Phone Radiation (Dwi)

Nowadays, mobile phone is very important for some people in this world, started from children until old people. The simple form of mobile phone makes society more interested in using mobile phone than home phone. We can communicate easily with other people anywhere. This paper will argue that the societies just know about the advantage of the mobile phone but they do not know about the bad impact of the mobile phone. That’s why, this paper will explain about the drawbacks of the mobile phone radiation to user’s brain and DNA.

            As a matter of fact, only a few people know that radiation of mobile phone can be used to cook an egg. In the mobile phone component, there is transmitter, which functions to change voice to be sinusoidal wave that can be transmitted through antenna. This wave will fluctuate through the air (microwave) that will result electromagnetic radiation (EM). Microwave radiation will modify protein in egg that may make it ripe. It is proved by an attempt using 2 mobile phones and an egg, an egg lied in between 2 mobile phones which are in active condition, in 55 minutes after transmitting microwave to each other, the egg will get riped: This radiation can be sensed while our ears feel hot if we speak via mobile phone for a long duration.

            Furthermore, radiation of mobile phone can irradiate not only protein in egg but also protein in human’s brain. Most people waste their time to communicate via mobile phone. And then, currently societies eased by various offer to communicate for a long duration with a cheap payment. Only by buying TM (Talk Mania) packet, they can talk more than 1 hour. If we imagine in 55 minutes, mobile phone’s radiation can cook an egg, how about our brain?

            In fact, radiation can change structure human DNA, including radiation of mobile phone. When someone is calling, his/her mobile phone will be put nearby their head. In this position, it is highly possible for the phone radiation to be absorbed by the human nerve system. Consequently, nerves in the brain vein will blow. The higher the radiation, the more radiation absorbed by human nerves, it means the damage will be more acute. Besides that, using mobile phone excessively can make gene mutation that will trigger cancer.

                In Conclusion, we should not worry excessively because of radiation from mobile phone, the damage is not as big as the one caused by radioactive. But, we should also consider that even if it’s the smallest impact, but if we get exposed continuously, it will cause bigger damage.

Malpractice (Sulaiman)

Doctor is one of the most prestigious professions. Many people interested to be a doctor because they think being a doctor can give a warranty for their life because they can get higher salary than other profession, thus many parents suggest or even force their children to choose Medical Faculty as their main priority even though their children don’t have the talent or eagerness to be a doctor.

If we compare education for a doctor in the past and present, it’s really different. Some people said that they used to need 8-10 years to pass in Medical faculty but now medical students can finish in 5-6 years. I think every doctor must have more experience in their field so that they can be an expert as a doctor. Doctors must have more capability, quality, or qualification because they must ready to face their patient. Being a doctor is not easy because they have some responsibility over their patient if they do a mistake or negligence when conducting surgery, it can cause their patient to suffer, disabled, or even die. These mistakes called ‘Malpractice”

One of malpractice case is malpractice done by dr Ayu and her friends; dr Hendry Simanjuntak dan dr Handy Siagian in Manado. Some people said that dr Ayu didn’t have the capability to handle her critical patient Julia Fransiska Makatey because she didn’t has a practice’s license (Surat Izin Praktek) until she made her patient died. Julia’s family said that they wait for 15 hours before dr. Ayu and her friends conducted a caesarean. Verdict of Supreme Court decided that dr . Ayu and her friend did malpractice over their patient until their patient died. They got verdict 2 months jail punishment.

To sum up, being a doctor is not easy; they must have more experience, qualification, or capability to handle their patient so that they can do their profession with their professionalism.

Can Free Health Service Make Indonesia Healthier?

Free health service generally well understood with free medical treatment at Government health care facilities such as service clinic and hospital. In the middle of expensive health service, it’s a promise that smells of heaven to the people. However, investment in the health service does not automatically guarantee increased public health status. This short essay will discuss the presence of free healthcare that can decrease awareness from society to have a healthy lifestyle.

Health Status is influenced by 4 factors, which according to the order of importance are the factor of environment, community health services, nutrition and genetic. Although in many places the service clinics and hospitals is free for the poor people and thousands of people have been using it, the suffering of the poor people is not reduced, they still hurt again and again, even though it has cured many times as well.
Free health service lull the poor people. Because it’s free, then people forget to keep their health and apply a clean living and healthy nutrition. None will pay attention to hand washing, drinking boiled water, and stop smoking, if pain can be treated free of charge.

