Exploitation Children Education in Papua


Exploitation Children Education in Papua, In Solar Institute, Gading SerpongTangerang
In Surya Institute Gading Serpong Tangerang
Professor Surya dream reaching for the sky, has been treading the dignity of the children of Papua and Papua have hurt the feelings of the community at large. Achievements of the two Papuan students in mathematics-physics olympiad can indeed be proud of these achievements have been made yet "prestige" institutions to raise the prestige of the Solar Institute in convincing the Government of Papua as trustees Education scholarships. Students who should be the subject of students, has been made the object for-profits in education besarnya.Kapitalisme Surya Institute, appears in a management system that does not fit the boys, but Governmet, Responsibility and Akuntability but it has become a family crony Surya, nepotism and networking business tempting.
Indonesian society has known Prof. figure. Surya as the people who play a role in advancing the world of exact sciences, especially mathematics and physics olympiad achievement. But in the course of time, a noble mission to raise the dignity of Indonesian children even more colored orientation "business" that crippled noble mission. Surya Institute with business expansion to accommodate as many students from 17 district representatives, representatives of Provincial and Private Institutions and dariPropinsi Papua and West Papua has become a tempting field profits as much as possible. The promotion has been tempting Government of Papua which has a strong determination to send their children outside of Papua. Goodwill Government of Papua and Papua have dibelokan public trust in business-oriented education. Every child who entered the program in Papua SIP (Surya Intensive Program) has been used as a machine "ATM" which each month to print money, but the financial utilization is not directed at the development of educational facilities and services for the children of Papua but directed to "Business Foundations Surya" and Surya University project that bangunanya just contracted. It is unfortunate, students from elementary, junior high, high school students from Papua to pay fifteen million per month is not balanced with service accommodation, food often is not even worth dikonsumsi.Keberadaan basih Solar Institute with SIP program (Solar Intensive Program) and will be SAI (School Children Indonesia ) the loss of orientation let alone the loss of pupils Papua because Papua as Merauke district government has taken steps Merauke origin pull all pupils numbered 59 students (in 2013), thus began to be followed by other Papuan government to withdraw all pupils and not continue its cooperation program . Because the SIP Program Solar Institute is at its nadir "untrust".
Since 2009 Prof.. Yohanes Surya work with the LG lagging regions develop mathematical tops (easy fun and enjoyable), where local children can learn math behind it easily. Students who are considered "dumb" he is able to master the elementary school mathematics grades 1-6 in just 6 months. This program is far from expectation. For information Surya Institute implement Human Resource Development Program Specifically, Development, and Science and Mathematics Education Elementary School and Junior Secondary School (JSS) to prepare students follow the National and Olympic Trials.
Student Data Program SIP (Surya Intensive Program) in September 2012: elementary, junior high, high school All Papuaberjumlah 332 students with the following details: Asmat (48 students), Kaimana (8), Keerom (15), Lany Jaya (3), LPMAK (19), Mambramo Kingdom (5), Jayawijaya (2), Mappi (15), Merauke (73), Mimika (9), Nduga (9) Personal (11) Provincial (48), Peak (5), Sorsel (4), Tambrauw (20), Tolikara (20), Waropen (2), Yahukimo (1), Yalimo (10).
In addition to the SIP program, There's also Smart Math Teacher training programs that are proven to be ineffective, high school students who took mathematics courses some of which are proven to not pass the college entrance test, as well as STKIP Lecture Program, which until now has not been accredited status where most students come from representatives of Papua .
There are several fundamental problems faced by Solar Institute:
1. Education disoriented
Initial ideals by recruiting students who are gifted in limited quantities for mathematics and physics olympiad program can be said to be reaping the rewards, but when recruited students in large numbers, and do not follow a good recruiting process, has made Surya SIP program lost direction. On the one hand, chasing a target exact areas where students are encouraged to study mathematics day and night with a tight schedule, rigid discipline, even as there are cases of violence experienced by elementary school students IV's. Anton Were from Merauke where his mouth was given by individual teachers cobe spicy Mathematical Olympiad students elementary through the trauma does not go into an Olympic class, but now follow the regular classroom. Already it is conceivable that small children often join Olympic-class adrenaline-driven pursuit of "target" between prestige and promotion lempaga education to profit from the performance of students. Actually, to excel in Maths Olympiad many methods and more humane way as other schools can excel. While for regular classes in large numbers is certainly not targeted to join the Games but regular classes but the subject matter is not appropriate for the exam curriculum Nasional.Akibatnya Papua national government must pay to repatriate transport students to their homes, then join the program khsusus exams nationwide. In fact students who had joined the study at Surya Institute of getting the same value with the students who attend school in Merauke and some have failed. SIP program at Surya Institute did not get a report card let alone a diploma. So, suppose students SIP Solar Institute graduate program then the student will still receive a diploma from their home village.
2. Dormitory life:
One implication "accommodate" a lot of students, namely: the kids getting out of control, lack of discipline, a lot of kids are sick (worms, skin diseases), food less nutritious, less smartly dressed. In addition, support facilities in the hostel: places and recreational equipment, places of worship are not yet available. Moreover, the pattern of development of the hostel does not have a clear method for Papuan children. Orientation coaching hostel does not have a system and approach patterns corresponding character of Papuan children. Faith formation often incompatible beliefs imposed upon students but students must participate for prayer and worship. It is often protests from parents. Papuan children cultural roots, the roots of faith, parental affection. The builder does not have the skills and understanding of the character and culture of Papua lead the children out of control, often violent behavior, bare feet, dorm situation berpakaiandan same way as his native village.

