Basic Education in Asmat-Papua

in #education6 years ago

Tanah Asmat-Papua is famous for its stunning carvings. Asmat provides a completely different panorama, because the whole area is covered with water and mud. The community settlements in Asmat land use stage houses. When we set foot on the ground of Asmat, it must have taken this phrase: "how the Asmat can live on this dense mud." Unique, extraordinary.
In the midst of our admiration for the Asmat lands with its unique humanity, we are also harassed by the prevalent landscape of the land of Papua, the bobroknya world of education. There are so many school-aged children who can not afford education.
The reason is simple: teachers are lazy to teach. Because the teacher does not teach, the children are abandoned. Instead of abandoned children, parents take children to the hamlet (sago garden) to find food. As a result, children can not get education and the chain of ignorance is never interrupted.
