PSSI

PSSI was established by Soeratin Sosrosoegondo, who graduated from Harvard and returned to Indonesia in 1928. He became the first Indonesian to work at his company, a Dutch enterprise in Yogyakarta. He later resigned from the company and became more active in the revolutionary movement. To accomplish his mission, Soeratin held many meetings with Indonesian professional football players, mostly through personal contacts because they wanted to avoid the Dutch police. Later, at a meeting that was held in Jakarta with Soeratin, the head of Voetbalbond Indonesische Jakarta (VIJ, and other players, the group decided to establish a national football organization. On April 19, 1930, almost all non-national organizations, such as Voetbalbond Indonesische Jakarta representing Jakarta, BIVB Bandung,), PSIM Yogyakarta, PPSM Madiun, IVBM Magelang, SIVB Surabaya, and VVB Solo gathered at the final meeting and established Persatoean Sepak Raga Seloeroeh Indonesia (Football Association of Indonesia or PSSI) with Soeratin as the first leader.[vague] In PSSI's earlier years, football was used to resist the Dutch control of the colonies by gathering all the footballers.[citation needed] In 1936, when PSSI became stronger, NIVB was changed toNederlandsh Indische Voetbal Unie (NIVU, meaning"Football Union of Dutch East Indies") and cooperation with the Dutch began. In 1938, with "Dutch East Indies national football team" as their name, NIVU sent their team to the 1938 FIFA World Cup at France. At the time, most of the players came from NIVU instead of PSSI, and there were nine players of Chinese origin. As a result, Soeratin expressed his protest since he wanted a match between NIVU and PSSI before the FIFA World Cup. In addition, he was also disgraced because the flag that was used at the World Cup matches involving the Dutch East Indies was the Dutch flag. Soeratin then cancelled the agreement with NIVU at the PSSI congress in 1939 in Solo.

home schooling

Technology has really had a dramatic impact on every area of our lives in the last few years, particularly with the rise of smartphones and tablet computers. While those gadgets have had an undeniable effect on communication, business and productivity, one of the most interesting areas that they’re changing is education. Kids have access to an incredible range of different apps, from Spanish to math, history, science, biology and everything in between. For homeschoolers, the last few years have brought huge blessings. You’re no longer limited to working only out of physical schoolbooks, thanks to Internet programs, online homeschool curricula, etc. However, apps for tablets and phones give you and your kids the chance to delve even deeper into subjects that interest them (and those that they might be struggling with). For example, if you have a young reader struggling with English, the iPad app “How Rocket Learned to Read” is an excellent way to introduce kids to letter sounds, but it combines learning with animation and lots of fun. For older kids, Grammar Up HD makes a great way to brush up on grammar rules (it’s a multiple-choice quiz format, with over 1800 questions). If your kids (like mine) have a love for science and the natural world, there are plenty of apps out there. Britannica Kids: Volcanoes is an awesome app for learning about volcanism, and Star Walk (one of my child’s FAVORITE apps) is an excellent introduction into astronomy and the star/planet details offered by the app are great. History and geography haven’t been left out of the mix, either. Virtual History ROMA takes kids on a trip through the ancient city of Rome and introduces them to some of the wonders of the world, like the Colosseum. If you want something a bit more in-depth, then give AP US History a shot. It’s a complete study plan with tests, flashcards and quite a bit more to help your child not only learn about US history, but really get to know our nation’s past. There are even some excellent apps for art, music and creativity. From drawing and painting apps (like SketchBook Pro) to Inkpad and Symphony Pro, there are some killer apps that will really help your child learn more about these essential areas and even give them the chance to explore their interests here. As any homeschooling parent knows, finding good art and music lessons that really engage your kids can be a huge headache (that coloring book gets old after a while!). One of the most interesting innovations with tablet and smartphone apps is the numerous options for accessible learning. In schools, kids with learning disabilities have a really hard time. It can even be tough for homeschooled kids with those challenges to get the best education. You’ll find quite a few accessibility apps that help make learning easier. In fact, the iTunes Store has a whole suite of special education apps, from communication to hearing, language development, literacy and even life skills.

Golkar: Article 7, paragraph 6a Not Market Mechanism

JAKARTA, KOMPAS.com - Members of the House of Representatives Commission VII of the Golkar Party faction Satya Widya Yudha argues, Article 7, paragraph 6a Budget Amendment Bill 2012 does not mean the price of fuel oil (BBM) subsidy refers to the market mechanism. He said the article was merely to provide an opportunity for the government to adjust the price of subsidized fuel when the average price of crude oil Indonesia (ICP) rises far beyond the assumption that pegged the 2012 Revised Budget.

"What a market economy when (the price of subsidized fuel) must be adjusted to the price of ICP. This does not, just triger it, only the starting point for the government to make improvements to the price," said Satya to Kompas.com, in Jakarta, Wednesday (4/4 / 2012).

In Article 7, paragraph 6a Draft Revised Budget 2012 stated that the government is given authority to adjust the price of subsidized fuel when the average price of ICP during the last six months have passed 15 percent, ie 120 U.S. dollars per barrel, from the assumption that pegged ICP 105 U.S. dollars per barrel.

"As soon as the average ICP reached 120 U.S. dollars for 6 months, the government is given authority to adjust," he added.

However, he said, adjusting the price of subsidized fuel prices rather than to its direct ICP. It depends on the amount it costs the government. Fuel prices can only be raised Rp 500 or Rp 1,000 if the realization of the ICP price 15 percent above assumption. Satya also mentioned, the rate of 15 percent or an average ICP of about 120 U.S. dollars drawn Golkar Party faction, because when it's economical price premium has reached Rp 10,000 per liter.

"It was like the government has got a red light. It means you have to subsidize more than 100 percent," he stated.

Thus, he concluded, the price of subsidized fuel does not refer to the market mechanism. The market mechanism means that when prices rise, the ICP is now subsidized fuel prices, such as gasoline and diesel, also rose.

"Because the market is a mechanism so if we say ICP so the price, (the price of subsidized fuel) automatically go up. It's not," added Satya.

As proclaimed on Monday (04/02/2012), in some quarters including constitutional law expert Yusril Ihza Mahendra plans to apply for judicial review to the Constitutional Court to invalidate the provisions of Article 7, paragraph 6 and paragraph 6a 2012 state budget bill. Provision is considered to give rise to legal uncertainty and collide with each other and against the 1945 Constitution, especially Article 28D Paragraph 1, Article 28H paragraph 1, and Article 33.

According to Yusril, the existence of Article 7, paragraph 6a has resulted in legal uncertainty due to multiple interpretations. In fact, as discussed in the House, there was a debate among members of the House of interpretation itself. "If in an article in the Act implies that multiple interpretations, he may be canceled MK. Or the Court interpreted it to him in accordance with the constitution," said Yusril.
