Maka, menulislah untuk berbagi. Agar ceritamu abadi.
Pada akhirnya Internet juga bersifat politis sebagaimana banyak hal lainnya.
Peringatan Hari Hak Asasi Manusia (HAM) tahun ini seharusnya menjadi waktu tepat untuk mengingatkan Negara tentang pentingnya perlindungan terhadap hak-hak digital. Agar mimpi bahwa teknologi informasi dan komunikasi bisa menjadi alat untuk mendorong demokratisasi tak hanya tinggal ilusi.
A dark cloud glided slowly over Tulamben beach that quiet morning. Two local women walked along the shoreline carrying scuba tanks on their heads.
They belonged to a group of local porters, who carry all the heavy equipment for scuba divers.
Tulamben is one of the island’s most favorite diving spots. Around 20 meters from the shoreline, the famous World War II’s wreck of the USAT Liberty lies on Tulamben’s sandy bottom, waiting for the divers.

Drug users in Asia and Pacific regions face discrimination and limited access to proper medical treatment since many of these countries still regard human rights as minor problems, a forum was told Thursday.
“It requires comprehensive policy changes at the national, regional and international levels to enable these persons to receive needed medications and treatments,” said a speaker in a forum on Injecting Drug Users (IDU), with the theme Reform: Toward Human Rights Drug Policy, in Sanur, as part of the 9th International Congress on AIDS in the Asia-Pacific.
“Ada mayat di kolam lapangan Puputan Badung,” kata suara di telepon seluler Putu Sujana Kamis awal Maret lalu. Sujana sedang duduk-duduk di depan gedung rektorat Institut Seni Indonesia (ISI) Denpasar di jalan Nusa Indah, Denpasar Timur. Ada demo mahasiswa dan dosen di kampus itu menuntut pergantian rektor.
“Demonya tidak asik. Cuma begitu-begitu saja,” kata Sujana. Maka, Sujana segera pergi dari kampus ISI setelah ada telepon tersebut. Dia naik sepeda motor Shogunnya di antara lalu lintas Denpasar. Di antara gerimis, dia menyalip motor dan mobil sepanjang jalan.
