00:00:00only two classes
00:00:0332 x 2 meaning 64 up until
00:00:07now, in the third phase, we
00:00:08named Taufiq Hidayat, who was have received 30 new student candidates. There are probably many
00:00:12reasons. Perhaps the first one is related to the age
00:00:15of children entering elementary school for this year. Perhaps
00:00:18it has decreased compared to last year, so
00:00:22the quota, which was the same as last year, was not
00:00:26met. Near here, there are public elementary
00:00:29schools that perhaps from the perspective
00:00:33of facilities are more complete and larger, such as
00:00:37SDN Grogol Utara 09 and also SDN Grogol
00:00:40Utara 03. Perhaps that is also a
00:00:43reason why parents choose to
00:00:46send their children to those schools with facilities that are perhaps
00:00:49relatively more complete. Meanwhile,
00:00:52at SDN Grogol Utara 01, for this academic year,
00:00:56the school targeted two student groups with a total of
00:01:0064 students but only accepted 21
00:01:03new students. The school states that this condition
00:01:07is influenced by access to the school and a decrease in the number
00:01:10of school-aged children in the area. The decline
00:01:13in the number of students has even been happening since
00:01:172023, and there are still no signs
00:01:20of it increasing. Previously, there were many students here, almost
00:01:24500. Now there are only
00:01:26196 students. Parents
00:01:31think like this, meaning if
00:01:33later who will take them because the access is far,
00:01:37the access is far, and then here, it's
00:01:41a complex, what kind of complex? It's a
00:01:44complex name. So there are no students from this area, except
00:01:47for a few in the back. And
00:01:51it's not possible for them to go to school here, right? And here too,
00:01:54there are no small children. Our strategy for
00:01:57recruiting students, yes, there is. For example,
00:02:01we gather the committee for each
00:02:04class and urge them
00:02:07to register their siblings or younger relatives here.
00:02:11Then, whenever there are certain events,
00:02:14we showcase
00:02:17what is available at this school, what we can do, for example,
00:02:20extracurricular activities, dancing, marawis, then silat,
00:02:24right? Scouts, we showcase them as an attraction
00:02:28so that... students can enroll
00:02:32in our school.
00:02:34Responding to this, the government plans to conduct
00:02:37regrouping or merging schools into one as
00:02:41a solution to overcome the declining number of students.
00:02:44But how do parents react?
00:02:48Don't. It's better to be here by ourselves. If it's here, it's safe. If
00:02:51we combine them, it will be chaotic again. It's better this way. Too many students,
00:02:55it's too complicated. What if some of them are naughty? We don't know if there are too many
00:02:59students. Right? There are mischievous ones. We are afraid of what they will do.
00:03:03It's better this way, safe. Hmm, if you ask
00:03:06me, it's not necessary to merge them.
00:03:10It's more comfortable in our own school compared to
00:03:14merging them. Firstly, it's
00:03:17close to home. If it's further away, because
00:03:20of our transportation situation, viewers, the new
00:03:24academic year has now officially begun, but behind
00:03:27that, there is a contradictory situation. This happened in elementary
00:03:31schools nationwide. Indonesia has around
00:03:34148 to 149,000 elementary
00:03:38schools. In the academic year 2024-2025,
00:03:41most of them, or 86.75%,
00:03:45are public elementary schools. In the odd
00:03:48semester, viewers, in 2024-2025
00:03:52last year, the number of elementary school students reached
00:03:5523.93
00:03:58million students. Well, however, that number shows a downward
00:04:02trend compared to 2016
00:04:05previously, which reached
00:04:0825.6 million students. In these 8
00:04:12years, the number of elementary school students decreased by about
00:04:141.7 million students. The decrease
00:04:18in the number of children at elementary school age has an impact
00:04:22on the enrollment of new students in
00:04:24out like a colorful blanket various regions. On one hand, some schools still
00:04:27conduct strict selections due to high demand. But on the other hand,
00:04:30there are also schools that have a shortage
00:04:33of applicants.
