Indonesia’s territorial water on the spot.
Jokowi explained that we have to do serious action in facing this problem because it is so
detrimental for Indonesia. “We have been lost around Rp. 300 trillion (US$24.7 Billion)
every year from illegal fishing” he added. This new policy needs to be done to prevent the
bigger lose and scare another foreign fish that want to come to Indonesia.
“There is no need to arrest them. We have to act decisively so that they are wary to steal our
fish” said Jokowi. There are approximately 5.400 illegal ships which invade to Indonesia
territory and steal fish from Indonesia. “It is better to sink 10 to 20 ships rather than we lose
our fish to create a deterrent effect” Jokowi said. Although our president asked to sink the
ships but he reminds the safety of the crew must be priority. They will be arrested and sent to
their country. To do this policy Jokowi would asked the relevant officials, including
Indonesian Military Commander Gen. Moeldoko, Navy Chief of staff Adm. Marsetio and
Fisheries Minister Susi Pudjiastuti, to arrange the necessary step.

parrot could say every word, except one word. The parrot would not say the name of the
place where it was born. The name of the place was Catano.
The man felt excited having the smartest parrot but he could not understand why the
parrot would not say Catano. The man tried to teach the bird to say Catano however the bird
kept not saying the word.
At the first, the man was very nice to the bird but then he got very angry. “You stupid
bird!” pointed the man to the parrot. “Why can’t you say the word? Say Catano! Or I will kill
you” the man said angrily. Although he tried hard to teach, the parrot would not say it. Then
the man got so angry and shouted to the bird over and over; “Say Catano or I’ll kill you”. The
bird kept not to say the word of Catano.
One day, after he had been trying so many times to make the bird say Catano, the man
really got very angry. He could not bear it. He picked the parrot and threw it into the chicken
house. There were four old chickens for next dinner “You are as stupid as the chickens. Just

Won the race

5. When I was little, I always looked forward to 17th Augustus because it was the day of
Indonesia’s independence. There were a lot of entertainment such as carnivals, competitions
and much more. On that day, I had a most memorable experience.
When I was still about 8 years old, I participated in various competitions in my village. At
that time, all the children in my village followed the race for the prize that had been prepared
by the committee. I enthusiastically followed all the races too. However, I cannot win. I was
disappointed, due to the race was remained one that was sack race. With a limp, I followed
the sack race. When I was getting into the sack, I saw my mother standing in the side of the
field cheering. Then suddenly I became spirit. I jumped very high and fast. Though I fell, I
stand up and run because of my mother’s voice on the sidelines. Finally I won the last race. I
was so happy and proud. I get a trophy and dedicate to my mother. Until now the trophy is
still sitting in my desk.
That’s the most memorable experience for me. I could win the last race with the help of my
mother’s spirit. That trophy became my first and last trophy in the race on August 17 because
I’m too old to follow it again.
