DEBATE MOTIONS

Posted by Ratna Tanjung on Tuesday, June 14, 2011

1. NATIONAL EXAMINATION SHOULD BE ABOLISHED

AFFIRMATIVE

blogger-emoticon.blogspot.com

National examination is one of the tests, especially for students in Indonesia, to conclude their study result. Start from students in Elementary School, students Junior High School, until Senior High School, they should be pass the NE in the last year of their study program. There are several lessons in NE. For elementary school, the lessons that should be pass by the students are, Mathematics, Indonesia language, and Natural science. For students in JHS, there are Mathematics, Indonesia language, Natural science, and English. And for students in SHS, they should pass Mathematics, Indonesia language, English, Biology, Chemistry, and Physic for science class, and Mathematics, Indonesia language, English, Geography, Sociology, and Economy for social class. And for Vocational High School, the lessons in NE are Mathematics, Indonesia language, English, and the specific lessons depend on the education background.

Accomplishment of NE is managed by the government base on our constitution section 58 verse 1 and 2 about national education system.

And NE should not be abolished, because from the government’s program point of view, students should pass the NE in order to continue their study to the next level. It’s one of the qualifications for students to continue their study to the higher level.

Another aim of NE is to know the students’ study result from the first year until the last year of their study program. From NE result, teacher and parents will be know how far their students’ and their children’s achievement.

And another reason why NE should not be abolished, because NE can give power and spirit for student to study hard in order to get the best achievement. Without strong motivation, students can not reach maximum result. And NE can create big motivation for students to get the best achievement, which useful for continuing their study. Beside NE can create motivation for students, NE also can create motivation for the teachers to increase the school quality, by increasing their teaching capability for creating the best graduators.

So, because of that reasons, NE should not be abolished, because actually NE has many advantages.

Thank you


NAGATIVE

National Examination is only one of test, especially for student in Indonesia, to conclude their study result. NE has done since 1965 until now. During 1965 until now, NE accomplishment always get several problems. And finally, in 2010 MA said that NE should be abolished.

Because from the score of graduation standard which defined by the government, it’s not relevant for all schools in Indonesia. A favorite school in a big city, can get score more than the standard score, easily. Because they have complete facilities in their school, such as digital library, competent teachers, and of course 24 hours internet access. Compare with students in inland school with limited facilities, and even no internet access, of course it’s so difficult for them to get some materials that they needed. It’s not fair, isn’t it??? And the consequence is they get the minimal score difficultly, even, they can not through the minimal score. So the standard score which made by the government is not compatible for all school in Indonesia. It’s not logic!

Another reason why NE should be abolished is from the students’ psychological point of view, NE makes pressure for them. It gives different sense for students. They feel nervous, and frighten to pass the NE. And in reality, there are many students try to suicide after know that they fail in NE. It’s so ironic, isn’t it?

And from the moral point of view, there are many untrue ways in NE. The teacher and the student do anything to get the best result, even; they dare to do untrue ways. Nothing honesty in NE! Whereas in reality intellectual without honesty doesn’t bring an advantage. Intellectual without honesty is meaning nothing!

So, because of that reasons, NE should be abolished, because there are many unfairness in NE.

Thank you


2. BUILD A NUCLEAR ENERGY


AFFIRMATIVE

Nuclear is one of physic thing, and its form is atom which has a central part. Nuclear can make a big energy. Nuclear energy is powerful form of energy produced by splitting the nuclei of atom and used to produce electricity.

We agree with build a nuclear energy. Because:

Firstly, from the affectivity point of view, nuclear energy is more effective than gas energy or the other. To full fill the electricity necessaries, NE only need little of fuel. So, if we only need a little of fuel, it means that we only spend a little money. For example, for every nuclear energy & gas energy which has 1000 megawatts capacity, for NE we just spend 96, 5 million dollars, and for gas energy we spend 204, 10 million dollars. And for building reactor cost, NE needs 106, 08 million dollars, & for gas energy needs 55, 18 million dollars. And the total from cost of production & cost of building a reactor, we can conclude the total cost for gas energy is 259, 28 million dollars, & the total cost for NE is only 202, 58 million dollars.

Using of NE to full fill the electricity necessaries, can save 275% of cost production if compared with gas energy. 1 kg of uranium is equal with 1000 – 3000 tons of coal, or equal with 160 trucks of oil which has 6500 liters capacity. So, once again NE is cheaper than gas or oil energy.

