6. Tahukah anda bahwa Amerika mengalolasikan 5 milyad US$ dari penghasilan pajaknya setiap tahunnya untuk menyumbang Israel?

7. Tahukah anda bahwa Amerika terus memberikan bantuan militer kepada Israel sebesar 1,8 milyard US$ setiap tahunnnya? Dan tahukah anda bahwa jumlah sebesar itu sama dengan sumbangan Amerika kepada seluruh Negara di benua benua Afrika?

8. Tahukah anda bahwa Israel juga menunggu bantuan perang tambahan sebesar 4 milyard US$ dari Amerika yang terdiri dari pesawat tempur F 16, Apache dan Blackhawk? Dan karena Amerika merupakan Negara koalisi utama bagi Israel, maka ia wajib memberikan semua fasilitas yang diminta Israel untuk menjamin eksistensinya.

amerika kebanyakan nyumbang ke israel , malah rugi sendiri kan amerika , ampe pengen jatuh menuju kehancuran

No recession in Indonesia

Terry Lacey , Jakarta | Thu, 11/27/2008 10:59 AM | Opinion

The United States, European Union and Japan are in economic recession. But there is no global recession. The countries of the South, including Indonesia, currently the second largest Muslim economy in the world, face an economic downturn.

President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono and Finance Minister Sri Mulyani Indrawati are already doing what British Prime Minister Gordon Brown proposed for the UK, Europe and the U.S., to bolster liquidity and stimulate consumer and public demand.

With Keynesian pump priming and mobilization of the state bureaucracy and private sector together, Indonesia may, at the worst, lose half a per cent growth in 2009.

This will not be helped by the International Monetary Fund (IMF) nor economists from the Economic Intelligence Unit (EIU) attempting to impose a recession on Indonesia and the developing world.

A recession means that a national economy has suffered negative economic growth in two successive quarters.

Now the IMF and EIU tell us a world recession is when global growth falls below 3 percent or 2.5 percent. Then the EIU argues Indonesian growth might fall to 3.7 percent in 2009, when the local consensus is 5.5 percent.

They used to say in the second world war in the UK that dangerous talk costs lives. In this case dangerous talk could cost Indonesian money and jobs.

Confidence is everything. Despite global conditions Indonesian economic growth in 2009 is a function of leadership and capacity. Indonesia has the first and must rapidly improve the second. Politics must decide economics, not the reverse.

This crisis of confidence in the Western banking and financial system comes during the dying days of the most unpopular American Presidency in living memory.

President-elect Obama and Nancy Pelosi, the Speaker of the House of Representatives, have their work cut out. The new Democrat leadership has inherited an economic disaster and must fight desperately to save the U.S. auto industry before it collapses, while two million Americans may lose their homes, and millions may lose their jobs.

Yet the devastating legacy of the Bush Presidency, of greed and war, leaves open great opportunities for Indonesia, the Muslim world and developing countries of the South.

Indonesia can play a key role in leading the world towards economic recovery.

First by managing the national economy to maintain growth, demand, imports and exports. The nominal Gross Domestic Product for 2009 is projected at US$547 billion. Indonesia is already in the top 20 economies of the world.

Indonesia is overtaking Belgium and Sweden in GDP size. It can overtake Turkey, the Netherlands and Austria and join the top ten world economies within two decades.

Second, by mobilizing investment for oil, gas, energy projects, bio-fuels, infrastructure (roads, railways, ports), manufacturing and retailing. Indonesia needs over $50 billion for electricity alone, to finance 40,000 Mwe of power and transmission lines by 2025. Total foreign investment needed in the next 15 years exceeds $100 billion.

Alongside the U.S. and EU Indonesia is getting new investment from the BRICs (Brazil, Russia, India, China) and from APEC countries like Canada, Japan, Korea, Taiwan as well as ASEAN States including Brunei, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore and Thailand. Investment for infrastructure, agriculture and biofuels is coming from the Gulf States, Saudi Arabia and Israel.

Third Indonesia can help lead Muslim and southern economies by using its economic size and prestige as a member of the U.N. Security Council to work with southern countries to change policies and the balance of power in the World Bank, the IMF and the World Trade Organization.

