PP No. 2 Year 2008: Sacrificing Forest to Mine?

Peraturan Pemerintah (PP) No.2 Year 2008 is probably the most ridiculous PP ever made. Briefly speaking, this PP permits acts of clearing for mining, telecommunication infrastructure, and toll road for just three hundred rupiahs per square meters per year. In my opinion, this PP will bring harm, to environment and eventually to us humans, if applied.

First, the act of clearing means sabotaging human life. Forest gives us many benefits: fresh air to breathe, pure water that flowing out from springs, woods and logs, and home for wild animals. People who can think clearly will agree that those benefits are too large to be compared with minerals that are buried under it. If clearing is commenced, there will be less water and fresh air, and those wild animals will attack villages and towns in search of food. In the end, our life is affected and—possibly—shortened by them.

Second, mining makes reforestation difficult. The rich and nutritious soil, called top soil, is only thirty centimeters deep from the surface, and—of course—those minerals lies deeper than that. In order to extract minerals, the earth must be dug up. Because of that, the top soil will be mixed with less nutritional soil, which is bad because trees won’t grow well there. Plus, it’s common knowledge that miners—especially illegal ones—don’t take all of mined minerals. Sometimes they leave behind those that are un-extract-able. This is bad because those minerals will poison water and plants, make them harder to grow.

Of course, we cannot forget that the PP isn’t fully about mining. It’s about transportation and telecommunication. Those two aspects are probably most important in this globalization era.

In conclusion, the government should inspect this PP more closely. It should be adjusted so the forest won’t be sacrificed for only one act of mining. After all, human wellbeing is more or less linked with forest wellbeing.

Television : Good and Bad

Television, piece of electrical equipment with a screen on which people can watch moving pictures and sounds, is widely used by people all over the world. Since it has become an almost primary need for family, we easily can find it in everyplace. But, behind all the joy that it gives, there are also some negative effects of television which is dangerous for family life.

Nowadays, most of tv stations received many criticism from different kinds of societies. That happens because today tv stations rarely broadcast a programme which has a good quality. The programme which is shown in television is judged as a non educative show and make people become consumptive. Moreover, someone said a shocking statement in his blog : “When I have a family in the future and the television programmes are still the same, or even worse than today, I would rather bring my family and my children to my village and live there with them, so that they will not be influenced by the ‘trash’ television programme in Indonesia.” It can be understood if the blog writer really feds up with this kind of situation because today most of television programmes are still dominated by the fake drama called ‘sinetron’ and also infotainment, which is said by Mario Teguh -a human resources consultant- is a non sense programme.

Yet, television is still the cheapest source of audio-visual entertainment and information for family. Since almost all families have had this equipment, they don’t really need to read the newspaper to know the latest news. In addition, they can also get the entertaining show easily.

All in all, television has two different sides. But, above all the good things that it gives, it still has more negative impact for the viewers and really dangerous for family life. So, in my opinion, we should be selective in choosing the television programme in order to reduce its bad sides for our family.

Television, is a destroyer enough?

Television, as described by the wikipedia online dictionary, is a widely used telecommunication system for broadcasting and receiving moving pictures and sound over a distance. Television is not an important thing that people must have actually, but as the technology advance, it has become a necessity in life. Most of people are need television for many reasons, yet the other side television has give affect to the society life. Personally, I agree with the opinion that says television is dangerous because it destroys family life and any sense of community; instead of visiting people or talking with our family we just watch television.
Firstly, television ruins the living of the family. When the television was first introduced, television was thought to bring the family closer together, by bringing the entire family member together in one room. In those days, most families had only one television. Nowadays, there is a television in almost every room of the house. Television has reduced the time spent with family. The family rituals, such as meals, bed time, and holidays, have been changed to television programs.
However, recent studies have suggested that some television programs might improve learning. Television can broaden the people’s horizon and enhance the people’s knowledge about the latest event in the world.
Nevertheless, other studies have proved that television has an effect on people as an individual and as a community, like violent behavior and obesity. Television often promotes violent acts as a fun and effective way to get what you want without consequences. The American psychological association reveals that children’s television programming alone contains about 20 violent acts an hour. The television violence can cause children to behave more aggressively. Besides the violence, television viewing can also contribute the obesity problem. People who watch too much television don’t get as much physical activity and tend to eat the unhealthy food during watching the television.
In conclusion, television has brought down the family life because of the family rituals that change to the television programs. Television also brings the new problems, such as violent behavior and obesity, to the community living.

