    Government Policy for Migrant Female Workers on the Border of Sambas Regency, West Kalimantan

    Get PDF
    The recent case study of Indonesian migrant workers has made exceptions for various parties. Their less fortunate fate is caused by the low quality of education and skills they possess so that in the end they are only forced to work in the informal sectors such as domestic workers and unskilled laborers. In the West Kalimantan border area, labor problems are becoming increasingly complex. Indeed, these workers channel economic value back to the villages, as well as bringing social change to the families left behind, especially for workers who are successful in their work. However, this has an impact on Indonesian migrant workers who cannot get legal protection from the Indonesian state and do not get employment insurance because they are not recorded in the official data of the national agency for the placement and protection of TKI (BP2TKI). To overcome the problems that occur among migrant workers in Sambas district, Several steps need to be taken, such as providing training to prospective migrant workers who will work abroad, giving the most severe punishment to individuals who provide services for placing Indonesian migrant workers abroad illegally, and strengthening agencies related to Indonesian migrant workers in carry out its duties and functions to protect Indonesian migrant workers who work abroad. For other workers, who are not as fortunate, it seems that the picture of smooth working abroad does not match the hopes and lures promised by employment agents. This research was conducted using normative quantitative method

    That-has-been a discussion on the body cast as that which fixes a subject in time, in relation to notions surrounding the photograph

    Much like a photograph, a casts creates a replica of its referent, thereby immobilising the subject in time. While the subject continues in time and hence ages and inevitably dies the replica does not. With this basic notion of fixing a subject, I have built an argument to contextualise my sculptures, which are made using casts of elderly people. In this discussion I have looked at my works through the ideas of different theorists. The main theorist I have cited is Roland Barthes, specifically with regards to his notion of the photograph as discussed in his book Camera Lucida. I have also referenced three particular artists: Rachel Whiteread, Diane Arbus and Churchill Madikida, as I have found each of their works relate to my work in various ways, creating a different reading from each viewpoint

    Webster\u27s dictionary defines inoculation as the act or process of improving. Also, I find that inoculation may be protective, when the substance injected aims to secure immunity; or curative, when an anti-toxin is injected as a remedy

    Biological factors involved in the absenteeism of children from Stockton public schools

    Every state has a compulsory school attendance law, and yet at any time during the school year approximately 12 percent of the children will not be in school - cannot very well be in school, because of some physical, mental, or emotional handicap, either temporary or permanent. These absentees are what are now often called the “exceptional” children, including the blind and partially-blind, the deaf and hard-of-hearing, the speech-defective, the crippled, the delicate, the epileptic, the mentally deficient, those with serious social maladjustments, together with those who are temporarily out of school because of a disease or accident. The total number of absentees from the regular public schools of the United States for such causes as the above amounted in 1948 to approximately 4,000,000 children as compared to approximately 30,000,000 children of school age. A great many of these are cared for in special schools or special classes (the number of crippled children registered, to mention but one category, now reaches over 500,000), and this number is increasing yearly. However, there are also children for whom the public, through its public schools, feels a definite responsibility. As a result, there has grown a considerable program in connection with the public schools for the education of that group known as the “homebound.

    Comparative Anatomy in the Small School

    We have been using for about eight years at Drake University, a plan in presenting our course in comparative anatomy which we think has been very successful. It is a plan which will work most efficiently in smaller schools, schools where the number in comparative anatomy laboratories does not exceed fifteen people, but some phases of it can be applied to the larger class