00:04:35Meanwhile, the Minister of Primary and Secondary Education, Abdul Muti,
00:04:39stated that his party has collected data on public schools that
00:04:42have a student population below 60 to 100
00:04:46people. Based on the education basic data or
00:04:49Dapodik, the government will also coordinate with the Ministry of Home
00:04:53Affairs to prepare a comprehensive
00:04:55solution.
00:04:58Well, we already have the data. We will discuss
00:05:01it with the Ministry of Home Affairs
00:05:04to find solutions for schools where
00:05:07the number of students is below 60 and below
00:05:10100. Now
00:05:12local governments have already carried out
00:05:15mergers, especially for elementary schools that are close to each other and
00:05:19have very few students. But perhaps this needs strengthening
00:05:23from the central level. Why do we have to discuss it with
00:05:26the Ministry of Home Affairs? Firstly, the authority to organize education,
00:05:30in accordance with existing laws, is for
00:05:33kindergarten, elementary school, and junior high school by the city district government,
00:05:37and for high school, vocational school, SLP and provincial government.
00:05:40Well, its structure.
00:05:43This government, the city district, is under the Ministry of Home Affairs.
00:05:46So if there is a policy that can be structurally
00:05:50implemented by the regional government based on
00:05:54policy, then perhaps appropriate steps
00:05:57can be taken. The phenomenon of decreasing student numbers in
00:06:01several elementary schools is not considered to happen without reason. Education
00:06:05observer Retno Listiarti states
00:06:08that this condition is the result of various factors, ranging from
00:06:12demographic shifts, population migration to buffer
00:06:15areas, to changes in parental preferences, who
00:06:18now increasingly consider the quality and character
00:06:21of education when choosing a school for their children. She also
00:06:25highlights that the phenomenon of student shortages could actually
00:06:28be anticipated earlier.
00:06:32Elementary schools, in my opinion, are not too surprising
00:06:35because for the past 3 years,
00:06:38elementary schools
00:06:40have had a lot of public elementary schools that
00:06:44have students, and the regional governments have already carried out regrouping. Regrouping means
00:06:47merging but if we look at
00:06:51the impact, if there is only one student, it's like
00:06:54a private class, right? Because there are some that only accept one student,
00:06:58then there are some that accept up to three or two students.
00:07:02That also exists. In public schools, it's not a loss
00:07:05because in public schools, the teachers are paid
00:07:09by the government, right? They still have to
00:07:12continue, but for the teachers, it has an impact.
00:07:15Actually, I think it should have been anticipated,
00:07:19there are statistical calculations, right? Firstly, we can also
00:07:23know from the Dapodik data so that if
00:07:26for example, it has already been estimated, then there is no need
00:07:30to accept new students in that school
00:07:33so that they can finish with the existing ones first.
00:07:37So that when transferring, it is not
00:07:40too difficult. They should have data
00:07:44so that both public and private schools in the area
00:07:48are ready and this decrease in the number of elementary
00:07:51school-aged children, or those who want to enter
00:07:54elementary school, then the chance of
00:07:58a student shortage is high. It can actually be calculated.
00:08:00The phenomenon of decreasing student numbers in several
00:08:04elementary schools is a new challenge for the world of education. It not only
00:08:08requires short-term solutions like regrouping, but also
00:08:12planning.
00:08:42The graphics and the challenge of equitable education quality in
00:08:45Indonesia. Therefore, the government needs to prepare appropriate policies
00:08:49to address this. From Jakarta, the Metro
00:08:53Timur team.
00:08:57Other information will be available soon. Stay with us in Metro
00:09:00Siang.
00:09:07Supported by the new recipe for Mi Sedap Kari Kental Special, the curry is even more
00:09:10special, try it.
00:10:59on Metro Siang and viewers, this is the afternoon news segment.
00:11:02Let's look at the first information regarding the quick action of police
00:11:06officers who successfully rescued a premature baby in the
00:11:10Jatinangor, Sumedang, West Java area. Officers evacuated the baby after
00:11:14the ambulance carrying it experienced a flat tire
00:11:17on the road.
