Mohammad Hatta
One of Indonesia proclamators is Mohammad Hatta. He was born on August 12th, 1902 in Bukittinggi, Sumatra, Indonesia (Dutch East Indies) and he
was died on March 14th, 1980 in Jakarta, Indonesia. Together with Soekarno, he was a leader of the Indonesian independence movement who was prime
minister in 1948 till 1950 and vice president in 1950 till 1956 of Indonesia.
He was president of the Perhimpunan Indonesia (Indonesian Union), a progressive, nationalist political group founded by overseas Indonesian
students while he studied in the Netherlands from 1922 to 1932. Mohammad Hatta returned to Indonesia in 1932. Then, The Dutch arrested him in 1934 because
of his political activities and sent him the infamous concentration camp of Boven Digul in West New Guinea. In 1935 he was exiled to the island of Bandanaira,
where he remained until the eve of the Japanese invasion in World War II.
Different with the Dutch, the Japanese actively promoted Indonesian nationalism. In 1943, Mohammad Hatta and Soekarno, the future president of
Indonesia, collaborated with them helped to organize the Japanese-sponsored home defense corps Sukarela Tentara Pembela Tanah Air (Peta), the first
Indonesian armed force. When it became clear that the Japanese would lose the war, however, many nationalists urged an insurrection and immediate
independence, but Hatta advised patience until they were sure that the Japanese would surrender. Sukarno and Mohammad Hatta were kidnapped by members
of the students’ union and persuaded to declare Indonesian independence on August 17th, 1945. Hatta served as vice president in the subsequent revolutionary
government. In 1948, when he was prime minister, he played an important part in the suppression of the communist revolt at Madiun in eastern Java, a measure
that gained the struggling government many supporters in Western countries. He led the Indonesian delegation at the United Nations-sponsored Hague
Conference (August 23–November 2, 1949) that culminated in the recognition by the Netherlands of Indonesia’s complete independence.
Mohammad Hatta helped to guide the new country through a crucial period of transition from a federal to a unified state while serving as prime
minister during the first seven months of 1950.
Mohammad Hatta served as vice president until December 1956, when he resigned because of increasing disagreement with President Soekarno’s
policy of “guided democracy.” Essentially a moderate, administratively oriented leader, Hatta felt that dealing with Indonesia’s grave economic crises was of
primary importance and feared that Soekarno’s policies would bankrupt the country. He was also consistently critical of Sukarno’s anti-Western and anti-
Malaysian foreign policy. After Soekarno’s downfall, Mohammad Hatta came out of retirement to serve as special adviser to President Soeharto on the problem
of government corruption.

Alfred Bernhard Nobel
Alfred Nobel was born on October 21st, 1833 in Stockhlom, Sweden. He was Swedish chemist, engineer, and industrialist, who invented dynamite
and other, more powerful explosives and who also founded the Nobel Prizes.
Alfred Nobel was the fourth son of Immanuel and Caroline Nobel. Alfred’s father was an inventor and engineer. He had failed at various business
ventures until moving in 1837 to Russia, where he prospered as a manufacturer of explosive mines and machine tools. Alfred and his family left Stockholm in
1842 to join the father in St. Petersburg, Russia. Alfred’s newly prosperous parents were now able to send him to private tutors. By the age of sixteen, he was
known as a competent chemist and was fluent in English, French, German, and Russian, as well as Swedish.
Alfred Nobel went to study chemistry in Paris after he left from Russia. He, then spent four years in the United States working under the builder of the
ironclad warship Monitor. Upon his return to Russia, Alfred Nobel worked in his father’s factory, which made military equipment. But, after the war ended in 1856,
the company had difficulty switching to the peace time and it went bankrupt in 1859.
Alfred Nobel and his parents returned to Sweden, while his brothers Robert and Ludvig stayed behind in Russia to salvage what was left of the family business.
Alfred soon began experimenting with explosives in a small laboratory on his father’s estate. At the time, the only dependable explosive for use in mines was
black powder, a form of gunpowder. A recently discovered liquid compound, nitroglycerin, was a much more powerful explosive, but it was so unstable that it
could not be handled with any degree of safety. Nevertheless, Alfred Nobel in 1862 built a small factory to manufacture nitroglycerin, and at the same time he
undertook research in the hope of finding a safe way to control the explosive’s detonation. In 1863 he invented a practical detonator consisting of a wooden plug
inserted into a larger charge of nitroglycerin held in a metal container; the explosion of the plug’s small charge of black powder serves to detonate the much more
powerful charge of liquid nitroglycerin. In 1865 Nobel invented an improved detonator called a blasting cap; The invention of the blasting cap inaugurated the
modern use of high explosives.
Alfred Nobel’s second important invention was that of dynamite in 1867. Nobel named the new product dynamite (from Greek dynamis, “power”) and
was granted patents for it in Great Britain (1867) and the United States (1868). Dynamite established Nobel’s fame worldwide and was soon put to use in blasting
tunnels, cutting canals, and building railways and roads.
In the 1870s and ’80s Nobel built a network of factories throughout Europe to manufacture dynamite, and he formed a web of corporations to produce and
market his explosives.
Alfred Nobel died in Italy, in 1896. At his death his worldwide business empire consisted of more than 90 factories manufacturing explosives and
ammunition. Alfred Nobel had always been generous in humanitarian and scientific philanthropies, and he left the bulk of his fortune in trust to establish what
came to be the most highly regarded of international awards, the Nobel Prizes.

Because today’s people are living longer than ever, more psychologists and social workers have begun to
study ways of care-giving to improve care of the elderly. They have found that all caregivers share a common
characteristic: They believe that they are the best persons for the job, for different reasons. One caregiver said that
she had always been close to the mother. Another caregiver was the oldest child, and another was the youngest child.
Regardless of the reason, the caregivers all felt that they could do the job better than anyone else. Social workers
interviewed caregivers to find out why they took on the responsibilty of caring of an elderly, dependent relative. They
discovered three basic reasons, Many caregivers believed that they had an obligation to help their relatives. Some
stated that helping others made them fell more useful. Others hoped that by helping someone now, they would
deserve care when they became old and dependent.
Researchers have found that caring for the elderly can be a very positive experience. The elderly
appreciated the care and attention they received. They were affectionate and cooperative. However, even when care-
giving is satisfying, it is had work. Social workers and experts on aging offer caregivers and potential caregivers help
when arranging for the care of and elderly relative. One consideration is to ask parents what they want before they
become sick or dependent. Perhaps they prefer going into nursing home, and can select one in advance. On the other
hand, they may want to live with their adult children. Caregivers must also learn to arouse confidence in others and
ask for help from others. Brothers and sisters are often willing to help, but they may not know what to do.

How to Give a Succesfull Presentation
There are so many interesting presentations. But, they are destroyed by the bad speaker. As the
speaker itself, giving a bad presentation is like a nightmare because speakers hold the interest of their
audience. They should avoid errors as soon as possible. If the chance of errors can be avoided, the chance of
getting big attention is higher. Then, how to make a good presentation?
There are fundamental differences between oral and written report. In the oral presentation, speaker needs to
follow the speaker who presents the materials. In the written report, the reader can skip the unnecessary part to
jump to the content, conclusion, recommendation, et cetera. So, what should we do? We should speak as
confident as possible. Besides that, the detail of the topic should treat separately. It can make the audience feel
curious and eager to follow the speaker.
