The best thing in life is FREE

Yes finally, i decided to start the citizen journalism project. For this pilot project i will focus on tourism of Indonesia. As a pilot project it is still in Delta version.
The idea of this project is to help promote Indonesia’s tourism in the virtual world. The website is not designed as a competition or rival to existing tourism website Indonesia but as a comrade and complement thereto. Certainly there is element of competition or rivalry but it is more directed at myself in a sense of providing and improving the website in a way that could help people to get the right information.
The website will mainly consist of some cross posting which i quote from other websites such as my-indonesia.info, and the Jakarta Post.
However, there will be more and more exclusive content that I will provide from my own resource, experiences, or from contribution of the like-minded. At the moment, a cousin of mine who happened to be a photographer has contributed his potraits of some destinations in Indonesia.
If you want to help please let me know… or read the section "Grow It" to give you some examples.
This is the address of the website: http://tourism-indonesia.net

Help me to improve the website to the Gamma Version

Cheers.

apakah kalian membenci sinetron Indonesia? mana mungkin ada orang sekaya itu… atau mana mungkin dalam hidup ada orang sekejam dan setega itu.
hati-hati karena ternyata tidak semuanya yang di sinetron itu adalah segombal seperti yang kita kira. . ternyata memang ada orang setega ibu Hebring (sinetron jadul), atau sekejam Bawang Merah dalam kehidupan kita.
ya begitulah jalan hidupku yang membawaku ke suatu pengakuan yang sangat susah…. "maafkan aku Punjaabi telah meremehkan sinetron kalian"…. life can indeed be as cruel as you … i mean as your sinetrons.

No doubt that Chirstmas is one of the most celebrated holidays globally.
people
across across the globe somehow benefit from Chistmas .. at the least
form is by taking some days off our routines and works
some even make profit therefrom.

Well,
Christmas was not as fun as it is presented nowadays. It was actually
pretty sorrowful (at least from the way it was told in the bible)

• many
  mothers lost their babies around that time. the ruler of the land
  (forgot the name) was said to have ordered execution of male babies out
  of his fear for one particular baby - who was prophecied to be the King
  of the Jews.
• the parents of that particular baby had to flee
  Israel for Egypt… and went back to Israel before the delivery…
  (such long distance travel was rather of compulsory reasons and could
  be deadly for the travellers)
• the mother was carrying a baby in her during the travel to Israel from Egypt.
• the couple could not find any decent accomodation.. maybe it was peak season?
• the baby said to be delivered in a meanger (among animals?) not even in a proper bed

well,
even if you dont believe truly in the stroy or you believe in different
kidn of story, it is only proper that Christmas should be remembered
the way it was told in the Bibel for that is why we have it now : in a
sorrowful and mournful manner.

the birth of the baby Christ
Jesus was told that he is come to save the human being from the eternal
death. His coming was a joy of different kind from that we see around
us today. It was not a joy out of shining and blinking lights, gifts,
or such kind but the joy of realising that God cares about us so much
that Christ was sent in such a manner. — that is our truest and
ultimate benefit from the birth of Christ Jesus.

may you make the most benefit from it.

i have been regularly visiting this wonderful Berlin International Baptist Church.
i am happy and surprised that among the secular and humanism-oriented people of the west there are actually christian groups that are alive.
I am not talking only in terms of participants (although it is worth mentioning that this church is attended and backed by youths)
However, more important it is to note that the church emphasis on true aspects of christianity that is personal relations with God but also the need or desire to witness it to the people who has not come to know Jesus.
Today’s sermon again reminded me to ask myself the very question whether i have spread the good news to the people in my walk of life. I have wondered about the question and thought that if I live in Christ’s way, i would have been already an open letter about Jesus. I never regarded this preposition as a final answer so today again it was put under question. IS IT ENOUGH?
In the sermon, it was mentioned that people could actually see ‘the Light’ through our life but still have no idea where the light  come from… unless we openly credit it to the Lord Jesus.
well… i wonder if i have been defending my actual reluctance or hesitance to proclaim my faith because my life has not been really a model of christianity maybe i simply have not had the urge to witness because I have not actually had it in abundance.
come to think of it, maybe i dont have to wait for a better me … cause i will never be perfect enough to witness the perfect love of Jesus. now i wonder whether witnessing itself is  a part of process to embetterment… so many questions about life…
i guess the only way to find out is to decide and carry on!….. so help me Lord!

