                        SUKU ASMAT

Suku Asmat adalah sebuah suku di Papua. Suku Asmat dikenal dengan hasil ukiran kayunya yang unik. Secara umum, kondisi fisik anggota masyarakat Suku Asmat, berperawakan tegap, hidung mancung dengan warna kulit dan rambut hitam serta kelopak matanya bulat. Disamping itu, Suku Asmat termasuk ke dalam suku Polonesia, yang juga terdapat di New Zealand dan Papua Nugini. Populasi suku Asmat terbagi dua yaitu:
Mereka yang tinggal di pesisir pantai dan mereka yang tinggal di bagian pedalaman. Kedua populasi ini saling berbeda satu sama lain dalam hal dialek, cara hidup, struktur sosial dan ritual. Populasi pesisir pantai selanjutnya terbagi ke dalam dua bagian yaitu suku Bisman yang berada di antara sungai Sinesty dan sungai Nin serta suku Simai.
“Ada banyak pertentangan diantara desa berbeda Asmat “
Yang paling mengerikan adalah cara yang dipakai Suku Asmat untuk membunuh musuhnya. Ketika musuh dibunuh, mayatnya dibawa ke kampung, kemudian dipotong dan dibagikan kepada seluruh penduduk untuk dimakan bersama. Mereka menyanyikan lagu kematian dan memenggalkan kepalanya. Otaknya dibungkus daun sago yang dipanggang dan dimakan.
Sekarang biasanya, kira-kira 100 sampai 1000 orang hidup di satu kampung. Setiap kampung punya satu rumah Bujang dan banyak rumah keluarga. Rumah Bujang dipakai untuk upacara adat dan upacara keagamaan. Rumah keluarga dihuni oleh dua sampai tiga keluarga, yang mempunyai kamar mandi dan dapur sendiri. Saat ini, ada kira-kira 70.000 orang Asmat hidup di Indonesia. Mayoritas anak-anak Asmat sedang bersekolah.




Dalam hidup bersosial Suku Asmat memiliki 2 jabatan kepemimpinan.:
  1. Yang berasal dari unsur pemerintah,
  2. Yang berasal dari masyarakat itu sendiri yaitu kepala adat/ kepala suku
Untuk tipe kepemimpinan yang ke dua inilah yang sangat berpengaruh dalam kehidupan suku Asmat. Karena dalam melakukan segala kegiatan akan selalu di dahului dengan upacara adat. Jadi untuk setiap kegiatan resmi yang melibatkan pemerintah, kerjasama antara pemerintah dan kepala suku sangatlah penting.

Bila seorang kepala suku telah meninggal dunia, jabatan kepala suku tidak secara otomatis jatuh kepada penerusnya, melainkan di pilih dari orang yang berasal dari fain, atau marga tertua di lingkungan tersebut, atau di pilih dari seorang pahlawan yang telah memenangkan pertempuran.

