Drug users are actually ill people who need help. Rehabilitation is one
of the main things they should get. Instead of punishing drug users in prisons,
the government should provide rehabilitation for them.
Most users are actually victims of persuasive peddlers and they suffer
from consuming the drugs. Therefore, by rehabilitating them, we are actually
helping them out from traps, which they might accidentally step on.
If we only arrest drug users and send them to jail, this doesn't solve the
problem as drug users will still be addicted unless proper rehabilitation is
imposed to them. Providing rehabilitation programs for drug users and forcing
them to participate in the programs is better than only arresting them and
doing nothing to their illness. Only drug dealers, traffickers, and wholesalers
should be imprisoned.
The use of formalin and other dangerous preservatives in food has been
serious problem for three reasons. Firstly, formalin is not for human beings,
but it is for biological specimens and experiments. Formalin in Biology is a
10% solution of formaldehyde in water which is usually used as a disinfectant
or to preserve biological specimens. Thus, it is not for food preservatives. Of
course when it is used for food preservative, it will be very dangerous to
human’s body.
The second reason is that there is no tight control from the government.
This condition makes the people’s health is really in a threat. When the
control is weak and the use of formalin was spread wide all over the
Indonesian regions, and these days it has really happened, the citizen's bodies
will be badly contaminated with the poisons. Fish or food traders still sell
their products which contain formalin and dangerous preservatives. Can you
imagine that our digestive system absorbs the substance that should be for the
human and animal corpses?
Considering the reasons, we can make a conclusion that the use of
formalin and other preservatives is really a serious problem if it is not
resolved immediately.

Indonesian people should value all the different culture to promote unity of the
nation
Therefore, Indonesians should appreciate differences among culture for the following
reasons. Firstly, Indonesia is vulnerable to separation for its archipelago and culture
diversity. Raising tolerance among people is the best way to maintain the unity
among differences. Many ways or cultures of living are equally legal, even if they
are not regarded as normal by some people. If a society claims to be tolerant of
personal choice, then it must respect the personal choice to retain their heritage.
Then, unity of the nation can be preserved.
Secondly, Indonesians must recognize that every culture has different customs and
beliefs. Thus, people are forbidden to make judgments of comparative value, for it is
measuring something unmeasured. A plurality of nations, especially in the modern
era, can allow for cultural development and cultural exchange that benefits both
parties. The cross-cultural understanding among cultures makes the world a better
place and preserves the unity of the nation.
Lastly, raising nationalism is one way to preserve unity of the nation. It is a sense of
fellow feeling between group members. This promotes cooperation and social
cohesion within the group. The sense of social cooperation makes welfare, social
security and medical programs much more likely and stronger.
Cultural differences are sometime a sensitive matter for people. Indonesian people
must know how to deal with a culturally diverse citizenry and then promote unity.
a. Keep away
b. Conserve
c. Observe
d. Damage

20. “even if they are not regarded as normal by some people.” the word

a. People
b. Indonesian’s people
c. Cultures
d. Plurality
