Pro and Contra Pasar Minggu Kota Bengkulu

Should government relocated bargainers from  Minggu market to  Baru Koto market?

                Traditional Market is the important  place for many people because in market we can see the bargainers meets the buyers. Every bargainers in market sell their goods to buyer who need goods. We can see traditioal market in every town has different from another traditional market in another  town. Talk about the traditional market, Bengkulu town has a traditional market too, People called Minggu market. Minggu market located on the KZ Abidin street near the main road of the town where the street is including as the most crowded place in the morning. The bargainers sell their goods along the street and the activity in Minggu market started from 2am where the bargainers sell many kind of fruits, vegetables, and traditional tools.

                Based on the  command from Mr. Helmi Hasan as the major of Bengkulu town, Minggu market will be relocated to Baru Koto market. The first reason why government should take relocation because this way will be taken to minimize crowded in the morning. Then, the relocation from government is very helpful in achiving the Major’s program “Bengkuluku Bersih”, this is because if the market will be relocated it mean the main road will clean from cabagges where produced from many activities in the market while the stinky smell will be dissapear through the clean enviroment. Last, not only focus to clean the cabagges, relocation will make the main road or downtown will be more organized and well ordered. If this program will be running, i think we will see the true downtown with clean enviroment and organized.

                In contra side, almost bargainers who sell their product there refuse the major’s program even they will be relocated to new place at Baru Koto market. They think this program will make them lose their buyers and lose their job. Their reason are make sense because if they will be moved to Baru Koto market, its mean their buyers will take long distance to get to the market and the buyers will be dislike to go there. Talk about Baru Koto, almost bargainers said if the place is not strategic because that place is far from the buyer and the trasportation to go there is very measly so it will difficult to get more buyer.

                Talk about the controversy in this problem, we can not blame The government or the bargainers and we can not choose who is right or not. I think if the program will be running, first thing what the goverment have to do is the  government should serve the place for bargainers based on what the bargainers needs like strategic place to sell or near to people. Second, serve the buyers and the bargainers with easy trasportation or accomodation. This is the important thing that we should remember because some buyers are come from long long place. Third, government should supervise the market start from controling the market, see the market performance and more sensitive toward the condition and situation. And the last one, the bargainers should keep the market clean, keep the market organized, and keep the market well ordered. This is very important for bargainers to make market enviroment still healthy and clean. If the bargainers can do some steps above, it will make buyers come and come.

the controversy about action movie for children

Should children doesn’t have right to watch “action movie” on television?

            There is no doubt that television has changed the world and how we view it. With just the point and click of a button, we can see everything there. There are  hundreds of channels to choose from. Such as Cartoons, sitcoms, news, cooking shows, music videos even action movie. With so many viewing options, determining what we should be watching has become a great concern, especially when it comes to children. It is no wonder that cable and satellite providers have built in parental controls. Violent and aggressive acts abound on TV. Many times it is children who are viewing these acts. According to the Center for Media and Public affairs, "The typical American child will have witnessed 40,000 killings and 200,000 acts of violence on television", all by their 18th birthday (source: Media Violence 121).

            Usually, action movie provides the scenario with agrresive action such as kicking. Punching, and fighting. It is very bad violence for children because it will influences them in emotionally and physically. Children are good imitator. They will imagine themselves like a character in the movie or they can try to imitate themselves. If the character plays kicking and fighting sometime they will do the same thing in real world. If the parent can not handle this situation it will be a great mistake for parent. In other side, action movie not only provide the bad influences for children by do fighting, kicking, or punching but usually the movie provide the scenario or conversation between characters with very rude words. If the children see and listen the words they will do the same words like what movie told. So the children will use ‘rude word’ in their daily activities too.

            In contra side, i will say that action movie not only provide bad influences for children. You know what? Almost action movie provide the bad guys and good guys in the scenario. The scenario is the keyword to create a meaning for children. The scenario give the moral value and life lesson for children too. It is better if the movie have enough moral value and life lesson. Like example, good guys always win and have good life than bad guys and the bad guys always punish and suffering in the end of the story. The example above can teach the children to do right things and be a good guys in real world and they will fear to do bad things because they do not want to suffering in the world. It is very inspirational example for children so they can inspired and they will usual with do good things in the world.

            Action movie serves bad influences and good influences for children. It can make the children so agressive and hostile and in other hand it can teach children how to be a good guys in the world through moral value and life lesson based in the scenario. Watching televison is one of entertaining program at home but every parent in the world should protect their children with choose the good movie first for their children before parents let them watch. Second, it is better if the parents watch the movie together with their children. So the parents can teach their children directly and for addition this activity will make parents-children has good relation each other exactly in affection side. Last, Parents are ultimately responsible for what their children view on Movie. It is recommended that parents exhibit their responsibility and take control of their children's viewing habits. If the children are regularly watching violent and aggressive shows, change the channel. By doing so the parents will not only be deterring  children from committing hostile aggression, but helping to groom a better adult in years to come.
