JAKARTA - To achieve growth in the gross domestic products at
seven percent by 2012, the Indonesian government must advance the
capital expenditure twice as much as this year's budget.
The government this year have just spent infrastructure
expenditure by 3.5 percent of the GDP. "It's still too low," said
World Bank Lead Financial Economist, P.S. Srinivas, today, Sept
30.
If the government can double the budget, the infrastructure
growth in Indonesia may get to a level as it did before the 1998
crisis. "Indonesia may exceed China," he said.
However, Srinivas said that the government cannot depend much on
private sector to
boost infrastructure development.
In addition, private sector may contribute to 20-30 percent of
the required infrastructure development. "Private sector will not
set up infrastructure in neither Papua nor East Nusa Tenggara," he
said.
Economists estimated that the Indonesian economy will be one of
the world's superiors next year.
Fauzi Ichsan, a senior economist at the Standard Chartered Bank,
believed that Indonesia's GDP would reach 6.2 percent late this
year.

JAKARTA - The Jakarta administration will work on developing
mass rapid transit (MRT), which is estimated to be in operation in
2016.
However, issues on such natural disasters as ooding and
earthquake surface. In addition, some MRT stations will be located
under the ground. PT MRT Jakarta, the project developer, guarantees
that the MRT project will endure earthquake and ooding.
According to him, those issues on ooding, earthquake and weak
soil may be anticipated by applying technical engineering like
levelling up entrances to the stations, soil improvement, and
building construction.
The physical development of the MRT project is about to start as
the project auction will be initiated by late November 2010. "The
Jakarta MRT will be capable of carrying 220 thousand passengers per
day," said PT MRT President Director, Tribudi Rahardjo.
Based on the MRT blue-print, there are 13 stations that will be
established. Dukuh Atas station, situated at the center of the
Indonesian capital, will be the linkage of various modes of
MRT.
The station will be set up by implement-ing transit-oriented
development concept. 13 stations are planned to take place along
the routes.

NEWS
JAKARTA - Muara Baru, North Jakarta, and Cenkareng, West
Jakarta, have experienced the worst land subsidence in the capital
over the past eight years, according to the city
administration.
Muara Baru has suered by far the worst, having sunk 116
centimeters.
Cenkareng has subsided by 65 centime-ters, while Kelapa Gading
in North Jakarta has descended 47 centimeters.
The results come from a study of 60 points in the capital by
Herry Andreas, a consultant for Jakartas Industry and Energy oce
and an earth scientist at the Bandung Institute of Technology
(ITB).
The area around Jalan MH. Thamrin, the National Monument and
Gambir in Central Jakarta has declined 15 centime-ters, while
Cibubur and Kebayoran in South Jakarta have dipped by 11
centi-meters.
The land subsidence is dierent in each area, depending on the
soil condition, Yusuf Eendi Pohan, the head of Jakartas Industry
and Energy oce, said on Friday.
He said the subsidence in the capital was caused by four
factors: massive extraction of groundwater, building weight,
natural consolidation of soil layers and tectonic movements.
The administration, though, was quick to assure residents that
they were in no danger of one day nding themselves under water.

Paris. The Asian palm civet, a small nocturnal carnivore famous
for excreting coee beans prized by gourmets, in fact comprises
three species, French scientists said on Wednesday.
Instead of one species, until now known as Paradoxurus
hermaphro-ditus, there should be three, according to molecular
biologists at the Museum of National History in Paris.
The species have developed sepa-rately in dierent habitats
north-eastern India; Southeast Asia, including Indonesia; and parts
of Borneo and the Philippines.
Tree-loving and fruit-eating, palm civets are arguably best
known for a smooth-tasting Indonesian coee known as Kopi Luwak.
Its beans come from the ripest fruits eaten by the civet, which
are claimed to pass through its diges-tive tract unscathed,
enhanced by enzymes.
Retrieved from the faeces, the beans are roasted before being
sold for up to 500 dollars per kilogram. Only 200 kilos of the coee
are produced each year.

Jakarta will not drown, that is unless we sleep and do nothing,
said Putu Indiana, deputy head of the Public Works Oce.
He said the administration was rehabili-tating rivers and
streams throughout the city, which would improve the ow of water to
the sea, thus helping prevent further subsidence.
Peni Susanti, head of Jakartas Environ-mental Agency (BPLHD),
said the city had imposed higher taris on ground-water to limit
extraction, which contrib-utes 17.5 percent of land subsidence.
Peni said there had been a drop in groundwater use since the
higher taris were introduced last year.
In 2008, 21.88 million cubic meters of groundwater was
extracted, 18.16 million cubic meters in 2009 and 8.58 million
cubic meters through Septem-ber this year.
Muhammad Tauchid Tjakra Amidjaja, the citys assistant for
development and the environment, said other action was being taken
to prevent Jakarta from drowning.
They included optimizing the supply of tap water to further
discourage ground-water extraction and a ood mitigation plan that
included the rehabilitation of water channels and dams.
Wiryatmoko, the head of Jakartas Spatial Planning Oce, also
assured that the citys future plans would take an environmentally
friendly approach.

