Exactly :)

Yeah broooo, truee

welp, for me, im spoiled but not spoiled to the point of begging and despair if i dont get what i want, sure i have anger issues, but i never get angry if my parents dont get me what i want. i decided to lower my birthday budget, since my parents gave me 200k, and since my parents just bought a new ac, i decided to buy less and instead buy the essentials that i think i need. keep in mind im also an indonesian

He's got a distinct old world charm - well spoken, wears the 'dignified' glasses, neatly parted hair, and has a stoic expression. Don't see that these days with the younger generation.

I think it is shallowness of your mind that you think if he was speaking in an another accent other than Indian, he would have been sounded more efficient. If you will focus on what he is saying, than his accent shouldn't have bothered you.

We indian very patriotic but we hate our education system which not actually anchor education system which enforce by British during colonies rule which teach specially designed in a way that serves their interest to rule on us as colonies therefore they apply practical, research ,invovative base education and no guarantee proper skill based on your interest.

@@harukrentz435 yup, my country ☺ they are kind but because a racist people from other country, now my country turn to like judge other people 😭

I agree and this means that Indonesia has not developed well. Let's say bout every the education curriculum that always changes every time in indonesia depending on whos the minister was that time. Its mean on this veryyyyyyy long time Indonesia still can't find a good learning system process. So, i m sure 80% our country can't grow better until we get the right person one day

Agreed

I do think Indonesia should working on our educational system as one of the main concern of our country. Not only the minister has the responsibility, but truly all of us. Education is fundamental to built our country from every aspects. No matter who we are, we must learn and use our knowledges for good deeds ❤️

Indonesia education system will never get better in a short time at least. or never happen at all. current leader and minister are produced by past education, and future leader and minister are produced by today's education. so it will be an endless process. and we all agree current education is bad. not skeptical but garbage in garbage out. ah one more thing, there's a theory out there, how to sell products easily, sell it to fools. 270 million Indonesians is huge market for any business in this world. no wonder capitalists in this world want this country to remain stupid. That's why I've never blamed the leader of this country, and have never voted. because I know the result will be the same (in terms of major policy especially education). don't believe me? let's see 20 years from now, it won't be much different, or maybe even worse with so much misinformation and distractions from social media.

@@insanelyawesam1420 I like the wierd relationship between the British girl and the Indian guy Gopi, She always laughed when gopi critized anything related to Britain lol I am an Indian and I think British girl stile the show she's unbelievably sharp and knowledgeable

kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hsiVmNxhvbO1dIk.html

@@mastrammeena328 I thought the opposite. Her views regarding the school systems being based on differences in ability were pretty outdated (even for her times) and like Gopi said, the school system she supported actually promoted class differences since the richer students would have greater access to the better-equipped schools (regardless of the few seats reserved for students from poorer economic backgrounds). Gopi had a more progressive outlook on what school systems ought to be like (a mix of the American and Indian school systems) since it promoted the public school system (making schools accessible to all regardless of economic background) while having a rigorous curriculum that allowed students to think for themselves.

Philippine education system should understand this. Instead of telling their students to. Memorize memorize. Memorize. 😅

@@joyeebercades245 i agree for this too even i'm not an Filipinos but still i can't disagree with this

How can you thinking something that isn't being in that storage? Memorising vs thinking is overrated. If there is something worth to explore is to try appreciating how a big idea or perspective gained. Perhaps what you're learn by night before exam is mankind's acquisition of endeavours through years, figure to figure like a relay.

@@arjun2146 i don't understand everything you're trying to say. your english is kinda scuffed sorry😅 /lh also i think what they meant by that is students should do more than just memorize but also seek to really understand, internalize, and even question the knowledge that is provided to them

I'd say Indonesia is getting better, it's just moving at a "steady" pace

Sure it's still kinda relevant...but we have a better educational system than in the 50s..it may not be a drastic change but I would take any changes for the betterment of the education of this country then nothing at all...Like when she said our school doesn't have a library...I think it's different now... most of the school in my hometown have it's own library 🤷 and the literacy rate is obviously much much more better than in the 50s.

Well said

@@amitbinjola1451 yeahh i trully amaze

Can't agree more with you

Yeah, it reminds to my grandma, how was very difficult only to search for information, so much gratefull we are who live in these days

Yeah,back in the past it's so difficult to get education from school,No google,Or technology that we have today.

They were the best in their countries. If a similar program is done today, the intellectual teenagers will also be ferreted out and I’m sure they will stand toe to toe with this group. We tend to compare them to the average teenagers we see on social media today and that not seem fair.

@@johannramsay Can't blame the people if they see it that way. The current education system is more concerned about pushing ideologies rather than actual education of the youth. It is to be expected that the availability of technology and sophisticated teaching techniques, not to mention the better opportunities and more freedom the people currently enjoy, should produce high value students and graduates, and I have to agree that it is unfair to compare because despite all these advantages that the present generation has, watching the videos of students from the 1950s speaking, thinking and conversing about the serious issues of their time, it clearly shows that they are far more fruitful in terms of intellectual, academic, social and behavioral development. For example, in the past most educated people of the world agreed that the fall of the Berlin Wall is crucial in proving the long debated point that communism will eventually fail itself because of its detachment to the reality and socio-cultural and psychological, especially the economic needs of its people. Today, there are students from campuses and universities in the USA, Canada, even in AUS that promotes the idea that capitalism is the ultimate evil in society, but when asked questions they can't even accurately define socialism and it's difference from communism without interchanging the definition of both. This is a failure of the current education system. Back then, facts and evidence are the foundations from where every "good" ideas are built. Today, feelings are valued the most over reason, and telling the truth is hate speech. Here is the painful part. Let's say for example that the similar program is to be implemented today. It'll fail. Why? SJWs, modern feminism, snowflakes and the like, will brand the program as "fascist". Now, if you are familiar with the ideas these groups support and promote, you'll understand.

@syanin dita and back then only 5% of us who could read lol she was among the top class family tbh.

bizarre isn't it? If she can speak english and went to the US for education in 1957 she must be a very privileged person, yet still hard to even afford a wrist watch.

So basically she was not indonesian yet

@@adolffranz9502 she is indonesian, please read it again.. this was held in 1957, while indonesian independence day is in 1945. What the main comment means is Indonesia still have a lot to do to bettering the country post-colonization. Thank you.

@@ivalicetifalucis agree. Even from my grandfather's story, not all Indonesian at that time can speak English very well. The elders only understand their ethnic language or dutch (if you lucky enough to have formal education-or at least your dutch neighbour teach you how to speak dutch)

@@annoyedman5884 I don't think it has correlation with my comments. I want to say that even the rich people at that time can't buy watch, if you're rich enough you'll buy what you can buy. She said in the video that her mother can't buy watch to her, not buy new watch that'll change her old watch

Even the gap exist in Indonesian education between schools in city and schools in village are so huge. Seriously, students in secluded village even have to walk so far or through dangerous path just to go to school for that day.

@Ajeng S. Arindita That's true. The English level they taught to my second cousin who lives outside Java is probably 3-4 level lower than in big cities in Java Island. Even in the same city, the public school book taught elementary 2 level English to their junior high school, while international schools have taught Singapore curriculum level English to their elementary students. The public school students learns greetings and introduction in reading passages with non standard or broken English in middle school, while first graders in international schools has been introduced to the basic of simple present and simple past tenses. That's just one or two examples. How can they compete in the future with such gap in education?
