Population, Labour and Employment Training:
‘Renew the new spirit’
At Wisma PGK Shanti Dharma, Godean,
on 21 – 23 November, 2014
The title above makes a little bit confusing! How come?! Is it possible to renew a new thing? Yes, it is not easy to understand the title. Let us consider for a moment about its background. At the end of November, Yogyakarta frequently rains. The temperature affects health and stamina, however, dozens of students Stube-HEMAT Yogyakarta kept their spirit to join training, discussion and designing follow-up activities. Activity was designed in one training, entitled ‘Carpe Diem: Have Your Day!’
The training was held for two nights and three days at Wisma PGK Shanti Dharma, Godean, on 21 – 23 November 2014. This training includes several activities, such as introduction, reflection, team games, ice breaker games, discussion and sharing. The enthusiasm and youthful spirit of Stube students indicated by the number of participants. Forty-seven people from various faculties, colleges, majors, semesters, regions and traditions. They met and thought together in discussion sessions.
Having know each other, they learn more what Stube is, an organization that equips students with knowledge, skills and experience. Furthermore, participants will be able to develop their regions’ potencies.
Hadi Sutarmanto, a professor of Psychology, in Gadjah Mada University, shared psychological theory used for recruitment selection. Various needs of the company causes the requirements are difficult. Sometimes a person with ordinary skill be accepted than the skillful workers because he/she fulfill the company requirements.
Martuti, a labour activists from Sragen, Central Java, facilitated the third session. She brought a movie about labours and their life. The movie uncovered how the workers’ welfare was ignored for the sake of maximum company profit. Workers have no time to think of their life investment or other business. Thus, the protection of workers is absolutely needed. The next session is delivered by Sri Hartati, from BPPM DIY, revealing experience in assisting women and communities in the province. Kinardi, from Regional Executive Board of the Confederation of All Indonesian Workers Union (DPD KSPSI), shared about bureaucracy and government’s concern towards workers.
The last session is facilitated by Dr. Murti Lestari M.Sc., a researcher in Development Economics. The topics discussed was ASEAN Economic Community (AEC), an important topic, but less popular among students. The implementation of AEC will increase competition in all aspects from national to the regional level. In one hand, we get a wider opportunity, because AEC will simplify ASEAN people to mobile around Southeast Asia area. So, we can work in various countries in Southeast Asia. On the other hand, number of non-Indonesian workers in Indonesia is also increasing. Our un-readiness will hurt ourselves, so we have to be ready to compete.
The closing session discussed follow-up activities that will be done by participants. They will promote the topic among other students and make preparation to face the competition through self- improvement and entrepreneurship. Wish this activity be a blessing for all of us. (YDA).