BERLIN - Angela Merkel, the leader of Europes richest country,
still hoards food. Thats how much power Cold War-era habits still
hold over Germans like Merkel who grew up in the communist east, a
full two decades after reunication.
The chancellor still does her laundry with an East German
detergent, prepares East Germans favorite Soljanka soup (made with
sausages and pickle juice) and cant ght the urge to stockpile goods
she sees at the market.
Sometimes I cant stop myself from buying things just because I
see them even when I dont really need them, the 56-year-old Merkel
told magazine SuperIllu ahead of celebrations on Sunday of the 20th
anniver-sary of unication.
This inclination to hoard is deeply ingrained in me, because in
the past, in times of scarcity, you took what you could get, Merkel
said, referring to former times under communism when people would
stand in line for hours to buy a few bananas or oranges.
Germany was divided into communist East Germany and capitalist
West Germany following the defeat of the Nazis in World War II.
The eastern German Democratic Republic formally joined the
western Federal Republic of Germany on Oct. 3, 1990, after months
of peaceful protests had brought down the ailing communist system
in the East.
The reunited country has emerged as the economic powerhouse of
Europe and a leader on the world stage.
But while boundaries have blurred over time, many Ossis and
Wessis the nicknames for those born and raised in the east and west
still seem to stick to old mind-sets and keep to themselves. The
two increas-ingly live side-by-side in German cities, but its still
relatively rare for social circles to cross the east-west
divide.
Ossis are considered more insular, cherishing the few East
German products that have survived the unication like Rotkaep-pchen
sparkling wine or Spreewald pickles and vacationing at their
Russian-style dachas in the countryside.
20 Years On, Germany Reects on the Evolving Identity of a
Reunied Peoplesource : thejakartaglobe.com Kirsten Grieshabe
West Germans, on the other hand, are seen as more
outward-looking, gravitating toward new trends in music, art,
literature and cuisine.
Despite eorts to adjust the standard of living in East and West,
many inequalities remain and East Germans are still
underrep-resented in many parts of society.
While Merkel is from the East, there are no Ossis in her
cabinet. Not a single football club from the East plays in the
national Bundesliga league, and few former East Germans have made
it to the higher ranks of big companies.
It is probably going to take another two or three generations
until we all will say again We are one people, said Doreen Kinzel,
a 39-year-old East German who moved to the West right after the
fall of the Berlin Wall and now lives in Berlin.
Nonetheless, we should not constantly talk about all the things
that separate us in the end were all Germans.
Merkel called the unication a stroke of luck and said the
ongoing reconstruction of East Germany largely at the expense of
the former West Germany has been a success.
After the reunication there was a certain sense of foreignness,
because daily life in the former East German states was completely
turned inside out everything from the shops to the bureaucracy to
the working world, Merkel said.
I think it has been a tremendous feat on the part of East
Germans since 1990, to adapt to everything changing.
Despite the diculties in overcoming four decades of separation
and opposing political systems, Germans are slowly coming to feel
as one again.
In a poll conducted by Forsa Institute on Wednesday, 48 percent
of Germans said easterners and westerners see themselves as one
people again.
Seven years ago, only 31 percent believed this. Still, 47
percent said that what divides them is still more signicant than
what unites them today.
Germans from both sides of the former Iron Curtain were united
in an explosion of national pride when they hosted the soccer World
Cup in 2006.
And during this summers World Cup, utter-ing German ags were
ubiquitous from Dresden in the East to Duesseldorf in the West.
Among the biggest problems that plague the former East now are
unemployment and a constant decline in population with many heading
to the west to search for jobs.
Despite the better than expected economic upswing, unemployment
in the former East German states stands at 11 percent compared with
6.2 percent in the former West.

