Life Reality
After leaving the building area, Adi and Fikri now decided to take a break around the dining area in the beautiful Taman Mini Indonesia area, after deciding to stop at a small shop selling snacks and drinks, Adi and Fikri then went downstairs.
"Ma'am, order two coffees," said Fikri to a middle-aged mother who was a seller at the shop
"I'm iced coffee, ma'am," said Adi, adding
Then soon the two of them sat on a bench that a place in front of them, "people are crazy, obviously, the first meeting said 10 to 15%, now how come it suddenly went up 30%" said Fikri with an annoyed snort while then removing cigarettes and think
Fikri inhaled with satisfaction and soon Fikri emitted cigarette smoke as if relaxing his mind, on the other hand,adi who arranged with Fikri just shook his head and said then "it's only natural that you don't know the habits of Indonesian people if you can make it difficult why to make it easier" said Adi while laughing yet clearly, from the tone it was something of ridicule
It has become an open secret for the Indonesian people that on several occasions, there will always be extortion in several places, although it cannot be generalized, emotional experience, almost all aspects of extortion exist.
Thinking about this Fikri just sighed, when will the extortion disappear, "Yes, I know that too, in developed countries it is the same, only the name is different, not extortion like us, but money Vi" replied Fikri adding
"If the supervision isn't tight and weak, it's natural for cases like that to happen," Adi replied again
When the two of them were chatting, it wasn't long before the shop's mother brought their drink, took a sip of iced coffee, and felt the freshness, then he came back and said, "Don't think about it too much, they don't bother us too much, just give it a little, but if you look closely no" Adi replied while showing his cellphone
At first, Fikri wondered what Adi meant by showing his cellphone, but then he seemed to realize something excitedly, "Did you record it earlier?" Ask Fikri
"Yes, I recorded it earlier, because from experience it, is usually like that so just in case heheheh," said Adi happily
"I can't imagine what his face will look like when we're exposed," Fikri replied
"Yes, if he's busy, if not, don't worry, it's just a waste of time" Adi replied again
"Well, report first with bro Firman, " as Firkri reminded
"Ok" Adi replied and not long after he started making phone calls, for a moment there was bro's voice from the other side of the phone "yes why di?" Ask bro
"The building problem has been fixed, bro, only 3 days of down payment" replied Adi
"Ok that's good, now that means you just have to pay later 3 days later, by the way, how much is the down payment?" Ask sis
"15% bro, it's just that someone usually asks for a share" Adi replied again
"Oh someone asked for a share, okay, just give it as long as it's not too much" replied bro Firman
And soon the two of them ended their conversation, "how about the rations?" Ask Fikri
"I've been told, and just tell him what he said as long as it's not outrageous," replied Adi, shrugging his shoulders as a sign of helplessness.
This is commonplace in almost all countries in the world because basically when there is a need there will be interest and this is what certain people take advantage of with several positions they control, on the other hand, of course, the weakness of existing supervision and also interests that run each other, one becomes an inseparable couple.
So that in this case, those who do not have power and access will always be targets for those who have these privileges, however, there will still be some cases where those who feel disadvantaged in a clever way they can reverse the existing situation.
After chatting for a while, the two finally decided to go back to campus, because on the other hand Fikri also had class hours and Adi decided to return to his house, "Ok, see you tomorrow" said Adi to Fikri
Then with a wave of his hand, the adi parted with Fikri, this time the adi walked to the parking area where his motorbike was parked, this year is 2030, a year of many changes, on the other hand, the development of the world economy after experiencing a crash due to the virus in early 2020, after a few years the recovery essentially made a big jump in economies around the world.
The world seems to be cleaning up to realize the importance of environmental change, so many things have changed in the last few years, starting with the rise of electric-fueled vehicles and also the nature-based economy being the most promising thing.
And like today when the world is trying to change for the better, but without them realizing the damage that has been done by humans can be said to have been too severe, so basically the earth can no longer withstand it.
Adi, who drives on the road, feels that the temperature is getting hotter, even though Indonesia can be said to be a tropical country, and the tropical environment is the best environment that humans can live in, where there are only two seasons, namely the rainy season and the dry season, because of stability These seasons are countries that are in the tropical zone.
It is a country that is rich in natural resources and food sources, yes, in contrast to those who have a 4 season climate where there is little time to cultivate crops, but because the four seasons make these countries have better determination and enthusiasm unyielding than those in the tropics.
Because basically, their lives are more difficult so humans are encouraged to innovate more and this is evident from technological advances and also the progress of the countries with 4 seasons climate, just look at Asian countries such as Japan, Korea, parts of China, and other countries. European and American countries, almost all of them are countries with 4 seasons climate.
Compare this with tropical countries such as ASEAN countries, African countries, and South American countries, all of which are blessed with fertile soil and abundant nature, but basically, the progress they have for the current era can be said to be lagging behind those countries with 4 climates.
At first, the annual meeting on climate change was often held but in fact, the real changes did not occur in the entire world community, there were still many who were not aware of these changes, what they realized was that this was an ordinary natural cycle but behind it all a plan, Great things await mankind on earth.
Due to their lifestyle and the destruction of nature that has been going on for hundreds or even thousands of years, until in the end, in this case, the earth where humans live can't stand it, and in its efforts to rejuvenate itself, of course, make some efforts.
And these efforts are natural disasters that he sent down, in fact, the terrible natural disasters that have occurred on earth have been going on repeatedly, it is based on the historical records of many ancient civilizations that have perished, such as the legend of Atlantis from Plato, as for the Lemurians, all of which were highly advanced civilizations but were swallowed up by the catastrophe created by the earth.

Now, after traveling for almost an hour from the capital city of Jakarta, Adi, who had been riding his motorbike, has arrived in a city called Depok, the buffer city of the capital city of the metropolis Jakarta, Depok city as one of the buffer cities of several cities around Jakarta. Entering the area known as Jabodetabek (Jakarta, Bogor, Depok, Tangerang, Bekasi) are cities that makeup megacities like Jakarta.
Because the resources that exist in Jakarta cannot be met by Jakarta itself, so then the four cities around Jakarta act as buffer cities, by providing human resources as well as various other resources.
And for this reason, too, the city of Jakarta, which was already crowded during the working day, became even more crowded, because it was flooded with workers from those 4 cities, even according to a survey of the city of Jakarta when the working day lasted from 5 am to 8 am. night, has almost double the existing population if the city of Jakarta is inhabited by more than 10 million original residents, then on weekdays, Monday to Friday, the city of Jakarta will swell, contain 15 to 20 million people.
You can imagine how dense this is so that basically the city of Jakarta is always included in the order of the most populous cities and also the most congested city in the world, not without the solution of the special local government of the city of Jakarta and also the central government of the Indonesian state trying to carry out surgery in Jakarta.
It's just because the rate of population growth and motorized vehicles in the city of Jakarta cannot be compared with the comparison of the rate of the roads being built in the city of Jakarta, not to mention the delay in the development of public transportation such as in developed countries, namely the LRT, MRT, and so on, which have only recently been implemented in early 2022.
Because of this delay, Jakarta has become a very dense city, and because of the large number of people living there, it makes basic needs such as eating and drinking something extraordinary, not to mention the use of groundwater by the residents of the city of Jakarta causing a very drastic decline, annually to land in Jakarta.
Some even predict that in 2050 the city of Jakarta will sink.
