Pros Cons Fatwa Haram oil prices

 
Along with the development of mass media coverage, many cases were sticking on the surface of one of them is interesting for the analysis is the case of Pro Cons Fatwa Haram oil prices.
 

Fatwa about the use of subsidized fuel to the fore after the MUI member Ma'ruf Amin conduct hearings with the Ministry of Energy on Tuesday 28 July 2011. This instantly makes the people of Indonesia immediately be shocked, because this discourse hingarbingarnya muncuat amid news of Mafia cases in our country. This makes munculannya opinion about the pros and cons of public discourse these subsidized fuel fatwa haram. However, MUI Chairman Amidhan Kiai Haji, said he had not yet decided to issue a fatwa unlawful use of fuel oil (BBM) subsidy for the rich. In fact, the MUI had not finished reviewing the plan issued a fatwa ruling subsidized fuel for the rich man. Anyway it's just a discourse is far from the name of the fatwa, let's go to the commission only in the MUI fatwa and the process takes a long time.
 

Although it is now just a discourse, but preaching in the media have been very large, much argument about the pros and cons of this discourse, both by politicians, economists, scholars of religion and society awampun participate arguments. Religious scholars who are members of the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI) said that people who are able but still buy the subsidized fuel is sinful because the subsidized fuel has been set for those who can not afford. While we are enjoying the tough reality that subsidies are the ones who can afford. Means they have taken the right people who can not afford when they are not entitled to wear the right people who can not afford it.
 

Government policy on fuel
Should the government take a policy that should be right on target. Well, that so the issue now is whether the government's target to provide subsidy on fuel?
 

The Government has determined that the targeted subsidies are people who can not afford, and people who can not have given a subsidy. This is very clearly visible on the difference between fuel prices are subsidized by non-subsidized. And the consequences of this policy is away price differences between the two, so people tend to run to the lowest price, as well as with people considered capable, they will also enjoy subsidized fuel because the price is much more affordable. Well, with so rations that have been established for people who are not able to earlier certainly reduced, so the government is likely to increase the subsidies anymore, because the rations which had been taken by people who are capable of. As a result funding for the addition of this subsidy is taken from other social funds.
 

How to respond to oil and gas analyst in this case?
As someone who understands the field of oil and gas, of course they are not to be outdone in expressing his argument about the fatwa discourses subsidized fuel. Kurtobi, was one of the oil and gas analysts disagree about the fatwa. He said that Indonesia is a state oil and gas producing countries. Then we also have Article 33 UUD 1945 whose content is whatever is mandated in the bowels of the earth, including oil. And this must be utilized fully for the prosperity of the people. He also emphasized that Indonesia remains a country along the oil producing countries and the above article still exists, then the fuel price policy in Indonesia should aim for the prosperity of the people.
 

In addition, fuel prices are set by the government against the people of Indonesia must be below the market price, because in accordance with the Constitutional Court ruling of 2004 stated repeal Article 28 of the Oil and Gas Law No. 22 of 2001 which states that the price of fuel delivered to the market price. So it is not oil and gas analysts agree with the fatwa, they said that the rich or the poor people of Indonesia and the right still has the set of clauses contained in the 1945 Constitution.
 

Reporting on this case in the show by the media is packaged in such a way as to make headlines in various media. The media also presents a viewpoint different from the case, featuring the opinions state that plays an important role as government, chairman of the MUI, oil analysts and even some that show public opinion.
 

• If we analyze this case according to the 9 elements of journalism by Bill Kovach, then:
Of the cases reporting on discourse fatwa subsidized fuel for people who can be seen here insans press makes this news exciting and relevant means of media crews are trying to find news relevant to social life, economy and politics today. Moreover, this news can make his readers captivated by the news that is given. News about the fuel that is very sensitive to the people because the fuel has a profound influence in the economic life of the community to make this proclamation be used as a public forum other than that as they always monitor the insane power of the press / policy which is set so that the media's role in preaching as mouthpiece of the people. but in this case the press strongly in maintaining the verification can be seen from the news about the fatwa subsidized fuel is the media taking data and facts and opinions of the parties concerned and have an important role. Although many opinions circulating but insans the press must remain independent (neutral) so as the party was in the middle, insane retain public confidence in the press as the party that gave priority to the truth. Preaching is shown to be proportional and discussed in depth look of each party are the pros and cons explain the guidelines and hold their own as well as this case continues on the monitor resolution. And most importantly in this case the news media still wearing conscience in making the news because neither party terpojokkan here.
 

