Honorable all the juries and the
committee of this English speech contest… First of all, let’s thanks to Allah
SWT who has given us many marcies and blessing, so we can join in this programe
without any troubles… secondly, I want to introduct my self. My name is Agus
Yunus Alfarabi, I am a student of Darul Ulum Islamic Elementary School
Bantaran.
Well, Ladies and gentlemen
In this occasion I would like to
tell you about the “Urgency of Character Education”. We know that so many incidents
of juvenile delinquency that often happens at some towns in our country from
television lately. Starting from sex deviation, black parties, criminals,
fights among students even lead to the death. All of these happen in the world
because the figure of the teacher that must be a guide has been shifted by actress
or actor. Such as, Most of us crazy about Ariel Peterpan, now is known Noah
than Our prophet and teachers in the class. Now
I want to give a test for you all. I will sing a lyric of Noah song and
you continue it, ok? “karena separuh
aku….. dirimu,,”, once more please, “karena
separuh aku…. Please reply ….
Dirimu….”. meanwhile we know that Ariel has been stubbed of pornography
case. But why he is still be our idol?
Ladies and gentlemen
Related to what happened lately
keeping in touch with morality, finally the government begins rise up. One of
the government’s caring is the character of education recently. In the school,
teacher is demanded not only for transferring knowledge but also should able to
put a character or good moral to the students therefore when they become a
doctor, so they become good doctor. become a councilor, but a great councilor.
Well, ladies and gentlemen
We have to imitate the Japanese’s
education. Please look them how they give greeting when meet with their senior,
or when receive their guest. They all still keep moral, althought their country
is progressive, same with United State of America. Usually they always say: “ Arigato Gozaimasu……, Ohayo Gozaimasu……….
Hai’ dozoyoro ziku…” What’s about in Indonesia? It’s a pitty. We knoe that
Indonesia is the most number of Moslem in the world. Even, our prophet said:
………………………………………………………………………………………….
Meanwhile, the the basic of
character is one of the purpose national education, section one of Sisdiknas
law years 2003. Dr. Martin Luther King said” intelligence Plus character…..
that is the goal of true education”. What is the concept of character education?
Did you know? We refers to our personage education “ Ki Hajar dewantara” his
say be our education motto. “Ing ngerso
sung tuladha, In madya mangun kerso, tutwuri handayani.” Did you know it’s
mean?. Same with me I don’t know too.
Hehehehe..
Ladies and gentlemen…
Ing ngerso sung tuladha, the childrens

In madya mangun kerso, the childrens are

Tutwuri handayani,
