Not only the 9/11 terrorist attacks in the USA and postulates like the ?clash of civilizations? (Huntington, 1996) but also a general growth of worldwide interrelations affecting all aspects of life and society, have contributed to an increased public interest in how the ?West? is perceived by the ?East? and in particular how the ?West? is perceived by ?Islam?. In this context, Indonesia has attracted international attention due to the Bali bombings in 2002, making the country, which has the world?s largest Muslim population (and is the largest Muslim-majority democracy), part of the so-called ?axis of evil? overnight. Yet, even though a social development in the direction of conservative interpretations of Islam can be observed, equating Indonesia exclusively with Islamic fundamentalism and terrorism is unjustified. read more

One day during December 2010 two new signs appeared on the roadway at each of the main entrances leading into Kamasan village. Consisting of a painted signboard hung between two metal poles and suspended high above the passing traffic, they differed little from the many road signs around the country which mark the spatial boundaries between villages, cities, districts and provinces. The text painted in white on a green background visible to persons entering into the village simply announced the name of the village, Desa Kamasan (Kamasan Village), while the message on the reverse, visible to those departing, read Desa Kamasan Jangan Dilupakan (Don?t Forget Kamasan Village). read more

When Jawa Pos with its DetEksi is considered as an innovative newspaper and awarded The World Young Reader Prize 2011, the judges must have thought that it has presented the best project or activity in their criteria of young reader development. According to the judges Jawa Pos has done an outstanding job with an enduring, substantial, successful commitment to engage young people on and off the printed page. ?Its daily three-page DetEksi effort is more than a standard newspaper youth section. It?s a complete strategy for finding, engaging, and retaining young readers. Most importantly, it has worked.? Besides having been the Newspaper of the Year 2011, it also wins the top prize for enduring excellence.

At least there are 43 students already recorded in Banyumas universities are involved or become victims of deception. These numbers may sound so few. However, we can assume that this victims? number is the number that revealed by the media and therefore it is very possible the real number of the victims are more than 43 students. read more