3. Minimal service cost prohibitive.
Surya Institute of Management is not transparent in determining the cost per item and is not accountable program in financial reporting. Some local government in Papua have difficulty getting financial statements of the management of Surya Institute and therefore, has been highlighted by the Papua Provincial CPC the cost of education in the Surya Institute. Indications obvious distortion flate bill every month as well as a mismatch between the amount of fees and pelayanan.Untuk SIP program, Calculations: Each month students are required to pay RP. 15,000,000. In a year: 12 X 15,000,000 = Rp. 180,000,000 by the number of students = 332 USD. 59.76 billion. How the calculation since the program's inception in 2010 until mid-2013? What about the cost of other programs such as the Teacher Training Papua, matriculation high school, STKIP and other programs? With the financial amount then it can build superior schools in some areas of Papua.
Some cost items that we highlight are:
a. Accommodation: Each room with its small size has 4 beds. Each child pays Rp. 3,000,000 per month. Means any room in a month USD. 12,000,000. So in a year with a small size room cost Rp. 144,000,000. The fee can pay the rent / contract of 2-3 units / year. Even if comparing rents in commercial boarding around Surya Inst. USD price range. 1000000-1500000 per month. Recreational facilities and other activities is not yet available, except the sport in the open field.
b. Consumption: Rp. 3,000,000 / month / child is not worth the cost of eating and drinking students STKIP Rp. 1.500.000/bulan/anak. STKIP students and students of catering food SIP program are the same and there are often complaints expired food, even during holidays (Christmas) is not regulated as a result of food hungry children.
c. Transportation: Each month will be charged Rp. 600.000/peranak. The reality is that elementary school children are relatively much just walk 100 meters, except for junior / senior high school using the relatively close distance.
 
d. Daily needs of students Rp. 400.000/peranak/bulan (instead of pocket money received directly) delivered randomly to the students (there are no reports of performance to students), information obtained by the students each month receives Rp. 120.000, - while the children are often seen not using sandals, clothes are not neat, and so on.
e. Honor Teachers Rp. 3.000.000, - and escort Rp. 1,750,000 charged to each student per month.
f. Experiments and coaching race: Rp. 650.000, - Not all students participate in coaching competition (Olympics), only 4 of the 73 students who participated in coaching student competitions (Olympics). So it makes no sense to make the calculation of the overall child. For Olympic competition, there is a separate disappointment experienced by the local government to Merauke where 2 children there should be opportunities to Korea but the school less and less anticipatory response.
g. Health students: Since the 2011-2012 Solar Institute provides costs Rp. 400.000, - / child / month. In reality not every child is sick sick let alone the same every month. That means every child health funds invested. Note that: the child of Mereauke if pain (severe) will be referred to the hospital and be cost government Cikini Merauke.
Other cost items, its use has not been established. Clearly, if the Department of Education and the district did not criticize the management of financial reporting the Solar Institute will not know where the money was spent. At its core management Solar Institute can not apply good governance institutions and clean, and can not bertanggungjawap and accountable and not be able to build trust for the people of Papua.

Responding to the issues mentioned above, some local governments began taking action Papua rescue the children of Papua and the Papuan people save money by taking steps:
1. Withdraw or transfer all students (SIP) to another school before entering the new school year.
2. Rationalize the payment by making a recalculation of cost and service output which is not in accordance with the Cooperation Agreement. Case in point: In 2011 Merauke government has paid more for high school matriculation program, which recruited mustinya is class 2 for the 2-year program, which recruited grade 3 reality that the program just a few months. Merauke local government has paid over 1,800,000,000, - Paying more is not reported by the management of Surya Institute. This is a finding to be accounted for.
3. Ignoring or menundah payment before the financial statements of Surya Management Institute which is in line with the demands of Papua CPC so that proof of payment transactions and realization must be accounted for.
4. Cancel and terminate the program continued, although the Cooperation Agreement has expired. If you need to take legal action in order to clear the problem.
5. Questioned and demanded to Surya Institute programs are not implemented as experienced Lani Jaya district.
6. CPC provinces of Papua and West Papua immediately took steps to carry out financial checks on Surya Institute Papuan people about money.
7. Government of Papua and West Papua establishing excellent schools take steps patterned or based boarding school education in some strategic areas. It is better to build excellent schools that meet the needs in the Land of Papua. *
