XL Award 2011


Kebutuhan serta Pelayanan Telekomunikasi bagi Masyarakat Indonesia

Indonesia merupakan salah satu negara kepulauan terbesar di dunia. Masih banyaknya pulau dan daerah yang sulit dan bahkan belum dapat dijangkau oleh layanan telekomunikasi, menjadikan hal ini sebagai suatu pedoman oleh XL untuk terus-menerus melakukan perubahan serta pembaharuan di bidang pelayanan telekomunikasi. Salah satu akibat dari kurang terjangkaunya wilayah terpencil mengakibatkan muncul kesenjangan informasi antar daerah.

Perlu kita ketahui bahwa sadar atau tidak, telekomunikasi seluler serta peran operator turut menunjang kemajuan pendidikan dan perekonomian di daerah tersebut. Selain itu, ada banyak juga dampak positif yang diperlihatkan oleh fakta-fakta yang dibuat dari peran telekomunikasi seluler. Bahkan, dampak tersebut tidak jarang menghampiri kita sebagai konsumen dari telekomunikasi seluler.

XL sebagai salah satu operator telekomunikasi di Indonesia turut meluncurkan program CSR (Coorporate Social Responsibility) Indonesia Berprestasi, yakni pengadaan pemakaian komputer bagi sekolah-sekolah yang ada di Indonesia. Program ini ditujukan kepada guru-guru di seluruh Indonesia agar dapat menggunakan komputer serta Bahasa Inggris, kemudian menerapkannya kepada anak didiknya.

XL yang mulai beroperasi sejak 8 Oktober 1996, melayani masyarakat luas di bidang layanan suara (voice), pesan singkat (sms), serta akses internet yang cepat. Jaringan dari XL sendiri mencapai tahapan yang sangat baik dalam menjangkau daerah yang terpencil dan sulit dijangkau oleh sinyal operator. Kemajuan dari suatu daerah sangat ditentukan oleh seberapa cepatnya informasi itu didapatkan. Semakin lambat informasi itu didapat, semakin ketinggalan pula masyarakat di daerah tersebut.

Tahun 2011 menjadi tahun dimana operator-operator telekomunikasi bersaing untuk menjadi yang terbaik. Masing-masing operator menunjukkan kualitas serta kuantitas produknya dengan cara yang beraneka ragam pula. Masyarakat juga harus cermat dan teliti dalam menanggapi hal ini. Maraknya dan murahnya produk yang ditawarkan oleh berbagai operator menyebabkan masyarakat luas sulit menentukan pilihannya.                                              

Selain itu, peran pemerintah dalam mewujudkan akses telekomunikasi di seluruh daerah snagat mendukung hal ini. Penetapan kebijakan, peraturan, pengawasan, serta pengendalian sangat baik dilakukan oleh pemerintah menginggat banyaknya kecurangan yang dilakukan oleh "oknum-oknum" yang tidak bertanggungjawab. Hal ini tentu sangat meresahkan masyarakat luas.

Peran operator yang paling penting yakni melayani secara universal untuk memenuhi kebutuhan masyarakat agar mendapatkan akses komunikasi di seluruh daerah baik itu di daerah terpencil maupun belum berkembang dengan kualitas yang baik serta tarif yang layak bagi masyarakat Indonesia. Dengan begitu, seluruh masyarakat Indonesia dapat merasakan kemudahan komunikasi dan mendapatkan informasi secara cepat. Masyarakat juga tidak akan merasa "ketinggalan zaman".
Seiring berkembangnya informasi, penggunaan teknologi sudah semakin meluas, tidak jarang juga remaja dengan masa mudanya yang penuh gejolak melampiaskannya kepada yang namanya teknologi, sehingga mereka menggunakan teknologi dengan sesuka hatinya tanpa memikirkan apakah hal itu merusak moral mereka ataupun tidak. Dari hal ini, banyak orang tua yang menyalahkan teknologi dan malah teknologi itu yang menjadi sasaran mereka.