00:11:32Viewers, this is an amateur video showing a number of
00:11:35Satlantas Polores Sumedang members swiftly carrying out
00:11:38a baby evacuation. This heroic act
00:11:42occurred in front of the IPDN Campus Jatinangor while officers were
00:11:45conducting routine patrols. Officers
00:11:48found an ambulance stopped on the shoulder of the road due to
00:11:51a flat right front tire. After hitting something.
00:12:38Next, we will see Melissa Sunjaya's artwork, which
00:12:42collaborates with historian Petery to revive
00:12:46the memory of the Java War through an art project titled
00:12:491830. Melissa Sunjaya's collection of works
00:12:53not only evokes history but also invites
00:12:57the younger generation to undertake decolonization
00:12:59of thought.
00:13:04Based on historical records of the Java War, local brand
00:13:07Tulisan processes visual archival material from the
00:13:11Dutch Rijksmuseum into functional clothing and accessory
00:13:14products. Through collaboration with historian
00:13:17Petery, this approach is deliberately taken so that historical
00:13:20values can be used by the community in their daily
00:13:24activities. When first exhibited at
00:13:27Dutch Design Week in Eindhoven, Netherlands,
00:13:30this art collection sparked an emotional dialogue about the shared
00:13:34history between Indonesia and the Netherlands. The use
00:13:37of traditional fabric mediums and fabric patterns serves as
00:13:40a bridge for communication as well as a reflection of cultural identity from
00:13:44the past. Through the 1830 project, the hope
00:13:48is that the younger generation will not only enjoy the aesthetics of the design, but also
00:13:51be encouraged to learn more about history.
00:14:16Next, viewers, a carpet of hydrangeas in full bloom
00:14:19covers the mountainous area of Guizhou, Southwest China,
00:14:23presenting a fairytale-like scenery. This beautiful garden is a magnet
00:14:27for tourists due to the presence of natural decorations
00:14:30and tame sika
00:14:31deer.
00:14:37Viewers, millions of hydrangea petals bloom beautifully in
00:14:41the Guizhou Plum Blossom Garden.
00:14:44Shades of blue, pink, purple, and white stretch
00:14:49over the hilly landscape. Visitors are seen crowding the
00:14:53pathways and climbing the stairs surrounded by a sea
00:14:56of flowers just to take photos. This
00:15:0067-hectare garden has more than 70 varieties
00:15:03of hydrangeas. Interestingly, the color of these flowers can change
00:15:07naturally depending on the pH level of the surrounding soil.
00:15:11Not only about flowers, another attraction of this garden is the presence
00:15:14of sika deer roaming freely. Because these
00:15:17sika deer are so tame, tourists nickname this
00:15:21place "Mini Nara of Guizhou."
00:15:25This beautiful natural phenomenon usually lasts throughout the flowering season, from
00:15:28May to
00:15:29October.
00:16:06Next, let's turn to Hong Kong. Viewers, hundreds of cat lovers from
00:16:10all over the city gathered at the annual Hong Kong Cat
00:16:13Expo. Carrying a unique cowboy or wild west theme,
00:16:17this exhibition presents various beauty competitions and
00:16:20hundreds of accessory stalls for
00:16:22pets.
00:16:31The lively and festive atmosphere was visible at the Hong Kong Convention
00:16:34and Exhibition Center. Visitors who came
00:16:38saw firsthand the unique cowboy-themed
00:16:41decorations throughout the entire expo area. Visitors could see
00:16:45various cat breeds in colorful costumes, as well as
00:16:49cats relaxing in strollers. Besides the exhibition,
00:16:52this event also became a shopping paradise because it presented
00:16:55hundreds of food stalls, toys, and special accessories for
00:16:59cats. One of the main attractions was
00:17:02the CFA Championship Cat Show. In this
00:17:05competition, international judges
00:17:07judged cats based on strict standards from the American
00:17:11Cat Association. Winning cats were not only judged on their perfect
00:17:15physique, such as head and ear shape, but also
00:17:19had to be healthy, energetic, and have an interactive winning
00:17:22aura. This event, which lasted for 3 days, also

00:21:01to trigger drought in several areas, disrupting the agricultural sector and
00:21:04the availability of clean water for the community. Amidst these conditions,
00:21:08farmers face the threat of crop failure, while the distribution
00:21:12of clean water aid continues to be carried out to meet the needs of affected
00:21:15residents. For more information, stay tuned with
00:21:18Oma.