• triangular relationship between politicians, media, and society
Politicians are the elite in the government, all governments committed to policies is affecting people, affecting social life, economic and political subjects. So the media here put themselves as a liaison between government and society. According to Denis McQuail in his theory of mass communication, the media has an important function in life is sustained by the following proposition:
 

- The media is a source of strength, controversial tool, management, and innovation in a society that can be utilized as a power or other resources. If we see in the above case has occupied the role of the media control the government's policy towards the people and is a strength that stands on the truth.
- Media is the site (or forum) that increasingly play a role, to display the events of community life, both national and international level. Starting from just greeting MUI members who express their opinions and media he tried to show by taking the viewpoint according to the news media is finally tercuat everywhere.
And here are the most affected communities. Those who obtain information from the media can perform actions on policies established by the government. In this case the people who become party to watch this struggle through the media of course will be provoked to the pros or cons about this fatwa Haran subsidized fuel, then if any of the government policy that will harm the people, certainly people are not only silent in front of the media, they also can perform actions that either support or oppose government policies.
So basically the theory of communication relationships between government, society and the media have a dependency relationship of the call with the media dependency theory is between the government and society. The media are in middle position with funbgsi he already has. And the government is also urgently need the media to the dissemination of information be it on policies, regulations and others to the community. The community also desperately need the media to as a liaison to the government. That this medium is usually known as a mouthpiece for the people.
 

Moreover, in this case I see a bit of media agenda setting, which is where the news comes as television screens and newspaper pages filled with mafia news, be it the mafia hkum, tax mafia, mob justice and others. Suddenly warm again this nation mafia news then came the news discourse fatwa subsidized fuel. It instantly made me think about setting the agenda. Coupled with the statement that MUI is a person who delivered the discourse was only saying that it's just his personal opinion just happens to journalists who asked him about it so he replied in his opinion. Well, it turns out the media exaggerate the discourse is to make the news the other slightly shifted its position in the show coverage.

From this case, the writer tries to write an appropriate solution to deal with this case.
• For the government,

How To Become a Good Student?

This is a guide to becoming a good student. No matter who you are, if you try hard enough you can succeed!

Preface 

It is important that every student, whether in elementary school ,high school or college; be aware of the basics of being a good student. These skills, of doing well in school, can be carried over to many other aspects of life.
This book is intended for those who are looking for some tips on improving their abilities, as a student and as a person. Implementing some of these ideas into academic life will surely help a student perform better in the classroom.
Hopefully everyone reading this work will learn something that they can do to become a better student and be more successful.


Qualities of a good student
Today’s students are tomorrow’s leaders. The qualities of the student are of great impact to determine the student's bright future and career. So, who is a good student? What are the qualities of a good student? Historically, the term ‘student’ refers to anyone who learns something. However, the recent definition of a “student” is mostly used to refer to anyone who attends school, college, or university.
Again, what are the good qualities of a student? The list below shows the qualities of a good student.

1. Attitude: Basically, a good student possesses the ability and willingness to learn new subjects even if the subjects are not interesting.
2. Academic skills: Acquiring academic skills is the most important quality of a good student. Ability to read comprehensively, to write effectively, to speak fluently, and to communicate clearly are the key areas in which a student must be proficient. Having a good command in all these areas will make a student to shine in the class.
3. Ability: A good student has the ability to apply the results of his or her learning in to a creative way and achieve the goals.
4. Perceptiveness: How well a student can interpret and perceive meanings from a conversation greatly determines the quality of a good. A good student always perceives right meaning from conversations, but an average student often misunderstands the original thoughts of a speaker or writer and derives a wrong conclusion.
5. Self-Discipline: Discipline in managing the time is an important factor that every good student must possess. Often delaying the tasks, such as writing assignments, reading text books, etc, may negatively impact the ability of a student to achieve the goals.
6. Understanding rather than memorizing concepts: Resolving any doubts by asking about them on the spot is always a good thing. Several surveys suggest students must understand the concepts rather than just memorize them. The memorized facts and theories will stay in student's memory until they leave school, college, or university. Once out of school, the students will totally forget the core concepts that they had learnt. Therefore, it is essential for a good student to understand the concepts.

TODO comparison:student should have to compare with all students and read. behavior:student should have to know how to behave with his or her mates,teachers,parents and elders.

