REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, The movement to save the river
River has spawned a large royal Nusantara civilization. For example, the kingdom of Srivijaya, based on the banks of the Musi River and Majapahit kingdom centered near the Brantas River. Both rivers have become a (mute) witness of the glory and collapse of Srivijaya and Majapahit at once.
River is now a waste container for the life of the poor and exacerbated by industrial waste and waste of modern life.
Rescuing the river means to build a new civilization, the love of nature and the poor as well as or by way of eradicating corruption from upstream to downstream. It should start by making big steps in the form of "policies" as an umbrella and follow step guidance. Not only that, but not least is to do "virtues" in the form of concrete big and small step in the form of productive empowerment, inclusion and integrated at once.
It need a movement to save river, from upstream to downstream, involving interested multi-parties, from the government, politicians, businessmen, academics, the media, NGOs, small people and of course the KPK (Corruption Eradication of Corruption).
In short, overcoming floods should involve efforts to eradicate corruption from upstream to downstream!
