Prajurit TNI yang berada di perbatasan memiliki tugas berat untuk menjaga kedaulatan wilayah NKRI.
Tak hanya sekadar menjaga Indonesia dari para pelintas batas negara, tetapi mereka juga melakukan tugas-tugas kemanusiaan untuk masyarakat setempat.
Bagaimana beratnya tugas seorang tentara yang menjaga perbatasan negara diungkapkan oleh warganet bernama Irfan Risandy.
Ia mengaku pernah bertugas untuk menjaga wilayah perbatasan RI-Papua New Guinea, antara tahun 2014 sampai 2015, selama 11 bulan.
Dalam sebuah postingan yang cukup panjang, Irfan menceritakan bagaimana prajurit TNI harus memastikan patok negara tidak berpindah tempat.
Dalam kondisi yang serba terbatas, terkadang mereka memakan makanan yang sudah basi, mengajar di sekolah dan memberikan pengobatan gratis.
Hingar bingar kehidupan kota rela mereka tinggalkan. Kerinduan terhadap keluarga juga hanya bisa diobati dengan panggilan telpon, yang sinyalnya timbul dan tenggelam.

"KEPADA YTH,
BAPAK KOMPOL ABDULMUBIN SIAGIAN
beberapa hari ini komentar bapak sangat VIRAL di FB tetang pernyataan bapak bahwa TNI diperbatasan indonesia kerjanya hanya makan dan tidur..
Jujur saya sangat kecewa dengan pernyataan itu.. Hati saya sangat sakit membaca komentar bapak.. Seandainya bukan krn lorengku.. Sudah ku teteskan air mata ini krn komentar bapak yg terasa perih bagi saya..
Saya adalah salah satu prajurit yg pernah diberi kepercayaan oleh negara untuk menjaga perbatasan RI - Papua New Guinea antara tahun 2014 s.d. 2015...
11 bulan bukan waktu yang singkat utk hidup diperbatasan pak..
Kami rela meninggalkan satuan tercinta kami demi tugas yg mulia ini..
Meninggalakan keluarga kami..
Meninggalkan kehidupan modern ditengah kota ,menuju hutan belantara dan perkebunan kelapa sawit di perbatasan papua..
Saya masih sedikit beruntung krn Pos penjagaan saya masih dekat dengan pemukiman warga dibanding rekan rekan saya yg lain yg ditempatkan di pos tanpa pemukiman hanya babi hutan dan burung kasuari yang lalu lalang di sekitar mereka..
Disana kami tdk bisa sebebas dikota menggunakan listrik dan air bersih..
Listrik sangat terbatas pak.. Air bersih pun demikian..
Kami tidak bisa bebas memilih makanan disana pak.. Apa yg tersedia didapur dan dikebun itulah yg kami masak.. Bahkan kami sering makan Ransum yg rasanya sudah sangat ennek dileher..
Sekali lagi pernyataan bapak bahwa TNI diperbatasan kerjanya hanya makan tidur sungguh membuat luka dihati kami..
Kami disana memang butuh makan pak.. Butuh tidur juga tp itu bukan kerjaan kami pak..
Kami tak bisa makan seenak yg bapak makan.. Dan tidak bisa tidur sepulas tidur bapak..
Disana kami bukan sekedar menjaga perbatasan dari para pelintas batas dari negara tetangga.. Tp kami masuk ke sekolah sekolah utk mengajar menggantikan peran Guru yang kekurangan disana..
Kami masuk kedesa desa terpencil yg jauh dari jangkauan pemerintah untuk memberikan pengobatan gratis menggantikan peran Dokter yang hampir tidak ada didaerah sana.
Kami ikut andil melakukan pembangunan disana pak..
Kami merangkul masyarakat disana dan menanamkan rasa nasionalisme kecintaan terhadap indonesia..
Kami yg mensweeping miras miras ilegas diperbatasan..
Kami yg turun kemasyarakat berbagi dan sharing tentang cara bercocok taman yang baik dan benar agar dapat meningkatkan taraf hidup mereka yg diperbatasan utk lebih baik..
Dan rekan rekan saya kadang keluar masuk hutan selama berhari hari atau bahkan berminggu minggu dengan bekal yg terbatas dan seadanya hanya utk mencari dan mengamankan Patok Batas dan memastikan patok tsb tidak bergeser..
Sekali lagi 11 bulan bukan waktu yg singkat hidup diperbatasan pak..
Kerinduan dengan keluarga hanya terobati dengan telepon seluler yg signalnya kadang ada kadang hilang..
Disana tdk senyaman kota besar pak..
Kaki kami tidak sembuh sembuh dari kutu air yg menyerang..
Bukannya kami tdk mengobatinya.. Tp obatnya tdk mempan krn bakteri dan kutu airnya sangat ganas..
Belum lagi penyakit malaria yg menyerang rekan rekan kami yg berada di pos tertentu yg malarianya sudah tidak diragukan lagi keganasannya.. Bahkan mereka membawa penyakit itu sampai hari ini yg kapan kapan saja bisa kambuh kembali..
Tp semua kesulitan dan ketidaknyaman itu bukan kendala bagi kami..
Krn kami bangga dengan tugas negara yg tdk semua orang diberi kesempatan itu..
KERJA KAMI BUKAN MAKAN TIDUR PAK..
TP KAMI GARDA TERDEPAN DI PERBATASAN INDONESIA..
Dan perlu bapak tau.. Bahwa hubungan kami TNI dengan polisi yg ada disana terjalin dgn baik."
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.

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.

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.
