realizing a just and prosperous society. Demanded
awareness and tolerance which is the basic nature of Indonesian nation since time immemorial.
Unfortunately the word social solidarity seldom heard.
It's ironic.

brotherhood and solidarity, "President Yudhoyono said in his speech at the National Social Solidarity Day in Cibubur, Jakarta, Monday (20/12). The essential features of social solidarity, which
is a concern, solidarity , a sense of shared

social solidarity requires a helping hand to those who are not able to. As the
value of basic social welfare,
social solidarity must continue to be revitalized in accordance with the actual conditions
of the nation and is implemented in a concrete manifestation
in our lives.
Social
solidarity is a value that
is meaningful to each nation. The soul and
spirit of social solidarity in the life of the nation and the people of Indonesia in essence has been around since the days of our ancestors long before this country stand as an independent nation which became known as the nation of Indonesia. The soul and the
spirit of social solidarity in the course of the life of our nation has been tested in a variety of historical events, with the peak manifestation
manifested in acts and attitudes based on
the sense of community of the people of Indonesia in the face of threats from invaders threatening
the survival of the nation.
History has
proven that Indonesia achieved
independence thanks to the high
spirit of social solidarity. Therefore, the spirit of social solidarity must always be embedded, enhanced and confirmed through a variety of activities including warnings HKSN annually.
HKSN which we
commemorate is an expression of gratitude
and respect for the success of all
the people of Indonesia in the face
of the threat of other nations
who want to re-colonize
our nation.
History Birth of the National Social Solidarity (HKSN)
As
a result of maintaining the independence
war that occurred from 1945 to 1948, the increasing
number of social problems. Ministry of Social realized that to tackle social problems required
a partner of the elements
of the population. Therefore, it
is the month of July 1949 in the city
of Yogyakarta Ministry of Social Affairs held a Social Penyusuhan
for community leaders and Social Guidance Course
for Prospective Sosiawan or Social Worker, with
the hope to be a partner to the
government in tackling social
problems that are going on.
The Sosiawan or Social Worker has worked well, the soul and the spirit of togetherness, mutual cooperation, kinship and willingness to sacrifice selflessly that has grown in society can be strengthened, so that people can cope with and overcome the social problems that arise when it is in order to achieve social welfare for community.

Therefore,
to preserve and strengthen the values of social solidarity that has grown within the community
and to improve
the performance and unify the
Sosiawan or Social
Worker, the Ministry of Social Affairs and Social Work makes
Symbol Code or
Sosiawan attitude. Coat of Social Work and
the Code Sosiawan created on December 20,
1949, exactly one year of historic events unification
of the whole society in defending
the country's sovereignty, the date of December 20, 1948, a day after the Dutch colonial army invaded and occupied
the nation's capital at the time Yogyakarta. Of that day named as DAY
SOCIAL.
Social Day
or National Social Solidarity Day
(HKSN) is celebrated on December 20 every year
as the gratitude and respect for the success of all the people of Indonesia in the face of the threat of other nations who wish to re-colonize our nation.
Social Day
celebration or the National
Social Solidarity (HKSN) is an
effort to remember, appreciate
and emulate the spirit of unity,
unity, mutual cooperation and kinship Indonesian people that work together to defend
the nation's sovereignty over the occupied city of Yogyakarta as the capital of the Republic of Indonesia by Dutch
soldiers on 1948.
Togetherness Rhetoric and Social Solidarity
Togetherness Rhetoric and Social Solidarity
The
founders of this nation has endorsed the motto Unity in Diversity. The spirit of unity in diversity
is not only referring
to ethnicity but also of culture, religion, and
so on. The spirit is then either explicitly or implicitly stated in
the Act of 1945.
Perhaps, unfortunately,
the farther these periods, the farther are we from
the spirit. Like
it or not, the people of Indonesia
who was hailed as
a welcoming nation and the spirit of
mutual help be just rhetoric. As though our
nation has become a nation that
does not care about each other. Sorry, we
seemed to have lost the spirit of caring and
social solidarity.
Furthermore, as a result of communal conflict and separatism, has also created suffering of the people in some areas, causing tremendous grief. It may be no exaggeration if social solidarity is expected to rebuild the harmony of the nation.