Yth Ibu Menneg PP,
barusan saya membaca berita Detik.com yang sangat menggelitik: "Sidak Stasiun Senen - Menneg PP: Toilet KA Kotor" …
dengan
segala hormat, itu bukan sesuatu yang baru. jaman saya pulang pergi
jogja-jakarta (medio 1993 - 1997 ) dengan kereta api apalagi kelas
ekonomi yaaa WC KA itu memang sudah kotor gitu, Ibu.
KA Senja
Ekonomi, KA Empu Jaya, atau KA Jayabaya bener2 setali tiga uang. yang
berbeda dari mereka hanya nama dan jadwalnya saja… kalau kotornya dan
kenyamanannya ya memang sama2 kotor dan sama2 tidak nyaman. Tahukah ibu
kalau WC yang kotor itu pun bahakan dijadikan tempat duduk atau tiduran
penumpang yang sudah membludak menjejali kereta?
Jangan-jangan
Ibu dan menteri lainnya selalu dapat laporan yang bagus-bagus yaaa?
This is a simple, and long-standing fact (if not a problem).. and to
hear it from a person of high authority lyou is still very
disappointing although not surprising any more.
Demikian surat ini saya sampaikan sebagai bahan pertimbangan dan periksa dan sebagai bahan uneg-uneg saya.

freely yours,

1. gw baru tau kalo semboyan lion air
   adalah "we make people fly". mungkin maksud si pembuat semboyan adalah

Akhirnya presiden Indonesia selaku sATU calon penghargaan Nobel harus menerima kekalahan dari seorang  M. Yunus asal Bangladesh.
Hebat juga bung Yunus ini yang mencoba memecahkan masalah real di sekitarnya… ngga usah muluk ke luar negeri atau menyelenggarakan perhelatan akbar cuman buat menyatakan dukungan … bleh!

Emang layak dia untuk dapatk

you stopped by the sideways of a one-way street to pick up a friend
your friend entered your car
a van-like car passed by your car with
as you began to resume your journey of daily routine to office….
the van-like car stopped and make a unbelievably fast backward move!
you saw that it would hit your car… yet time was not with you not even to blow the horn!
BANG! your vision became reality…
your day was not so ordinary!

the police came… and approached the lady in van…
she claimed she was ill and needed ambulance…
she told the police that you hit her car! what a humbug!
what would you do? what would you feel?
I pray for her… I am sorry for her…

skin of the colors doesnt tell you anything… when money is involved and guilt is in charge…
we all look green and pale….

Germans or bule or people from developed countries can be just as sly and unsincere like the very people in the southern part of the world when they have to be accountable for their deed.
Law is not always true… Recht ist nicht waar!
People with excesive legality but less truth and compassion is as sorry as people with less legality with less truth and compassion …

the truth shall set you free…

and it set my mind free from the car and hatered

saudara-saudariku sebangsa dan setanah air tolong disebarkan kabar gembira bahwa Indonesia telah resmi bebas dari krisis!!!

Wapres: Indonesia Sudah Tidak Krisis Lagi
Gagah Wijoseno - detikcom
Jakarta - Masih banyak warga Indonesia yang
miskin. Tingkat pengangguran pun cukup
tinggi. Namun, menurut Wakil Presiden Jusuf
Kalla, saat ini, Indonesia sudah tidak
mengalami krisis lagi. Sebab, pendapatan
perkapita Indonesia sudah mencapai US$
1.500.
Hal ini disampaikan Wapres dalam
sambutannya saat membuka Konsolidasi
Legislatif dan Eksekutif Partai Kebangkitan
Bangsa (PKB) di Hotel Sari Pan Pacific, Jl. MH
Thamrin, Jakarta Pusat, Minggu (30/7/2006).
Pada kesempatan itu, Wapres menolak
anggapan bahwa Indonesia masih dalam
kondisi krisis. "Pendapatan per kapita kita saat
ini US$ 1.500. GDP (gross domestic bruto) kita
Rp 3.000 triliun. Jika dibagi 220 juta penduduk
Indonesia, maka pendapatan per kapita kita
US$ 1.500," kata Wapres.
Saat krisis moneter beberapa tahun lalu,
pendapat per kapita Indonesia hanya US$ 700.
"Tapi kan sekarang sudah dua kali lipat. Maka
Indoesia tidak krisis lagi," kata dia.
Setuju?(asy)

Asy/Gagah… kamu ngapain tanya lagi !?!?

brur and sis yg di indonesia gw tunggu traktirannya ya kan pendapatan kalian sudah 2 kali lipat sekarang! awas lo.

pertama sih biasa-biasa aja
makin lama makin lucu
sampai akhirnya aku tertawa sambil menangis meringis!
sampai kapan…
udah ah aku mau menangis eh tertawa lagi….
