"Celebrating" Hari Pendidikan Nasional

Jakarta. May 2nd 2007. the 49th Indonesian National Education Day. I really wish we could say things like "Selamat Hari Pendidikan Nasional!". but we just cant. education in Indonesia is not getting better thru the years. or at least most children are not getting smarter. and what is worst is the fact that millions of children still don't get the opportunity to get a proper education. and people like me. academic kid slash grown up who's working to pay the bills must have had something to say about this. like making a difference. better opportunity for children. and things alike. before we realize that these are not something to be said for these are something to be done. and believe me. it doesnt take an idealist nor a cynic to ever think about that.