Of
course, we realize that in carrying out their livelihoods will not be free from dependence
on others. Because, everyone may not
be able to make ends meet without the involvement of other parties.
Either directly or indirectly. The same is true for a
community or organization of
the various elements in the community, including business or service.
Then, we
are often wrong to say that justice is
the only keywords that can solve
the problems that cause human tragedy. Then answer
the question of how philosophy major
humanitarian devastated by violence are rampant
lately?
When
the ethics of justice proved
jammed in resolving violent outbursts, because when people try to resolve the fairness approach
would be to ask who
started it, then the ethical
concerns of community can be an alternative because it emphasizes
the interdependence of the good relationship.
Ethical Concern
What is needed is an ethic of care. Ethical concerns talked
about interrelatedness and diversity leads to
the truth. In practice it is not difficult, that is how to be a
man who cares,
that takes into account relationships
with each other. Remind
each other. Matter. At its heart
is willing to listen. Mutual understanding.
This, is
the practice of concentration
values of social solidarity and will be reflected in the low or high severity of
the problems faced by a community,
society, or nation in question becomes an
indicator.
Social
solidarity contains aspects of solidarity, tolerance, empathy,
and not vice versa. Indifferent, indifferent to others, or selfish.
Self awareness
is a part of spiritual intelligence.
Then the imagination, the ability to imagine something.
It deals with problem solving or troubleshooting. Remember we are still facing a crisis of education in which participation
of our friends in the various foundations and NGOs Education organizes cheap
and there are free to become one of the
spearheads of our education
solutions.
This
all requires self awareness.
Courage, self-awareness, and imagination there would be no meaning without conscience.
Conscience is what encourages us to always tell the
truth for what it is.
What
should be done now is the mental revolution and the belief
in the sense of our concern for one another to remind each other as well as our mental ripen.
This is called a mental revolution and Confidence.
We have to believe that this nation would
be better with
the mental maturity as well as our concern. Once again
together in the midst
of society. Also, the role of the
government that can not be separated and removed.
Synergy and once
again the belief in
the sense of fellow Indonesian
Community Concerns.
Persons
with social welfare problems (POM)
We
are aware that with social welfare problems
(POM) progressively increasing. Both in kind and number.
This increase is in line with the dynamics of the
social life of the time now.
When we
refer to Act No.
6 of 1974 on Basic Provisions of
the Social Welfare imply shared responsibility. POM handling government
business other than the task
and also the duty
and our responsibility.
To
that end, we expect increasing
our concern for others so that POM today
and in the future can be gradually reduced.
Through our caring for others, the social potential
of the load will be lighter.
Social solidarity day is celebrated nationally
this year when Indonesia grieving. The succession of disasters strike began
flooding in Wasior, followed by the earthquake and tsunami in Mentawai until the eruption of Mount Merapi in Yogyakarta. Let us take measures that can support and foster and
strengthen "social solidarity", particularly for victims of the disaster.
Echoes
of "Pray For Indonesia" that was yesterday's major
project is one of our nation's
moral support for the disaster that occurred on Indonesian soil. While the actions of the more obvious
is to provide assistance in the
form of material and energy
as a volunteer, including in the field of psychosocial.
In addition, such efforts to raise funds to provide
relief to disaster victims is also an act that can support and foster and
strengthen social solidarity.
Actually if
the social solidarity,
social solidarity are values, attitudes
and behavior that is based on understanding,
awareness, responsibility, equality and social participation to address and tackle
social problems in accordance with their respective capabilities with kebersamaaan spirit,
mutual cooperation, familiarity and
willingness selfless sacrifice.
The
purpose of the National Social Solidarity
Day is a momentum
to develop and preserve the values of social solidarity
to be utilized so
that it becomes part of the
attitude and behavior
of everyday life, society and nation. In addition
to utilizing the active
role of the wider community, particularly the community can afford, institutionalized and sustained both short term and long term to address and
cope with social problems. (source: depsos.go.id)
No
less important form of solidarity,
social action is
prevention efforts, such as public awareness efforts to prevent social
disaster, or social
problems. Related to this is
a disaster, how do we instill the values
that can maintain the balance
of nature, as adopted by the remote indigenous communities, such as taboo to
destroy nature, such as illegal logging, the sale of endangered animals, and more. It could be a
campaign, counseling, distribution of posters or flyers that contains the
call or call to protect the environment or keep the peace.
