Concerned about university students

From Warta Kota

As a student at a privately-owned university in the city, I feel concerned that university students in the city generally are not serious in pursuing their studies and learning to become independent people. In fact, university students enjoy wider opportunities to do so than those for whom the door to further studies is closed.

I came from my village to study in Jakarta because I thought Jakarta had a lot of modern and advanced educational facilities. Unfortunately, after attending a privately-owned university here, I find conditions different from what I imagined before.

I find students in the city generally lack seriousness about becoming intellectual people. This country was once ruled by students who had leadership capabilities. If this situation is allowed to go on unchecked, where will the country be heading? Let's work hard in the interests of our state and nation.
