Quality education

Quality education
starts with books

From Republika

Education is of great importance for the growth and future of
a nation, so every country is striving to introduce the most
suitable system for its citizens. Sadly, Indonesia still lacks a
good education system.

The number of school dropouts in Indonesia continues to
increase due to high fees, so does the rate of unemployment as
job opportunities are few.

According to surveys, Indonesia's education ranks 122nd out of
175 countries, which is still below Vietnam. Besides, none of the
higher learning institutions in the country is among the world's
top 500 universities.

Who should be concerned about this situation? The government,
while apparently disinterested, has issued a regulation on campus
autonomy, which has only led to higher education costs.

So, we should start with ourselves. For instance, from now on
we should read a lot of useful books, improving the quality of
our education. Later, this will indirectly help improve the
government because a smart society can encourage good governance,
which would result in a better education system.