Chemical analysis of the bones of ancient Sudanese Nubians who
lived nearly 2000 years ago shows they were ingesting the
antibiotic tetracycline on a regular basis, likely from a special
brew of beer. The nd is the strongest yet that antibiotics were
previously discovered by humans before Alexander Fleming discovered
penicillin in 1928.
Im going to ask Alexander Fleming to hand back his Nobel Prize,
joked chem-ist Mark Nelson, who works on develop-ing new
tetracyclines at Paratek Pharmaceuticals and is lead author of the
paper published June in the Ameri-can Journal of Physical
Anthropology.
Nelson found large amounts of tetracy-cline in the bones tested
from the ancient population, which lived in the Nubian kingdom
(present day Sudan) between 250 A.D. and 550 A.D. and left no
written record.
The bones of these ancient people were saturated with
tetracycline, show-ing that they had been taking it for a long
time, Nelson said in a press release August 30. Im convinced that
they had
Boulder. There might have been other populations that were also
doing the same thing, anywhere that there were these microbes. This
is going to drive other scientists to start this search, and that
is incredibly important.
Scientists have suspected this popula-tion was ingesting
tetracycline since they rst noticed a orescent yellow-green
appearance of the bones under ultraviolet light, indicative of
tetracy-cline.
When we reported that in 1981, it was met with a lot of
skepticism, said anthropologist George Armelagos of Emory
University, who made the original discovery and is co-author of
this new study. If you were unwrapping an Egyptian mummy and
suddenly it had Ray-Ban sunglasses on it, thats what it was like
with us.
Tetracycline latches on to calcium and gets deposited in bones,
which is how it can be detected it in fossils. The ultravio-let
light technique said little about how much tetracycline there was
in the bone, and it was hard to convince others it wasnt simply a
produced of microbial contamination of the bones, or aone-
Ancient Nubians Made Antibiotic BeerNEWS
5Issue #17 - 4th October 2010 - BuGils bi-Weekly

Armelagos, who specializes in recon-structing ancient diets,
proposed that the Nubians made the tetracycline in their beer.
There is evidence they knew how to make it, he says. Tetracycline
is produced by a soil bacteria called strep-tomyces, which is how
it was discovered by modern society in the 1940s. Strepto-myces
thrives in warm, arid regions such as that of ancient Nubia, and
likely contaminated a batch of beer.
They must have known how to propa-gate the beer because they
were doing it to make wine, Nelson says. There was also so much of
it in their bones that it is near impossible that the
tetracycline-laced beer was a uke event.To make sure that making
the antibiotic beer was possible, Armelagos had his graduate
students give it a try.
What they were making wasnt like a Bud Light but a cereal gruel,
Armelagos said. My students said that it was not bad, but it is
like a sour porridge substance. The ancient people would have
drained the liquid o and also eaten the gruel.
The Nubians likely noticed the antibiot-ics cured them of
bacterial infection. It may have had negative eects as well: If
taken in too large quantities the antibi-otic can also cause iron
deciency because it latches on to the iron in the body.
Streptomyces produces a golden-colored bacterial colony that
would have oated on top of the beer and likely encouraged its
propagation. Gold was revered by the ancient cultures.
When and why the antibiotic beer secret was lost is a mystery.
It is not the rst technology to disappear with the disap-pearance
of cultures. Armelagos is continuing to look for the tetracycline
in the bones of dierent cultures. He says he has already found
preliminary evidence it is in bones of people who date to as late
as 1300 to 1400 A.D.
Armelagos hopes this nd might also help explain why animals have
been found with antibiotic resistance in Northern Africa where
there is no previ-ous evidence of antibiotics being used.
the science of fermentation under control and were purposely
producing the drug.
This discovery will provide a whole new framework for
understanding the relationship between microbes and antibiotics,

Nelson was able to solve the problem by dissolving the bones in
hydrogen ouride, the nastiest acid on the planet, he said. He was
able to clearly identify the amount and identity of the
tetracy-cline in the bones. It was in all the bones, including
those of a four-year-old child.

A senior citizen drove his brand new BMW Z4 convertible out of
the car salesroom. Taking o down the motorway, he oored it to
160mph, enjoying the wind blowing through what little hair he had
left.
"Amazing!" he thought as he ew down the M1, enjoying pushing the
pedal to the metal even more. Looking in his rear view mirror, he
saw a police car behind him, blue lights ashing and siren
blaring.
"I can get away from him - no problem!" thought the elderly
nutcase as he oored it to 180mph, then mph then 240mph. Suddenly,
he thought, "What on earth am I doing? I'm too old for this
nonsense!" So he pulled over to the side of the road and waited for
the police car to catch up with him.
Pulling in behind him, the police ocer walked up the driver's
side of the BMW, looked at his watch and said, "Sir, my shift ends
in 10 minutes. Today is Friday and I'm taking o for the weekend. If
you can give me a reason why you were speeding that I've never
heard before, I'll let you go.."
The old man, looked very seriously at the policeman, and
