Wishing you guys a very happy new year 2015! Hopefully, everything will get better and better for me, you, and us. Just want to share an essay that I made for my English class' requirement before I got my first GPA (alhamdulillah, everything went very well :)).
So, AEC is getting closer and I think we'd better share about knowledges, opinions, infos rather than 'resolutions' right? Hehehe.. since it's kinda personal. Thus, hopefully this outline + essay help you to understand how to make an essay, AEC 2015, and also my personal sight of what suits Indonesia for its better economics toward AEC 2015. Voila! :)

Supporting
Indonesia’s Tourism and Creative Industries Towards AEC 2015
by
Azzahra Maulia
Welcoming
new year of 2015, welcoming AEC 2015. What can we be proud of from Indonesia?
Of course not for our corruption issues or smuggling issues. As we all know
that AEC 2015 will occur soon and will sue us to prepare all the best to face
the new era. There must be something to be proud of and be good at in order to
compete with the others. Indonesia needs to develop its tourism and creative
industries to maintain the sustainability of its economic growth.
The
concept of AEC 2015 is to create a single market among ASEAN countries. Single
market means there will be a free trading in goods, services, investment,
modals, and even labors in ASEAN countries. The purpose of the AEC is to
encourage economic efficiency and competitiveness in the ASEAN region, consists
of four things, towards a single market and production base, towards the
creation of regional economy with high competitiveness, towards the region with
equitable economic development, and towards fully integration in the global
economy.
As
an archipelago country, Indonesia has many attractive and potential tourists
destinations. Too bad, this big chance is not being considered by government. Therefore,
we need to develop tourism sector intensively. It could be the best way to get
extra income or foreign exchange for the country. This program must be fully
supported by government due to the needs of developing the services,
infrastructures, and outstanding promotion for the tourists destinations
itself. Moreover, the role of investors is very important to help Indonesia
develop its tourism sector. Therefore, there must be concrete action to attract
investor interest to invest.
Other
countries may also have tourists destinations too, but Indonesia will get
better if Indonesia do concern to maintain the multicultural existence.
Indonesia approximately consists of 350 ethnics with 483 languages and
cultures. Religious ceremonies and rituals that exist in almost all
regions makes unique attraction for tourists. The objects of traditional crafts
such as luster gems of Martapura, gold and silver in Surabaya, Yogyakarta,
enjoy music traditional and contemporary, exotic dances full of meaning, all
modern cosmopolitan life in the big city while shopping a variety of
world-class products in a variety of clothing boutiques, until crafts. Due to
Indonesia’s high sense in art with a wealth of traditional arts, it should be one
of value adding we have. Later, it’s expected not only create but have managed
to bring it to the highest level.
Indonesia
is also well-known because of its craftsmanship. Although, Indonesia’s creative
industries consist of several components, but Indonesia is famous for its craft
industries. There are various sections in Indonesia’s craft industries, such as
leatherworks, wood, textiles, metals, pottery, etc. This opportunity should be
used very well to obtain as much as possible in order to improve the
economy of the country. Unfortunately,
some local industries produce goods which actually belong to foreign companies.
This condition is very pathetic, just because Indonesia is still more focus on
crafting and handmade things instead of the branding.
By
seeing those conditions, Indonesia has to intensify brand development to make
it comparable and get recognized internationally. The branding itself should
also be accompanied by increasing the quality of the goods or services. The
output of these industries need to maintain qualities over quantities. An
excellent quality will create customer satisfaction, so that the customer will
publish orally—man to man—about the goods or services. As we know, customer
satisfaction is the best way of publication then we may have effortless
publication.
Therefore, we need to realize a very big
potential in Indonesia’s tourism sector and creative industries and also a
development for both of them. Seeing those conditions, Indonesia, start from
the government, the investors, the people need to hand-in-hand in developing.
The government may facilitate and simplify the bureaucracy and the investors
with their investments. Not forget the big role we have, as a good citizen, we
should be proud of local made to support this country towards AEC 2015. The
most important is collaboration between those components to develop the local
businesses.
