Cempaka Culture and Tourism: Country’s Heritage Crumbling

“… The Shift in Human Nature

You're starting to see integrity change. Awareness recalibrates integrity, and the Human Being who would sit there and take advantage of another Human Being in an old energy would never do it in a new energy. The reason? It will become intuitive, so this is a shift in Human Nature as well, for in the past you have assumed that people take advantage of people first and integrity comes later. That's just ordinary Human nature.

In the past, Human nature expressed within governments worked like this: If you were stronger than the other one, you simply conquered them. If you were strong, it was an invitation to conquer. If you were weak, it was an invitation to be conquered. No one even thought about it. It was the way of things. The bigger you could have your armies, the better they would do when you sent them out to conquer. That's not how you think today. Did you notice?

Any country that thinks this way today will not survive, for humanity has discovered that the world goes far better by putting things together instead of tearing them apart. The new energy puts the weak and strong together in ways that make sense and that have integrity. Take a look at what happened to some of the businesses in this great land (USA). Up to 30 years ago, when you started realizing some of them didn't have integrity, you eliminated them. What happened to the tobacco companies when you realized they were knowingly addicting your children? Today, they still sell their products to less-aware countries, but that will also change.

What did you do a few years ago when you realized that your bankers were actually selling you homes that they knew you couldn't pay for later? They were walking away, smiling greedily, not thinking about the heartbreak that was to follow when a life's dream would be lost. Dear American, you are in a recession. However, this is like when you prune a tree and cut back the branches. When the tree grows back, you've got control and the branches will grow bigger and stronger than they were before, without the greed factor. Then, if you don't like the way it grows back, you'll prune it again! I tell you this because awareness is now in control of big money. It's right before your eyes, what you're doing. But fear often rules. …”

Country’s Heritage Crumbling

The Jakarta Globe, Nurfika Osman, March 13, 2009

Up to 5,800 cultural sites across the archipelago have been left in disrepair and are in danger of falling apart due to continued neglect, an official said on Friday.

The director of archeological heritage at the Ministry of Culture and Tourism, Suroso, said that residents were growing increasingly apathetic toward their cultural heritage, and that if the trend continued, the country would be put at a disadvantage.

“Indonesia could lose its cultural heritage buildings,” he said. “But the most important thing is that Indonesia stands to lose its national identity if this neglect of cultural heritage is allowed to continue.”

Suroso added that the country would also face financial losses.

“If we maintain the heritage buildings, we will also get economic advantages as more people will visit us,” he said. He said money earned from tourism could be invested in maintenance of the sites to ensure ancient buildings would be protected.

“People now tend to build more buildings rather than maintaining our cultural heritage,” he said. “[Indonesians] also tend to love other country’s heritage more than their own.”

Suroso said that there were some 7,400 cultural heritage sites registered across the country, but only 1,600 of them were well maintained by local residents.

He said the lack of maintenance was partly caused by the country’s decentralization, meaning the central government was no longer fully responsible for the protection of the sites.

“But we still continue monitoring the protection of cultural heritage across the country,” he said. The state-run new agency Antara reported that Indonesia has allocated Rp 215 billion ($18 million) to maintain cultural heritage buildings across the country.