Secondly, from the natural resources point of view, 25% of wide of land in Indonesia is containing of radioactive mineral, especially uranium, as the main fuel for creating NE. And as we know that now, oil energy in Indonesia is rare, and its cost become more expensive. So, NE is an alternative energy that should be realized.

And thirdly, from the environment point of view, NE is safer than gas or oil energy. NE doesn’t create dangerous gas, like carbon monoxide, aerosol, sulfur dioxide, mercury, and nitrogen oxide. Try to compare with oil energy, which use fossil as the fuel. Using of fossil energy can make a bad effect, like global warming. So, NE is safer for environment than oil energy.

And because of that reasons, we agree with build a nuclear energy.

Thank you

NEGATIVE

Nuclear is one of physics thing which has dangerous effect for human being. Nuclear can create radiation that can make a big trouble for human’s body, and can change DNA system that can lead a cancer. And we disagree with built a nuclear energy. Because:

Firstly, from the safety point of view, Indonesia is a country with high earthquake potency, because Indonesia is located in pacific ring. Indonesia not only has high earthquake potency, but also Indonesia has many active mountains. So, it’s so dangerous for building nuclear reactor.

Secondly, from the cost of build reactor point of view, the cost for building reactor is not as cheap as you though. Because the construction of nuclear reactor needs many layers of safety wall to prevent a radiation leak. It means, we should spend a lot of money just for building a reactor. In addition, Indonesian people, especially the leader or the power one, is famous with their untrue ways. In the other words, the do corruption. What will happen if for building reactor, we need, for example 100 bags of cement, but because of the irresponsible one, 100 bags of cement can be just 80 bags of cement. What will happen with the reactor building? Whether that reactor would be safe? The answer is NO!

And if there were a radiation leak like in Japan or Chernobyl in Ukraine, what can we do? Whether we can solve that problem? Whereas until now we can not overcome a little problem like flood and traffic light! Because of that, build a nuclear energy should be banned.

And thirdly, from the citizen prosperity point of view, about 35% of Indonesian people don’t get electicity. And build a nuclear energy which spend much time and much money, will be blocked the electrification.

Because of that reasons, we disagree with build a nuclear energy.

Thank you


3. BUILD A NEW BUILDING


AFFIRMATIVE

Build is making something by putting parts or creating or develop something. Building is structure with a roof and walls. Build a new building is a process to create a new building to support our daily activities. In this globalization era, we need a new building to complete and support our activities. That building is such as hospitals, schools, modern and traditional markets, airports, gas station, and many more. We agree with build a new building. Because:

Firstly, from the mobilization point of view, people’s activities are always increasing. That’s why we need a complete infrastructure to support our daily activities. For example, in a little regional, we need some buildings, such as health care center, market, school, and block of house, to support our life.

Secondly, we agree with built a new building because from the increasing people point of view, we need build a new building like factory, as a work place for them. So they will have a job, and it means that unemployment is decreased. And to make a new building, certainly we need some workers to build up that building. And once again, it can create new job opportunity for every people.

Because of that reasons, we do agree with build a new building.

Thank you


NAGATIVE

Build is making something by putting parts or creating or develop something. Building is structure with a roof and walls. Build a new building is a process to create a new building in empty area, and that activity can decrease the green area in this earth. Because the area which used to build a new building is an area that usually full of trees. We disagree with build a new building because:

Firstly, from the environment point of view, build a new building can decrease the green area, because the area which used to build a new building is an area that usually full of trees. And if there were more building that built, it would decrease the population of trees. And it’s a big cause of global warming. Global warming is a bad situation where the temperature of this earth is increasing, because trees that be a filter of carbon dioxide is decreasing, so that CO2 will be flying into the sky and through the ozone layer and make destruction of ozone, so nothing filter for the sunlight. That which make global warming. So, build a new building should be banned, because it can decrease the trees population.

Secondly, from the ecosystem balancing point of view, build a new building can make confusion for ecosystem balancing. For example, in forest area which destroyed to build a new building, it can change the ecosystem. The animals have lost their natural habitat, and they will come into the people house to seek some food, and of course, they can destroy the people houses. Or even, they get death because they can not get some food to survive.

Because of that reasons, we disagree with build a new building.

