Flooding and Online Learning

Gambar
  Thesis: On Thursday, March 14, 2024 there was heavy rain that lasted for a very long time. The heavy rain caused flooding in several areas. The floods blocked access to the roads, so the school decided to hold online learning. Argument 1: Firstly, the flood that occurred on Thursday, March 14, 2024 was predicted by BMKG. BMKG said that extreme weather conditions in the period from March 8 to 14 were triggered by at least three combined atmospheric dynamics. With this prediction, the impact of the flood itself should have been reduced. But what happens is the opposite, the floods that occur are getting worse every year. Argument 2: Secondly, the flooding that occurred on that day greatly impacted the activities of local residents. Many roads leading to work and school were flooded.

  Thesis General Election or known as "Pemilihan Umum" (Pemilu) is the implementation of the most votes cast for the election of the president. In my opinion, the 2024 general election is filled with excessive drama and gimmicks. Even some candidates use religion as a medium for campaigning. Using religion as a medium for campaigning is part of identity politics.   Argument 1 Firstly, there is candidate number 3, Ganjar Pranowo, who appeared in a Maghrib call to prayer advertisement broadcast on one of the Indonesian TV stations. Ganjar Pranowo has never done anything like this before, but because of the election, he is engaging in identity politics. In my opinion, the call to prayer advertisement should not be used as a campaign medium.   Argument 2 Secondly, in addition to candidate number 3, Ganjar Pranowo, engaging in identity politics and using religion as a medium for campaigning, candidate number 1, Anies Baswedan along with his deputy Abdul Muhaimin ...