Padahal, sadar ataupun tidak, jika diri kita sendiri yang dapat mengatur agar tidak terjerumus ke dalam hal negatif, maka hal tersebut tidak akan pernah terjadi pada diri kita sebagai individu yang tidak pernah merasa puas terhadap kehidupan ini.
"Efisien dan Efektif" merupakan kunci yang diperlukan oleh masyarakat Indonesia dalam penggunaan teknologi komunikasi di kesehariaannya. Oleh karena itu, perlunya operator untuk terus berusaha memperbaiki dan memperbaharui dirinya sangat diharapkan oleh masyarakat Indonesia.

Dengan begitu, teknologi informasi dan komunikasi akan terus berkwmbang hingga turut mengembangkan pendidikan dan perekonomian bukan hanya di daerah perkotaan tapi juga di daerah terpencil. Selain itu, pada tahun 2012 nanti, kemungkinan besar seluruh masyarakat Indonesia akan tersentuh oleh layanan telekomunikasi ini. Sehingga tidak akan ada lagi masyarakat kita yang terbelakang akibat kurangnya informasi.

Gamelan

A gamelan is a musical ensemble from Indonesia, typically from the islands of Bali or Java, featuring a variety of instruments such as metallophones,xylophones,drums and gongs: bamboo flutes, bowed and plucked strings.

Vocalists may also be included.
The term refers more to the set of instruments than to the players of those instruments. A gamelan is a set of instruments as a distinct entity, built and tuned to stay together instruments from different gamelan are generally not interchangeable.
The word "gamelan" comes from the Javanese word "gamels", meaning to strike or hammer, and the suffix "an",which makes the root a collective noun. Real hammers are not used to play these instruments as heavy iron hammers would break the delicate instruments.

Kuta

Kuta is administratively a district (kecamatan) and subdistrict/village (kelurahan) in southern Bali, Indonesia. A former fishing village, it was one of the first towns on Bali to see substantial tourist development, and as a beach resort remains one of Indonesia's major tourist destinations. It is known internationally for its long sandy beach, varied accommodation, many restaurants and bars, and many renowned surfers who visit from Australia. It is located near Bali's Ngurah Rai Airport.

Kuta was the site of the October 12, 2002 1st Bali bombing (202 killed) and the October 1, 2005 2nd Bali bombing (26 killed).
The Balinese Provincial Government have taken the view that the preservation of the Balinese culture, natural resources and wildlife are of primary importance in the development of the island. To this end they have limited tourist development to the peninsula on the extreme southern aspect of the island; Kuta beach is on the western side of this peninsula and Sanur is on the east. To the north of the peninsula no new tourist development is supposedly permitted.
To the south, Kuta Beach extends beyond the airport into Jimbaran. Other nearby towns and villages include Seseh (6.4 nm), Denpasar (4.5 nm), Ujung (1.8 nm), Pesanggaran (2.0 nm), Kedonganan (2.9 nm) and Tuban (1.0 nm).

Borobudur

Borobudur, or Barabudur, is a 9th-century Mahayana Buddhist monument near Magelang, Central Java, Indonesia. The monument comprises six square platforms topped by three circular platforms, and is decorated with 2,672 relief panels and 504 Buddha statues. A main dome, located at the center of the top platform, is surrounded by 72 Buddha statues seated inside perforated stupa.
The monument is both a shrine to the Lord Buddha and a place for Buddhist pilgrimage. The journey for pilgrims begins at the base of the monument and follows a path circumambulating the monument while ascending to the top through the three levels of Buddhist cosmology, namely Kāmadhātu (the world of desire), Rupadhatu (the world of forms) and Arupadhatu (the world of formlessness). During the journey the monument guides the pilgrims through a system of stairways and corridors with 1,460 narrative relief panels on the wall and the balustrades.
Evidence suggests Borobudur was abandoned following the 14th-century decline of Buddhist and Hindu kingdoms in Java, and the Javanese conversion to Islam. Worldwide knowledge of its existence was sparked in 1814 by Sir Thomas Stamford Raffles, then the British ruler of Java, who was advised of its location by native Indonesians. Borobudur has since been preserved through several restorations. The largest restoration project was undertaken between 1975 and 1982 by the Indonesian government and UNESCO, following which the monument was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Borobudur is still used for pilgrimage; once a year Buddhists in Indonesia celebrate Vesak at the monument, and Borobudur is Indonesia's single most visited tourist attraction.

