Jakarta In Today
Life journey

A little introduce yourself about a village man named Soldier.

People like Soldiers are often found on the outskirts of the streets of Jakarta, as if at first glance to look at each other with him, then it only takes 3 minutes, no less and no more, then anyone would just forget.

There may be a little advantage, but it is only limited to the skills of Soldiers who are quite easy to familiarize themselves with each person. Because indeed his skill in speaking is an important skill that he honed when working as a dish seller anti-breakage.

Only, this ability can be said to be useless, if he uses it in the city of Jakarta, because Jakarta is not a place for people to familiarize themselves with each other, because if Soldiers choose friends wrongly, because if you choose your friends wrong, he will fall into the black hole of evil.

But when Askar met Mr. Warju as a copaja driver majoring in kalideres - grogol, he was more often given a lot of life learning by the senior nomads.

Telling how Mr. Warju is fighting for his life in the city of Jakarta, this is not kidding, like a documentary, of course it has entered the big screen box office.

Warju's journey began with his earnestness to change the fate of the misery of the poor family.

"You know tong, I feel that Jakarta is, amazingly great, tall, shimmering buildings, a lot of cars, people in suits and ties, and you know that's even better..." Warju said with pride.

"What is it sir."

"I met the president on a march."

"Woooaayah..." The soldier was amazed, even he had never seen the president pass by to this day.

"But all is not as I imagined, it turns out that behind the sparkling city of Jakarta, there are many bad people in it, I myself became a victim and almost died. Fortunately, Gusti Allah still gave this father a chance to survive." He said with a face full of complexity.

Warju has done a lot of work, from Asongan, shoemaker, pelvic porters, building porters, waitresses at the Mak Wajem stall, to, until he had to wallow in mud at times the roadside is famous blackish and the smell can be a panacea as first aid when there is a trance, ever Warju do.

"There is no easy way to live in Jakarta, but as long as we believe that Gusti Allah is fair, one day there must be a way out of all difficulties." Patted the shoulders of Soldiers with an innocent smile on his wrinkled face.

Until now, people know the figure of Warju as the founder of a Javanese overseas community that is commonly called PAPERJA, Pak Warju also invites Soldiers to join.

"Jakarta is not more like the wild, who is strong he who wins, but it can be changed by us, because I assume, no matter how strong Jakarta, Jakarta, as long as we are united and help each other then the rigors of life in Jakarta may be a little lighter."According to Mr. Warju with a serious look and clenched his hands.

Warju is a nomad that is very difficult to find in Jakarta, can not even be found in the history books of independence heroes.

Warju is the type that always wants to improve something, from family problems, community problems, oversea problems and including humanitarian problems that have been critical by injustice.

He has great ideals, not as president because he thinks the president is just busy behind AC tables and rooms. But never know how much pain people who wait for the president to keep his promise even to change the new period and put forward their new promise to serve the president again.

But Soldiers kept up their obligations as parking attendants at the terminal, often seeing how friendly the Warju were with other drivers around him, even according to the soldiers themselves warju does not consider every other Kopaja driver is a rival.

They are friends who both seek sustenance in the streets as a bus driver Kopaja, even so Warju is still Warju. The figure appointed as one of the leaders of the society, making himself firm in doing the task, no matter who is wrong, in the eyes of the wrong warju still wrong and right is right.

A little story about the assertiveness of Warju is when he saw a member of the society provoking his friend, just because of the mutual ridicule of the issue of rank. Though the two of them were no more than a building porters, one of which was just lifted from a cement mixer into a bricklayer.

Such trivial problems also sometimes make chaotic paguyuban, until often held an emergency meeting to decide the way out of the problem of the two of them and who became an intermediary or moderator is warju himself.

Therefore Askar and Narmo intend to come to the PAPEJA club.like a party management place, the flag bearing a rice field hat, sickle and hoe fluttering at the front gate of a rented house.

Looking inside there were some mats neatly arranged with the members standing looking at the two of us as we entered.

Soldiers and Narmo as greeted with a red carpet, an honorary symbol for important guests entering the pulpit of this Javanese Regional Governorate, but it is not denied they are old like village children in general who are embarrassed and also confused.

Just walking with a stiff face amazed, seeing how many members applauded to welcome Soldiers and Narmo along with a wreath of flowers wrapped around their necks.

Little Soldier read the atmosphere that might look so crowded and happy, but from his own point of view, there were some people who showed strange expressions.

One of them when clapping without looking at us and smiling wryly, in the heart of the Soldier read the look on the face of the person who meant.

"Who else is this hick, his face is similar to that of an ape who hasn't eaten in two days."

There are also people who are laughing by throwing their faces and clapping slowly, it can be interpreted as..

"Elu has returned there to the village, Jakarta has many people like you two who look like apex plus Elu come here, narrow dah Jakarta is ."

For some reason in the Army think people who express their faces always mean to reproach people like them, but one more person who claps hard, tight and smiles by biting the lower lip, he said, that meant.

"You until when you stand up, quickly sit down the legs of the cave already pegel, can not stand ."

For some reason Askar is in this place, one of which is that he wants to expand his knowledge of Jakarta, because the more information he gets, he said, the greater the chance to change the fate of this life.

Even if the information is in a rancid garbage can, it does not change the price of knowledge.