Chapter 1 - Motivation 

To become a good student, you need to get motivated! Motivation can come from seeing the situation of many poor children around the world who are not lucky enough to get a proper education. This is a good thing to keep in mind when you find yourself not wanting to attend class or study at home. Another reason to get motivated to study is that you will enjoy a better quality of life as an educated person. You can go to educational websites, like this one, and surf them with interest. You must not force yourself to study, as this will make learning a chore and you will not feel like even opening your books. You will have many academically good students in your courses. Try becoming friends with them (or encourage your current friends to be better students), and you'll be immersed in an academic environment which will help you feel motivated!
Above all, you need confidence! For that, we need to feel that we are working for ourselves and not for others! Good luck!

Chapter 2 - Concentration On Studies 

Concentration follows eagerness. This section provides you with the basics of "Concentration" and also provides you with advice as to how to get aroused with concentration.
You need to pay attention in a class. Don't start chatting with your peers/friends when the teacher turns their back to you. Even better; don't associate with distracting people. You should realize that the people in your class play an important role in how everybody progresses. However, if you are a good student you will do better and achieve your goals. Your friends will be there for you at that time, if they are trustful and of a good reputation. At home, study and do your homework in a place that doesn't make you sleep. It is advisable to have a dedicated study table or desk. Don't do your study work on the bed or in front of the TV, radio, stereo, etc. That would be pointless because you are meant to be thinking about your studies.
If you feel distracted, take a short break of 15 minutes or less, maybe try to read an unrelated story book. But don't start sticking to the book if the time limit is over. Bookmark the page and then you can read it later on. You should also have a daily routine/timetable to guide you, but you must follow it through. It might be difficult to begin with, but hard beginnings make good endings.
Avoid conflicts; this will move your attention from listening to what your teacher says! "Honored zeros are better than copied hundreds". Avoid cheating, be honest to yourself and others about what you have learned, if you don't know the answer leave it, use it as a way to improve your knowledge of the subject. Remember, study well now, and you will have the chance to have fun after you achieve your goals!

Chapter 3 - Behavior ( Hardstyle Behavior) 

One of the main things that decides a person's or child's future is their behavior. Learning textbooks and achieving 100% is not enough. People should think that you are the only all-rounder that has good manners. Obey your elders, don't bully your classmates at school. Remember, try imagining yourself in the other person's situation, and you'll know how much you hurt them with your actions. Say hello to your teachers and schoolmates when you see them, people will appreciate your friendliness and be friendly in return. Use good manners in class. Raise your hand, don't interrupt if someone is speaking, and if you don't have a nice thing to say, then don't say anything at all.
Above all, try helping your friends in any situation and you'll be remembered as one of the best friends at school! Don't just do it for a good reputation, but for a good future and for yourself. You should also know that words from your mouth are enough to break relationships (or worse) so don't utter foul, discouraging, or insulting words. If someone is being rude, don't encourage them by laughing because that only makes them continue in their bad behavior.
Don't take this as a lecture, but as a guideline! Behavior should be first and then comes academics. Even if you aren't good at school, you'll be famous for your behavior, and good friends are truly worth more than gold.
Your behaviour should be such in a way that it should impress others.

Chapter 4 - Management 

This is one of the many questions that children ask their teachers, "Ma'am, I can't study!". Let's ponder on these things : Are you devoted to studying? Are you just studying for your parents? Are you just cheating in exams for getting good grades and marks? The list goes on.
First of all, as mentioned above, study somewhere that has a basic study table. Don't study or read in dim light. If you become bored on learning one subject, study something else that interests you a lot. You must always find alternatives as you go!
We all know the saying,"All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy". Yes, studying all night and not playing just stresses you on work and you'll forget everything the next morning. Play out for about 2 hours or so. It will be pleasant if you go out to play around in the evening, say 5 pm in the evening. This energizes you and gives you extra strength for everything you do.
Make a timetable. And that is all what this section is about. Arrange the time-table with the subjects that are tough for you in the first column. Then put a break column after every 2 subjects so you don't get strained.
Study on each subject for about 1 hour. Make small pauses of 10-15 minutes in between. You'll get refreshed. Use the time for something that takes your mind on the effort done, have a snack.
Try getting a good sleep. Humans are supposed to get 8 - 10 hours sleep (it goes down with age). If you don't get enough sleep, that will result in sluggishness, memory deficiency and your mind will be filled with the crave for the missing rest.

