Young People and the Dilemma of Minimum Salary

Tangerang, 22 July 2025 - For many young people in Indonesia, the UMR (Upah Minimum Regional) salary is often the starting point in the world of work. But with the increasing needs of life and social pressures, a UMR salary often feels insufficient. A dilemma arises: stay for the experience, or look for opportunities with higher rewards. While some choose to stay with idealism and loyalty, others take the risk to change jobs for a better salary. This phenomenon reflects the reality of young people in facing the dynamics of today's working world. UMR salary is designed as a minimum standard to ensure the basic needs of workers, but in practice, the needs of today's youth are much more complex. From transportation costs, food, housing, to modern lifestyle demands such as internet access and entertainment all of which add to the burden of expenses. On the other hand, many companies still offer mediocre salaries with the excuse that “you are young and need experience.” It's no ...

Moral Education: The Main Foundation of Schools in the Digital Age

  Tangerang, 06 July 2025 - Education is more than just transferring knowledge; it is also about developing character. Moral teaching in schools is becoming increasingly important in an age of knowledge overload and rapid change. Schools have a crucial role in establishing noble values in pupils, fostering persons with integrity and accountability. Academic intelligence alone is insufficient to confront life's complex issues in the absence of a strong moral foundation. It is time for us to recognize that investing in moral education is a long-term investment in our nation's future. In this fast-paced digital world, children are exposed to a wide range of unfiltered information, both positive and negative. Social networking, online games, and other digital platforms can all have an impact on their attitudes and behaviors. Without adequate moral guidance, kids are exposed to undesirable consequences such as cyberbullying, spreading fake news, and other unethical behaviour. L...

Study or Work? Which One Should be Prioritized?

Tangerang, 03 July 2025 - After completing high school or vocational school, many young people in Indonesia feel confused about choosing between continuing their higher education or immediately looking for a job. This decision is often complicated because it is related to the future. Higher education is considered a means to get a degree and better job opportunities. However, going straight to work also provides concrete experience and quick income. This choice becomes more complex when the family's economic situation is a major factor. In my opinion, the choice between continuing education or starting a job is not the same for everyone. Everyone has different situations, needs, and life goals. For those who have the financial ability and interest in academics, going to college can be an important capital for the future. Higher education provides a broader perspective, builds connections, and increases opportunities to get a better job. However, beginning a career after completing ...
