Educational System of Indonesia

• The Educational system in Indonesia is similar to
  the education in the United States. The
  educational system is divided into two part known

  divided into three levels again. The three levels
  of the formal section are Primary, Secondary, and
  Tertiary education.

  The grade is also known as Kindergarten, although
  this part prepares children for primary school it
  is not mandatory. Most pre-schools are attended
  for one year and are mostly private schools.
  Children ages 7-12 are enrolled into elementary
  school which in Indonesian is Sekolar Desar .
  Elementary school is to be attended for six years
  and all schools are public, similar to the
  United States

10
Middle school is also known as Sekolah Menengah
Pertama and is for ages 13-15. it takes three
years to complete middle school. Middle school is
part of the primary education and prepares
students for the secondary part which is high
school. Secondary Education is known as Sekolah
Menegah Atas (High School). High school can be
completed or not. The national law states that
citizens do not have to attend high school due to
needing only 9 years of education. Tertiary
Education is the graduation of high school,
proceeding into attending a university.

10 Year Plan For Indonesia

• Strengthen the prevention against illegal
  logging of Indonesias f forests as it is by
  far one of the most beneficial resources the
  people of Indonesia have.
• Invest a substantial amount of the money that
  Indonesia gets from trade into the education
  system enforcing the plan that every child in
  Indonesia, boy or girl gets primary, secondary
  and tertiary levels of education. This will
  definitely increase the amount of women in the
  work force, eventually gaining an equal amount
  of respect.
• Prostitution and Human Trafficking are huge
  problems in Indonesia, however the only thing
  that can be done to deal with these problems
  are to strengthen the police force, and it is
  currently known that the Indonesian police force
  is lowering its corruption level.
• Basically, Indonesia has all the resources, and
  the plans for the future going in the right
  way. The only thing needed is to secure their
  prosperous future and with its recent boost in
  economy and the nations optimism, this can be
  done easily.
