THE IMPORTANT OF SCHOOL

I thank of God for giving the health and time to share a knowledge on this historic
day, the day of national education.
Ladies and Gentlemen
Indonesia is a big country, inhabited by hundreds of millions people includes
islands spread widely. We have been independent since 1945, but I think Indonesia is not
yet independent in terms of education. Although we have changed curriculum almost
every year, but it proved that the Indonesia education has not been able to give result a
great human resources class as developed countries.
Ladies and Gentlemen
I tried to draw a line to the back, and I get the irony which is really disappointing.
In this very rich country, there are so many students drop out of school, do not a uniform,
and swim to go to school because a the broken bridge. It is an irony in the midst of our
state assets.
Statistic of school buildings damaged and have not been improved are also too
much. It is happening in the provinces that are far away from the centre of government
and gives continuing negative effect on the education system in the province it self.
Of course, a child who does not get an education will have difficulties in achieving
a better standard of living in his future. You have seen that a lot of ignorance and poverty
arise because so many crimes arising from poverty.
Ladies and Gentlemen
Education is a major key to get a better state order. Trough proper and best
education, we are able to give result high-quality human resources, eradicate ignorance,
and destroy poverty.
Therefore, let us together to be students and teachers that are diligent, sincere, and
keep trying without the unyielding. We are Indonesia, a rich country that should have the
best education. Do not give up on the fate of our nation rightnow, and continues to
struggle in gaining an independence education.
I would like to thank you all for giving me the opportunity to convey these short
useful messages.
Thank you for all the attention.
