Indonesian Terrorism Today

(Based on The Jakarta Post article) (http://www.thejakartapost.com/news/2012/10/27/densus-88-arrests-11-terrorists-four-provinces.html)

Terrorism, one of national hot issue in Indonesia. In the world, terrorism is very close to the radical moslems movement. Including, bomb making, suicide bombing, etc. In Indonesia this issue reached its peak position in 2002 (Bom Bali 1) and 2005 (Bom Bali 2). Hundreds people sentenced death by Jama’ah Islamiyah’s bombs placed in separate places in Bali. Then the issues resolved after arrestment of Dr. Azhari in 2005.

But today, these terrorism syndicates still existed in this countries. Densus 88 arrested eleven terrorist in four separate Province in Java island. the raids conducted in Jakarta; Bogor, West Java; Madiun, East Java; and Surakarta (Solo), Central Java. Those terrorist are member of Harakah Sunni for Indonesian (Hasmi) group. The police were still investigating whether the Hasmi group was linked to existing terrorist groups

In my opinion, it’s a pity that there are still existed people who fall to false radical Islam doctrines, the doctrines that made them so hostile to the others. Moreover, they are willing to sacrifice themselves for executing suicide bombing, on the contrary of the peace of humanity taught by Islam’s ways of life. Furthermore, once the person attached to the doctrine, it nearly impossible to clear their mind from those doctrines.

In conclusion, we couldn’t annihilate the terrorism network in this world. What we are going to do are spreading peace to people and give the youth the “whole” Islamic ways, not the “pieces” of it which could make a very contrary perception of Islam understanding. The the terrorism will fade slowly as the people's mind are embodied with the humanity peace doctrines.

Many Different Types of Music Are Favored by Record Buyes

Since thousands year ago, music is the part of people’s life. With its power, music could empower people or in other hand make the people feel sad by hearing the music. Whether it could make us sad or happy, it based on the composer’s mood when they create the music or the types (genres) of music it have. A rock music in example, it still let our heart beating when we hear it, even the sad one. There are many types of music, but only the few of them sounds popular in people’s ears.

Nowadays, people, especially girls, are very interested on R n’ B music and K-Pop music. There are many of those artist which extremely popular now. For example “Justin Bieber” who have a video in youtube.com which is the most viewed one in that site (currently 790 million views). So, these kind of music are the most favored by record buyers.

In second place, “Pop Music” is one of the most favorable music by record buyers. Pop music now is the most favorable music in Indonesia, which it means that record buyers in Indonesia prefer this kind of music. In music term pop music created for the youth. Softer than rock, pop music usually bring up simple music and bring up romance topic in it.

And in other hand, there is “Rock music”, which is already popular since introduced at 1940 (currently rock n’ roll). Usually this music brings up many “hard beats” in its compositions, and covered with distortion electrical guitar sounds. This kind of music is also usually themed by romantic love, but there are some of them are contained social and politic critiques.

From the writer’s view point, those are types of popular music which are favored by record buyers, due to its popularity and “market value” on those music. Those types are currently the most which hold upper music chart position in countries.