00:21:34The prolonged dry season has caused 1084 hectares
00:21:38of rice fields in Polewali Mandar Regency, West Sulawesi, to experience
00:21:41drought. Agricultural department data shows that the affected
00:21:44land is spread across several sub-districts, including Binuang,
00:21:48Matakali, Mapili, and Tapango.
00:21:50In Pakandoang Hamlet, Kujang Village, around 50 hectares of rainfed
00:21:54rice fields are confirmed to have experienced crop failure after rice plants, which were
00:21:58about 2 months old, died due to lack
00:22:01of water supply. This condition has caused farmers to suffer losses
00:22:05of millions of rupiah per person because planting costs, tractor rental,
00:22:08fertilizer, and other operational costs have been incurred. The farmers
00:22:12hope that the government will immediately build boreholes and irrigation networks
00:22:15to reduce the impact of drought during the dry season.
00:22:19The impact. Yesterday, there was no rain here, sir, so there was
00:22:22indeed a lack of water. So one
00:22:26solution is to have a borehole here because there is no water that can
00:22:29be pumped. Right? It can't
00:22:32be
00:22:34this. The same condition, sir, how is it here?
00:22:37If the condition of the rice fields cannot
00:22:41be saved,
00:22:43then it is certain to fail, certain to
00:22:46panic. El Nino has caused
00:22:50rice fields in Lebak Regency, Banten to experience drought due to
00:22:53drying irrigation channels. This condition forces
00:22:57farmers to harvest rice earlier even though it is not yet harvest
00:23:01season, to reduce greater losses. In Cibungur Village,
00:23:04Rangkas Bitung Timur Village, the harvest yield has drastically decreased because
00:23:08many rice grains are empty. Even one farmer claims
00:23:11his harvest production has decreased by almost 70%
00:23:15compared to the previous season. In addition to the lack of water supply, pest
00:23:19attacks have also
00:23:25worsened the condition of the crops. The farmers hope that the government will immediately provide solutions such as improving the irrigation system and providing water sources so that
00:23:29crop failure due to drought will not happen again.
00:23:32It's declining, declining. Why, what's the factor?
00:23:35Oh, so the results are down by how many percent
00:23:38compared to before? How many percent? Around
00:23:4270%, 70%. Oh, a drastic drop.
00:23:46The results are bad now. Bad. So the results are bad.
00:23:51Because of what, sir? Not enough
00:23:55water. Oh, the TNI, together with PDAM Kota
00:23:58Semarang, distributed 10,000 liters of clean water, or two
00:24:01tankers, to residents affected by drought in Jabungan Village,
00:24:05Banyumanik District, Semarang City, Central Java. This aid was focused on
00:24:09RW4, which is the most affected area. Meanwhile,
00:24:13overall, around 1000 people in RW 3, 4,
00:24:16and 5 experienced a water crisis due to wells and
00:24:50widespread dry conditions during the ongoing dry season. In addition to burning
00:24:53hundreds of hectares of land, forest and land fires also claimed lives,
00:24:57triggered haze, and hindered extinguishing efforts on
00:25:00the ground.
00:25:04Forest and land fires in the Mount Bromo savanna area continue to spread
00:25:07due to strong winds and dry vegetation during the dry
00:25:11season. The fire, which previously burned the Bantengan Hill area in
00:25:14Lumajang Regency, has now reached the border of the Watangan Valley
00:25:18savanna or the habis hill in Probolinggo Regency, East
00:25:22Java. A joint team, consisting of TNI, Polri,
00:25:25BPBD, the Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park Agency,
00:25:28and residents, continues to try to extinguish the fire using
00:25:32simple equipment because the terrain is difficult to access.