Thank you


4. THE MIGRANT WORKER SHOULD BE BANNED


AFFIRMATIVE

Migrant worker is someone who moves from their native town to the new town to get a job and work there. They usually choose a big city with complete facilities, like Jakarta as the purpose town to get a job. They are willing to leave their native town just to get a job, whereas in their native town, they can get job, even they can create a job opportunity. We agree that the migrant worker should be banned. Because:

Firstly, from the job opportunity point of view, in their native town, actually there are many chance to get job, even they could create job opportunities. For example, they can be a farmer, use the rice field or empty land for planting many kinds of plants that can make income. For example, they can plan rice plant, corn tomatoes, or red pepper, and after those plants is already to harvest, they can sell them, and they can get much income. So, they do not need to work outside their native town.

Secondly, from the prosperity point of view, nobody can guarantee that the migrant worker would be more prosperous than before when they work in their native town. There are many people from village move to the big city like Jakarta, with big expectation to change their life. But in reality, most of them live in bad prosperity, event poorer than before. They should stay under the bridge, they stay in the garbage area, and not rare, they should be a street walker, and take a rest food for their main food. It’s so ironic.

Thirdly, we agree that migrant worker should be banned, because from the future of the purpose town point of view, if the migrants can not get any job, and they don’t have much money to continue their life, finally, they only to be a street walker or bagger. And this condition will make some problems in that town, and can increase the number of criminality.

Because of that reason, we do agree that the migrant worker should be banned.

Thank you


NEGATIVE

Migrant worker is someone who moves from their native town or their village to the new town to get a job and work there. They usually choose a big city with complete facilities, like Jakarta as the purpose town to get a job. They would rather choose a big city like Jakarta than their native town, because in a big city every facility is exist. There are many supermarkets, hospital and many companies, which need many employees. We disagree that the migrant worker should be banned. Because:

Firstly, from the prosperity point of view, if they work in a big city, they can get much payment than in their native town. They can get much income, and to be more prosperous. And in reality, there are many people who move from their village to the big town, to change their life. And in fact, they can be more prosperous, with good payment that they got from their job in that town. Even, they can build a house in their village. It appears that their prosperity is increasing.

Secondly, from the facilities point of view, in a big town there are many factories, and there are many facilities that they never find in their village before. And of course, they can work in there.

And thirdly, because in a big town there are many factories, and public facilities, so they can work there. And that way can decrease the number of unemployment. And make them and their family to be more prosperous than before.

Because of that reasons, we disagree that the migrant worker should be banned.

Thank you


5. SENSOR TV PROGRAM


AFFIRMATIVE

Sensor is a process of wiping out the negative part from a program, especially from TV program. TV program is every program start from news, education program, until entertainment program. There are many positive and negative and negative effects from TV program. The positive effects from TV program are we can get much information, such as sport info, health info, the actual news, and we can get education from the education program that showed in TV. And event, we can get entertainment from many programs that showed in TV. But, we should remember that beside the positive effect from TV program, there are many bad / negative effect that caused by TV program. Because of that, we need do sensor TV program. Sensor TV program is the way to delete or hide the negative parts from TV program, such as pornography, bad words, and hardness actions. We do agree with sensor TV program, because:

Firstly, from the viewers’ protection point of view, sensor TV program can protect the viewers, especially children and teenagers from the negative thing of TV program. So, with sensor TV program, they can not watch the bad show, like bad attitude, and bad words. So they will not to imitate the bad parts from TV program, and finally they will be a polite one.

Secondly, from the TV program point of view, nowadays, there are many TV programs that full of hardness, include the program for children. So, sensor TV program is needed to delete the negative parts, and select the positive parts to be showed.


NEGATIVE

Sensor is a process of wiping out the negative part from a program. TV program is every program start from news, education program, until entertainment program. TV program is actually gives many advantages for the viewers, such as sport info, health info, the actual news, education, and we can get entertainments from the program that showed on TV. Actually, programs that show on TV are specific for every age. The producer, before make a TV program, they decide for whom this TV program. For example, they make a TV program which only decided to the children, they make a TV program which only decided to the adult, and they make a TV programs which decided to every age. So, TV programs have specific viewers, and we disagree with sensor TV program that should delete or hide some parts of TV program, because:

Firstly, like what I said before, from the purpose of TV program production point of view, actually every TV program has specific viewers, such as cartoon is dedicated to everyone, especially for the children, news is dedicated to everyone, and there are some programs that especially dedicated to the adult. So, sensor TV program is not necessary, because every TV program has the specific viewers.

