Nation that Degrading Work Ethics

The behavior of a nation is not created in a short time, but is formed during the year through culture and education.
This nation back slumped in a small portrait of the sports arena XXIII SEA Games which ended Monday (5 / 12) in Manila. In the big picture, this nation called the nation who behave do not appreciate the process, do not like hard work, but want almost instantaneous. Why it all happened?
Look at the state universities which have long suffered an "accident". As many as 99 percent of teachers are themselves graduates who took the S2 and S3 in the country. Most of them later to teach and test.
Meanwhile, the absorption of the courses the student teachers fed only 20-30 percent. This situation is exacerbated by the behavior of most students who have not enjoyed reading a book. Though the book is a window to the world.
A panelist who devoted most of his life in college observed, both lecturers and students no longer respect the discipline. Before the 1970s or during the Sukarno era, this attitude is still good, in the sense that they know discipline. Why is that, because of the lessons from the Japanese and Dutch still dripping to the nation's leaders at that time.
However, since the 1970's superior behavior began to decline. They started working and laziness lazy disciplined. Both students and lecturers often truant. According to studies, over 40 years of teaching there is no one else who follows college students each week in one complete semester.
"Most student attendance only 10 times in one semester. And I've been doing the warning, sarcasm or anger, and so on, not ignored, "he complained. That is, the urge laze in academic circles is very strong. Worst of all, the professor himself liked to skip.
Common symptoms are found not only among the college, but hindered to schools of low and medium. There is a presumption that after high school and enter college, they all can live free. Want to come to college, want to skip, no nothing. This is very surprising, the symptoms that flourished during this country built during the New Order.
Similarly, employee behavior in college was supposed to come at 7:00, in general, come at 09.00. If we're talking about class schedules, no lecturers who want to teach in 0700. I wish they taught at the 9:00 o'clock or 10:00 o'clock. When panelists are scheduled to teach at 7:00 o'clock, from 50-80 students who arrive on time just 10 people.
In his experience, after an hour, they come one after another. The entry is also unique, open the door immediately after the sitting. Nothing to apologize for the delay. They think, this course our right, so are free to go to college or not. Furthermore, they generally do not want to study hard and do not like reading books.
"Once when I check the dictates of what I have to share. It's really surprising, I see it is very clean dictates. There is no record of him so much that the test of time can not be answered. Yet all in dictates, "he said.
Education antikerja
An analysis of the behavior of people in the developed states, the majority of everyday people to follow the basic principles of life. For instance, respect of ethics, honesty and integrity, responsibility, respect for the rule of law and society, respect for the rights of people / other people, love at work, trying desperately to save and invest, work hard until the appropriate time.
The students in the advanced countries learn to call it work. In the United States, for example, if a student had said, I must to work, that means learning or college. However, in this republic of the students did not. Once a minister of education stated, more children like school, but did not like working. Unfortunately, the curriculum, ranging from primary school through college, impressed the anti-labor.
In the curriculum, course manual work almost never existed. Fact that there is also always advisable to be removed. Once this type of curriculum which entered the Dutch colonial government. The former country towns, starting in the 1970s, later replaced with the official name of art skills or crafts. IKIP been in discussions all over Indonesia, field craft skills are separated from the fine arts.
In the days of the New Ode, all the media newspapers, television, radio and publicize that distinction. So the school was only for mental work, not physical labor. Crafts lesson ever. But then should not be used by students to do anything that produces nothing.
Yang said that the arts and crafts lessons at schools should be free expression. He said the important thing is not the result, but the process, as no matter what the outcome. Process sense of freedom that means working haphazardly in craft art lessons and so forth.
In most communities there is a relationship between human beings and the dignity of manual labor. The more manual labor that the lower the human dignity. The less manual labor or no manual labor, the higher dignity. Work intellectual or mental work, such as learning the science, theory, philosophy, a lot of interested persons because of the higher dignity.
However, the physical work because dignity is only slightly lower. Physical work was not only considered to be low, but also an ordinary working people. It's working poor people, while working people are not so had to distance himself from the manual, from the physical.
This situation is similar to Greek and Roman times first. In ancient Greece is all that is physical manual labor is not considered respectable.
Low value
Ironically, the world of education in the republic also "hostile" market-oriented programs. A number of design experts have complained about the behavior on his campus that are not market friendly. They feel depressed because if you create a market-oriented design is considered low. Nice and appreciated if the design is made of classical or scientific nature.
This situation differs from abroad. In developed countries almost all students work. That does not work only Indonesian student who happened to be a scholarship from the government. In fact, they can calm working in libraries such as drawing books that do not physically want to Indonesian students.
"In the U.S., students usually talked S3, at last summer he would work as a contractor building a bridge. They did not know that we consider it low. In my heart, how American students willing doctoral level job like that, "panelists revealed their experiences. Likewise Korean students on holidays, there are working as a gardener, who is generally disliked by the Indonesian students.
This nation is considered working it has a low value. This means that the work load, work is a compulsion, the work was a torture. Indonesian human life in general, happy dream, good living, without work. Then who produce food and so forth? As in ancient Greece, so low people, the commoners were. It is they who asked to work, produce rice, for example.
The highest values were happy life. Happy life means a lot of money. How to create more wealth without work, yes that corruption ....