00:25:35Residents also use gebyok made from tree trunks to hold
00:25:39back the fire. As of now, the burnt area is estimated
00:25:43to be 50 hectares and still has the potential to increase because
00:25:46the flames have not yet been controlled. They tried
00:25:50to extinguish it, but because the wind was
00:25:53strong, the fire kept spreading, right, sir, because
00:25:56of the strong wind. The wind was strong.
00:26:00The wind was strong. Yesterday, a forest
00:26:04and land fire in Matan Hilir Selatan District, Ketapang Regency, West
00:26:07Kalimantan, killed a resident
00:26:11found with his motorbike burnt on the side of the
00:26:15road. The Head of the Ketapang Regency BPBD, Unifar
00:26:18Purwantoro, stated that there were two victims in this
00:26:21incident, with one person successfully rescued and
00:26:25treated in the
00:26:26hospital.
00:26:31Still not. The BPBD requested additional
00:26:35helicopters from the BNPB to strengthen aerial extinguishing
00:26:39efforts. Brother
00:26:42Taufiq, who happened to be going
00:26:46home from work. So in the foggy
00:26:49fire and smoke situation,
00:26:53he tried to get through. Perhaps he wanted to go home quickly.
00:26:56He fell. This is the initial information we received. Perhaps
00:27:00he suffered from lack of oxygen.
00:27:02He fainted. On the left and right sides of the road, there was fire, so
00:27:06he fell. Eventually, he
00:27:09died in a burning state.
00:27:13Forest and land fires in Palangkaraya City, Central Kalimantan, continue
00:27:16to occur almost every day and are starting to spread to residential
00:27:20areas. Joint officers continue to extinguish the fires until
00:27:23night, but these efforts are hampered by the lack of
00:27:27water sources and the very dry condition of peatlands due to the
00:27:30dry season. Based on data from the Palangkaraya City BPBD, as of
00:27:34August 5, 2026, 151
00:27:38forest and land fire incidents were recorded, with a total burnt area reaching
00:27:41162.49
00:27:44hectares. The impact of the fires also created haze that disrupted
00:27:48community activities, with many residents complaining of coughs and
00:27:51headaches due to inhaling polluted
00:27:54smoke.
00:27:58BMKG states that most of Indonesia's territory is currently entering
00:28:02the peak of the dry season. This condition is expected to last longer
00:28:06due to the influence of the El Nino phenomenon.
00:28:09Based on the updated BMKG prediction in June
00:28:12last year, around 48.8%
00:28:15of Indonesian land experienced the peak of the dry season in
00:28:18August. Meanwhile, around 24% of other regions
00:28:22are expected to reach the peak of the dry season in
00:28:25September. The El Nino phenomenon in 2026
00:28:29has caused lower rainfall than normal conditions. As a result, the transition
00:28:33period to the rainy season is predicted to be delayed in various
00:28:36regions. BMKG states that the end of the dry season does not
00:28:40occur simultaneously. Sumatra and Kalimantan
00:28:43generally start to end in September, while parts
00:28:46of Java end in November. Then for Nusa
00:28:50Tenggara, it can last until December or
00:28:53January. Conditions like this can increase the risk of forest
00:28:57and land fires. BMKG reminds areas prone to forest fires
00:29:01such as central and southern Sumatra, as well as parts of
00:29:04Kalimantan, to increase
00:29:07their vigilance.
00:29:13The end of the dry season is not uniform for all regions of
00:29:17Indonesia because various regions of
00:29:20Indonesia have their own climatic characteristics. different. For example, if we
00:29:24look normally, the Sumatra region
00:29:26will experience the end of the dry season in
00:29:30September, as will most of the Kalimantan region.
00:29:33For the Java region, some will experience the end of the dry season in
00:29:37September, and some in October and November. Meanwhile,
00:29:41the regions of NTB and NTT usually end
00:29:44the dry season in December and January. In the Sulawesi
00:29:48region, for example, there are even areas that end the dry season in
00:29:51March. However, for the dry season of
00:29:552026, there is a high probability that the end of
00:29:59the dry season will be delayed due to the El Nino 2 phenomenon.
