The government argues that the bill is made to protect women’s right. Women have so far
been the object of exploitation in mass media and this only gives more benefits to the owner
of the business.
Woman activists, on the other hand, argue that the bill will limit women’s freedom. They
believe the bill will dictate what women should wear and on how to dress and behave. If they
fail following the rule they will get penalties between Rp50 million and Rp1 billion.
Nevertheless, I do support the bill against pornography and pornographic acts. I believe that
the bill can decrease the rampant pornography shown or written in mass media that gives bad
effects on young generations.
Tsunami occurs when major fault under the ocean floor suddenly slips. The displaced rock
pushes water above it like a giant paddle, producing powerful water waves at the ocean
surface. The ocean waves spread out from the vicinity of the earthquake source and move
across the ocean until they reach the coastline, where their height increases as they reach the
continental shelf, the part of the earth crust that slopes, or rises, from the ocean floor up to the
land.
A tsunami washes ashore with often disastrous effects such as severe flooding, loss of lives
due to drowning and damage to property.
A tsunami is a very large sea wave that is generated by a disturbance along the ocean floor.
This disturbance can be an earthquake, a landslide, or a volcanic eruption. A tsunami is
undetectable far out in the ocean, but once it reaches shallow water, this fast traveling wave
grows very large.

Furthermore, the structured way of life and strict rules at the boarding school may helps
students to get used to a well ordered way of life. The manners and social skills will help
them to become more responsible and confident, and to develop their talents in leadership.
Professionally trained teachers and educators in the boarding school can offer excellent
education without the parents’ constant supervision.
In spite of these good points, it is not advisable to send a child to a boarding school if he/she
is a dependent learner. A boarding school usually demands that student learn independently.
In addition, the boarding school should not be seen as a measure to solve inappropriate
behavior or unsatisfactory study performance. Instead of improving, problematic children
may close off their relationship with their peers and teachers.
In conclusion although a boarding school may provide good education to many children, it is
not recommended for those who are strongly attached to their families. They may become
frustrated and socially isolated
