The Jingle from some Provider and Brand of Mobile phone

 1. TELKOMSEL “Begitu Dekat Begitu Nyata” It means no matter where we are, how far it is, we can still keep in touch with our family, right ? Well, obviously the quality of the signal is excellent, we admit that. So maybe if we’re in the middle of a forest, we still can communicate with our family if it is possible. But …. 1st Telkomsel is not an inexpensive kind of provider. Usually the businessman or a worker who use this provider. We barely see a student use Telkomsel, usually most of them use another provider which is cheaper. So, not all the people use it. 2nd If the signal go worse, usually it drives me mad. Because sometimes it takes 2 or 3 days to fix the problem with the signal it self. But it’s not always anyway. The conclusion is….. The jingle and the reality is not really fit each other.

 

2. XL “XLalu Lebih Baik” It means this provider is trying to develop to be better, from the signal side and service. The calling cost and the text cost is free, but it’s only in their community and in the new card, it’s no longer provided in the old card. And sometimes, in some areas, we don’t get the signal. The other weakness is the old card user can’t enjoy the new facilities in the new card. According to us, XL develops to be better than before. So, the jingle itself fits each other.

 

3. Nokia “Connecting People” Nokia is famous brand until now,especially in Indonesia. So, the quality is proved. Nokia has many types and provides so many complete features. The user becomes easier to interact with other people. The conclusion is what is mentioned in nokia’s jingle is proved because most of people in Indonesia use Nokia.

 

4. Axis “Baik Ya….” Axis card is usually used in teenage, because of there cheap cost. Besides it fits their pocket money. But the signal is weak. It’s got the high signal in some areas, not all. And sometimes, the text message is pending and it’s quite difficult to make a call. And this is the strengths and the weakness of Axis card. The strengths are : the text cost is cheap. And if we call the same provider, it’s free. The weaknesses are : low signal, if we want to access the internet. It needs so long. So, we conclude that axis is good enough and yeah .. Axis baik yah .

 

5. Smartfren “I Hate Slow” It means that Smartfren isn’t slow or it’s fast to access the Internet. But the reality is according to the user, Smartfren is like the common provider, it’s even slow. Maybe it depends on the place as well, because it needs signal too. So, the conclusion is the jingle and the reality isn’t same. Smartfren isn’t as fast as it says.

 

6. Telkom “The Word in Your Hand” Telkom is the first provider in Indonesia and now Telkom enteres the global era with new portofolio of Telecommunication, information, media, and edutainment (T.I.M.E) So Telkom can bring you to the global era and life becomes easier and it feels like the word in your hand. The strengths of Telkom are : 1st Use home telephone, there is no trouble signal, 2nd To call through countries, we just push 007+code area+number 3rd For business, you can do Telecomference with all of your partners in the same time, 4th and for handphone, Telkom has created Flexi.

 

7. Flexi “Bukan Telepon Biasa” It means it’s not same as the common provider. The strengths are : If we want to call to the same provider it’s free, and if we call around Indonesia it costs use IDR 49/min. for texting, it costs us for IDR 75. We do Telecomference to 200 numbers and we can send text to 1000 numbers in the same time through PC Internet. It’s more efficient and easy to used. The conclusion is the jingle is honest about the product, but the user is not as many as other providers. And usually the user is adult.

 

8. SAMSUNG “Next It’s What ?” The concept behind the campaign is to communicate Samsung’s continous effort of bringing the “Next” in technology for end comsumers to give the best to cunsumers. And many people use Samsung cellphone because it’s various shapes and fonts.

 

9. FREN “Tak Ada Repot.” It means it doesn’t need many requirements to call to other providers. So if you use Fren, it won’t make you difficult.

 

10. IM3 "Nonstop Gratis, Gratis Gak Abis - Abis" It means, it's free to call and send messages to same and other provider. This card is usually in teenage, because of there cheap cost and fits their pocket money and the signal is strong. But there are many requirements to enjoy "nonstop gratis, gratis gak abis - abis".

