A Greedy Fisherman

A long time ago in Sambas, West Kalimantan, lived a fisherman with his family. The
fisherman was poor. Everyday he went fishing in the river using his fishing rod, because he did
not have a net. That was why he always caught a few fish.
In one morning, he was not lucky because he had tried to get a fish but could not get one.
After waiting for a long time, finally he felt that a fish caught his bait. The fisherman thought. He
was thinking about the size of the fish. He knew that the big fish was very expensive. He hoped
he would get a lot of money if he could sell the fish. After thinking about the money, he
suddenly had more power to pull the string of his rod. He pulled the rod with great power, but
still, he did not succeed. The fisherman was very tired, he had been pulling with great power.
The fisherman decided to get some rest. Finally he tried to pull the string of his rod again, but he
didn’t see any fish! Instead, he found some wire on the hook. He looked at the wire carefully, he
was so happy. The wire was made of gold. He wanted to get the wire more and more until the
wire covered all area in his boat. Suddenly, there was a voice. “Enough, don’t take the wire
anymore”.
The fisherman ignored the voice. He wanted to take the gold wire as much as he could. He
continued pulling the gold wire. The boat was filled with the gold wire, so that it made the boat
sink to the bottom of the river. When he found out what happened, it was too late. The boat was
completely sunk and the fisherman panicked! Finally, the fisherman swam to the river side. He
regretted his bad behavior. People heard about the fisherman and his wire. Since then people
named the river as Wire River or SungaiKawat.

Have you ever wondered how chocolate is made? In this article we’ll enter the amazing
world of chocolate, so you can understand exactly what you’re eating.
Chocolate starts with a tree called the cacao tree. The tree grows in equatorial regions,
especially in places such as South America, Africa and Indonesia. The cacao tree produces a fruit
about the size of a small pineapple. Inside the fruit are the tree’s seeds, also known as cocoa
beans.
The beans are fermented for about a week, dried in the sun and then shipped to the
chocolate maker. The chocolate maker starts by roasting the beans to bring out the flavour.
Different beans from different places have different qualities and flavor, so they are often sorted
and blended to produce a distinctive mix.
Next, the roasted beans are winnowed. Winnowing removes the meat nib of the cocoa bean from
its shell. Then, the nibs are blended. The blended nibs are ground to make it a liquid. The liquid
is called chocolate liquor. It tastes bitter. All seeds contain some amount of fat, and cocoa beans
are not different. However, cocoa beans are half fat, which is why the ground nibs form liquid.
It’s pure bitter chocolate.

Do Women Deserve Higher Education?

The issue we are discussing is whether women need higher education or not. Some
people think that there is no use for women to get higher education, for women’s main role is
in their households and surroundings. Thus, knowing about practical household management is
sufficient for women to lead their lives.
In addition, higher education does not ensure women to get better life, so why bother
about it? There are many examples of women who are successful in their lives although they
only enjoy average education. They succeed in managing their household, educating their
children and participating in community activities.
On the other hand, some other people believe that women also have the right to get
higher education. They claim that education is important for everyone including women
because it is one way to improve the quality of life. Therefor, every woman must get education
as high as she can achieve.
A further point they make is that higher education is not just the matter of achieving a
better position in community or working environment. More importantly, it is the way to
empower women and to give them better understanding of life and universe.
In other words, women have the same right to get higher education as men do. However,
it is also their right to take the chance or just to leave it.

A. Education is the way to empower women.
