Hello ladies and gentlemen! My name is Ni Luh Arisda Satya Cahya
Dewi and I am representative of SMA Negeri 2 Amlapura. This time, I would like to talk about Wonderful Indonesia : Nationalism in Unity of Diversity. Ladies and gentlemen, we all know that Indonesia is immensely beautiful with its uniqueness, it has so many natural and cultural wealth. Indonesia is home to hundreds of ethnic groups speaking many different languages. Not only that, Indonesia’s geographical conditions and tourism places are essentially needed as its component for Indonesia as a wonderful Indonesia as we all know. Wonderful Indonesia is a massive sentence that showing Indonesia’s gorgeousness that is vibrantly gleaming in Southeast Asia as the result of its richness. For example, Indonesia has Bali that well known as paradise island with Balinese people in it as a major ethnic in Bali with lots of traditions and its captivating attractions like Tari Kecak as one of Balinese dances. Another example is Raja Ampat in Papua with its luxury view of nature including its marine tourism and also the uniqueness of Asmat ethnic as one of the ethnicities in Papua. The examples that I just informed you all are only a little bit of thousands wonderfulness of Indonesia. But in 2019 Indonesia existences has been questioned, why? This is a crucial problem that Indonesia has to handle meticulously as a developing country. We as Indonesian citizens need to have awareness about our country with its progress. As we see, nowadays, more and more Indonesians are prefer to go to the other countries instead of exploring the richness of Indonesia. More and more people proudly following other countries' cultures and life styles. It seems like we especially as young generations lack of nationalism of Indonesia. Thing that we can do to help is being proud to be Indonesian. We don’t have to be ashamed to be a part of Indonesian. Instead of just learn about foreign skills, we can also learn traditional cultures more and also try to make an innovation to bring back the majesty of Indonesia. Eager to be one of the change makers for Indonesia’s bright future is all that we need as the young generations. Strong nationalism in unity of diversity is a truly wonderful Indonesia. So that’s all from me. Thank you very much.