Television, Good or Bad for Life

Television is the most mass media in the world. Statistics prove that almost every household have at least one TV. According to A.C. Nielsen Co. Media Research, about 60 percent people in the world watch TV more than 4 hours a day. This fact indicates that TV has become an important part of human’s life, not only for getting information but also for entertainment. To a certain extent, I believe that television destroys people’s sense of community. Television makes people lazy and ignoring their neighborhood. Instead of visiting neighbor, people just watch TV.

There are some reasons why people are becoming lazy and don’t care about their surroundings. Before television becoming the main source of information, people got news and other information from their neighbors or their friends. When TV could give more information that people need, people are becoming less frequent in visiting each other. Beside that, some television’s programs that attract people very much make them lazy to do other activities while those programs are showing. This makes them lazy and ignoring whatever is going on.

Yet, some people believe that the existence of television in their home can keep communication among the members of the family well. All of the members of the family gather in the living room and watch TV together. In this situation, parents can talk to their children about many things. The parents also can give advices to their children about the TV’s programs that they are watching.

However, watching television too much is not good at all. Beside it can destroy people’s sense of community, it also gives bad effect in people’s healthy. By sitting too much without doing other exercise, people are at high risk of having cardiovascular disease and obesity. Watching TV too long also can damages people’s eyes and makes them have near sighted.

In conclusion, television can destroy people’s sense of community and giving bad effect in people’s healthy if it is watched too much. By watching TV properly, like only watching news and family programs that can be watched together in a family, people can take the function of the television without getting its negative effects.

Judging the Invasion of Iraq

It has been five years since that dreadful day on Iraq at 20th March 2003. At that time, the United States of America send a massive invasion force in order to overthrow the reign of Saddam Hussein from Baath party. The President of the USA, George W. Bush, suspected that Saddam Hussein has a storage of mass destruction weapon and has a connection with a terrorist group known as Al Qaeda thus he thought it was important for him to launch a pre-emptive strike. Somewhat it is also done in order to retaliate the Al Qaeda attack on the USA which raze the WTC building to ground because Bush was certain that the Iraqi government was funding the Al Qaeda. Now, if you look at the situation on Iraq, it is clear that a total victory was never achieved or even will never be achieved. Based on the right point of view, cost point of view, and effect point of view, I heavily disagree with the invasion of Iraq by the USA and it has gone too far to be tolerated.

First, from the right point of view, the USA has violated so many rights and laws by invading Iraq. Since the day they first launched the invasion, they have already violated the boundary of Iraqi territory and their sovereignty as a nation. It is actually the very basic right that every nation have which is to have control of their region and to not to be intervened by other nation. Koffi Annan, ex-general secretary of the United Nations stated boldly that the invasion of Iraq done by the USA and their allies was illegal. The using of UN Security Council Resolution number 1441 was also a flaw done by the USA government and that justification was without a basis. But unfortunately, the UN seemed to be nothing but a toothless guard dog when facing the USA bold action to invade Iraq because the violation of international laws and rights done by the USA did not really taken care totally. The case of violation got worse when the American forces were trying to capture important Iraqi figures including Saddam Hussein himself. After he was captured, with inappropriate treatment and unfair trial he was sentenced to death in a rope. The analogy was just like you broke into your neighbor’s house because of reasons that you cannot proven yet, then you destroy a lot of his properties then kill the him, the owner of the house. It is almost the same as the case of the Iraq invasion and worst the blame and suspicion were proven wrong because there were no weapon of mass destruction and the Al Qaeda network was not revealed fully. By having a false blame, conducting an incursion, and overthrowing the incumbent leader on a nation, it was strictly breach the fundamental right of that nation.

