The importance of Reading
I personally think that reading is very important activity in our life. Why
do I say so?
Firstly, by reading we can get a lot of knowledge about many things in
the world such as science, technology, sports, artc, culture, etc written
in either books, magezine, newspaper, etc.
Secondly, by reading we can get a lot of news and information about
something happening in any parts of the world which can we see
direcly.
Another reason, reading can give us pleasure, too. When we are tired,
we read books, newspaper or magezine on the inertainment coloumn
such as comedy, short story, or quiz, etc. to make us relaxed.
The last, reading can also take us other parts of the world. By reading
a book about Irian Jaya we may feel were really sitting in the jungles
not in home in our rooms.
From the facts above, it;s obvious that everyone needs to read to get
knowledge, summary we can say reading is truly important in our life.

Corruption
Do you know what the meaning of corruption is? What is the relatio
between money and corruption? Well corruption is common
everywhere in the world, even in the United States. Its just a
matter of intensity. However, it is quite shocking when one reliable
survey claims Jakarta as the most corrupt place in Indonesia.
Teh survey ha made me sad, actually, because I stay and earn
living here in the capital. As most people know, Tanjung Priok port
smugging is not a new thing at all. Entrepreneurs who wants to
minimize their tax payments tend to do such a thing more often.
They even bribe the officials.
Well, I think the measures taken so far to overcome the problem
by punishing the corruptors is still not far enough. We have to
prevent the younger generations from getting a bad mentality
caused by corruption.
I believe we should start at the earlist stages in school and i think
everyone should be involved in the effort to eradicate corruption.
We must not make any distinction.