Friendship

Friendship is a rare diamond that shines,
Only when you give it a sunny smile.
Friendship is a door that opens,
Only when you unlock yourself to it.

Friendship is a hand that holds you,
Only when you welcome everyone else.
Friendship is a lantern which glows your way,
Only when you know you are lost.
Friendship is a language which you speak,
Only when you know the meaning of it.
Friendship is a dream, which comes true,
Only when you have a true friend.

SOMEONE SPECIAL

Love is.. Thicker than water
Stronger than any bridge, fragile as
A flower, tender as the evening shade

The wonderful times we
Share together shall always
Remain in my heart

Thanks for all the fun, I never
Would have found without you
How am I supposed to live without you

I don't like being alone without you
But it's these lonely nights that make me
Realize how much you mean to me

Thank you for bringing back the sunshine..
Into my life!

Roses are red. Violets are blue
I love someone, and that someone is..
YOU.

LOV3

The greatest happiness in this Life
is a certainty feeling of being Love
especially by someone we care
Love is like a Mistery
We couldn't know what will happen
tommorow and so on


Love can makes joy
also makes sorrow
but be happy
people who ever love or be loved
don't forget the beautiful memories that
have happened
this heart is happy
even not a perfect joy
but one thing we should keep in mind
if I know what love is
it is because of You
to make the love we have harder to vanish
to be the one that we loved

Love Is As You Grow Old

All my happiness goes out to you
Pride and pleasure, joy, sweet tears, and love !
Reason, hope, and faith together move
In harmony to bless all that you do.


Let this beginning be the golden dawn
at which all dew-drenched nature sings its glory !
Nor should the darkness shrouding every story
Dim the blue eyed beauty of this morn.
More of life will come than you can hold
A flood no mortal witness can withstand.
Rest, then, within a quiet, gentle hand,
knowing where love is as you grow old.

The Relation Between Hindu-Buddhist Traditions and Social Structure, Education, Arts and Technology.

The coming of Hinduism-Buddhism to Indonesia brought about some changes in different fields, in addition to the changes of Indonesian people's system of belief.
Social Structure of the Society
Period of Hindu Kingdoms
The change in the social structure of Indonesian people was the implementation of caste system in which the society was divided into four groups based on their position, economic status, and occupation.

The system consisted of:
1. Brahmin caste, was the highest caste in the social structure of Hindu people. The caste consisted of priests whose duties were to lead religious services or ceremonies and give advice to all levels of the society, including kings, aristocrats, merchants, and common people.
2. Kshatrya caste, was the caste whose duties were to take care of the country's security and improve the people's welfare. This caste was made up of kings and soldiers. A king was regarded as a descendant of gods, and he ruled his country under the order of gods.
3. Vaisya caste, was the caste for merchants and farmers. This group was a very important component of the society because the farmers were responsible for producing foodstuff while the merchants were responsible for marketing the products. Without this group, the people's needs for food would not be fulfilled.
4. Sudra caste, was the caste with the lowest position. This was because the people constituting this caste did not have enough wealth or belongings except physical power to support their lives. These people generally worked for the higher castes as maids or skilled labourers.
Apart from the four castes above, there was still another caste which no accepted by the society because the members were unable to adapt to the society's norms and customs, this caste was called Pariah.
This grouping of peopld was estimated to take place during the Veda period (1500-500BC). The groups of people were commonly referred to as four-colours, and the term caste was introduced by the Portuguese.
