Saya juga ingin, di Indonesia ada tempat untuk melindungi hewan-hewan asli Indonesia, jangan sampai dalam beberapa tahun ke depan, hewan-hewan tersebut musnah.
How will i contribute to it?
bergabung dan menjadi donatur di WWF.
All you need to do is to tell us, if you could change one thing in your lifetime, what would it be, and who will it be for? Yourself, your community, or your country? And how will you contribute to it?
I would like to change the way people travel around the city of Kuala Lumpur by introducing the habit of cycling to their destination. The city will be cooler when there is more trees and lesser pollution, safer when there is more bicycle lanes and lesser motor vehicles, accessible and fun for both tourists and peoples entering it. I will try to cycle to work and see how it would work out in all aspects, especially a private intervention solution to ensure such practice remains at a minimum cost.
Speaking of this problem, I really would LOVE to make a change. (I won't get anybody to change before I change myself). I'd like to change the way I treat our environment. I'd love to change the way I live. It starts from the little things I do. I don't litter. I keep the energy safe. I will gain informations about (for example) how-to-build-a-strong-house-to-avoid-earthquake. Then, I will tell the others and let them do the same. So that, we build a BIG CHANGE together :)
Me as a youth really care about this Earth, because by caring the Earth, I care for my future, I care about other's people future. And I truly believe, by doing this, I will make a contribution at least for my own self, my community, my country, and sure, my lovely Earth.
I make a change in order to make the world smiles, I want the world proud to have me, so that everybody loves me for sure. Just like Amitabh Bachchan does :)

Its not only about the basic subjects that allow you to survive in the world, but also subjects that gives you integrity as a human being. It should teach about life principles so that it will form us into better beings with better souls. As such, there will be more cooperation in this world.
On my part, i'd like to do volunteerism visit and stays in deep parts of the rural areas of underdeveloped countries. That will give me the education of a lifetime in teaching about humanity kindness.
I would like to change the mindset of our youths today so that they will be motivated to make a difference in the world.
We are currently selfish. As we only think of ourselves. Many people in the world are suffering and dying as we are going on with our daily routine.
How will I do this?
1. By reminding people that we live in a big planet. Everything that happens in this world will affect us sooner or later.
2. I will write an e-book on my experience in Padang which can be downloaded for free at by the end of December.
I had the privilege of doing a little bit of charity in Padang, Indonesia. The reasonable fares of Air Asia allowed me the opportunity to travel there and witness with my own eyes how 40 seconds shook the whole state.
I pray that this book will inspire other youths and organisations worldwide to make a difference.
3. I want to begin writing a monthly Newsletter starting January on the problems we are facing in this region and how we can help by making this world a better place.
4. I also hope to make presentations in conferences and meetings based on my experiences and aspirations.
5. If all the above receives good response, I believe that in 5 years, I would like to start an NGO based on my mission.
This change will bring peace and harmony to the world. May be this is what supreme power, or another word, GOD, is failing to meet the service level agreement (SLA) :)
Lets help the supreme power.
So I believe by starting an "Open Source Entrepreneur Community" for youths to turn their ideas, say, an career magize for youths by youths, and make it happen. Instead of just 1 youth wondering how to find the manpower and capital, we'll take 10 youths with the same interest and guide them to achieve their goals.
Youths today starting off in a business or an idea are mostly viewed by veterans businessman as immatured and has no credibility. I would love to change that view!!! Please help me to help the youths around the world!!

.
Stop marginalizing minority in the name of helping the majority. Stop stereotyping those special ones as freaks and social misfits.
Stop killing the alternative views of the youths just because they do not follow the rules. Stop oppositions that oppose for the sake of opposing, while those in power carries too much historical burden that hinders their transformation.
We can do better than that. We must.
The era of change has arrived and we are in the process of being ousted in the international competition.
Young people like me need these new paradigm to release ourselves from the mental prison we have created for ourselves.
Our society need to learn that there are better ways that clinging to the historical burdens and siege mentality; it has hindered our advancement too much.
Our country need to know that diversity is a gift, not a curse. Our rulers need to see that advancement need not and should not be a zero sum game.
In this flat world that have a long tail, the ancient mass production concept need to be tuned to appeal to individualism (with the help of ICT and web 2.0) we need to have better penetration of awareness to reach the tilting point for the essential change.
I would like to advocate for a movement of more youth participation in understanding how their country work and take part meaningfully in it, before being polluted by the infightings of the politics now, like www.ukyouthparliament.org.uk
I really hope that one day I can hear a youth expressing their view this way: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GrBaX0XmHgM