Secondly, from the artistic point of view, sensor TV program will block the art development. The artist will not feel free to express their creation, and their imaginations. So, they will not create a TV program totally. So sensor TV program just block their creativities to create a wonderful TV program. And will be better if TV program should be banned.


6. DIPLOMACY IS THE SOLUTION FOR RELEASING THE HIJACKED SHIP


AFFIRMATIVE

Diplomacy is management of relation between countries. Diplomacy is the best way to solve the problem between countries. And diplomacy is the right way for releasing the hijacked ship, like that our country done, in the beginning of this month. The Somali pirates were holding Sinar Kudus ship from Indonesia. Not only the ship from our country that was holding by the Somali pirates, but also there are still many ships from another country that were holding by them. But now, after 46 days of holding, finally our government can solve that problem by doing diplomacy with Somali pirates. And diplomacy is the right way for releasing the hijacked ship, because:

Firstly, from the safety of ship crew point of view, diplomacy is the right way to save all of the crew ship. Because the safety of the ship crew is the most important thing. In opening part of our constitution, said that one of our county’s goals is protect all of the Indonesian people. Because of that, diplomacy is the best way to guarantee the safety of the ship crew.

Secondly, from the benefit of diplomacy point of view, diplomacy will decrease the human and property victims. And if we choose war for releasing the hijacked ship, we will lose much money to prepare the war, and of course war will increase the human victim. So once again, diplomacy is the safest way for releasing the hijacked ship.


NEGATIVE

Diplomacy is management of relation between countries. Diplomacy is not the solution to solve the problem between countries, especially for releasing the hijacked ship. Because there are many disadvantages if we release the hijacked ship by doing diplomacy. And we disagree that diplomacy is the solution for releasing the hijacked ship, because:

Firstly, from the solving time point of view, if we choose diplomacy way, we will spend much time for releasing the hijacked ship. Like the releasing of Sinar Kudus ship, it spent 46 days for releasing process. It spent too much time.

Secondly, from the military force point of view, our country has strong military force, Start from best army, air force, and also the navy, that have the good capability for releasing the hijacked ship. Not only has the military force, our country also had a high technology weapon that can use to attack the pirates. More over, the duties and the functions of the force are protect and do action if there are some threats, like the hijacked ship problem.

Thirdly, from the amount of money that asked by the pirates for saving the ship crew is too much. For get that amount, especially in the situation like happen today, it’s so difficult. And it will make bad effect financial for our country. In addition, the military force can make the pirates have a fright. Because of that reason, we disagree that diplomacy is the solution for releasing the hijacked ship.

Thank you


7. PROHIBIT THE MILITARY FORCE BECOMING AN ARTIST


AFFIRMATIVE

Military force is someone who has a duty and responsibility to protect and safe a country from every problem. They have big responsibility with this country. Because they are as the protector of this country. And would be better if they don’t becoming an artist. Because:

Firstly, from their main duty and responsibility point of view, the military force has big and hard responsibility. They should protect and secure this country from every threat. 24 hours nonstop, they should be ready to protect all the citizens. Because of that reason, we do agree with prohibit the military force becoming an artist. Because if they becoming an artist, they couldn’t be focus with their main duty. Whereas, their main duty is protect this country from every threat. And then, who else that will protect this country, if all of the military force are busy with their new job on TV?

Secondly, from the management time point of view, if the military force were permitted to becoming an artist, they will be difficult to manage their schedule. Even, they will forget with their main duty to protect this country and all of the citizens.

Thirdly, from the image point of view, if the military force becoming an artist, all of their attitude will be exposed by the reporter, include their bad attitude. So this report can make their image becoming bad, or even worse. And the bad effect from this report is the people would not believe in them again. Because of that reason, we do agree with prohibit the military force becoming an artist.

Thank you


NEGATIVE

Military force is someone who has a duty and responsibility to protect and safe a country from every problem. Their duty is spend a lot of energy. Because every day, they should do physical exercise, they always get mental force to make their mental and physically to be stronger. So, don’t be surprise if they have hard mental. We don’t agree with prohibit the military force becoming an artist, because:

Firstly, from their main duty point of view, as we know that they have a big responsibility with this country. They should protect and safe this country from every threat. Because of that, to make their mind and their body relax, they also need entertainment such as art. They could enjoy any kinds of music that they like, and even they can distribute their capability in art. They could sing or play a music instrument to make their mind relax. Or even they could be an artist. With art they could be more relax and avoid from pressure. So we disagree with prohibit the military force becoming an artist.