Second, from the cost point of view, the invasion of Iraq has cost so many things. When a decision to commit an action is made and the amount of the cost is to be considered, the consideration must include the efficiency and ethicality scope, and these two were missed in the invasion of Iraq. As the invasion enter its 5th year, people around the world, especially in the USA itself, still relentlessly demonstrating, hoping for an end to the war that has cost approximately 4,000 lives of US Army and fund as much as 3 trillion US$ in total. Both the number of victims and the cost of war far exceed the number of victims and cost of Vietnam War. To sacrifice your own people and to spend so many budgets to obtain a goal which still unclear and far from achievable is really a fatal choice. The people, especially military forces, that were sent were not all commit to do the war and not all were ready. The consequence is that the invasion proved to be a gruesome slaughtering field of the USA people themselves, and this is why they are still protesting until now. And to expend such a cost was a total waste because it should be directed to another problem or maybe another nation that really needs it. According to US Center for Defense Information, USA has spend 396 billion US$ at 2003 for their military budget. That number is only about half of the world’s military budget at 2002 according to Stockholm International Peace Research Institute and is equal to 33 times of total military expenses spent by 7 raging countries. By looking at these numbers it is clear how expensive is this invasion.

Third, from the effect point of view, the invasion of Iraq brought a disastrous effect to its people. The aftermath of the invasion was not fully predicted by the US forces and their allies, and it proved to be fatal. Instead of getting better, the situation in Iraq is now becoming more violent and unstable. Unprecedented bomb explosions, street shootouts, riots, various terror actions, uprisings, and even an anytime imminent civil war ravage the cities of Iraq. The casualties were not only the troops of US, their allies or Iraqi, but also countless number of innocent souls. According to a report by ‘Just Foreign Policy’, around 1,001,000 Iraqi civilians were killed since the beginning of the invasion, this number is even greater than the number of Rwanda massacre at 1994. These victims were innocent people who know nothing of the politic intrigues and so on, some 60% are just children and 15-44 years old. Millions of other people were forced to refuge and the existing community now live in an agonizing fear. The condition in Iraq was far from safe, and the threat of violent actions that leads to death haunts everyone at any corner, about 100 people died each day because of the revolt. Even Koffi Annan admitted that the situation in Iraq is worse than at the Saddam’s reign. Although the plan for extra garrisoning of additional troopers is being considered, many predict that it will worsen the situation. Because now the situation is really in turmoil where everything is extremely difficult to be controlled and threats could emerge from anywhere or anyone. The invasion which was supposedly meant to be a liberation for the Iraqi people was turned out into a massive and gruesome slaughtering field.

From the argumentations above, it is clear that the invasion of Iraq has no basis of right to be committed, it also has a very high cost to be paid, and it has brought no development. Instead, it’s execution violates many laws and rights, wastes much fund, creates heavy casualties and disorders. I believe that we should put an end to this commotion by withdrawing all foreign military forces and start a new kind of approach. I always prefer negotiation and diplomacy to open conflict because such ways are not destructive and detrimental. If those can be carried out well, a win-win solution can be attained.

Television for children

Television, internet, and radio has been great influences on our life. Although news gleaned from television, radio, or the Internet can be educational, problems can arise the usage of those media are over limited. Too much television can mean less face time with family members and friends. Beside that, what we get in watching television can’t always give us warrant that those information are important for our life. Sometimes it can changes people behaviour instead.

Nowadays, television has become a standard part of our environment in such a way that we hardly even think about it. TV is literally just a piece of furniture to us, and we forget it's there even when it's turned on. Yet, the background noise still distracts us and diminishes the quality of our communication. In family life, especially for parents who have children at home, research has shown that children who consistently spend more than 4 hours per day watching TV are more likely to be overweight. They are doing activity rarely. Kids who view violent events, such as a kidnapping or murder, are also more likely to believe that the world is scary and that something bad will happen to them. Maybe it's better for parents to control the use of TV and to teach children that it's for occasional entertainment, not for constant escapism that can make a big effect of their sense of community when they are growing up.

In America, fifty-one students who were either very heavy soap opera viewers (more than 4 hours per week) or very light soap opera viewers (less than 1 hr. per week) provided different attitude judgments distrust of people. Students who often watch soap opera will have a great tendency in case of distrust people. That’s a big consequences affected by television. Whereas we know that sociality life is the most important thing in through this life, and one way to have a good relation with somebody else is trusting them, just the way they are.

TV, interactive video games, and the Internet can be excellent sources of education and entertainment, but too much plugged-in time can have unhealthy side effects. More or less, children behaviour affected by television. Maybe parents should try to forms their children not to over addicted in watching television in order to form their attitude when they are growing up.

