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 su�ered 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 Jakarta’s Industry and Energy o�ce 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 di�erent in each area, depending on the soil condition,” Yusuf E�endi Pohan, the head of Jakarta’s Industry and Energy o�ce, 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 co�ee 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 di�erent 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 co�ee 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 co�ee 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 O�ce.

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 Jakarta’s Environ-mental Agency (BPLHD), said the city had imposed higher tari�s 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 tari�s 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 city’s 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 Jakarta’s Spatial Planning O�ce, also assured that the city’s future plans would take an environmentally friendly approach.

BERLIN - Angela Merkel, the leader of Europe’s richest country, still hoards food. That’s 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 reuni�cation.

The chancellor still does her laundry with an East German detergent, prepares East Germans’ favorite Soljanka soup (made with sausages and pickle juice) — and can’t �ght the urge to stockpile goods she sees at the market.

“Sometimes I can’t stop myself from buying things just because I see them — even when I don’t really need them,” the 56-year-old Merkel told magazine SuperIllu ahead of celebrations on Sunday of the 20th anniver-sary of uni�cation.

“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 it’s 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 uni�cation — like Rotkaep-pchen sparkling wine or Spreewald pickles — and vacationing at their Russian-style dachas in the countryside.

20 Years On, Germany Re�ects on the Evolving Identity of a Reuni�ed 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 e�orts 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 we’re all Germans.”

Merkel called the uni�cation 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 reuni�cation 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 di�culties 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 signi�cant 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 summer’s 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.

“I’m 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. “I’m 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, that’s 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 wasn’t simply a produced of microbial contamination of the bones, or aone-

Ancient Nubians Made Antibiotic BeerNEWS

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 wasn’t 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 e�ects as well: If taken in too large quantities the antibi-otic can also cause iron de�ciency 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 di�erent 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.

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.

CAZBARCazbar Jokes

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 o�cer 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 replied, "Years ago, my wife ran o� with a policeman. I thought you were bringing her back."

"Have a good day, Sir", said the policeman
