Who's left to blame?

When I was young somebody asked me like this, "What you gonna do after graduate?" Then I would answer "Working on a great company, with great salary and full facilities". Was that simple? Not at all. In fact, it took such a long, long and long way to go. Unfortunately, I wasnt the only one. My friends answered the same. Hell yeah, what a wrong paradigm [as well as the curriculum]. They [me too] studied hard to reach the dream, working for somebody else, or [in rude words] we're educated to be an employee. What happened next? Most students graduated, hunted for the job, and on and on, so that the job seeker's grew faster than the job itself. In the end, the unemployment raised from year to year. In 2008 unemployment still 9,7 % of two hundred millions more Indonesian citizen.
There's something wrong with the paradigm, as well as the curriculum. They supposed to be educated as an enterprenur who creating a job, not seeking a job. Well, now on, the curriculum is much better, though it can't effectively reduce the number of unemployment in this country. However, to start being an enterpreneur is not as simple as saying a word. It needs a strong will, wide knowledge, and great network. If everybody in this country has this kind of paradigm, then the employee would not seek the job, but the job seek the employee. It can simply help the goverment to finish tiringsome homeworks, vanish poverty and unemployment. Isnt that interesting? Yes, it is. However, if someone has nothing to start a business, at least he / she has the strong to start it oneday. Learn it from anyone, anything and anywhere. I have a recomendation for those who has that strong will, especially everybody in Surabaya.