Suku Asmat adalah suku yang menganut Animisme, sampai dengan masuknya para Misionaris pembawa ajaran baru, maka mereka mulai mengenal agama lain selain agam nenek-moyang.  Dan kini, masyarakat suku ini telah menganut berbagai macam agama, seperti Protestan, Khatolik bahkan Islam.
Seperti masyarakat pada umumnya, dalam menjalankan proses kehidupannya, masyarakat Suku Asmat pun, melalui berbagai proses, yaitu :
1. Kehamilan, selama proses ini berlangsung, bakal generasi penerus dijaga dengan baik agar dapat lahir dengan selamat dengan bantuan ibu kandung atau ibu mertua.
2. Kelahiran, tak lama setelah si jabang bayi lahir dilaksanakan upacara selamatan secara sederhana dengan acara pemotongan tali pusar yang menggunakan Sembilu, alat yang terbuat dari bambu yang dilanjarkan. Selanjutnya, diberi ASI sampai berusia 2 tahun atau 3 tahun.
3. Pernikahan, proses ini berlaku bagi seorang baik pria maupun wanita yang telah berusia 17 tahun dan dilakukan oleh pihak orang tua lelaki setelah kedua belah pihak mencapai kesepakatan dan melalui uji keberanian untuk membeli wanita dengan mas kawinnya piring antik yang berdasarkan pada nilai uang kesepakatan kapal perahu Johnson, bila ternyata ada kekurangan dalam penafsiran harga perahu Johnson, maka pihak pria wajib melunasinya dan selama masa pelunasan pihak pria dilarang melakukan tindakan aniaya walaupun sudah diperbolehkan tinggal dalam satu atap. Dalam memenuhi kebutuhan biologisnya, baik kaum pria maupun wanita melakukannya di ladang atau kebun, disaat prianya pulang dari berburu dan wanitanya sedang berkerja di ladang. Selanjutnya, ada peristiwa yang unik lainnya dimana anak babi disusui oleh wanita suku ini hingga berumur 5 tahun.
4. Kematian, bila kepala suku atau kepala adat yang meninggal, maka jasadnya disimpan dalam bentuk mumi dan dipajang di depan joglo suku ini, tetapi bila masyarakat umum, jasadnya dikuburkan. Proses ini dijalankan dengan iringan nyanyian berbahasa Asmat dan pemotongan ruas jari tangan dari anggota keluarga yang ditinggalkan.



 Mata pencarian
Kebiasaan hidup antara suku yang satu dengan suku yang lainnya di wilayah Distrik Citak dan Mitak hampir sama. mempunyai kebiasaan mencari makan adalah berburu binatang hutan separti, ular, kasuari,burung, babi hitan, komodo dll. mereka juga selalu meramuh / menokok sagu sebagai makan pokok dan nelayan yakni mencari ikan dan udang untuk dimakan. bercocok tanam di ladang, dengan jenis tanamannya wortel, matoa, jeruk, jagung, ubi jalar dan keladi. Demikian menariknya adat istiadat suku asmat, sehingga perlu dilestarikan. Disamping itu juga, dapat digunakan sebagai obyek pariwisata untuk mendapatkan devisa bagi Negara.


Rumah Suku Asmat
Suku Asmat adalah suku yang memegang kuat filosofi hidup dan nilai-nilai kesopanan. Hal itu juga termasuk dalam cara mereka membangun rumah adat Suku Asmat tanpa adanya campur tangan jasa arsitek di dalamnya.
‘’Jew’’
Rumah adat Suku Asmat yang dikenal dengan nama Jew, adalah rumah yang khusus diperuntukkan bagi pelaksanaan segala kegiatan yang sifatnya tradisi. Untuk rapat adat, melakukan pekerjaan membuat noken (tas tradisional Suku Asmat), mengukir kayu, dan juga tempat tinggal para bujang. Oleh karena itu, rumah Jew juga disebut sebagai Rumah Bujang.Rumah ini unik karena dibangun sangat panjang, bahkan hingga mencapai 50 meter. Karena masyarakat Asmat kuno belum mengenal paku, maka pembuatan rumah Jew tidak menggunakan paku.








‘’Rumah Tysem’’
Ada satu lagi rumah adat Suku Asmat yaitu, Tysem. Rumah ini disebut sebagai rumah keluarga, karena yang menghuni adalah mereka yang telah berkeluarga. Biasanya, ada 2 sampai 3 pasang keluarga yang mendiami Tysem.Ukurannya lebih kecil dari pada rumah Jew. Letak rumah Tysem biasanya disekeliling rumah Jew. Sebuah rumah Jew dapat dikelilingi oleh sekitar 15 sampai 20 rumah Tysem.
Bahan membangun rumah Tysem sama dengan bahan pembuat rumah Jew. Semua dari bahan alami hutan sekitar lokasi Suku Asmat berada.

