Fuel Price Must Be Dropped
Government should cancel the rise of fuel price done in the beginning of October 2005.
Most of Indonesian people badly beg it for some basic reasons.
First, for industry, the rise of fuel price will increase their production cost because the
must pay more for fuel and electricity used in the process of production. Consequently, it will
rise the selling price for the product. If the product price is increased, it will be hard for the
product to compete with the goods from other countries. The export will decrease rapidly and
government will lose the income from exporting goods.
Second, for workers, the rise of fuel price will force the company where they work to
limit the budget to low the production cost. One of the ways that is usually don by the employees
of a company is by cutting of the number or workers. It means hundreds even thousands of
workers will lose their jobs. The jobless people will increase instability of nations because they
will do whatever they can do to get some money, even by doing crime. What a dreadful
nightmare!
Thirdly,, for ordinary people. They must manage their finance to survive because the rise
of the fuel rice will increase the price of their basic need’s price. They have to find alternative
ways to survive; reducing the meals, postponing the buying of unnecessary things or event for
the from school. This is the worst.
]based on the facts above, considering the negative impact of the rise of the fuel price
above, government must cancel the rise and try to find other ways to cover the lack of the
national budget by not cutting the subsidy of fuel.

Good morning, ladies and gentlement
Thank you very much for the House of Representatives which had invited me to give the
speech concerning about the mystery sinetrons shown in many televisions presently. My name is
Budi Santoso, a lecturer at University of Indonesia majoring in mass communication. Here, I
represent the academics point of view about the subject we discuss this morning.
As we know, there are many mystery sinetrons shown on Television stations presently. The
sinetrons depict horrible scenes about the spirit world. It is described that spirits often disturb
people by frightening them in the darkness, when they walk alone at night or at the cemetery.

The spirits are pictured as frightening appearance such as white clothes flying corpse, shattered
face copse etc. the show must be abandoned for several reasons.
Firstly, it make a wrong perception of people especially children and women to do
activity at nights, for example going to the wells, even cooking at kitchen alone. How do you fell
if you always live in anxiety.
Thirdly, such kind of sinetrons waste out time to think unreal phenomena while we are
facing many kinds of living problems.
In brief, for the reason, I think television station must stop showing mystery sinetrons.
They are bad influences for people, frightening our children and destroying their belief to god.
Thank you very much for your attention.

The Ducks and the Turtle
Two ducks who lived in a big lake had a friend who was a turtle. One year there was a very
little rain and the lake began to dry up. One of the ducks said to the other,” Soon, there’ll be no
water in this lake. Let’s go and look for another lake.” “Yes.” Answered the second duck,” But
first let’s say goodbye to our friend, the turtle.”
When they told the turtle they were going to leave, he said,” I’ll die here without any water
and without any friends. Take me within you.” The duck answered,” We can’t. We are going to
fly, and you have no wings.”
The turtle thought for a minute and then said,” Please wait here.” Then he went away and
found a strong, straight stick. He brought it back to his friends, put the middle of it in his mouth
and said,” Now if each of you takes me one end of the stick in his mouth, you can lift me up and
carry me with you “
“There is one danger,” said the ducks,” If you try to talk while we’re carrying you through
the air, you won’t be able to hold the stick, so you’ll fall down along way and break your shell.”
“All right,” answered the turtle,” I promise not to talk while we’re in the air.” So the ducks
took the stick and flew away, with the turtle between them. All went well until they were flying
over a town. Then some people saw them and shouted,” Look, those ducks are carrying a cat!”

The Ducks and the Turtle
Two ducks who lived in a big lake had a friend who was a turtle. One year there was a very
little rain and the lake began to dry up. One of the ducks said to the other,” Soon, there’ll be no
water in this lake. Let’s go and look for another lake.” “Yes.” Answered the second duck,” But
first let’s say goodbye to our friend, the turtle.”
When they told the turtle they were going to leave, he said,” I’ll die here without any water
and without any friends. Take me within you.” The duck answered,” We can’t. We are going to
fly, and you have no wings.”
The turtle thought for a minute and then said,” Please wait here.” Then he went away and
found a strong, straight stick. He brought it back to his friends, put the middle of it in his mouth
and said,” Now if each of you takes me one end of the stick in his mouth, you can lift me up and
carry me with you “
“There is one danger,” said the ducks,” If you try to talk while we’re carrying you through
the air, you won’t be able to hold the stick, so you’ll fall down along way and break your shell.”
“All right,” answered the turtle,” I promise not to talk while we’re in the air.” So the ducks
took the stick and flew away, with the turtle between them. All went well until they were flying
over a town. Then some people saw them and shouted,” Look, those ducks are carrying a cat!”
