Saya pernah bertemu dan akhirnya berdiskusi panjang dengan slah satu orang yang ingin sekali berdiskusi tentang pengembangan sosial. singkat cerita si A tidak mengikuti salah satau sesi perdana dari diskusi online yang sedang marak dilakukan selama musim pandemi ini. Si A hanya mengikuti sesi ketiga dan akhirnya si A merasa kurnag nyambung dan ingin kemabli menanyakan tentang materi di sesi-sesi sebelumnya. Terutam untuk sesi perdananya atau sesi pertama dari diskusi online tersebut. 

Nah berhubung pemateri disesi pertama adalah saya, yang secara khusus membahas tentang salah satu kebutuhan materi yang dipertanyakan si A, maka saya secara pribadi merasa bertanggungjawab untuk memenuhi permintaan Penjelasan dari si A tersebut. awalnya si A bersuaha untuk berdiskusi dalam grup online tersbut. Namun tidak semua peserta merasa nyaman dengan diskusi tesbut. ada salah satu orang yang cukup membuat saya “kesal” karena berkata seperti ini: 

Si A: "Dear All. Saya sdg membaca resume tersebut di atas, tidak ada pembahasan terkait pertanyaan saya di atas, yaitu perbedaan SocDev dan Com Dev dan penekanannya, Maka saya berasumsi itu adalah hal yang sama namun berbeda istilah, tetapi jika demikian kenapa di file materi condev judulnya memakai kata penghubung "dan" bukannya "atau"?. Maaf saya masih belajar mohon pencerahannya? 

”. Jawab si B “maaf kawan ini diskusi gratis jangan banyak nuntut”. Si A”oh begitukah, kalau begitu saya mohon maaf, sudah menganggu ketenangan grup ini”. kira-kira demikian percakapan mereka dalam grup tersebut. 

Saya secara personal akhirnya memohon ijin ke dalam grup dan ke si A untuk melakukan diskusi secara japri. 

“Selamat siang pak. Salam kenal, saya vilta. Pemateri dari session pertama digrup diskusi online yg diadakan oleh pihak YPPTI. Maaf saya merespon secara japri dan maaf juga baru merespon. Ada yg bisa saya bantu pak, atau apa yg bisa kita diskusikan bersama via japri. ✌🏻☺️“

“Baik pak, saya sudah menyimak bbrapa pertanyaa bapak di dalam grup tersebut.“

“Terima kasih sudah mau bertanya, dan bagi saya ini salah satu pertanyaan yg cukup klasik pak, sering saya temukan beberapa org yg bingung membedakan, sehingga tidak jarang juga saya sendiri sering bingung menjelaskan perbedaanya. Namun saya coba untuk memudahkan untuk dapat dibedakan antara pembangunan sosial dan pengembangan komunitas, dengan cara memahami bahwa pembangunan sosial itu lebih kompleks dan skalanya lebih besar (dalm konteks negara misalnya). Sedangkan pengembangan komunitas lebih kecil skala atau cakupan dampingannya. Atau bisa dibilang lokal to global. Kira kira demikian pak, 🙂“

Si A; “Ah penjelasan ini yg sy cari Pak, maaf Pak atau Bu ya?. Jadi penekanan nya pada skala atau cakupan wilayah dari penerima manfaatnya ya?”

saya “Betul sekali pak. 🙂”

Si A: “Saya ..... mbak, sejak 1999 sdh bersama petani, (bahkan pernah jadi petani kakao selama beberapa waktu) baik sebagai sahabat maupun duta dari perusahaan atau organisasi, saya tidak paham tentang ilmu-ilmu nya, namun sy yakin apa yg ada didalamnya yang disebut sebagai condev saya sdh melakukannya, saya penyebut nya pembinaan dan pendampingan, sy sdh melakukan hampir 20 tahun di hampir seluruh wilayah Indonesia, Sulawesi, Kalimantan, Jawa timur dan Lampung. Sebagian berhasil sebagian tidak, mungkin karena tanpa didasari ilmu ilmu condev ini, olehnya saya coba untuk belajar lagi walau agak telat”

Saya: “Salam kenal pak Haryo. Wah bapak pengalamanya malah jauh lebih dari sekadar teori ni pak. Justru dari fasilitator seperti bapaklah kami para pelaku comdev mampu menemukan metode2 baru yang bisa disandingkan dan dimunculkannya teori2 baru yang lebih kontekstual pastinya.Kalau soal belajar saya rasa tidak ada kata terlambat kok pak. Justru pelaku comdev harus belajar banyak dari orang lapangan seperti pak Haryo 🙏🏻”

