Compare and contrast about place to learn in sukabumi

Name : Torha Banda
NIM : 1830911036

    Last year it was very difficult for me to choose a university to study. There are two
options for me. The first choices is Study at university in Thailand. And the second choices is study at a foreign university. In which these two choices made me a very difficult decision.
Because I think that this decision is very important If comparing education in Thailand and studying abroad, there are many differences Such as living in a foreign country, food, weather, etc. Until I thought and decided that it would be a good opportunity if I came to study in
Indonesia. And finally I became a student in Muhammadiyah of Sukabumi university.

Most universities in Thailand do not focus on religion, that is, if I choose to study
religion. I would not have learned about foreign languages. But the education of the university in Indonesia, regardless of the country's zone, will also focus on religion. And I also felt that I made the right decision to study in Sukabumi.

About the differences in food between Thailand and Sukabumi I don't think there are
any differences. The food in Thailand has a spicy and sour taste. In Sukabumi, the taste is sweet but also spicy.But myself I like food that is salty and spicy. Anyway, I can now eat the food of Sukabumi city.

Weather between Thailand and Sucabumi Is quite the same In Thailand, if it is during the day, it will be hot. The same applies to Sucabumi. And in the night there will be quite cool Weather But both will have different rainy seasons.

The obvious difference between all is the language used in daily communication.
Thailand has its own language, but Thai language is divided into regions such as southern language, central language, northeastern language. All of these will have different accents of
speech. Like Indonesia, whose languages are divided into many languages such as Javanes,
Sundaese,etc.

And finally, I came to stay in Sukhumi Becoming a student at this university, I got a
great experience to meet new things that I could not meet in Thailand. However, I have learned
to live more religiously if I was thinking of going to university in Thailand.

Japanese Mochi vs Sukabumi's Mochi

           Mochi is one of the most popular snacks in Sukabumi. It’s really popular on Sukabumi and also on its original, Japan. Mochi came from Japan, and it’s exist since centuries ago. Although it’s not originally from Sukabumi, it has been a part of Sukabumi since the era of Japanese colonialism. Some of people say that the Japanese soldier introduced the Mochi to the Indonesian in the Japanese colonialism era. Passed from generation to generation, Sukabumi’s Mochi still exist until now like the original Japanese Mochi. If we compare both of these Mochi, we can find several differences between Japanese Mochi and Sukabumi’s Mochi.
            These Mochi are made from similar ingredients, but they have a differences on the additional flavor. In Japanese Mochi, they usually add Anko (red bean paste) inside. Besides, there are some more variant to fill the Mochi inside. The Japanese use some kind of fruit as addition or alternate Anko like strawberry, melon, and orange. In the modern era, ice cream, matcha, pudding, and even coffee are used as the filling of the Mochi. Unlike the Japanese one, Sukabumi’s Mochi has a different way to add another flavor. They added the flavor to the glutinous rice and keep the sweet bean paste as the filling. Chocolate, cheese, durian, and vanilla are some of variant that Sukabumi’s Mochi had. There are some modern flavor like Moccachino, Tiramisu, Ovomaltine and Oreo as well.
            Japan and Sukabumi both offer a unique packaging to the buyer. Japanese Mochi usually packaged in a paper box or plastic bag. They make it very colorful and fascinating. We can find a box or a bag of Mochi with variant flavor and numbers in Mochi store or even the super market. Whereas, Sukabumi’s Mochi served in a bamboo woven box covered in a piece of paper. It usually contain about ten Mochi in every box. The seller usually stack up four until five box and tie it up before they sell it. Some seller served it in a paper box but the bamboo woven box is characteristic of Sukabumi’s Mochi. We can buy a box of Mochi in a gift store or some seller will approach us and offer some box of Mochi while we visit a crowded place like train station, bus station, traditional market, etc.
            There are special day to eat Mochi. In Japan, when the new year has come, everyone will celebrated Mochitsuki (Making Mochi), the pounding of glutinous rice to make mochi. The Japanese has been celebrating this event since Heian period (794-1185). In this festival, Mochi was actually eaten in hopes that it would make our teeth and stronger for the new year because Mochi that was set out as an offering was a bit hard to eat. On the other hand, Sukabumi doesn’t have a special day to eat Mochi. Sukabumi’s Mochi is still a good choice for a gift after visiting Sukabumi in holiday, even though there are no Mochi day in Indonesia.
            As shown above, there are three slight differences of Japanese Mochi and Sukabumi’s Mochi. Both Mochi are good snacks to eat with a unique thing. Variant of flavor between these two make their taste rich, the packaging is good and Mochitsuki is interesting. It’s hard to choose which one is better, but some people say the original is always better. It depend on our tongue, some people will choose the original and some people prefer the Sukabumi’s one.

