Sceptical thinking on student activism: Idealism or self interest


In many country, student (college student) identic with student movement or student activism. Not only to making changes in university but student activism also have major role in broader political event. In Indonesia, student movement repeatedly play a key role to brought down bad government. But what motivate student to do something like that. Are they really care about this country. Or there is other motives behind them. Every action must have motivation.

Every people need a recognition by others because it will make them feel good. College student also need it in colleges lifes. According to my supervision there are three type of how student attract others attention in order to get some recognition and respect. First, some students enjoy to show off their opulence. For example car, cellphone and apparel. Second, some students choose to be the best in academic activity. That will make them feel smart and be recognized by others. Third, the other students prefer to be activist in campus. Join student demonstration and yelling critical oration will make them looked care, brave and, of course, cool. Similar case in high school students street fight (Tawuran) in Jakarta. High school student also want to looked brave, cool and recognition from others. The more you brave and got injured the more respect you get. Hidup mahasiswa, hidup rakyat indonesia (hidup rangga cipta).

Aku harus bersaksi tentang perbuatan baik dari Ibu Amanda Amanda Badan Kredit. Saya Husnah dan saya mengambil waktu saya keluar untuk bersaksi Ibu Amanda karena dia akhirnya menawarkan apa yang tidak ada orang lain bisa.
Saya dan suami saya masuk ke utang yang sangat besar dengan debitur dan Bank dan kami mencari pinjaman dari perusahaan pinjaman yang berbeda tetapi semua datang ke sia-sia. sebaliknya mereka membawa kita ke dalam lebih banyak utang dan berakhir meninggalkan kami bangkrut sampai saya datang di kontak dengan Ibu Amanda, Dia menawarkan saya pinjaman meskipun pada awalnya saya takut itu akan berakhir seperti setiap perusahaan pinjaman lain saya datang di tapi dia tidak seperti mereka. Sekarang kita telah akhirnya menetap utang kami dan memulai bisnis baru dengan uang yang tersisa dari pinjaman.
