’s education. Hence, a lot
of the country’s next generations are uneducated. I really appreciate Mr.
Jokowi’s program of the free schooling that he made so that more poor children
can go to school without paying the school fee. But this program has not been
spread equally all over the country, only some cities have this program
already. I wish in the next 5 years, this program will spread all over the
country. Therefore, more children can go to school.
The last change I want to see it take place
in Indonesia is a fast internet connection. The internet connection in
Indonesia is considered a slow compared to other countries such as South Korea
and Sweden. Today, internet is one of the most important aspects of human’s
life. The internet helps us connected with someone far away, do homework or
researches, play games, or just simply to post selfies on Instagram and watch
your favorite youtuber on Youtube. But slow internet connection will make our
activities take a long time. Slow internet connection could ruin everything;
students ca get no marks because they didn’t do their homework, you could have
miscommunication between you and your girlfriend or boyfriend, or you
could be undated with the latest news today. Thus, I hope we could make
Indonesia’s internet connection faster.
Changes won’t happen if there are no
actions. We all have to be willing to do things that support the change. I
believe that small actions could make a big difference to our lovely country,
Indonesia.