Banyak orang beranggapan, kebudayaan suku Asmat dapat dipelajari melalui seni ukir yang dihasilkan oleh masyarakatnya. Ukiran Asmat sangat beragam, kadang berbentuk manusia, perahu, panel, ataupun perisai. Pola ukirannya-pun berdasarkan keseharian hidup suku Asmat itu sendiri. Salah satunya, motif orang berburu. Sebagai wujud penghormatan mereka terhadap nenek moyang atau leluhurnya, secara turun temurun, pola seni ukir yang dibuat oleh suku Asmat selalu dikaitkan pada kepercayaan mereka terhadap leluhur.
Tahapan membuat kerajinan ukir diawali dengan memahat sepotong kayu untuk dijadikan sebuah pola. Karena setiap ukiran mempunyai makna tersendiri. Sebagai contoh, ada 3 macam warna, merah, hitam, dan putih yang selalu digunakan oleh suku Asmat pada beberapa hasil ukirannya. Merah melambangkan daging, Putih menggambarkan tulang. Sementara hitam melambangkan warna kulit suku Asmat itu sendiri. Dengan alat pahat tradisional yang terbuat dari jambu batu dan batu kali. Suku Asmat membuat kerajinan ukiran dari jenis kayu, seperti kayu sago, kayu jati, ataupun kayu susu. Sehingga tidaklah mengherankan, jika berbagai sumber media online menuliskan, seni ukir Asmat ini banyak diminati oleh wisatawan domestik dan mancanegara.

Kepercayaan Terhadap Roh Leluhur
seperti berbagai suku tradisional di seluruh dunia. Maka, kepercayaan terhadap hal gaib berupa roh leluhur yang menjaga mereka masih ada.Kepercayaan mereka itu dituangkan dalam keahlian membuat ukiran kayu tanpa sketsa. Mereka percaya, roh leluhur akan membimbing mereka untuk menyelesaikan patung ukiran yang mereka buat. Nama patung ukiran yang menceritakan tentang arwah para leluhur mereka disebut Mbis.Mbis banyak dijumpai di rumah Jew. Dipercaya roh leluhur akan turut menjaga rumah yang mereka bangun dengan adanya Mbis didalamnya.

JAKARTA, KOMPAS.com - Indonesia could be hit by the economic crisis
ever experienced sedahsyat this country in 1997, due to the debt
crisis in Europe and the United States.
The number of inflows of hot money circulating alias in Indonesia five
times higher than in 1997. Tightening of liquidity in European
countries, as a drug debt crisis some EU member states, could make hot
money in Indonesia pulled out.
Continues to experience a slowdown in exports due to the crisis in
Europe and the United States also will push the exchange rate. In
turn, the debt crisis in Europe will impact on the economy of
Indonesia.
Former Minister of Economy, Rizal Ramli, in Jakarta, Tuesday
(11/15/2011), in predicting the crisis hit Indonesia in the European
debt crisis will be felt in the first quarter of 2012.
Rizal said the government's official explanation that Indonesia would
not be affected by the crisis must be addressed carefully. The problem
is, the crisis in 1997 also due to various signals melenakan
government crisis.
"The official explanation of government, Indonesia will be subject to
baseball crisis Indonesia economy and strong economic fundamentals,"
he said. "Statements like this are the same as in 1997-1998 revealed
that Indonesia's economic fundamentals strong, large foreign exchange
reserves. I think we should be careful because of the huge foreign
exchange reserves are not wholly owned by the government."
Rizal said Indonesia's foreign exchange reserves of 110 billion
dollars, the government had at most only a quarter. The rest is owned
by the private sector.
"We're embracing the superbebas foreign exchange system. If anything,
this is definitely a phone bank private sector so that the money sent
abroad. Well now, the amount of hot money hot money or five times that
of 1998," said Rizal.
Unfortunately, according to Rizal, the government is not able to
reform the bureaucracy so that no change in bureaucratic culture.
"Bureaucracy is still an obstacle. Whose name is not hot money had
turned into a cold money, money is cool. Ideally, the hot money was
cold so the money is converted into the real sector investment," he
said.
Rizal pointed out, the signal is actually the crisis had begun. "Slow
down Indonesia's exports have started to slow down, and it also
happens in other countries. China alone is great because it has begun
to slow down the two economic giants, Europe and the U.S., a
slowdown," he said.
Debt crisis in Europe, according to Rizal, can be seen from two
things. Its effects through two mechanisms. "One, export mechanism.
Indonesia's exports began to slow in 2012. Unfortunately our imports
continued to rise higher. Consequently, the surplus in balance of
payments and transactions run faster and smaller. That will put
pressure on the rupiah," said Rizal.
Second, he argues, through the financial mechanism. "Since the crisis,
Europe is tightening liquidity and monetary sectors. That way, they
would not want to attract investments in their portfolio in
Indonesia," he said.

