Kejujuran Seorang Koruptor

Akhirnya seorang koruptor mengakui aib yang dilakukannya, dan mungkin inilah awal dari kejujuran koruptor-koruptor yang lain. Hopefully,...

Pak Sugeng Nuhhariyanto, seorang Lurah Karang Pilang, Surabaya, kemarin akhirnya blak-blakan sehubungan dengan tuduhan korupsi dana program Bantuan Kenaikan Bahan Bakar Minyak (BKBBM). Jadi, tahun 2006 kemarin, pemerintah menyiasati kenaikan BBM ini dengan memberi bantuan, berupa uang sejumlah 300,000 untuk tiap KK (kepala keluarga).

Pas itu, Nie’ uda mikir, “ini mah ujung-ujungnya bakalan ada kasus korupsi.” Ternyata dugaan Nie ngga salah. Pak Lurah Sugeng ini adalah salah satu Lurah yang mengaku mengkorupsi uang BKBBM untuk rakyat. Applause for you, sir!

Mengapa Nie’ menganggap kasus ini spesial, lebih spesial dari kasus korupsi bulog-nya Widjanarko? Karena Pak Lurah satu ini ngaku kenapa dia korupsi. “Menurut Sugeng, uang tersebut digunakan untuk kepentingan hiburan semata. Bukan untuk kepentingan keluarga maupun membangun rumah atau membeli barang.” (dikutip dari Jawapos, Senin, 30 April 2007). Hebat! Pak, pak, uang yang sampeyan korupsi itu buat beli beras keluarga, untuk beli susu anak-anak, dan untuk membiayai pengobatan istri yang terus aja hamil.

Lebih hebatnya lagi, uang yang dipakai Pak Sugeng untuk hiburan, alias dikorupsi, berjumlah 98 JUTA. Alamak, buat hiburan apa itu ya? Kalo di Belanda, dibawa ke Holland Casino, mungkin bisa untuk supply dua hari, bahkan mungkin pulangnya bisa berlipat ganda, atau kalo ‘didonasikan’ ke Red Light District, malah bisa untuk bikin kartu abonemen atau discount card. Gila, di Indonesia, being a Lurah, uang 98 JUTA itu dibuat apa?? *Nie’ ngomel-ngomel sendiri* Apa istrinya pake Louis Vuiton? Apa anaknya pengen dibeliin I-Pod? Atau dia lagi terobsesi beli Smartphone yang ada fitur 3G?

Ini hanya Pak Lurah Sugeng, ordinary man yang mungkin nggak pernah tau apa itu mobil Lamborghini, 3G, or TV flat-screen. Gimana coba dengan ‘teman-teman’ Pak Lurah Sugeng yang punya kursi-kursi di DPR, or MPR, or Kabinet? Berapa ratus milyar atau triliun yang mereka korupsi?

Sadarkah mereka, bahwa satu tas Louis Vuiton yang mereka belikan untuk istri atau selingkuhan tercinta is equal to supply beras untuk penduduk satu kampung? Sadarkah mereka bahwa mobil baru keluaran Jepang yang mereka kendarai hari ini is more or less worth the cost for milk for babies in the rural areas in Indonesia?

Goblok kamu, Nie, jelas-jelas mereka belum sadar! Lha wong ini polisi Surabaya masih mencari teman-temannya Pak Lurah Sugeng, maling-maling ayam, yang ikut-ikutan korupsi!

Ayo, siapa yang mau menyusul Pak Lurah Sugeng, untuk bikin testimony ke publik bahwa mereka korupsi? Nie’ janji deh, pasti akan Nie’ tulis di blog ini.

What would you do if you could live another life

What would you do if you could live another life just for one day? This line is quoted from "Last Chance Harvey" . I have watched this film twice and still feel so touched everytime I watch it. Kate Walker, the main character in this film, uttered this question to Harvey Shine. In this story, both of them lived a life that is not very happy-chappy. Kate lived in a pathetic, boring life; Harvey in a screwed one. When Kate asked this question, both of them seem to ponder: what if I could live a different life, just for one day, just to try out. This question makes me ponder, too: what would I do if I was given a chance to live any kind of life I want, just for one day? Where would I be? What would I do? Who would I be? Lately I have been thinking about the life I am living right now. Everything is so well-planned. I graduated from high school, went abroad to study, came back home to work, went abroad again to do my master, working in a reasonably good organisation, and going ho

Cold Feet

One of my closest friends is getting married tomorrow another one in May another one in November. and an ex-classmate is also getting married in April/May. and, I dreamed about getting married last night. I remember some months ago I was so enthusiastic with the idea of getting married. Although I knew that our relationship was not yet ready for that stage, I was so pushy to Stefy. I had asked him when exactly we would get married. Ah well, it was all the flashy things that I longed for. Right now, what I want is to avoid it! I am just not brave enough to throw myself into this new status. Don't get me wrong, I am probably just like any other girls out there who like the beautiful wedding gown, like to be made up, like to be the queen of the night. But, have you ever considered what would happen after you wave off the guests and head to your own home, starting your new chapter of life? or what would happen after the happy chappy honeymoon? Would we then live

WSAD? (What Should Ariel Do?)

As a communication expert, we always need to be prepared for crisis communication or disaster management. If a company suffered a bad publication, or when bad things happened, like with BP’s oil spill or Toyota’s cars, the communication people need to work very hard to communicate the right message (while some other people work on to make things right) and to win the public favour again. In theory, companies need to be prepared for crisis way in advance; however not many companies did that. I believe, Ariel had also never thought that such drama would happen, but yeah, here it is, and he has to face it! So, here is my humble opinion regarding what he needs to do to clear the air: Scenario 1: Launch a single/album Celebrities, especially musicians, usually would create a drama or scandal to increase their popularity in order to promote the next movie, single, or album that would be launched. What Ariel could do is to write a song (or an album) as soon as possible and launch it! And thee