Angklung as a Cultural Heritage

If we are talking about Angklung, of course it cannot be separated from the area of West Java. This multi-tonal or double-pitched instrument is developing in Sundanese society. In the past Sundanese tradition, angklung instruments actually have a religious ritual function to invite Dewi Sri (Goddess of rice as a symbol of prosperity) to come down to earth and provide fertility to rice. The spread of Angklung is wide and spread out of Sundanese culture. One of the famous Angklung performances in the orchestra is at the Asian-African Conference in Bandung in 1955. UNESCO established angklung as a World Cultural Heritage on November 18, 2010. In addition, UNESCO strongly recommends Indonesia to always maintain and preserve its works and cultural heritage. Although there are many modern musical instruments there, it does not make Angklung lose its existence in the music world. Even UNESCO included Angklung as the Great Work of Cultural Heritage since 2010. There are several reasons that proves Angklung is not only famous in Indonesia but also throughout the world.

Angklung has many traditions, customs, types, beliefs, practises, and values. Angklung has different traditions in their own essence. Culture is the identity of a group of people living in specific place,  they have their own sketch of life what the culture says they followed at. Culture is growing which includes Angklung itself, the achievements of the past and present and makes provision for the future achievements of mankind. Culture is the result of past and present changes that occurs on it, and thus it absorb the changes itself and the culture is become the result of past and present experiences and the process continue to next generation and so on. The traditions can came from their ancestors and people who are continue doing it. Other people didn't like to continue their own traditions and adapted the customs from others cultures. Culture has a great importance. Culture is the identity of the nation, without culture the society is will not work as it be. As a country which rich in culture, it means that Indonesia is a country where the people with a sense of beauty in life. Culture also teach us to think for the nation not to think for theirself. Angklung is one culture that must be preserved, it known as a multi-tonal musical instrument that has developed with the Sundanese people of West Java and is an art in performance. Angklung is one of the national heritages that must be maintained and preserved by the Indonesian people itselfs.

There are two figures who were participated in the preservation of Angklung, their name is Daeng Soetisna and Udjo Ngalagena. Daeng Soetisna is known as “Bapak Angklung Diatonis Kromatis”, while Udjo Ngalagena developed a game technique based on the pelog and salendro barrels. In 1938, Daeng Soetigna created angklung based on diatonic scales, instead of using traditional pélog or saléndro scales. Angklung has been used for educational and entertainment purposes, and can even be played together with Western musical instruments in the orchestra. Since then, the popularity of this instrument has increased. Education also play important role in building a cultural society. Education is the basic need of human. Without education humanity will not growing, therefore almost all the cultures gives importance to education and they possess only education for their success. Then, his student Daeng Soetisna, Udjo Ngalagena continue to preserve his teacher's findings by establishing Saung Angklung Udjo in Bandung. Udjo Ngalagena, known as a figure who developed the angklung technique, teaches people how to play angklung.  He also built Saung Angklung Udjo in Bandung for more people would know the history of angklung and its identity.  And now Saung Angklung Udjo is one of the tourist attractions in Bandung where the visitors can see for theirselves the process of making an angklung to the stage action that is staged every week.

Daeng Soetigna first transform Indonesian Angklung from traditional pentatonic tone scale, and it become the "Diantonis" "Kromatis" Tone Scale. The function of the Angklung is for education and entertainment purposes. The development Daeng Soetigna Angklung in the late 60’s, have two different effect. In one side, it increase the appreciation of people on angklung. But in other hand, it slowly reduce the growth of traditional angklung. Udjo Ngalagena developed new style of pentatonic traditional angklung and also develop a new tone scale in angklung called madenda. It enrich the traditional tone scale. Nowadays, Sundanese Angklung tone scale is not only be played in pelog and salendro, but it also in madenda. Udjo’s innovation on traditional angklung become one of the solution in preserving the traditional Sundanese Angklung.

Angklung has attracted a lot of attentions through the world. In 1955, Asian-African conference located in Bandung made an orchestra Angklung performance. Udjo Ngalagena, a student of Daeng Soetigna, then opened the "Saung Angklung" (Angklung House) in 1966 as a center for Angklung development. In 2008 there were 11.000 angklung players in Jakarta and 5.000 angklung players in Washington DC and broke the latest record at that time. Since November 2010, UNESCO has recorded angklung as the Great Work of Cultural Heritage. At the April 2015 Asia-Africa Conference (KAA), 20.704 people gathered together at the Siliwangi Stadium in Bandung to play the songs "I Will Survive" and "We Are The World" using angklung instruments. 4.117 of them are children with special needs. Angklung history has changed from what was previously only played in theSundanese area now the whole world is familiar with angklung music.