INFLATION INDONESIA

The monetary crisis that hit ASEAN countries, including
Indonesia, have caused damage to the joints of the economy
nationwide. Financial crisis resulted in imported inflation
as a result of sharply terdepresiasinya exchange rate
against foreign currencies, which in turn lead to pressure
severe inflation for Indonesia.

The phenomenon of inflation in Indonesia was not solely
is a short term phenomenon and that there are
situational, but just as common in countries
other emerging, the problem of inflation in Indonesia more
on long-term inflation problem because it is still the presence of
structural constraints in the economy of the country. With
Thus, the improvement of Indonesia's inflation problem is not enough
performed using only monetary instruments,
are generally short term, but also by doing
improvements in the real sector, the main target is to eliminate
structural barriers that exist in the economy nasional.Seperti was the
case in developing countries in general,
the phenomenon of inflation in Indonesia is still one of the various
"diseases" of the economy
macro that governments especially troubling for the community. Indeed, before
end of the New Order regime (before the financial crisis) the annual
inflation rate can be reduced to a single digit, but in general still contains
vulnerability if it is seen how large percentage of community groups
the poor who suffer due to inflation. Much more after the
the continuing financial crisis followed by economic crisis, which
become one of the causes of the fall of the New Order government, the
inflation rate,tends to increase rapidly (reaching more than 75% in 1998), and
compounded by the growing percentage of the poor segments of society.
That is to say, that although the inflation rate in Indonesia
termasukdalam high category, but by reviewing the percentage of
community groups,the economy suffering from inflation big enough, it can actually
said that inflation in Indonesia has entered the early stages of hyperinflation.
As in the case which is common in countries - developing countries,
inflation in Indonesia is relatively more often caused by things that are
structural economic when compared with things that are monetary
policies. That is to say, that the influence of cosh push inflation over
greater than demand pull inflation.
Indeed, in a certain period of years, for example at the time of the oil
booming, inflationary pressure in Indonesia due to the increased amount of money
outstanding. But it can not ignore the influence of the
economy are structural, for the period, is still a gap
between aggregate supply with aggregate demand, for example in the sub sector
agriculture, which can increase the degree of inflation.
In general, the Indonesian government more use of approach
denominated in an effort to control the general price level.
Government of Indonesia
prefer to use monetary instruments as a means to curb inflation,
for example, by open market mechanism or the reserve requirement. But need

remember, that the monetary approach is more widely used to tackle inflation

in the short term, and very well implemented impositions countries that have

advanced economies, rather than in developing countries that still have

structural bottleneck. So, if the monetary approach is used as a tool

primary in controlling inflation in developing countries, it will not be able to

Indonesia's economic growth in 2012


The World Bank estimates that Indonesia's economic growth in 2012
amounted to only 6.3 percent, lower than the projection for 2011 of
6.4 percent.


"One of the factors influencing this growth is slowing global economic
slump," said World Bank economist Representatives of Indonesia,
Shubham Chaudhuri, the Institute for Public Policy Paramadina Tuesday.


According to him, Indonesia's financial markets are not immune to
external shocks. But Indonesia continued to show strong economic
performance in the midst of many countries around the world are
experiencing a sharp decline in the fiscal position and balance sheet
of the private sector since 2008.


Shubham further said Indonesia's macroeconomic fundamentals are solid
major defense in the face of ongoing market turmoil.


According to him, it is important for Indonesia to take steps to
improve the resilience of the global financial market turbulence,
including the avoidance of uncertainty in the policy.


The World Bank has lowered its 2012 economic growth rate of 6.7
percent to 6.3 percent in June 2011 due to weaker economic growth in
the countries main trading partner and commodity prices.


