  The coming of fasting Ramadhan month in our country is started 23rd March 2023 when it will leave from raining or wet season to dry one. Most of Indonesia people who are Muslims do fasting in the holy month. They are accustomed to having it annually.  Kids start fasting a quarter  day until they effort to do full day. It needs about 15 hours for fasting. Most rice stalls are closed but few of them are still open with cloth cover.  Muslim people increase their belief during in Ramadhan month. They wear polite dress, perform pray 5 times in a day, help each other and the other good deed. Fasting in our county is easier than abroad, for intance: long duration of fasting , eating and drinking everywhere, and other bad obstacles in tranparant clothes, dating aptitude.

  Muslim has 5 pillars, namely:  one, we declare " there is no God except Allah SWT and Prophet Muhammad SAW as His Messenger" two, pray 5 times a day three, give zakat al mal four, do fasting in the month of Ramadan five, go to Makkah (pilgrimage) Related to fasting in Ramadan month, should muslim do fasting? Of course, if they are faithful people. How about? A pregnant woman, baby, kids, old people, sick person, menstruation girl, crazy person, long traveller are not fasting.

  In 1992, I knew the history of PGRI from my lecturer, Mr. Rusmadi at Tuban teachers college. He explains it clearly. When I became an English teacher, I have joined a member of Indonesia Teachers Association since 1997. The association helps us to be a teacher assistant in 2004. Then, it is proved to make teachers and lectuters' welfare named certification.  I become a chief of PGRI at SMAN 5 Tuban with 50 members. Some of my colleagues have passed being  civil servant officers PPPK becaused of PGRI struggle. Last but not least, I also learn English for Teachers with PGRI batch A and batch B. I also try writing some articles or books in order to be a productive writer. Thanks PGRI.

  What is your ambition in life to be? A doctor, a pilot, a soldier,  a lawyer, a director, a secretary, an accountant, a clerk, a seller. Are you going to be a teacher? Of course not. Why? Because the job needs patient,  generous, simple, honest.We spend lots time but the result is little, even nothing.  Do you remember about Oemar Bakri's story? A teacher who always wears simple uniform rides a bicycle everyday. He is keen on reading books as his hobby. His house is quite small where he lives with family. Even though he lives, he happy to teach his students. Let's compare with another profession, for instance: a doctor who has a big house, wear expensive  dresses, ride a car, eat nutrition food, travel abroad. From whom do they learn about health, science, knowledge, medicine, politics, law, economy, trading? Teachers educate students how to read, write, count, differentiate good and bad aptitude, make good deed for parents, society and nation. Teachers are proud of their stu

  Students go to schools or campuses in order to study some subjects, have new knowledge, develop their ability and talents. After studying some lessons, teachers or lecturers give them a  test. It can be oral or written test. Is the test still needed for both educators and students? The main purpose of test  is used for evaluation how far the students can understand and master materials given. How about having bad result? Do the teachers or lecturers ready give more tests?  If the students have never understood the  material, on the other hand, they like playing music, painting, sport, etc. Are there relationship between the failure of students and teachers or lectuters capability? All teachers and lecturers have graduated from university degree. They have also got long experience in teaching and learning activities. It can be called an expert. However, their students are still failed. They dislke the boring lessons. They want to play football, basket ball, volley ball all the time. S

There has not been recruitment for civil servant officers since 2005, except: the changing for retired teachers only. And, the condition is continued until corona virus dicease (covid 19) spread in the world. Then, pandemic has gone after all fund and budget spend for covid 19. We try hard to make our condition better. In education, teachers teach their students in the online class, even though they have never done it before. It surely caused many problems, such as: bad networking, no handphone until lost learning for our students. Indonesia Teachers Association (PGRI) commitee wish members become welfare. It is a pity, a teacher is paid a hundred rupiah per month. Then PGRI discusses with the minister of education and representative of X commission how to solve the problem. Last but not least, the government promises to give opportunity a million teachers to be a civil servant officer with certain contract (PPPK). The first and second recruitment have problems, exactly placement. The

  Education is important thing for our lives in order to be welfare. After finishing from school or university, people can choose any career to earn living. I am sure everyone has hobby (hobbies), so do I. If I am keen on science books, melody songs, polite dress; I will probably become a civil servant officer like a teacher, a policeman or a soldier. On the other hand, a person who likes comic,magazine, fiction books, wearing casual dress and jeans; perhaps s/he become an artist. How about salary? A civil servant officer has monthly salary from government about 5 million. A singer is paid when s/he sings some songs 5 million per hour. Let's compare the income. Who has simple and glamour life? How many fans do they have?