As the Indian Finance Minister, P. Chidambaram told the India World Economic Forum on Tuesday the G-20 has replaced the G-7 as the key body to tackle economic problems.

Indonesia has major reservations about the IMF following its own experience in 1998. German Finance Minister Peer Steinbrueck recently said that the world should not slip into creating a shadow world economic government run by an inner IMF council.

Indonesia lost 10 years as a result of the 1998 banking crash when it put its fate in the hands of the IMF, which initially failed to understand Indonesian strengths and exaggerated weaknesses.

An historical photo showed President Soeharto sitting at his desk, signing his own political death-warrant while the IMF Representative stood over him, as he signed an IMF agreement.

In the 1998 bank crash Indonesia had no freedom and no choice. This time in 2008 Indonesia has freedom and is stronger, and can chose to tread its own path.

Hopefully its greater strength and determination will inspire Muslim and southern countries not to panic in the face of recession in the West, but to work together to combat recession and economic downturn and to build a new world economic order.

Staying Positive in Difficult Global Times


The world is in the grip of an unprecedented crisis. Events over the past month seem to indicate that the financial tsunami that began more than 18 months ago has snowballed into a multidimensional crisis with socioeconomic, political and cultural ramifications.

With so much negative news in the media, Indonesians can be forgiven for thinking that social disorder and disharmony are rife, that our economic and financial systems are about to collapse and that our very way of life is under threat. Indeed, we face a crisis that is of a global nature and dimension and Indonesia will not be immune to the fallout.

This makes it imperative that our leaders and business elite work together to create a productive agenda in overcoming the crisis. We need to have a sense of maturity, political unity and progressive thinking to safeguard the nation’s interests. And in a politically charged climate, political leaders in particular must be mature in accepting defeat at the polls with grace and not as sore losers. The ongoing gubernatorial election dispute in East Java, where there have been two revotes and one recount, is a perfect illustration of how the political elite need to adhere to the rules of the game.

Indonesians should not be swayed by the negative news they read in the newspapers and see on television. In a political season, facts are often distorted to suit narrow agendas and individuals have a habit of overemphasizing the bad news. We thus have to be extra cautious of what we are told by politicians and make the effort to look behind the headlines to discern the truth.

The fact of the matter is that despite the severity of the global crisis, Indonesia is in good shape compared to its neighbors. Our economy remains robust and we will post positive GDP growth this year. Our democracy is maturing and we have stable social and political environments. Our banking system is intact and operating efficiently with most local banks still issuing loans to corporations. Bank Indonesia’s latest move to further ease credit lines to small and medium enterprises is spot on and illustrates that the central bank is on top of the situation.

The same cannot be said for other nations such as China, India, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore and the Philippines, where the crisis is having a deep impact. Compared to the problems facing these nations, Indonesia is a heaven of political and economic stability.

Indonesia also has a strong government that has displayed outstanding leadership and shown a willingness to be bold in its response to the global crisis. As we enter the political season, now in full swing, any attempt to sow seeds of discord or social unrest must not be tolerated. While we savor our democracy and celebrate our ability to elect our leaders freely, we must not allow politicians to speak and act without responsibility and accountability. They must not only respect the Constitution and the rules of the game, they must also show deference to the government in power.

Indonesia has a lot going for it and the country is moving in the right direction. We need to stay positive and retain our sense of perspective in such globally trying times.

[DoOs_101]

Amerika di korup sama kapitalisme sendiri... Ekonomi itu memang abstrak, bisa2nya kapitalisme berubah menjadi senjata makan tuan. Maka itu Indonesia harus tetep di tengah sesuai visi bung Karno, kita harus bisa membikin Gado-Gado antara socialism dan kapitalisme.

Dan td ada yg komentar kpn dollar - rupiah stabil.

Sebelumnya dollar ke rupiah bisa naik karena FED USA sedang melaksanakan open market operation, yaitu menyedot seluruh supply dollar dari pasar luar ke pasar dalam, biar lbih bnyk duit berputar di ekonomi dlm. Kira2 rupiah ke dollar akan menguat lagi setelah stimulus package Obama di sahkan oleh congress. Saat ini ada 2 congressmen yg lom setuju.

Indonesia is a heaven of political and economic stability.

waduh klo untuk politik gw kira se rada ngawur ya