However, according to Shubham, this figure still puts Indonesia's
economy in a strong position.


"Currently, the World Bank scenario, the calculation is not necessary
emergency," said Shubham.


However, according to him, as a preparation to face the crisis
scenario there are some important things you can do, among others,
review the crisis management protocols, especially in the financial
sector, considering the financing of the budget for the unexpected,
and prepare emergency plans in the form of fiscal stimulus.


In the pessimistic scenario, including if the international financial

economic growth of Indonesia in 2012 will drop to just 5.5 percent.


While in the extreme scenario where the crisis led to significantly
lower global growth and India and China are also facing large growth,
then Indonesia's economic growth will decline sharply in 2012 but
still above the four percent.

JAKARTA, KOMPAS.com - Indonesia could be hit by the economic crisis
ever experienced sedahsyat this country in 1997, due to the debt
crisis in Europe and the United States.

The number of inflows of hot money circulating alias in Indonesia five
times higher than in 1997. Tightening of liquidity in European
countries, as a drug debt crisis some EU member states, could make hot
money in Indonesia pulled out.

Continues to experience a slowdown in exports due to the crisis in
Europe and the United States also will push the exchange rate. In
turn, the debt crisis in Europe will impact on the economy of
Indonesia.

Former Minister of Economy, Rizal Ramli, in Jakarta, Tuesday
(11/15/2011), in predicting the crisis hit Indonesia in the European
debt crisis will be felt in the first quarter of 2012.

Rizal said the government's official explanation that Indonesia would
not be affected by the crisis must be addressed carefully. The problem
is, the crisis in 1997 also due to various signals melenakan
government crisis.

"The official explanation of government, Indonesia will be subject to
baseball crisis Indonesia economy and strong economic fundamentals,"
he said. "Statements like this are the same as in 1997-1998 revealed
that Indonesia's economic fundamentals strong, large foreign exchange
reserves. I think we should be careful because of the huge foreign
exchange reserves are not wholly owned by the government."

Rizal said Indonesia's foreign exchange reserves of 110 billion
dollars, the government had at most only a quarter. The rest is owned
by the private sector.

"We're embracing the superbebas foreign exchange system. If anything,
this is definitely a phone bank private sector so that the money sent
abroad. Well now, the amount of hot money hot money or five times that
of 1998," said Rizal.

Unfortunately, according to Rizal, the government is not able to
reform the bureaucracy so that no change in bureaucratic culture.

"Bureaucracy is still an obstacle. Whose name is not hot money had
turned into a cold money, money is cool. Ideally, the hot money was
cold so the money is converted into the real sector investment," he
said.

Rizal pointed out, the signal is actually the crisis had begun. "Slow
down Indonesia's exports have started to slow down, and it also
happens in other countries. China alone is great because it has begun
to slow down the two economic giants, Europe and the U.S., a
slowdown," he said.

Debt crisis in Europe, according to Rizal, can be seen from two
things. Its effects through two mechanisms. "One, export mechanism.
Indonesia's exports began to slow in 2012. Unfortunately our imports
continued to rise higher. Consequently, the surplus in balance of
payments and transactions run faster and smaller. That will put
pressure on the rupiah," said Rizal.

Second, he argues, through the financial mechanism. "Since the crisis,
Europe is tightening liquidity and monetary sectors. That way, they
would not want to attract investments in their portfolio in
Indonesia," he said.

percent. The rest, amounting to 13.9 percent did not answer.

Of the party, 54.2 percent of respondents would blame the Democrats if
the price of subsidized fuel to be raised. Party coalition blamed only
11.5 percent of respondents. The rest, 34.1 percent of respondents did
not answer.


Raising the price of subsidized fuel to Rp6.000 per liter will
commence from 1 April. The Government has prepared a compensation for
raising the price of subsidized fuel a BLT at Rp25, 6 trillion. Based
on the financial memorandum that the government presented to
Parliament, BLT disbursed Rp150 thousand per month for a single target
households for nine months.


