TEXT 1

THE GREEN PRINCESS

Once upon a time, centuries ago, in Karo there was a beautiful girl called the Green Princess. The fame of her beauty spread as far as Aceh to the West and the present state of Malaysia to the North. And so you will not be surprised when I tell you that the Sultan of Aceh was captivated by her beauty and was determined that she would be his wife. However, even the Sultan had joint to queue of hopefuls waiting for a chance to propose marriage to this beautiful princess. Day by day each man presented himself to the princess, but she rejected each of them one by one.

The Sultan was not used to being refused anything and so he became very angry. In fact, he was so upset that he sent the soldiers to force the princess to accept him in marriage. This was not very civilized way of doing things, but love can make a man behave in strange ways. The princess, however, was not the king of woman who surrendered easily. With the help of her brothers she managed to resist the Sultan’s army. Her brothers were strange pair; one was like a cannon, the other like dragon.

Day in day out the cannon-brother launched bombs on the Sultan’s army. This went on for fortnight until the cannon-brother overheated and broke into pieces. This was very unfortunate for the princess as now she had no defender. Her dragon-brother, since he was a sea-dragon, was at sea. And since dragons have to remain in the sea, he was unable to help his sister on land. The result of all this was that the Sultan’s army captured the princess and took her by sea to Aceh.

On the Sultan’s ship, the princess sobbed and cried. Hearing the sorrow, her dragon-brother came to the surface of the sea and snatched her from the hands of the soldiers. Imagine their amazement at seeing the sea dragon.

And what happened then to the Green Princess ? Her dragon-brother took her down beneath the waves. No one has ever seen her since.

Supratman, son of Indonesian colonial army instructor, was born on May, 1903. He had five sisters but no brothers. When his father retired from the army, the family moved to Cimahi. At the age of seven, his father sent him to “Boedi Oetomo” elementary school, where he proved to be one of the bright pupils. In 1992 his mother died. Two years afterwards he joined his sister in Ujung Pandang. His sister added “Wage Rudolf” to his name so it became “Wage Rudolf Supratman”. She did this to enable her to send him to the Dutch elementary school (HIS). He joined in the second year.

Completing his elementary school he continued his study at the Teacher’s Training school. He graduated in 1920 and became a teacher. In 1923, the government appointed him to teach at Singkang, another town in South Sulawesi, but his sister objected. At last, he resigned. He worked in a lawyer’s office for a year, and then he went to Bandung and work as a journalist. One year later he moved to Jakarta and worked for the “Sin Po” newspaper. He married Mujenah in 1926, but had no children. After ten years of marriage, they divorced.

As a journalist, W.R. Supratman got in touch with many Indonesian nationalist leaders. Besides, he was a musician and a composer. His father taught him to play violin when he was young in Ujung Pandang. He composed several pieces of music. “Indonesia Raya” or Great Indonesia, was one of them. He composed it in 1928.

Run the water is coming

There is this shout that still keeps ringing in my ears: “Run the water’s coming!”

Sunday morning began hotter than usual. The sun was really bright at just 7:50 a.m. At home I was enjoying my coffee and reading the local daily, Serambi Indonesia. Sunday is when young people head for Ulee Lhee beach, only five kilometres from the town. After swimming, they would usually have a picnic on the beach with food from home.

Suddenly my newspaper shook in my hands. The shaking became increasingly stronger. I ran out of the house with my two younger siblings. We shouted His name – La illaha illallah (There There is no God but Allah). The quake got stronger and we clutched on to one another. Water in the gutters shook and spilled over.

The shouts grew louder amid the sound of a tree cracking, ready to crash. Neighbours hugged one another, some crying. This lasted for several minutes. It left cracked walls and pale faces. No one went into their homes. We live about six kilometers from the beach.

Half an hour later another quake occurred and everyone was hysterical, though it was of a lesser strength. I felt very worried. Quakes are common in Aceh but not like the first one.

I went to see the situation outside and shortly after passed thousands of people shrieking in panic.

“Run! The water is coming!”

People were moving in all sorts of vehicles heading out town. Everyone was carrying a bundle of clothing or rice. Screams and crying infants filled the air.

I rushed home; there were other, lesser tremors and we remained outside.

I ventured out at 11 a.m. ; God, the whole town, every corner, was a devastating ruin. I learnt later of the wave, the tsunami that must have hit the entire town of Banda Aceh, because there was no water left – just black, knee-high, mud.

In the Lamteumen district near the beach, all homes had been crushed by the wall of water. There were several bodies lodged between planks of wood inside the houses.

It was all chaos. Everyone was in a state of panic. Aceh’s capital had been entirely destroyed, with dozens of bodies lying around the front of Baiturrahman mosque, the town’s landmark and the pride of its townspeople. In just a few minutes thousands had lost their families.

I was absolutely sure that, these bodies included the youth who would have been playing by the beach, fisherman, residents living up to at least two kilometers away from the coast.

JAKARTA (JP) : The cooking oil industry in North Sulawesi is facing a shortage of raw materials totaling about 100,000 tons of coconuts every year, a report said. Data at the research center of Sam Ratulangi University in Manado shows that there are 30 cooking oil plants operating in the province at present with a combined capacity of processing about 350,000 tons of coconuts a year. Because of the limited supplies of coconuts, the cooking oil plants in the province cannot operate at full capacity, the report was quoted by Kompas daily Monday as saying.

North Sulawesi’s coconut production reaches 250,000 tons per year, but a portion of the output is sold to cooking oil mills in Java.

JAKARTA : the bomb, in the resort of Kuta, destroyed the Sari Club and a crowded nightspot. Many people have fallen victims to this blast.

BLACKSANDS

Blacksands is a large seaside town. Half of the town lies to the north of the River Black and the other half lies to the south. It is only a few kilometer to the nearest highway and just ten minutes’ drive from the city of Harstone.

Situated near the beach are lots of brightly painted hotels; some of them are very old. Many big-name department stores, as well as smaller shops that sell souvenirs and gifts, are found on the main street just outside the town centre. The heart of town is occupied by older houses and many historical buildings. In recent years, some new housing estates have been developed to the south of the town.
