Loving the homeland is the nation's moral values that are
increasingly depleting. The existence of free markets, foreign culture, and
role models to the new globalism which enter freely becoming one of the causes
of fading a sense of love to the motherland. In fact, in the modern era, it’s
hard to find a teenager who respects the ideology of the country, even those
who are living abroad and even ashamed of admitting it.
Now,
It’s time to build up the enthusiasm and bring the spirit back for loving our
country, Indonesia. This role is actually embraced by the youth, cause youth
has a pretty good impact for stronger Indonesia. Youth is a
figure that always brings alterations. Alteration in life order of some era is
quite influenced by the role of youths.
Nara
Masista Rakhmatia, a youth whom I choose as my inspiration to act for stronger
Indonesia. Why do I say so? Due to her act which wowed the public when she
spoke on behalf of Indonesia during the 2016 United Nation General Assembly.
When the delegations from six countries expressed concern over Indonesia's
alleged human rights violation in Papua, she firmly responded by accusing them
of interfenting with Indonesia's sovereignty. Nara had already shown her
courage with a tremendeous answer in International forum and earned many Indonesians
expressing on how proud they are to have someone like her.
But
sadly, the Indonesian media in general seem to be more impressed by her beauty
than her achievements. Media is still perpetuating the idea that beauty takes
precedence over a woman’s skills and intelligence. Hopefully that the emergence
of such positive female role models like her can eventually go towards erasing
the idea which is appropriate to objectify women in Indonesia.
Related to the act
which has been done by Nara, we can conclude that youth generations can have
the provisions to become the agents of alteration.
Make our youth as the time that’s full of benefits and all the good things before the coming of old age, when all of our spirits would fade away. What are we waiting for, if we can do the alteration now? Use our youth times to become the part of nation’s awakening history in Indonesia.