Si A: “Termasuk belajar dari kegagalan saya ya mba?!😁”

Saya; “Betul sekali pak. Dari kegagalan bapak bisa kami jadikan dasar atau pedoman untuk me redesain program tentunya untuk menghasilkan rekomendasi2 yg jauh lebih tepat. Saya sendiri salah satu org yg menganut prinsip bahwa untuk urusan comdev hasil bukan jadi orientasi utama, melainkan prosesnya yg perlu didiberi banyak polesan baik secara teroi maupun otodidak ketika berada di lapangan pak. Sehingga dengan demikian keberlanjutannya lebih mudah dipertanggungjawabnkan.Kalo kata saya biar g seperti program KKN, bangun tugu, bikin plang atau papan nama jalan trus udahan. Hehehe”

Si A: “Ya mba, mohon dibimbing saya untuk belajar ilmunya, saya kurang paham tentang istilah istilah, teory maupun metodologi nya, terkadang kendala  saya disitu, assessment, disain program dan pelaporan saya buat dengan sekedarnya, kedepannya saya ingin memperbaiki kendala kendala itu🙏”

Saya: “Baik pak. Kita akan sama sama belajar. kedepannya jika ada yang ingin bapak atau saya diskusikan silahkan saling japri saja ya pak. Terima kasih untum waktunya pak 🙏🏻”

Si A: “Ok mba, terimakasih kembali🙏”

Niat belajar seseorang tidak semestinya dihakimi oleh orang lain. apalagi jika orang tersebut sungguh-sungguh ingin belajar sesuatu dari kita. dan saya rasa berbagi ilmu itu tidak selamanya harus berbayar. berbagi ilmu tidak akan mengurangi ilmu yang dimiliki kita. gak usah pelit kalo soal ilmu mah, makin diberi makin nambah kok. gak usah takut kalau nanti ilmunya dicuri dan ditiru, bukannya baik ya? ehm, kalaupun akhirnya orang yang ngambil ilmu itu merasa berguna ya gpp, itu artinya baik. Siapapun yang mau belajar harus dhargai karena itu bagian dari hak mereka. kamu yang memiliki pemahaman atau ilmu lebih dalam bidang yang dibutuhkan orang lain saya rasa berkewajiban kok untuk membagikannya. Terima Kasih.

P43.6-M bridge in Dgte opens for bidding  

#PHinfo: P43.6-M bridge in Dgte opens for bidding  

DUMAGUETE CITY, Oct. 2 (PIA) -- The full span concrete bridge connecting barangays Batinguel and Bagacay along the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) office here will open for bidding on Oct. 10.

Dumaguete City Bids and Awards Committee confirmed this following the pre-bid conference participated in by several construction firms to clarify matters before they ultimately decide to make the bid for the P43.6-M infrastructure.

Dumaguete City Mayor Felipe Antonio Remollo said the proposed second bridge traversing Banica River will replace the old spillway so that it can be utilized even during flooding.

The structure will be high and sturdy enough to keep all motorists and residents along the river banks safe, said Remollo.

About five construction firms participated in the pre-bid conference presided by BAC Chairman and City Legal Officer Manuel Arbon with prospective bidders including Uy Condev Corporation, PhilSouth Builders, Supreme Mega Structure Builders Inc., VVER Construction and Mighty Hok Summit Construction and Development Corp.

Construction firms who were not present during the pre-bid conference can still participate and submit their bids not later than Oct. 10.

The winning bidder must agree to the stipulation in the contract that the construction of the bridge be completed in 303 working days.

Meanwhile, mobilization in the construction of the bridge in Colon at the back of Foundation University has started with the possible removal of electric posts this week to further clear the work site.

The City Government and the administration of Brgy. Taclobo along with the engineers of the project will continue to consult the affected residents to address their concerns as the construction work continues. (jct/PIA7 Negros Oriental with reports from CPIO Dems Demecillo)

Strong Sales In This $162 Million Project Has Resulted In The Fast Tracking Of The Project

CONSTRUCTION of the third tower within the $162 million Cambridge Residences development will start in February, with strong sales prompting the developer to fast-track the project.

The third stage of the four-tower project offers a mix of one, two and three-bedroom apartments priced from $330,000, with the 164 apartments in the first two towers sold out.

Eastview Australia project manager Graham Goldman said the third tower was scheduled to be completed by Condev Construction by August 2019.