As for my statement, Angklung is a cultural world heritage that must be preserved, especially by Indonesian people itself. Angklung must be protected and known to the young generation because nowadays culture rarely be recognized by the younger generation. We can protect the heritage from our ancestor in many ways. Learn the culture, whether it's just to know or participate in practising it in our lives. Teaching the culture to the next generation so that culture it's not disappered and can still survive. Love your own culture without degrading and harassing other people’s culture. We should be preserved and introduce it to the young generation so that the heritage won't be extinct.

Udjo Ngalagena, known as a figure who developed the angklung technique, teaches people how to play angklung.  He also built Saung Angklung Udjo in Bandung so that more people would know the history of angklung and its intricacies.  Now Saung Angklung Udjo is one of the tourist attractions in Bandung where every visitor can see for themselves the process of making an angklung to the stage action that is staged every week.

Daeng Soetigna first transform Indonesian Angklung from traditional pentatonic tone scale, become "Diantonis" "Kromatis" Tone Scale. The function of the Angklung is for education and enterntainment purposes. The development Daeng Soetigna Angklung in the late 60’s, have two different effect. In one side, it increase the apresiation of people on angklung. But in other hand, it slowly reduce the growth of traditional angklung. Udjo Ngalagena developed new style of pentatonic traditional angklung and also develop a new tone scale in angklung called madenda. It enrich the traditional tone scale. Nowadays, Sundanese Angklung tone scale not only played in pelog and salendro, but also in madenda. Udjo’s inovation on traditional angklung, become one of the solution in preserving the traditional Sundanesse Angklung.

Angklung has attracted a lot of attention in the international world. In 1955, Asian-African conference located in Bandung made an orchestra Angklung performance. Udjo Ngalagena, a student of Daeng Soetigna, then opened the "Saung Angklung" (Angklung House) in 1966 as a center for Angklung development. In 2008 there were 11.000 angklung players in Jakarta and 5.000 angklung players in Washington DC and broke the latest record at that time. Since November 2010, UNESCO has recorded angklung as the Great Work of Cultural Heritage. At the April 2015 Asia-Africa Conference (KAA), 20.704 people gathered together at the Siliwangi Stadium in Bandung to play the songs "I Will Survive" and "We Are The World" using angklung instruments. 4.117 of them are children with special needs. Angklung history has changed from what was previously only played in the Sunda area now the whole world is familiar with angklung music.
As for my statement, Angklung is a cultural wolrd heritage that must be preserved, especially by Indonesian people themselves. Angklung must be protected and known because nowadays culture rarely recognized by the younger generation. We can protect the heritage from our ancestor in some many ways. Learn the culture, whether it's just to know or can also participate in practising it in our lives. Teaching that culture to the next generation so that culture is not destroyed and can still survive. Love your own culture without degrading and harassing other people’s culture. We should be preserved it and introduce it to the young generation so that the heritage won't be extinct.

The Cause and Effect of Culture (mid test)

Culture is a wealth for our nation Indonesia, because our nation has many tribes that spread across each island. But do you know how culture can be formed or what effects can be caused by the culture that we have or foreign cultures that enter the country.

Culture is defined as all human knowledge as social creatures that are used to understand and interpret their environment and experiences and become the basis for their behavior. Culture consists of a set of values or norms that contain prohibitions on taking action in dealing with the social, cultural, and natural environment.

Culture contains a series of concepts and models of knowledge about various actions and behaviors that must be carried out by cultural actors in dealing with the social, cultural, and nature. Culture, which is something that can not be separated from human beings, so that many people also consider it as inherited genetically. The emergence of culture is also influenced by several factors like 

Habitation: where a person lives, influences the culture they live in, for example someone who lives in the coastal area of his life cannot possibly find tea because it is not in accordance with his place of residence

External influences: these outside influences are unlimited. For example, for the area of Central Java affected by East Java. Or when an area has many people from overseas. Not only between regions, however, this outside influence also includes the influence of foreign nations

Climate: climate also affects the culture that is lived by the community. The temperature of the environment can also determine what we do. For example, for people who live in Europe, the air is cold, so they need something that can warm their bodies, one of them by drinking alcohol. Whereas in tropical countries it is rarely done, because countries with tropical climates the air is not too cold and sometimes not so hot, so it does not need alcohol for consumption.

Ancestry inheritance: a derivative of this ancestor, or can say a kind of tradition handed down to each member of his family. For example, different regional languages. This is because the descendants of our previous ancestors. They communicate using these languages so that from generation to generation the languages used differ, although usually the level of viscosity of the local language decreases.

