Carrefour Must Know This

According Kompas in "Pelanduk Berjuang Melawan Gajah", traditional market people have loosing their rights in the courthouse in a trial against P.D. Pasar Jaya, the contractor, and them. At first, the sellers protesting against the new kiosk price which is not so good. According to the seller, the real value of the new kiosk only Rp 3.10 million while they sell it at the cost of Rp16 -Rp60 million. Now, the worst part is, according to the story, Carrefour will also inhabited the place within the same building. So, this would make the seller collapse, because they sell the same thing.

What concern me is that they are the victims of heavy fire back in the August 2005. They are trying to build their precious living back again. How could they fight against a multinational company with great IT system and vast infrastructure?

It is a hard living. They must face the "unofficial" fee and gangsters that often ask retributions from them. And now, if this is true, they must fight against big company. In this battle ground where their resource is limited they would likely fighting a loosing fight.

Btw, the place were named "Pasar Melawai" now would be "Blok M Square".

I wish that Carrefour know this matter and consider their investment for the sake of humanity.

STAN vs. UI

Ugh, kasihan banget adek gue. Saking kepinteran dia jadi dapet Akuntansi UI dan STAN. Jadi bingung mau masuk yang mana. Beberapa orang (termasuk orang tua gue), menyarankan masuk STAN. Gue malah memperburuk suasana dengan membela memasuki Akuntansi UI, maklum bela almamater. Duh, gue jadi merasa bersalah bikin dia ragu-ragu. Kira-kira enakan masuk mana, yah? Gue juga gak tahu keuntungan masing-masing. Hasil debat sementara: ~ Untuk jangka panjang masuk UI, untuk jangka pendek STAN. ~~Tapi, dia itu kan cewek, ntar pas menikah kemungkinan besar karir terhambat. Eits, ntar, dulu, sekarang kan jamannya emansipasi, bisa aja cowoknya yang jadi BRT. ~ STAN sarang korupsi, kalo masuk STAN jadi pegawai negeri. Kalo mau kaya harus korupsi. Tapi kalo masuk UI, lulus masuk jadi akuntan publik. Sekarang ini, orang membayar akuntan publik untuk memanipulasi nilai pajak dan aset. *SIGH*. Jadi gak ada yang beres ~ dll. Yah, udah gue jadi bingung, apa lagi dia nanya saran gue. Buah, gue gak pengalaman ...

I Hate Marvel Civil War Storyline In Comic

See this snippets from The Amazing Spiderman: [1] http://scans-daily.dreamwidth.org/4625006.html The snippets on [1] made it clear: Stan Lee made Spidey have a strong believe in Privacy. The comic strips show how Spidey even have to face charges because of his anonymity. The accuser even made many accusation to other entities for political attacks. A fan-art/art I've found in the 90's illustrated Spiderman standing in front of Peter Parker tomb. I don't know if that was originally from comic book or fan-made, 90's are a long time ago. That art mesmerized me and introduced me to the importance of privacy. In late nineties, I was joined to a program hold by an NGO. So, at that time I know how crucial a privacy was (and still is) to humanity. I'm not exaggerating! Humanity would fall to big financial organizations if people could not voice their fears in anonymity. Whistleblowers around the world would not dare to come up. We would not see any suppression ge...