Chapter 5 - Helping Others And Advising 

Apart from improving yourself, try spreading your skills among others. This is the section that provides you with all the things necessary in sharing your skills. Co-operation is helping each other out so everyone benefits, it's the opposite of competing, where everyone wants to win for themselves. Most learning is done with the help of others, so learning to cooperate is a valuable skill for anyone. Study partners are a wonderful tool. They save time and they help reinforce what you have learned. Divide a reading assignment in half. Study your section using any and all note taking strategies you have (e.g., Venn diagrams, outlines, note cards, coloured highlighters). When you both have an understanding of your readings, take turns 'teaching/explaining' it to the other person. As you adjust your explanation to your partner, you will reinforce the concept for yourself. It works because as you think about how to explain the topic, you must understand it first! Teachers are like students who have a bit extra knowledge. To gain this knowledge visit libraries to read extra books. If you are confused by a book you are reading, ask your teacher. It really helps.

Conclusion 

You need to be successful in all classes and not mess about talking to friends and keep to the school rules. You can achieve things by setting targets for yourself and working towards them. Nobody is perfect in every subject. You have strengths and weaknesses that you have to accept. As long as you try hard every day, you will be successful. Sometimes success is just going to bed at night knowing you did the very best you could do. That's all anyone can ask of you.

7 Signs of a Successful Person

A friend of mine approached me a few weeks ago asking if I could make an investment into a jewelry store he was looking to purchase. Typically when I get these types of offers, I don’t give them too much attention, but this offer was slightly different.

And it’s not so much that the offer was different, but the person making the offer was different from the usual requestors.

Whenever someone asks me to invest in their business, I always go through the following “signs” to determine if the person will become a success.
If I believe they will succeed, I will invest; I don’t mind investing in success.

The 7 Signs of a Successful Person

1. Passion and Purpose

“Without passion you don’t have energy; without energy you have nothing.”
~Donald Trump

Passion and purpose are crucial. Passion is birth from purpose.
Why is passion and purpose so critical? Because there will always be unforeseen obstacles and reasons to give up, passion and purpose give you the strength to overcome these obstacles without losing hope.
Passion and purpose create the focus you need to push yourself to victory. As Walter Cronkite so eloquently put it, “I can’t imagine a person becoming a success who doesn’t give this game of life everything he’s got.”

2. Persistence

“Success…seems to be connected with action. Successful people keep moving. They make mistakes, but they don’t quit”
~Conrad Hilton

In order to succeed you must have a “no-give-up” attitude. You have to be like a bulldog, Winston Churchill said, “The nose of the bulldog has been slanted backwards, so that he can breathe without letting go. Are you as persistent as the bulldog?

3. Experience

“Good judgment comes from experience, and often experience comes from bad judgment.”
~Rita Mae Brown

How much experience do you have? Experience is priceless.
Virtually every successful person I know went through many years of experience prior to becoming a success; typically, 10, 20, sometimes 30 years of experience before succeeding. What are you experienced in?

4. Courage and Faith

“The important thing is this: To be able at any moment to sacrifice what we are, for what we could become.”
~Charles Dubois

Nothing great is ever achieved without the courage to make great sacrifices, and the faith to believe you will succeed. Are you willing to put everything on the line and face your fears with faith, confidence, resolution and bravery? William Shed said, “A ship is safe in harbor, but that’s not what ships are for.”

5. Sincerity and Integrity

“To give real service you must add something which cannot be bought or measured with money, and that is sincerity and integrity.”
~Douglas Adams

Isaiah wrote, “Without a vision, the people perish.” I came here to tell you, “Without people, the vision will perish.” No one can succeed without people, and people will only help those they like and trust.

6. Wisdom

“In the multitude of counselors there is safety.” ~Solomon

Do you take wise counsel, who’s coaching you? Who are your mentors? This is pivotal, it’s critical that you lean on the wisdom of others. No man is an island.

7. Growth

“He that never changes his opinions, never corrects his mistakes, and will never be wiser on the morrow than he is today.”
~Tryon Edwards

Are you willing to fail forward? I often say that the road to success is paved with bricks of failure and mortar of rejection. Failure is necessary for success. If you’re not failing, you’re not growing, and if you’re not growing, you’re dying.

In Conclusion

Will Rogers said, “In order to succeed, you must know what you are doing, like what you are doing, and believe in what you are doing.” I agree with Mr. Rogers.
In case you’re wondering about my friend’s business venture, I did make the investment. I believe success is predictable, and my friend possesses the signs of a “successful person.”
What’s your story, do you possess the “7 Signs?”