Minded beggar


LSI is based on survey results, Yudhoyono and the Democratic Party is

liter, there is a saving of around Rp38 trillion. Fund savings of
that, he said, could be used untukprogram-productive and
labor-intensive program. BLT provision, according to Sri, did not make
a smart and productive society.

INFLATION INDONESIA

The monetary crisis that hit ASEAN countries, including

Indonesia, have caused damage to the joints of the economy

nationwide. Financial crisis resulted in imported inflation

as a result of sharply terdepresiasinya exchange rate

severe inflation for Indonesia.

The phenomenon of inflation in Indonesia was not solely

is a short term phenomenon and that there are

situational, but just as common in countries

other emerging, the problem of inflation in Indonesia more

on long-term inflation problem because it is still the presence of

structural constraints in the economy of the country. With

Thus, the improvement of Indonesia's inflation problem is not enough

performed using only monetary instruments,

are generally short term, but also by doing

improvements in the real sector, the main target is to eliminate

structural barriers that exist in the economy nasional.Seperti was the
case in developing countries in general,

the phenomenon of inflation in Indonesia is still one of the various
"diseases" of the economy

macro that governments especially troubling for the community. Indeed, before

end of the New Order regime (before the financial crisis) the annual
inflation rate

can be reduced to a single digit, but in general still contains

vulnerability if it is seen how large percentage of community groups

the poor who suffer due to inflation. Much more after the

the continuing financial crisis followed by economic crisis, which

become one of the causes of the fall of the New Order government, the
inflation rate

tends to increase rapidly (reaching more than 75% in 1998), and

compounded by the growing percentage of the poor segments of society.

That is to say, that although the inflation rate in Indonesia
termasukdalam high category, but by reviewing the percentage of
community groups

the economy suffering from inflation big enough, it can actually

said that inflation in Indonesia has entered the early stages of

hyperinflation.

As in the case which is common in countries - developing countries,

inflation in Indonesia is relatively more often caused by things that are

structural economic when compared with things that are monetary

policies. That is to say, that the influence of cosh push inflation over

greater than demand pull inflation.

Indeed, in a certain period of years, for example at the time of the oil

booming, inflationary pressure in Indonesia due to the increased amount of money

outstanding. But it can not ignore the influence of the

economy are structural, for the period, is still a gap

between aggregate supply with aggregate demand, for example in the sub sector

agriculture, which can increase the degree of inflation.

In general, the Indonesian government more use of approach

denominated in an effort to control the general price level.
Government of Indonesia

prefer to use monetary instruments as a means to curb inflation,

for example, by open market mechanism or the reserve requirement. But need

remember, that the monetary approach is more widely used to tackle inflation

in the short term, and very well implemented impositions countries that have

advanced economies, rather than in developing countries that still have

structural bottleneck. So, if the monetary approach is used as a tool

primary in controlling inflation in developing countries, it will not be able to

Indonesia's economic growth in 2012


The World Bank estimates that Indonesia's economic growth in 2012
amounted to only 6.3 percent, lower than the projection for 2011 of
6.4 percent.


"One of the factors influencing this growth is slowing global economic
slump," said World Bank economist Representatives of Indonesia,
Shubham Chaudhuri, the Institute for Public Policy Paramadina Tuesday.


According to him, Indonesia's financial markets are not immune to
external shocks. But Indonesia continued to show strong economic
performance in the midst of many countries around the world are
experiencing a sharp decline in the fiscal position and balance sheet
of the private sector since 2008.


Shubham further said Indonesia's macroeconomic fundamentals are solid
major defense in the face of ongoing market turmoil.


According to him, it is important for Indonesia to take steps to
improve the resilience of the global financial market turbulence,
including the avoidance of uncertainty in the policy.


The World Bank has lowered its 2012 economic growth rate of 6.7
percent to 6.3 percent in June 2011 due to weaker economic growth in
the countries main trading partner and commodity prices.


However, according to Shubham, this figure still puts Indonesia's
economy in a strong position.


"Currently, the World Bank scenario, the calculation is not necessary
emergency," said Shubham.


However, according to him, as a preparation to face the crisis
scenario there are some important things you can do, among others,
review the crisis management protocols, especially in the financial
sector, considering the financing of the budget for the unexpected,
and prepare emergency plans in the form of fiscal stimulus.


