Over-Care in a Rural Java Society
It's a beautiful day and such a beautiful life when we live in a great and a solid neighborhood.
When we meet each other, try to communicate and to concern one to another, we start to see that our colorful life is going to be better.
That is an ideal concept to enjoy the life.
But that is only one ideal thought.
The truth is mostly different than what we thought.
Lots of actual problems happen in the neighborhood.
For an instance, a little individual problem in a solid environment will always become a joint matter for the society.
There is no privacy at some levels.
There is no self-sufficient opinion from the person who has the problem directly.
Everything is being controlled by the society.
The free thoughts or free ideas are accepted, but it is society's rights to make a final decision.
These happen for some societies in Javanese culture, especially in the most of rural regions.
The consequence of this society type was one of many reasons for the massive migration from rural to the big cities that happened in 1980's decade in Java Island.
Young people in the countryside were fed up.
They thought that they could not expand their future if they just stayed in their society.
They thought that there were lots of and big opportunities for their future in the big city.
Unfortunately, those actions led other big problems in the big cities.
The growth of job opportunities could not equalize the extreme growth of the civilization at that time.
Therefore, the devil circle caused by these multiple effects is still not being solved till this day.
