Kalau Tak Waspada, Kita Bisa Terusir Dari Negara Ini.!!

Panglima TNI

Panglima TNI Gatot Nurmantyo mengatakan penyebab konflik dan perang kini bergeser bukan lagi akibat perbedaan agama, suku dan bahasa, melainkan untuk memperebutkan energi sebuah negara oleh negara lain. "Semua konflik melanda negara-negara penghasil minyak, yang terakhir terjadi di Suriah dan Ukraina. Sekarang, 70 persen konflik karena energi, dan nanti akan berubah ke tujuannya merebut pangan dan air yang konfliknya bergeser ke negara ekuator," katanya saat memberikan kuliah umum di Universitas Islam Negeri Sultan Syarif Kasim II, Kota Pekanbaru.

Menurut dia, negara-negara ekuator yang menjadi ancaman konflik berlokasi di Asia Tenggara, Afrika Tengah dan Amerika Latin. Indonesia tidak luput menjadi sasaran karena kekayaan alam dan jumlah populasi penduduknya. "Kalau tidak waspada, kita bisa diusir dari negeri ini. Seperti Indian di Amerika dan Aborigin di Australia," kata Panglima TNI.

Panglima TNI mengingatkan, ancaman tersebut bisa dikalahkan selama rakyat dan generasi muda Indonesia berpegang teguh pada Pancasila untuk menjaga kebhinekaan NKRI. Tokoh pendiri Indonesia menempatkan lima sila Pancasila yang mengandung makna mendalam tentang ketuhanan, kemanusiaan yang adil dan beradab, dan demokrasi Pancasila yang menjunjung tinggi musyawarah untuk mencapai keadilan sosial bagi seluruh rakyat Indonesia.

"Republik Indonesia bukan milik satu golongan, adat, dan agama. Islam adalah satu napas dengan ke-Indonesiaan dan kemanusiaan, tanpa membedakan suku," kata Panglima TNI.

Gatot juga mengingatkan agar Indonesia tidak lengah, sehingga tidak mudah dikendalikanoleh negara lain. "Kita harus waspada terhadap disintegrasi bangsa dan jangan sampai terpecah belah. Justru harus jadi contoh dalam keberagamaan, bahasa, suku, adat dan budaya. Tetapi kalau kita lengah, dapat dikendalikan oleh negara lain," kata Gatot.

Ancaman itu bisa nyata, berupa upaya China memperluas teritori negaranya di Laut Cina Selatan, hingga ancaman laten dari infiltrasi lewat film, mode, bahasa, budaya, gerakan radikalisme, teknologi, media sosial, serta narkoba yang telah mematikan 15.000 orang Indonesia tiap tahun.

"Semua itu terjadi karena kita sedang dalam kompetisi global. Yang kalah adalah negara miskin dengan penduduk besar, terjadi kesenjangan ekonomi berujung depresi ekonomi, kejahatan dan konflik yang meningkat, sehingga terjadi imigran meninggalkan negaranya yang miskin," katanya.

7 Cara Negara Lain Menguasai Indonesia

Gatot kemudian memaparkan tujuh langkah yang bisa dlakukan negara lain untuk menguasai Indonesia. Ketujuh cara tersebut adalah, menghancurkan perekonomian nasional. Kemudian, mereka juga bisa menggunakan cara kedua, yakni melemahkan ketahanan pangan.

Cara lain yang bisa dilakukan adalah menguasai arus informasi dan menghancurkan moral. Keempat, mereka mencoba menguasai Indonesia dengan cara memengaruhi gaya hidup dan perilaku.

"Kelima, marakkan industri seks, narkoba dan miras. Keenam, lemahkan fungsi keluarga maupun sendi-sendi kehidupan berbangsa dan bernegara, dan ketujuh, tumbuhkan faham radikal dan separatisme serta ciptakan friksi di mata masyarakat," kata Gatot.

