Republic of Slogan

Did you find any confusion from the picture below? Yes, you're right. Where is the hell pedestrian line? I took this picture on July 14th, 2008, in front of Halimun, a busway's shelter.

Indonesia has too many slogans now. 'Hidup adalah Perbuatan', and what have Sutrisno Bachir done?. 'New generation, new sanguine', this belongs to Rizal Mallarangeng. What do you expect that Rizal will find a way? I don't know. And then Prabowo Subiyano, and whoever else will give other slogans. Just slogan.

On the other hand, SBY is busy with the fray (and this link) about the data of poverty against Wiranto and Megawati.

How much money do they spend? It doesn't matter, the money will back after the power is held. They think like that. It's dreadful.

Democracy is still a party, no, a revelry, oh no, orgy. Indonesia, where are you going to go?

Epilog of Euro 2008

Euro 2008 was over in the last Sunday and Spain is the best among the the best. I take a series of notes from group qualification (group A & B, group C & D), quarter final, semi final and final, and the dream team containing magnificent players across country. I put them in my another blog.

My favorite team even after, Netherlands was superior only in the group qualification stage but they were down by a Dutch coach, Guus Hidink.

Spirit, togetherness, determination, and patient are in Spain team. The eldest guy in this tournament, Luis Aragones prove that experience and maturity are important.

Finally, I am just dreaming that the members of the dream team I choose were willing to be Indonesian citizens, and Indonesia would have been the next champion in the world.

Zzzzzzzzz......

Monkey's Comedy

Monkey's Comedy (in Indonesia is Topeng Monyet or Komedi Monyet) is an Indonesian traditional cabaret. Where do they perform? In the street. Yes, they are street performers. The following questions are too sorrow to answer. How is their life? How much money do the get everyday? etc, etc.Are they presentable to perform in front of Indonesian President with his guesses? If they performed for Japanese Tea Banquet, it would have been a notice to the world that this one is Indonesian culture. We don't need to be worry that Malaysia will take a copyright for this. And yes, they are presentable.

Look at the picture below. This one is a perform in Chinese Tea Banquet. In the front row of the table is usually the important person. Almost of all guesses of the China Administor have been there. What did they see? A series of Chinese traditional cabarets. One of them is hand shadow, a simple hoop.And I dream that someday Monkey's Comedy performs at President's palatial. At that time, SBY receive and entertain Barack Obama as USA president.