The community, whether poor or not presumably need to always be aware that health services especially in hospitals is an expensive service costs. That awareness is lost with medical treatment. So there needs to be a system that intensively reminds anyone to keep their health and give a reminder if they neglect it.
In conclusion, health is one of the important things to have a good quality of life. Therefore it is important to keep the community stay healthy and prevent them from the disease. This task is more difficult than healing the diseases. 

POSITIVE SIGNAL OF HUMAN BODY (Fatwa)

The human body is one of the most modern and most complex machines that God has ever created. Inside human body, there is an amazing protection mechanism called the immune system. It is designed to defend human against millions of bacteria, microbes, viruses, toxins, and parasites that would invade human body.

Common people still think that health is identical with “doctor and drug”. Drug is still being a miraculous capsule that can cure everything. This condition was aggravated by drugs advertising that given excessive information. The founder of modern homoeopathy - Dr. Samuel Hahnemann said “Treating the symptoms of the diseases by drugs like shooting the bullet in the dark room”. Do you know that our body always tries to communicate with us? Feeling of thirsty, hungry, sleepy, dizzy, tired, fever and soon are the ways of body to convey its intention to us. The body always gives a signal for us, but unfortunately, we pretend that it was negative signal that must be cured by various drugs.

Body signal should get responds as fast as possible with a right method. Sometimes, when we got headache, the best way to respond is search what cause it. Don’t just take a shortcut way like consuming some drugs. Headache because of hypertension will have a different solution with headache because of glucose decrease. Generally, headache is an impact from other diseases. Almost 75% headaches are caused by digestive problem.

To Sum up, the author want to persuade you to be a doctor for yourself. With the sign from your body, we are expected to pay more attention to body’s right. Give the right for your body to get a better quality of health. If our communication with our body is good, it is easier to prevent disease. 

PROSTITUTION (Vee)

Prostitution is an act of providing sexual service in exchange of money (or other beneficial payment) between two or more people. Prostitution sometimes referred to as “world’s oldest profession”, nevertheless the legalization of prostitution itself is different from one county to another. Some countries prefer to illegalized and criminalized prostitution while others may varies from decriminalized to regulated (legalized) prostitution. Until now ongoing pro-contra debates and opinions regarding legal prostitution are still spread wide across countries as they include human rights, personal choice liberation, moral degradation, human trafficking, poverty, law enforcement, violent/rape cases, religion and HIV/AIDS into the equation.

People who favor the legal-prostitution argue that the benefits come from legalizing prostitution are enough to protect the society in general and the persons actively involve in the act itself in particular. Regulated prostitution will provide law protection for the sex-worker and legitimate prostitution as a decent work along with the benefits that come from it; it will reduce the act of violence from the clients or the pimps, because the female sex-worker can report the abuse without being charged as a criminal for selling sex herself. It will also reduce the number of HIV/AIDS transmission because the sex-worker is finally granted regular health checks as a mandatory requirement for the profession. Economically, it will also benefit the sex-worker because they can earn their income legally and pay the tax which will also benefit the government. This pro legal-prostitution stated that it’s ridiculous to keep prostitution as illegal while the demand of sex service increasing each day, it will only lead to illegal human-trafficking. While human-traffic is wrong because it’s a coercion act, prostitution is seen as a decision between two consenting adults; it’s a human right for people to choose what they want to do with their bodies.

On the contrary, people who support the decision to keep the prostitution as illegal argue that prostitution needs to stay illegal because the destructiveness of prostitution outweighs its benefits (if any). Prostitution devalues all of our moral standards and thus legalizing it will mean legitimizing the idea of some women as commodities to be exploited. And grant implicit approval to a dangerous and immoral practice in society. Sex-workers are often forced into the industry by sex-trade, pimps or poverty, so it’s indicating some underlying problems within the society. Instead of legalizing prostitution as a legitimate work, we should provide adequate education for everyone to ensure them options to a better work than being sex-workers. Religion also hold strong opposes to the legal-prostitution as it’s a sinful act for selling sex when it should have held sacred within marriage, it’s not a legacy we would pass down to our children. It’s also wrong for the government to gain economically from legal-prostitution since it’s no better than encouraging government to involve in other unlawful trades such as the trafficking of drugs. Moreover, legalizing prostitution will increase demand which will increase the rate of human-trafficking to meet the demand and will eventually endanger our society health as it’ll increase the probability of HIV/AIDS transmission