Mobilization: this mobilization can create a new culture. For example there is East Javanese who lives in Jakarta. So that what is in Javanese people is combined with what is in Jakarta, so that a new culture is formed (acculturation occurs).

Distance and Environment: when different distances and environments occur, cultural differences occur. For example the culture in Sumatra is different from the culture in Java. Even this can also happen in the same house.

Religion: religion also influences culture. For example, in Bali most of them are Hindus, while in Medan many are Christians. The rituals and religious ceremonies performed in each of these regions are different, and this is because it is influenced by religious differences.

There are two main factors that influence the form of cultural change, namely internal factors or external factors. Internal factors include discovery, invention, and innovation .while external factors include acculturation, assimilation, and invasion.

Internal Factors
Discovery is one element of culture, whether in the form of a new tool, or even in the form of a new idea created by an individual. Or it could also be said as a series of creations from individuals in the society concerned. Examples of new discoveries for discovery factors for example; cars, motorbikes, cellphones, tablets and so on.

Invention is the recognition, acceptance and application of a society of the new invention. This is because to prove that an individual has found something new requires not only one individual or inventor / creator, but there must be a series of creators or inventors of the new thing.

Innovation occurs when new discoveries, the existence of a motivator or motivation that causes individuals to look for new discoveries are: Awareness of deficiencies in culture, The quality of experts in a culture, and Incentive for new creations.

External Factors
Acculturation is about social processes that arise when a group of people with a certain culture is confronted with the elements of a foreign culture that will gradually be accepted and processed into their own culture without losing the personality of the culture itself.

Assimilation is a process that arises when groups of people with different cultural backgrounds interact intensely and directly with each other intensively and continuously over a long period of time so that the cultures of the groups mentioned earlier, each changes their unique nature and also their respective elements. culture changes its form into mixed cultural elements.

Invasion is an attack from one country or nation to another country or nation that aims to occupy the territory of another nation or country with the intention of carrying out the occupation of the conquered nation by eliminating or minimizing the native culture of a nation

Culture influences human decision making in consumption behavior. The development of the industry due to technology makes the company mass-produce its goods in a relatively cheap manner. This also influences the change in human culture, which at first was an agrarian society, gradually turned into an urban society. As a result, new values and life patterns are created as a result of human culture that has become an urban society. This causes the needs of their lives to be more and more, thus making them continue to buy products to satisfy the needs of the new culture. Eventually a consumptive society is formed, that is, a society that always consumes goods and services.

Moreover, culture influences the fabric of social life. This growing technology affects the order of human life. Humans are accustomed to using sophisticated technologies that have been created. As a result, human culture that used to live simply, has now become very sophisticated. This cultural change creates a modern society, which is a society that lives surrounded by technology

Culture has several effects in life and here are some of the effects of culture. First positive impact from culture, culture can be an asset of the country's economy, increase foreign exchange, can make things more advanced, increasing new cultures. 

Besides having a positive impact, culture also has some negative impacts that can be caused such as culture becomes mixed and unclear, an ethnic culture change, will cause chaos between new and old cultures, and cultural displacementisplacement

After we know what culture is, the causes of culture, and what effects are caused by culture, hopefully we can be wise in culturing, preserving, and sorting it out. because if we don't turn on the culture then who else will do it.

Type of Friends

Humans are social beings who need other people to live.  Besides family, the existence of friends is very important for humans because friends are one of the factors that influence one's growth and development.  Of course everyone wants to have good friends to have a good influence, but we don't know what kind of friends are good.  So as not to be mistaken in choosing friends here are some categories of friends.

first there are ordinary friends, ordinary friends are people who used to interact and know us everyday.  they are usually people in the environment around us like at school, at home, or at the playground.  they will help us if necessary, but the emotional closeness is not very strong.  the number of ordinary friends is usually a lot

Second is a best friend, a best friend is someone who knows about his or her friend well and accepts their shortcomings without feeling strange. A best friend will usually help their friend with sincerity and have a very strong emotional bond.

A best friend will also remind their friend if they make a mistake and ask them to do good, the number of best friends is usually not much because best friends are some people who can be trusted.  Make sure you have at least one best friend.

And the last is a fake friend.  Fake friends, those who are close to us with a specific purpose only take advantage without caring about their friends.  Fake friends are usually tucked between ordinary friends and it is not difficult to distinguish them because they will only be there when we are happy but disappear when we are distressed. Be careful with this type of friend.

After we know several types of friends now we can sort and choose the best.  We don't need many friends, just a few as long as you can trust and remind each other.
