Overview of Education in Indonesia

Education is one of the most important needs in human life. Everyone knows, to be able to develop the capability of self, one needs a study. Similarly in Indonesia, through 45 where the state constitution obligated the intellectual life of the nation. This means that the State is obliged to develop the Human Resources. But the implication is ironic, in fact castenization that even happen in the world of education. World where education is now all the more unattainable by the middle-to bottom. We look at the start of the level of SMTA, which the government implemented the BOS program is not able to fully help the education community. There are still many charges which burden the parents.And then the program is not evenly distributed in each region. In addition to BOS, there is another program stubs RSBI or international school, the school is implementing this program are generally awarded more than schools - other ordinary school. Where RSBI will get the better and complete facilities for students. But, by being educated in RSBI, students will bear the brunt of the cost is more expensive anyway.That's what causes the castenization, where an adequate education accessible only to the wealthy, it picture of education that is not democratic. After that we look at the campus, the student world, or commonly known with universities. The road has been traversed by scholars up to the engineers. The term'' poor'' are prohibited to be a scholar could be true, because in today's college there is no free or cheap. Even worse education today seems to be liberalized, where students made gains in the market for the sale of educational services. The presence of the Higher Education Law actually make matters worse, there is the internationalization of education of that law. Learning from RSBI, the same thing in the world will also be applied to college. Once upon a time in which students will pay a very high price if you want to get a better education on campus. Which means, only students who can afford such an education. In essence, economists have looked at three sectors of production activities, namely: First Primary Sector, Primary Sector is a business that covers all mining activities and agricultural production. Both the Secondary Sector, Secondary Sector includes business change basic material into finished goods. Third tertiary sector, the tertiary sector is a business activity that changes the shape of goods, etc. of the human condition. Along with that, the World Trade Organization (WTO) or the World Trade Organisation see education into the tertiary sector, because changing the human condition, of which not berpengatahuan and not skilled to be knowledgeable and skilled. Departing from thence into the educational services that are traded and traded.With the WTO, each country is required to open a vast market space for all members.Indonesia is also obliged since 1994 to join the world of education as a market making services in order to make profits from their participants of education. Indonesia, the country has 237 million inhabitants in which 54.42 million are aged 18-30 years mengiurkan markets, storefronts peroduk great service in the trade of education services. To further enhance the export of higher education services to developing countries, countries - imperial state through the General Agreement on Trade in Services (GATS) which aims to broaden the liberalization of services sectors, especially education in the country - member states to intervene on the government services sector abolished. Indonesia joined as a member of the WTO in 1994. As a member of the WTO, of course Indonesia has the attachment to the decisions agreed upon. Therefore, Indonesia must comply with the WTO to open a free market in education. WTO decisions are generally taken by consensus Country - Country members. Neoliberal policies in outline as listed in the Washington Concensus namely: 1) fiscal discipline, 2) cut all subsidies in an effort to reduce government budget deficits, 3) Tax Reform, 4) financial liberalization, 5) a competitive exchange rate, 6) to eliminate barriers to the implementation of free trade, 7) are open to foreign direct investment, 8) privatization, 9) deregulation and 10) of the patent. That's the strength of the birth of autonomy and self-management and education. With an autonomous educational Sitem it gives birth to the practice of commercialization by giving power and freedom for institutions to determine the tariff service and seek funding independently. This is where the role of the State to minimize its responsibility in creating and ensuring the welfare of its citizens to get their rights. While most countries will play a role in the realm of serving the interests - the interests of U.S. imperialism under the leadership through a variety of policies in the form of legislation - an invitation or cooperation - cooperation. As a result, our expectations of a democratic education, education that can be reached by all parties to be blurred by selfinterest - the interests of foreign countries.School - school, college - college is like the market, the students played a role as consumers and producers by organizing the State today. Indonesia with 237 million people were forced into the market window, and charged with various prices - the price needs including education.