In the pessimistic scenario, including if the international financial
crisis and weakening external demand, the World Bank projected the
economic growth of Indonesia in 2012 will drop to just 5.5 percent.


While in the extreme scenario where the crisis led to significantly
lower global growth and India and China are also facing large growth,
then Indonesia's economic growth will decline sharply in 2012 but
still above the four percent.

TEXT VII
Why the Poor Reduce HARD?

The challenge to alleviate poverty seems increasingly heavy.
Indication of the rate of decline in the number of poor is
increasingly slowed. It seems that the government should work harder
and harder.

Based on data didiseminasi Central Statistics Agency (BPS) in early
January (2/1), in September 2011, the number of poor people reached
29.89 million or 12.36 percent of the total population of Indonesia, a
decrease of 130 thousand people sebeser or 0 , 13 per cent when
compared to conditions in March 2011. Number of poor people when it
reached 30.02 million or 12.49 percent of the total population of
Indonesia.

Not much different from the poor

Reasonably suspected, 130 thousand people who changed the status of
the poor is actually just turned into near-poor population (near
poor). Indicated by the increase of poor population that has now
almost broke the 27.82 million people or about 11.5 percent of the
total population of Indonesia (BPS, 2012).

When compared to the conditions in March 2011: the number of near-poor
population reached 27.12 million (10.28 percent), that means, have
occurred in the number of near-poor population of 700 thousand people
during the period March 2011-September 2011. And, it's easy to be
expected, one source added it was 130 thousand poor people who rose to
nearly poor status, in addition to about 570 thousand people are not
poor who fell into near-poor status, of course.

Suspected, the survivors of the expenditure categories of the poor is
only shifted slightly above the poverty line or boundary. This
condition causes a degree of prosperity they are not much different
from poor people, maybe even the same. Therefore, regardless of the
concepts used in BPS to determine who 'the poor' (poor), it is not
wrong if we say they actually are still poor. More than that,
actually, they are still very vulnerable to falling into poverty again
in case of economic turmoil.

Chronic Poverty

Decreased by 130 thousand people for a semester course is relatively
small and far from satisfactory. In fact, the budget has been
disbursed to finance all sorts of government poverty alleviation
programs, which are now more layered, not least, a barrage, reaching
80 trillion in 2011 and then (Reuters, 01/19/2012). This appears to
confirm the skepticism of some people, the government's target to
reduce poverty to below 10 percent of the more difficult and hard to
achieve.

Easy to be expected, more than the rate of decline in the number of
poor due to the condition that there is chronic poverty (chronic
poverty). Identified, those, who have not terentaskan of poverty, is
the chronic poor, the poor are no longer temporary.

In contrast to the poverty temporary (transient poverty) are more of a
resultant of temporary causes, such as the economic crisis, government
policies are not populist, and natural disasters, chronic poverty is
persistent, it is present even though the crisis did not happen,
populist government policies, and / or no natural disasters.

The main feature of chronic poverty is the degree of capability-level
education and health, they are very low. Unfortunately, the low degree
of kapabillitas is also exacerbated by pessimism over conditions of
deprivation experienced. They are caught in chronic poverty generally
do not believe that their fate will be changed. In fact, it is not
uncommon among those who thought that poverty was not meant to be
experienced, even something to be grateful.

Therefore, various poverty alleviation programs in depth, as tunia
assistance (cash transfers), the National Program Citizens Empowerment
(PNPM) Mandiri, Family Hope Program (PKH), and the People's Business
Credit (KUR), there will be more influenced many in alleviating them
from poverty .

In the scheme of poverty alleviation programs designed government,
efforts to improve the capabilities of poor people has indeed been
done. Assistance programs of social protection, such as School
Operational Assistance (BOS), scholarships for the poor, the Community
Health Insurance (Jamkesmas), and Jamaninan Maternity (Jampersal) has
duluncurkan government to improve the quality of education and poor
health, including chronic poverty.