 Four Type of Reading Skills
1.    Skimming is used to quickly gather the most important information or 'gist'. Run your eyes over the text, noting important information. Use skimming to quickly get up to spend on a current bussines situation. It's not essential to understand each word when skimming. Examples of skimming :

• the newspaper ( quickly to get the general news of the day )
• magazines ( quickly to discover which articles, you would like to read in more detail )
• bussines and travel brachures ( quickly to get informed )

2.    Scanning is used to find a particular piece of information. Run your eyes over the text looking for the specific piece of information you need. Use scanning on schedules, meeting plans, etc.
In order to find the specific details you require. If you see words or phrases that you don't understand, don't worry when scanning. Examples of scanning :

• The "What's on TV" section of your newspaper
• A train / airplane schedule
• A conference guide

3.   Extensive Reading is used to obtain a general understanding of a subject and includes reading longer text for pleasure as well as bussines books. Use extensive reading skills to improve your general knowledge of bussines procedures. Don't worry if you don't understand each words.

4.   Intensive Reading is used on shorter texts in order to extract specific information. It includes very close accurate reading for details. Use intensive reading skills to grasp the details of a specific situation. In this case, it is important that you understand each word, number or fact. Examples of Intensive Reading :

• A bookeeping report
• An insurance claim
• A contract

The Science of Aviation

The Science of aviation had developed greatly over the years. Leonardo da Vinci made experimental models of flying machines int the fifteenth century. A frenchman, de Rogier made the first baloon flight in 1873. In 1843, an Engishman, Henson made a model of a steam-power aircraft. Henri Gifford flew the first steam-powered, lighter-than-aircraft in 1853. In 1891, Otto Lilienthal made the first glider in Germany. In the early twentieth century, the first engine-powered, heavier-then-airplanes were made and flown by the North Americans, Orville and Wilbur Wright, and the Brazilian, Alberto Santos-Dumont.

Bisakah Bahasa Indonesia Menjadi Bahasa Ilmu Pengetahuan ?

         Menurut Sunaryo (2000 : 6), tanpa adanya bahasa (termasuk bahasa Indonesia) iptek tidak dapat tumbuh dan berkembang. Selain itu bahasa Indonesia di dalam struktur budaya, ternyata memiliki kedudukan, fungsi, dan peran ganda, yaitu sebagai akar dan produk budaya yang sekaligus berfungsi sebagai sarana berfikir dan sarana pendukung pertumbuhan dan perkembangan ilmu pengetahuan dan teknologi. Tanpa peran bahasa serupa itu, ilmu pengetahuan dan teknologi tidak akan dapat berkembang. Implikasinya di dalam pengembangan daya nalar, menjadikan bahasa sebagai prasarana berfikir modern. Oleh karena itu, jika cermat dalam menggunakan bahasa, kita akan cermat pula dalam berfikir karena bahasa merupakan cermin dari daya nalar (pikiran).
        Bertentangan dengan pendapat beliau di atas, menurut pendapat saya bahasa Indonesia tidak bisa menjadi bahasa ilmu pengetahuan, karena bahasa Indonesia banyak di antaranya yang menggunakan kata pinjaman dengan bahasa asing, dan mengangkat bahasa daerah yang dimodernisasikan. Sehingga secara umum bahasa Indonesia tidak bisa menjadi bahasa ilmu pengetahuan karena banyaknya kata serapan dari bahasa asing dan bahasa daerah di Indonesia.

Long Time no See

Kini kau telah berubah . Candamu, tawamu, sorot matamu kini tak ku kenali lagi. Saat itulah aku bertanya wahai teman, "Apa kita sudah semakin menjauh hingga satu sama lain sudah tidak saling mengerti". Pertanyaan ini tak perlu kau jawab hingga nanti aku sadar dan terbangun oleh tawamu yang dulu :') SS

Untukmu Sahabatku

Di dalam kita , ada rasa menghargai satu sama lain, di dalam kita ga ada saling ninggalin temen atau egois, di dalam kita ga ada khianat ataupun pura" suka, di dalam kita suka dan duka ada kita, tidak ada yang dijadikan tumbal atau kambing hitam. Di dalam kita, kita saling menyayangi dan menghargai. Itulah kamu dan aku sahabat :)
