My Criticize about the case above:

The news above tells that most of the teachers resign of some schools. They are threatened by secessionist and rebel. I think some the teacher depressed about the case. They don’t want the thing happened. In Indonesia, the best quality of the teacher is limit. Moreover, the teacher is who teach in village or mountainous. Most of them have minimum human resources. This article tells about lack of qualified teacher in Irian Jaya. In this island, most of the student has lack of knowledge because the lack amount of teacher and the located far away from central city. Those article also mention that more than 100 teachers who escape from mountainous regency. It makes some schools are closed and some students have to study in their own home. 

It can make the students reluctant to study and become the bad effect for them. Besides that, in Irian has a slightly inadequate facility, so the teacher who came from the other region wouldn’t visit in the island. In my mind, the government of Irian should raise a fund to build some schools in many regions in the island. In the other side, the government should also increases the number of teacher from other island and gives them the adequate facility. The purpose is making the student encourage studying well and they also get the qualified teacher and make good environment teaching learning activity. The news mentions that there is an institute co-operate with Cendrawasih University in Jayapura in order to produce 200 elementary school teachers in two places.

 I agree with the thing because it make number of teacher teach increasing and make the student can get more knowledge, but the teachers who came from another island have more good qualities. However, the student must more focus and study well in order to each of student that couldn’t read becomes to be able to read after the teacher come to the island. I hope that after the recruitment of teacher to teach make the students feel comfort and can more focus to improve their reading skills. As we know that most of people must can read and write. It is the basic ability of everyone. The last, I hope that the government can realize about the case happening in the island.

The author is Elieser Renmaur, he is assisten I sekda Papua province. He wrote some news related to Papua condition in Jakarta Post. I think his writing is understandable.

Summary of the text

The news tells about lack of qualified teacher in Irian Jaya. The local teacher training institute has failed to produce qualified teachers. It's not because the teachers, but the students' difficulties to be taught. They don't feel comfort that the condition isn't good to them to teach the students. The reason is that the students of the island have weaknesses in reading skill. Reading is very important because if we can't read, the people will fool us. It can be disadvantage for the island.

The regency established the institute in 1999 after migrant teachers fled the regency in the early 1990s when they were threatened by secessionist activists and rebels.  The institute, which offers a two-year course on elementary school teaching, was set up in cooperation with the Jayapura-based Cendrawasih University as part of a crash program that is expected to produce 200 elementary school teachers in two batches. So, there is an institute that co-operate with Cendrawasih University to input 200 elementary school teachers become two places. the purpose is in order to make some places to some teachers that will teach there. It can make a good progressive to Irian Jaya.

Puncak Jaya regent Elieser Renmaur told Antara news agency that the institute was established to compensate for more than 100 teachers who fled the mountainous regency. The author will add 100 teachers of the institute in many region in Irian Jaya. Perhaps, it can be advantage for Irian Jaya, because the teachers that come from many region have good qualified. 

Irian Jaya lacks qualified 
teachers 

JAYAPURA, Irian Jaya: Puncak Jaya regency's dream of quality education will not come true in the foreseeable future because the local teacher training institute has failed to produce qualified teachers, an official said on Tuesday.

The regency established the institute in 1999 after migrant teachers fled the regency in the early 1990s when they were threatened by secessionist activists and rebels.

The institute, which offers a two-year course on elementary school teaching, was set up in cooperation with the Jayapura-based Cendrawasih University as part of a crash program that is expected to produce 200 elementary school teachers in two batches.

Puncak Jaya regent Elieser Renmaur told Antara news agency that the institute was established to compensate for the more than 100 teachers who fled the mountainous regency.

Scores of schools have been closed and hundreds of pupils have had to stay at home.

The regent said many of the first batch of 106 graduates that will graduate in October were unqualified.

""How can they teach? Many of them can hardly read. I am personally disappointed and will seek explanation from Cendrawasih University's rector about how this could happen,"" Renmaur said.