However, it is suspected, the effectiveness of such programs is still
low. Suspected, chronic poverty is not touched or did not have access
to assistance programs. This could be due to poor location of
residence and chronicles the far corners of the remote so it is
difficult to reach.

The key in rural areas

Easy to be expected, most of the chronic poor are in rural areas.
Indication of the number of poor, mostly located in rural areas. Data
BPS states, in September 2011, approximately 18.94 million (63.4
percent) are poor people in rural areas. Easy to be expected, most of
them are agricultural laborers and peasants: landless and tenants.

Identified, although recent growth in the agricultural sector in the
broad sense, including food crops sub-sector, plantations, livestock,
fisheries and forestry, is quite impressive, it seems this has not
followed their kesajahteraan improvements-including the poor, who work
in this sector.

Based on BPS data, throughout 2011, the agricultural sector in the
broad sense it has grown by 3 percent (year on year). However, at the
same time, real wages (purchasing power) in general teros
hodge-although declining face value continues to rise, and the
movement of Farmers Exchange (NTP), which is a proxy for the degree of
well-being of farmers, tend to stagnate.

BPS data show, in January 2012, real wages of agricultural laborers
declined by 0.41 percent compared to December 2011. Neither the NTP in
January 2012, decreased by 0.02 percent compared to December 2011.
From this it should be assumed, the growth that occurred in the
agricultural sector lame. In that sense, most of the 'cake'
growth-value added (value added)-that is created in this sector
enjoyed only a handful of people who have access to a great mastery of
production factors. While most of the others just enjoy a small part
due to limited access to the mastery of the production factors they
have. For food crops sub-sector, for example, most of the 'cake'
growth seems to be enjoyed by large farmers and landowners, not
farmers, landless, especially farm workers.

Since most of the poor-including chronic poor live in rural areas, and
depend on agriculture, there are at least three things that should be
the focus of attention of the government to get out of the trap
slowing the rate of decline in the number of poor and encourage the
acceleration of poverty reduction in the future.

First, the agricultural sector, rural development is tough, is not
only focused on efforts to boost food production alone, but also on
the development of agricultural commodities and high value
export-oriented. Accordingly, the distribution of land tenure should
also be improved, and agrarian reform is the solution.

Second, the agricultural sector, rural development, particularly those
sectors that have a connection (linkage) a strong economy with the
agricultural sector, for example, industries that can increase the
added value of agricultural commodities produced by farmers
(agribusiness). Nonagricultural-rural development will provide new
economic opportunities for poor rural population that depends not only
on the farm economy. Third, development of rural infrastructure to
improve the accessibility and capabilities of poor rural population.

By realizing the third case, terget to reduce the percentage of poor
people to below 10 percent seems to be the thing that is not too
difficult to achieve. (*)

Corruption Still Threatens Indonesia's Economic Growth

TEMPO.CO - Mon, January 17, 2012

TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - The issue of corruption is estimated to still be a
threat to economic growth in Indonesia. "The scandal of corruption in
the Democratic Party in 2011 and has a negative effect on the
investment climate in Indonesia," said President Fitch Ratings,
Phillip McNicholas.

This statement was disclosed in a presentation Phillip "Indonesia
Investment Grade: Whats Next?" at the Four Seasons Hotel, Jakarta,
Tuesday, January 17, 2012. "Corruption is still affecting the
international competitiveness of Indonesia," he added.

Previously, Fitch Ratings has raised its long-term debt rating of BB +
Indonesia to BBB-with stable outlook. "Indonesia should be able to fix
the shortcomings of climate," said Phillips. He highlighted the
problems of infrastructure, education, and low income as the main
problem, besides the most fundamental is the corruption.

Indonesia is expected to maintain a stable outlook in the first
quarter of 2012. "Then we will observe the state of Indonesia in the
face of positive and negative pressure," said Phillip.

Government policy makers must be good as the execution of the various
policies promulgated. "Management is a good policy will lead Indonesia
to increase welfare," said Phillip. The increase in debt ratings
Indonesia, he said, more driven by sound financial policies and
macro-economic situation is stable. Those two factors scored above the
state average with other BB predicate.
