of every kind. Not only is it a tasty treat
for many, chocolate also boasts certain
health benefits when consumed in
moderation. Dark chocolate the healthiest
variety promotes physical health and even

moods and stress.

The recently issued policy on low-
cost green cars (LCGCs), enabling people
in lower classes to purchase family
vehicles, has sparked controversy among
people, especially those in major cities
such as Jakarta.
It cannot be denided that any policy
have two impact – both positive and
negative. Some have applauded the ide,
saying that it is a good policy, enabling
more people to own cars. As a result, the
state’s income from taxes levied on the
automotive sector will grow and country’s
middle class will be able to afford cars.
Moreover, motorcycylist might start
driving cheap cars, preventing the entry of
low-cost cars from abroad or neighbouring
countries such as Thailand.
However, some others claim that it
will create more problems such as
increased traffic congestion in the city and
higher fuel consumption.
The implementation of the cheap car
programme has caused a chain reaction
and additional efforts is needed to mitigate
the negative impact.
Therefore, relevant ministries such
as the Ministry or Transportation, Ministry
of public Works and the Ministry of
Eberagy and Mineral Resources will be the
effected government agencies who must
strive to overcome the negative effects of
this cheap car programme.
Basically, there is nothing wrong in
creating an opportunity for people to own
cars, but traffic in the city should also be
considered by the stakeholders.

There is something people should
know before watching this movie, and that
is that takes place from 2002 to 2014. I
grew up in that same generation, so as I
watched this movie I felt like I was

experience that. An even for those who
weren’t children growing up in those years
will still feel the sense of goingback in
time.
The plot is very simple; what does
it mean to grow up, becomes an adult, and
live? And as the years goes by, it become
apparent that Mason is struggling to find
his place in life. Though there few
struggles he encounters and somethematic
material overall the movie is hilarious and
real. From Richard Linklater’s previous
films, I’ve noticed that the dialogue all
feels real. And it is so well done in this
film.
Speaking of Linklate, I see an
Oscar nomination for directing coming his
way, I see an Oscar nomination for

for Q&A on Boyhood, one of the things he
said that struck audience was that he
though it was funny that people who saw
“Boyhood” told him he improved as a
director .this was funny to him because
one of the first rules he mad before
himiling in 2002 was that he could not
change as a director for the sake of the
movie to have no continuity errors. The
only improvement going on is the superb
acting from Ethan Hawke, Patricia
Arquette, and (of course) Ellar Coltrane.
With probably the best ending I’ve
ever seen for a movie and a story guided
by a talented director, “Boyhood” is the
most powerfull and unique coming-offage
film ever made and it it will be proclaimed
as a classic for the years to come.
