Indonesian education

Indonesian education

Thanks for publishing my article in Yesterday's issue of the
Jakarta Post. However, the title of the article, which is not
mine, is a false generalization and too provocative. I do not at
all mention in my article explicitly or implicitly that nothing
has been done for education. What I have been trying to underline
in the article is that despite the fact that different efforts
have been made both by the government and the people in the
society, weaknesses are still there in many aspects of education,
which need to be addressed better in the years to come. Hence my
article is just "a 2002 review on Indonesian education," which is
the proposed title for the article.
