In September 2000, the Government of Indonesia, together with other 189 countries have committed to work together to reduce global poverty, hunger and disease. The commitment what their plan are stipulated in the eight goals which are to achieve in the next five years and it so-called Millennium Development Goals. Millennium Development Goal in itself is remarkable of course if it can be realized. Because according to the eight goals set forth in the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) is a package of goals that can change the state of the world become more prosperous in the next five years, exactly in 2015. And the most important anymore, the MDGs can help to handle problems that occur in our country, namely the State of Indonesia.
MDGs can be a milestone in support to make life in this country becomes more prosperous. If we see today only, the poverty line that struck in Indonesia is very extreme. Number of unemployment only add to the burden and make the miserable state of this country. Most of the jobs require educated and high potentials. In contrast, many young people in Indonesia have not been able to feel to get an education seat properly. Now, with the Declaration like this that one of its goals is equal distribution of basic education. Education is the most important means to make this nation into a developed nation or I could call it a super nation. Access to education in the State of Indonesia is expected to grow by a maximum in the presence of the MDGs. With the future of education that can be paid off, then the chance and opportunity of youth in Indonesia to apply for a job or creating a business is not too difficult. And the impact will be rolling with a reduction in unemployment in Indonesia. Reduced unemployment even this will also be an impact on the decline of poverty in Indonesia.
It is interesting that I mentioned here about the state of education that places less attention. In the second MDG goals are listed on the equalization of education. The reality in Indonesia today, facilities and infrastructure that support the education is still not maximized. Education is very important for the citizens of Indonesia. But it would be much better when the place, facilities that support the educational process also ignored. Due to the existence of facilities that support education, can not be denied again that the distribution of science would be evenly distributed, and will not be the backwardness of knowledge among students. Seeing the situation that shook this country, and it caused the disaster that hit Indonesia. Indonesia should realize that the geographical position of this country is prone to disasters. Therefore where education was not considered to be underestimated, if a disaster occurs and places to support the education destroyed, would carry around the fate of those who want to get an education. The Indonesian government participating in the arena of the MDGs should be more nimble and introspective thinking in the future if events take a position that can not be predicted this to happen.
Declaration on the MDGs which consists of several countries in the world, of course, the countries involved in UN (United Nations) have the same purpose in the subject of poverty. Indeed, poverty is the most basic goals. However, poverty alleviation efforts itself must be effort .One way is by providing proper education to Indonesian children who do not get proper education. People who are educated are not necessarily successful life and get a good job, let alone people who have never been educated, her life was just relying on luck. Here I do affirm the MDGs into the case of education, that education is very vital in the life of the nation. To that end later in the MDGs, the Indonesian government to prove their commitment, and brought the country to a country that has a brighter hope.