The Dangerous of Television

Television is one of the greatest inventions of all time. That is why it has become a part of life for millions of people. As time goes by, people are more more addicted to television. As other gadgets do, television has it's good and bad effects to the viewer. Television served many choices of programs, such as news, drama, cartoon, and others. This has made television is watched by every family. Unfortunately, television can cause many dangerous effects for the viewer, especially families who watch television constantly everyday.

Science has shown that too much sedentary behavior -and especially television watching- puts people at higher risk for obesity and diabetes, a new study reports. Writing last week in The Journal of the American Medical Association, researchers calculated that for every two hours a day spent watching television, there is a 23 percent increase in obesity and a 14 percent increase in the risk of type 2 diabetes. People watching TV have a lower metabolic rate than people engaged in other activities like reading or playing board games, he said. Perhaps more significant, the study said, they are more likely to be eating as they watch.

The real dangers of television are that it is addictive and that it tends to stop social interaction in the home.Human beings are social creatures, and often evenings are a time for relaxation and sharing with friends and family. If an entire family is staring mindlessly at the television screen, the members are not communicating. They are together, yes, but physical proximity is not a substitute for conversation and stimulating dialog. Try this simple experiment. Keep the television set turned off and get a group of people together in the room where the television set is. Those people will start talking and interacting. Now turn the television on. You will soon find that the talking stops and people start watching the television, regardless of what is being telecast.

In conclusion, television is an addictive, non interactive media. It stops people doing other, far healthier, more life enhancing things. Activities such as exercise classes, continuing education, and even playing video games or chatting online require more energy and social skills than watching television.

Television, is it as good as our taught?

Nowadays, television is not a rare thinganymore. Television is very popular forms of mass media in the world. Almost all people are familiar with it and most of them at least own one in their house. So, everybody, children to adults, have watched television. But, I think there are some reasons that make television is a bad mass media.

There are many programs on television, which do not educate. For example, the drama serials on television (sinetron) are neither entertaining nor educational. These shows depict “real life” which is definetely not the same life as we walked on. The plot and the setting of drama serials are very unreasonable, such as a beggar who is very poor has her hair coloured and has a beautiful makeup but live in the shack under the bridge. Besides, there are a story about the girl whose boyfriend was died and then she found a man who is really look alike her old boyfriend. The “real life” in drama serials version are contains with both verbal and physical abuse which are can be followed by some uneducated people and make a crime level higher and higher.



Television can destroy family life and any sense of community. Television broadcast TV programes 24 hours a day and 7 days a week, nonstop. This condition make some people who are addicted to watch the television have no intention to do anything else beside stay in front of their TVs. It can be a dangerous situation, because those people who are TV’s addict prefer watch their television than visiting people or have a conversation with their family and friends. If this situation happened, no one will accompany them and be their friends.

But, some people think television is en excelent resource, even though it is not always used at full potential, it entertains and (sometimes) educates. They believe that television would be one of the most useful resources if some important changes were made.

In conclusion, eventhough television can be entertained, it can damage our real life. Because it can be a bad influence to our lifestyles, attitudes. It can change our way of think on the negative way. Besides, television can damage our social relationship because it can make us watch television all the time without go out and have a communication with the others.

Indonesia Television Disturb Family Values

In my observation, Indonesian televisions are being used more for entertainment than to educate people. It shows from their types of broadcast. We could observe the Indonesian private TV broadcast more on entertainment program than news. Most programs are now made locally by Indonesian production houses, and many of them are of low quality.

Television entertainment program would certainly have unconstructive impact on the younger generation if it is not guided properly by their parents. For adult viewers with not enough education background the programs would also mislead. For example, the “sinetron” prefer to shows stories related to affluent which is unrealistic condition, especially for a nation which have millions of people below the poverty line. Music program now is dominated by instant talent seeking shows; imitate similar shows abroad like “American Idols”. Even children, by the ambition of their parents, will spend more of their time to be selected in the program to pursue their dreams as an Idol base on viewers’ selection through “short message service”. The worst but popular TV programs are the celebrity infotainment. Most of them gossiping celebrity’s marital and love problems.

We then hope that the news program would balance the situation. Unfortunately, the news program seem using Principe of Bad News is Good News. Therefore we would easily find information about conflict, crimes and disasters. Some of TV programmer even shows their creative to have a scary information show about crimes. Less news on success stories of common people.