Gatot kemudian memgingatkan untuk selalu mengamalkan dan mengimplementasikan Pancasila dalam kehidupan berbangsa dan bernegara. Sebab, menurut dia, Indonesia kuat karena mempunyai Pancasila yang menjadi dasar negara.

“Saya yakin dengan hal itu kita punya pondasi yang kukuh dalam menghadapi setiap permasalahan yang ada, serta bisa percaya diri menyongsong masa depan,” ujarnya.

5 Consequences of Driving without Car Insurance Do you own a car? Great! Does your car also have a valid motor insurance cover on it? Owning a car, while earlier classified as being a luxury, has now moved down to being a comfort. In fact, in metros, a car has almost become a necessity due to long-distance commutes. More and more of us are, therefore, buying a car. But are we also buying the mandatory car insurance policy? Every car which is to ply on Indian roads should have a valid car insurance cover, states the Motor Vehicles Act, 1988. When you buy a new car, the choice of buying an insurance policy is, thankfully, taken out of your hands. The on-road price of the car is inclusive of the insurance premium for your car insurance policy. The problems arise when the policy expires after a year. Car insurance plans are usually issued for one year after which they should be renewed. If you do not renew it, you are driving a car without car insurance. If numbers are any indication, a study by New India Assurance revealed that about 70% of vehicles on Indian roads are without insurance. Is your car one among them? If yes, beware. Here are 5 consequences if you drive your car without having a valid Car Insurance policy: Be prepared to pay heavy fines Earlier, the Motor Vehicles Act, 1988 governed the road safety and traffic rules. Recently, the Government passed the Road Transport and Safety Bill 2014 to replace the Motor Vehicles Act, 1988. Among other changes, the Bill penalizes you heavily if you are caught driving without having a valid insurance cover. As per the amendments, you would have to part with a whopping Rs.25, 000 for a light motor vehicles or Rs.75, 000 for other motor vehicles as a fine for driving without insurance. A huge fine, isn’t it? Pay losses for damages caused to third party or property In an accident, if you unintentionally harm any person or surrounding property, you are liable to pay the loss incurred. This is called third party liability. Your car insurance mandatorily covers this third party liability and spares you the loss incurred. In the absence of a valid insurance cover, you would have to bear the losses incurred. If the person dies, your liability would be very high. Read more Is third party car worth buying? Pay losses for own damage While you have to compulsorily pay losses caused to a third party, what about your losses. In an accident even your vehicle suffers damage. The costs of repairs for such damage are borne by your comprehensive car insurance policy. Without insurance, the onus of paying for the repairs is on you. With the high cost associated with the repairs of your car, a financial strain is inevitable. Read more about All you need to know about car insurance Face legal complications Besides the financial loss suffered in an accident which causes damage to a third party and/or self, you would also be entangled in legal complications if your car is found without a valid insurance cover. You would be penalized, get a challan and might even be imprisoned. Loss of No Claim Bonus If your car insurance expires and you do not renew it, besides the penalties and fines, you also lose the No Claim Bonus which you accumulated in your existing policy. Car insurance plans allow a discount in subsequent year’s premiums if there is no claim in any current year. This discount increases every year and saves your premium outgo. If you let your car insurance policy lapse, you lose the accumulated NCB and end up paying a higher premium when the policy is consequently renewed. A car insurance policy is legally mandatory and not having one results in serious consequences (as mentioned above). While a third party liability cover is mandatory, a comprehensive policy is better. The former pays only for the damages caused to any third party but the latter also covers damages incurred by you and your car. The premium for a comprehensive policy is slightly higher because of higher coverage. For instance, the premium payable for a Maruti Ritz car registered in 2012 having a capacity of 1197cc would have a third party premium of Rs.2237 and a comprehensive premium of Rs.4200 (approximately). With a slight increase in the premium you can avail a higher coverage option which covers for your damages too. Since car repairs are expensive, a comprehensive policy makes more sense even if the premiums are a little high. So do not fall a victim to these consequences and buy an insurance policy for your car today.