“We expect Tower 3 will mirror the sales success that drove the sellout of the first two towers where buyers, particularly those buying their first home, were galvanised by the very reasonable price point,” Mr Goldman said.

“Another compelling feature is the location on the doorstep of Robina Town Centre … residents are just minutes from a major shopping, dining and entertainment complex, public and private hospitals, a major medical precinct and Robina Train Station.

“And they have easy access to the M1, connecting them with the wider Gold Coast region and Brisbane.”

The Agency director of projects Steven Chen said Tower 3 of Cambridge Residences offered some of the best value apartments on the Gold Coast, particularly for first home buyers and investors.

Tower 3 will consist of 127 apartments across 12 levels, with resident facilities including a swimming pool, gymnasium, barbecue area and basement parking.

Apartments range in size from 74sq m to 158sq m, including balcony and courtyard areas.

One bedroom apartments start from $330,000, with three bedroom apartments from $626,000.

Once completed, Cambridge Residences will consist of 386 apartments across four towers.

P20-M bridge seen to declog traffic in Dumaguete City

#PHnews: P20-M bridge seen to declog traffic in Dumaguete City

DUMAGUETE CITY -- The city government here has started the construction of a multimillion-peso bridge to replace a spillway that was damaged by Typhoon Pablo in late 2012.

Traffic along Colon Street has been closed to give way to the construction of a full span concrete bridge at the back of Foundation University. It will connect the villages of Taclobo and Bagacay, said City Public Information Officer Dems Rey Demecillo on Tuesday.

The Colon Bridge project is locally funded with some PHP20 million, he noted.

Mayor Felipe Antonio Remollo earlier said the contractor, Joint Venture of Jaime Ching Enterprises and Supreme Mega Structure Builders, Inc., must complete the project within 299 calendar days, “barring any fortuitous event”.

Meanwhile, the city government has scheduled the bidding for the BIR Bridge project on Oct. 10, according to Demecillo.

The budget for the project is pegged at around PHP43.6 million.

The full span concrete bridge will replace the existing spillway connecting the villages of Bagacay and Batinguel passing through the road where the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) office is located, hence the name of the bridge.

The BIR spillway was also damaged during the onslaught of Typhoon Pablo although it remains passable to four-wheel vehicles unlike the Colon spillway.

At least five construction firms participated in last week’s pre-bid conference, namely, Uy Condev Corporation, PhilSouth Builders, Supreme Mega Structure Builders, Inc., VVER Construction, and Mighty Hok Summit Construction and Development Corporation.

Both bridge projects across the Banica River are expected to declog the traffic in this capital city once they are completed as these connect to road arteries for those traveling to other parts of Negros Oriental without having to pass through the city’s main thoroughfares.

Residents welcomed the bridge projects because in the past, especially during typhoons or bad weather, both spillways would overflow and become impassable due to flooding of the Banica River. (PNA)

Ambisi Tidak Terkendali

Aku baru dua kali menapaki Wall Street Institu ,sebagai siswa baru disini aku sangat terkagum -kagum melihat metode pembelajaran disini.

Disinilah Pembelajaran androgogie secara real aku dapatkan.Bahwa orang dewasa itu harus berjuang dengan caranya sendiri untuk bertahan hidup dengan mepergunakan fasilitas tang di persiapkan.Inilah ku dapatkan di institute ini.

Pengajarnya begitu ramah dan santu.Sudah menerspakan excelent and frendly sistem,kenyamana adalah hal utama di institute ini. Ada gejolak yang tidak biasa setip kali aku berada disini,ambisi untuk mendirikan Taifur Institute sangat begitu kua,begitupun dengan kemajuan Comunity development Teko Fakultas Ilmu Pendidikan.

Rasanya aku akan memindahkan adik -adik di daerah binaan kesini. aku ingin mereka maju dan melihat peradaban,tapi itu hanya mimpim.Untuk sampai kesini membutuhkan biaya yang tidak sedikit. Ambisi itu terus mengelora untuk menbagin condev seperti Wall streeat.Aku mereasa bersalah kenapa dulu tidak serius mengkelola comdev saat masih menjabat dan mempuyai kekuasan penuh untuk membuat perubahan di comdev.Kini aku meresa sebagai penonton di comdev,padahal hati masih ingin untuk menjadi pemain guna perubahan masyarakat dan adik -adik di comdev teko

Sedih seakan tidak berdaya menjadikan Comdev teko Word Class Institute. Semoga tercapai.

Amin