Those above programs would certainly direct viewers, in this case family, on the way of having inappropriate values in this life. Wealth “sinetron” picture will give the wrong impression about life. Ideal life would only achieve with material goods. The idol type shows will give “idea” to viewers the shortcut to be popular despite of tough normal process. It will certainly have an impact on the parents and their children to struggle professionally to shape their talents.

Considering quality of the program in our television nowadays is inadequate to learn proper values since the programs are more entertain and less educated, i think television does disturb family life and any sense of community. People tends to watch various kinds of entertainment on television rather than to socialize more with their social environment, for instance their family and friends. Meanwhile, spending quality time like having family dinner together may have better and more educated values of life and strengthening family ties.

Television in Our Life

Television maybe one of the best invention that human ever make. With this technology, human can watch all movies or news they like. Beside that, television also influenced in spreading any news or rumors about important events such as natural disaster, death of important person, and also prediction about something that will happening in the future. Without television, human life became very boring and not entertaining. Not only that, with this great invention, human can study about general science since television have discovery channel. This has made television not only for entertainment but also for education and information.

But some people think that television can destroy our life, we become more arrogant to talk to the other, we become very addicted to television program and don't care about what happening to our family, and we also become more individualist and rarely talk to the others. But in my personal opinion, I don't agree with that statement. I think television have more advantages than just become a vandal of human life.

In my opinion, television has made our bond with our family become closer and closer. We can spend all day watching television with both of our parents and discuss the film with them. Also with television, we become more relaxed to talk to somebody, as television has funny entertainment that can make us laugh. If we are stressed out about our problems, television can become our stress reliever.

Television can also become our window for us to look all over the world. With television, we can watch any important news from all over the world. Watching television make our eyes opened about important-important events that happening in the world.

With all those advantage, I'm sure that television has a lot of advantages, and not only become a vandal of human life.

The Controversial of Eavesdropping Program

The National Security Agency (NSA) is a part of the United States government, with goal to protect the United State people, by making codes and breaking codes. They collect information by eavesdropping, by listen to what people are saying in other countries, without letting the people know that they are listening. The NSA is also in charge of making sure that other countries do not eavesdrop on the United States. My opinion, the controversial eavesdropping program is not really useful for the country. In fact, there are many disadvantages factors by using this kind of program.
First, the eavesdropping program took the privacy of citizens in all country, including United States itself. The NSA's eavesdropping mission includes radio broadcasting, the internet, telephone calls, and other forms of communication. In other words, all of the activity based to communication technology is distributed to NSA. With recent technonolgy development, most of the communication within people is done through the telephone or internet. It means that most of the conversation is eavesdropped by the program. It conflicts with basic human right, because communication is linked to internal problems of daily life.
The advantage factor, eavesdropping program helps to detect terrorist and avert their plot. By eavesdrop people's conversation, NSA could predict the terrorist step and prevent it to happened. This way, NSA could secure the safety of the country. It means a lot, because the terrorist action could destroy the country balance in every aspect: economy, politic social and so on.
However, it is not easy to get the information of terrorist activity. By eavesdropping citizens of all country, the NSA would need a lot of time to analyze the information that related to the terrorist action. The reason, most of the information is circled around unimportant issues of people daily conversation. Even if it found, the information ussualy appears as codes that need to be solved in order to get the actual meaning behind it. It sure needs much time and hardwork, not to mention that the information the program is get might be fake as well.
Moreover, the country needs high budget to operate the eavesdropping machine program. NSA's budget for electricity exceeds US$31 million per year, making it the second largest electricity consumer in the entire state. Beside for using the budget for the eavesdropping program, it could be used for any other useful way, such as to increase the economic system, help poor people and so on. It also could be used to help other country that has financial problem, due to natural accident or maybe bacause of war. This would develop social relationship with other country, as well as economic and politic relationship. With good relationship, the country doesn't need to be afraid to the terrorist anymore, because the country has good mutual perspective among the world.
To conclude, the eavesdropping program is not really useful for the country. Even though it could help to detect terrorist, it conflicts with human rights because it takes people privacy. Top of that it needs high budget that could be used for other purpose instead.

Television’s Bad Effects in Family’s Life

Nowadays, watching television is already become a common habit in the families. It happens because television has provided a lot of entertainment programs (besides news and education programs) that attract many people to watch television more often than they used to. Unfortunately, some families do not realize that this habit also gives bad effects, especially to the children. In my opinion, sometimes watching television can cause a lack of communication between the children and the parents. Moreover, some programs also give bad effects to children’s life style and their way of thinking.