Secondly, from the human right point of view, everybody could be an artist. They have same right to do it, include the military force.

Thirdly, from the humanity point of view, if the military force becoming an artist, they would be closer with people, they could entertain all the people. The people would be more believe in them, and the people would never judge them as a scary one. So we should permit the military force becoming an artist. Because it can change the image of military force to be more humanly.


8. MILITARY POWER SHOULD BE USED FOR TACKLING DOWN THE POWER OF COUNTRY


AFFIRMATIVE

Military power is a power that consists of army, navy, and air force. Its duty are protect and safe a country from every threat and attack. And we do agree that military power should be used for tackling down the power of a country, because:

Firstly, from the military force point of view, our country has strong and good military force, start from army, navy, and air force. With their capability, they could protect our country, and tackle down the power of a country. Not only capability of military force, but also our county has modern weapons. It can support the occupation of our military force.

Secondly, military power should be used for tackling down the power of a country, because it so useful to make a country has a fright. So they don’t have courage to disturb our country life.

Thirdly, from the image of our country point of view, military power should be used for tackling down the power of a country, because it’s needed to hold our country’s image. Because of that reason, we do agree that the military power should be used for tackling down the power of a country.

Thank you


NEGATIVE

Military power is a power that consists of army, navy, and air force. Military power should not be used for tackling down the power of a country, because:

Firstly, from the bad effect point of view, war will increase the human and property victims. Victims from country that attack or victims from country that attacked. Because an attack from a country will make an attack feed back from country that attacked. And it will make many victims on the both of country that include in the war.

Secondly, military power should not be used for tackling down the power of a country, because we could do diplomacy to solve every problem that happens between countries. Diplomacy is the safest solution. By doing diplomacy, it can decrease the victims on the both of country, or even nothing victim. Beside that, diplomacy can make a relationship between countries to be better. So, it’s not necessary to use military power for tackling down the power of a country.

And thirdly, from the worst effect point of view, using military power for tackling down the power of a country will make big trouble in county that attacked, or even war will make bigger trouble in our country. Because in war, the military force are using modern or even the killer weapons like chemistry weapon, to tackle down the power of a country. It will bring scary situation on the both of country. Because of that reasons, we disagree that military power should be used for tackling down the power of a country.

Thank you


9. CRIMINALIZE SEXUAL TRANSMITTED DISEASE


AFFIRMATIFE

Sexual transmitted diseases is a disease that transmitted by doing sexual activity. Diseases that belong to sexual transmitted diseases are syphilis, gonorrhea, and AIDS. Sexual activities that do illegal it can be divided into criminality. And every kind of criminality should be punished. We do agree with criminalize sexual transmitted disease, because:

Firstly, from the legality point of view, sexual activities that that do illegal, it can divided into criminality, especially violence sexual.

Secondly, from the disadvantages point of view, illegal sexual activities that cause sexual transmitted diseases will make disadvantages for the one who infected. And once again, every activity that make disadvantages for someone, it can be criminalized.

Thirdly, from the psychology point of view, someone who infected sexual transmitted diseases, their psychology will be pressed down. Or even they will be shunned by the people. And he or she can report the person who had harmed them to the police. Or in the other words, they can criminalize this case. Because of that we do agree with criminalize sexual transmitted diseases.

Thank you


NEGATIVE

Sexual transmitted diseases is a disease that transmitted by doing sexual activity. Diseases that belong to sexual transmitted diseases are syphilis, gonorrhea, and AIDS. Criminalize sexual transmitted diseases is not logic. We doesn’t agree with criminalize sexual transmitted diseases, because:

Firstly, actually the transmission of disease doesn’t belong to crime. Whatever the type of disease, whether the sexual transmitted diseases or not, the transmission of disease is not crime. So, we can not criminalize sexual transmitted diseases.

Secondly, from the evidence point of view, if we criminalize sexual transmitted diseases, nothing strong evidence to make sexual transmitted diseases be criminalized. To criminalize a case, we should have enough evidence. And in this case, nothing enough evidence to judge someone as the transmitter of sexual transmitted diseases.
