The Banned of Social Network Site
positive and negative side of internet
On this modern era, internet became an important thing to use. A lot of activity happend on internet like browsing, emailing, chating, playing game online etc. Many of important activity based from the internet but internet not always profitable for the user , it also can bring a bad effect for the user. Internet have it’s negatif and positif side.
As we all know, internet became a thing that very helpfull for all because internet can shorten the time and more efective. We can just send an email and a person that we aim will accept it right a way when we send it. I aggreed that internet can help our work to be more easyer, but unfortunatly many of people abuse that disadvantages.
According to the latest research presented in a special issue of Developmental Psychology, published by the American Psychological Association (APA), spending a lot of time on the Web can have both negative and positive effects on young people, i.e., the sharing of self-injury practices by some and the improvement of academic performance and health awareness by others Between 75 and 90 percent of teenagers in the United States use the Internet to email, instant message (IM), visit chat rooms and explore other sites on the World Wide Web. (http://www.apa.org/)
Thats prove that internet is more used in a good side. Internet can help worker to help their work and help kids to learn their study from internet which can improve their academic performance.
On the other side internet also can gives a bad impact for the users. Internet can seperate anything that uploaded to it so quickly, no matter what age, gender and job, it can consume by all of people. If there i s any bad news or video that not approprieate, all the people can know that just in a asecond. its dangerous for a kid who watch that kind of unpropriate video, it can influence they psycologist . watch unpropriate video on an internet can gives bad impact because many of violating action happened because of watching those videos
In conclution, we have to smart to chose what sides of internet that we want use. Internat could be helpfull but also can gives a bad effect to anyone.

Public Transportation

As we all know that public transportation is really important to support the economy of each countries, I personally think that Trans Jakarta helping us in decreasing the traffic. Bus way is the government solution for citizen to decrease the amount of cars and pollution.
“Back to the TransJakarta project. Everybody knows that this idea was adapted from Bogota, Colombia. But in Bogota, they add the lane for the busway, NOT using the existing lanes as it is in Jakarta. Less car lanes, more traffic. The TransJakarta is meant to reduce the traffic and encourage car owners to use public transportation. Is it really happening? The way it seems, now the traffic jam occurs not only during the week days on Sudirman, but also during the weekends. Imagine if the busway operates on Rasuna Said: two fast lanes only. Imagine 5:00 PM weekdays driving through Rasuna Said and Warung Buncit. Nightmare.” Retrieved Monday, August 9, 2010, from http://parvita.wordpress.com/2006/08/26/jakarta-busway-getting-better-or-bitter/
I personally disagree with this statement that mention Trans Jakarta or Bus way not helping the society in increasing the traffic. Firstly if the Trans- Jakarta not helping, why people still use it? And secondly government makes this trans Jakarta because government tries to reduce the uses of private cars. If you think logically when the amounts of cars reduce slowly, the traffic will reduce slowly too. Imagine if government not make trans Jakarta, will Jakarta free from traffic. And in addition I personally believe this Trans Jakarta really helping people who not using private cars, but need some safety, comfortable, and save time, just like people who brings their own cars. Thirdly government not add the lane for Bus way because, if the government adds the new lanes for Bus way, which road will be take for the lane? Do you agree if government cuts or take lanes from the building beside the road? I do believe that take the lane is the best solution and also I do believe this regulation or Trans-Jakarta help to decrease the amount of traffic.
“The number of Transjakarta passengers keeps increasing over time. From January to November 2009, Transjakarta served approximately 6.8 million passengers per month, which is an 11 percent increase from the same period last year.” Jakarta post, The (2010) retrieved Tuesday, August 10, 2010, from http://www.thejakartapost.com/news/2010/01/09/transjakarta039-transforms-jakartans039-travel-behavior.html