In some families, watching television habit can cause a lack of communication between the children and the parents. The main factors that causes this problem is that both the children and the parents prefer watching television to having a chat together. In some other cases, some children have their own televisions in their rooms. This situation allows them to come out rarely of their privacy rooms and only have little time to communicate with their parents. If this situation is not change, the family will have a lot of argumentations that will disrupt the family’s harmony.

In fact, some programs in television also give bad effects to the children’s life style. There are some programs that effect children’s fashion style. They are often influenced by western or Japanese styles which are not fit to Indonesia n culture. In other situation, many programs set glamour life as main aspect in the scene. Those kinds of programs increase their desire to change their life style into the style which is shown on television. To fulfill this desire, they are willing to spend a lot of money. This condition is likely the same to consumerism and will endanger family’s finance.

Besides that, watching television also give bad effects in children’s way of thinking. It happens because there are some programs in television which is broadcasted in unsuitable time or do not have morality aspects. For example, there are films that show criminal or pornography actions. If many children watch those films without guidance from their parents, they will think that those criminal actions are legal to do. This problem becomes more serious because some children also try to resemble those bad actions.

According to the argumentations above, it can be concluded that besides gives many advantages, watching television also give bad effects to family’s life especially the children. Some bad programs in television can drive their way of thinking and life style into worse condition. Watching television habit also causes a lack of communication among the family.

Television, An Important Rules In Our Daily Lives

Television has such an important place in our holdings because it has been a key tool in the creation and expression of cultural change in our lives. It plays significant rules that make our lives has no longer same with our past lives. It also plays important rules in creating a life style and changing cultural orientation. Television gives so many advantages for our lives. It gives so many information and even entertainment to support our daily lives. Television has really become an important household in our lives.

Even though there some statement says that television is dangerous because it destroys family life and any senses of community; instead of visiting people or talking with our family we just watch television, I’m not really agree with that. Personally I think that television exactly bring us a lot of benefits. Television has been provided with a reservoir of manufactured common experience in the form of share images, languages and references, even fictional acquaintances that extends to a national, continental, and global scale.

There are so many television advantages. For instance, nowadays almost everybody in developing countries watch television. Even though they have so many busy activities, they still make a time just for watching television. It’s so needed because they require so many input information that television provides. Television gives a lot of information from all over the world. The news programs tell us what happening in the other parts of world. We can know what occur on the world, from the accident, disaster, political situation, economic expansion till cultural alteration. As entertainment resources, television also gives us with full of entertainment. We can see motion pictures or films with our families and relations to increase our relationship. We can listen to some music programs in order to calm our bad feelings. With sport programs, we can increase our adrenaline. It can release our stress after a full day of activities. Quiz and gossip also some of entertainment that television provides to us. And there are still so many advantages that television provides which make our lives better than before.

In conclusion, television has become an important thing in our lives. By stimulating total engagement of the senses, by fracturing reality into multiple points of views and by restoring type value of oral communications, I believe that television plays significant rules that make the world and our lives enhanced.

TV, bad or good

Now days television (TV) becomes primary needs to people. Television becomes one of the fastest communication media in the world. Almost people in the world can waste their time to watch TV, many people has different opinion about television, in my opinion I disagree if TV is dangerous

Firstly, Now days some TV program comes back to their function, to inform, to entertain and to educate. For example, TV give us the latest information not only national events, but also international events, TV is one of the fastest communication media in the world. All news comes from all the world can be informed to people in the world as soon as possible. Some TV program tell us about science for example “National Geographic”, thi8s TV program tell us about life sciences, animals and applied sciences

Secondly TV is one of the ways to relax together. Many people can relax from their activities with watch their favorite program or their favorite film in television with their family. This is also the way to make the family together in one place. They can spend their leisure time to watch TV program or Film with their son, or his wife/her husband, they can discuss about the TV program or they can teach their son together. So this is the way to keep communication between family members

TV also has bad sides, for example TV program expose crime society. it can be watched be childern and make the children do as the crime. TV can make children loose sense of solidarity and their ability communication

In conclusion, although TV has some bad sides but I think television gives us a lot of advantages if we can keep the function of TV.
