INTRODUCTION Ministry of Education, Youth and Sport has reached the final phase of Education Strategic Plan (ESP) 2014- 2018, which is aligned with the National Strategic Development Plan (NSDP), 2014-2018 of the Royal Government of the 5th Legislature of the National Assembly. Policies, strategies, programs and clusters of priority activities of MoEYS have been achieved to prepare for the implementation of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 2030. Monitoring and evaluation framework has defined responsibilities of the national and sub-national levels to jointly accomplish major tasks through eight-point reform measures introduced in 2014 and the progress of the fifteen-point reform from 2015 to 2018, as manifested through more hard work and better performance of students and teachers. Results of the sub-sector progress and AOP 2018 progress reviews are incorporated into the Congress Report to serve as the basis for the review of activities and targets of key performance indicators. Education Congress Report reflects progress, challenges and overall recommendations for MoEYS as a whole and for the seven sub-sectors including early childhood education, primary education, secondary and technical education, higher education, non-formal education, youth development, and physical education and sport. Outcomes of the Education Congress will be essential for the formulation of the Budget Strategic Plan and Annual Operational Plan. Quality of Education Congress has also been enhanced through more simplified, analytical and result- oriented consolidated reporting approach. In 2017-2018, MoEYS made the following major achievements: 2. PROGRESS 2.1. OVERALL ACHIEVEMENTS OF EDUCATION, YOUTH AND SPORTS 2.1.1. PROGRESS OF JOINT MONITORING INDICATORS MoEYS has achieved policies, strategies, programs, and clusters of priority activities through the following Joint Monitoring Indicators: Table 1: Progress of Joint Monitoring Indicators Results Actual Actual Target Actual Status 2017-2018 Result Indicators 2015-16 2017-18 2018-19 2018-19 Outcome 2014-2018: Completion rate in basic education is increased along with improved learning outcomes 1.

Primary promotion rate has risen steadily from 87% in 2015-2016 to 89.4% in 2018-2019. Reforms of early grade reading and math have driven a significant increase of promotion rate between 2015-2016 and 2018- 2019: From 83.5% to 85.3%, from 87.1% to 88.6% and from 87.0% to 89.7% for grade 1, grade 2 and 3 respectively. 1 Unofficial Translation Enrolment rate in lower secondary education has increased from 57.6% in 2016-2017 to 59.1% in 2018- 2019.

  • Douglas Sanders's Article
    5th Asian Law Institute Conference National University of Singapore, May 22 and 23, 2008 377 - and the unnatural afterlife of British colonialism Professor Douglas Sanders Chulalongkorn University, Mahidol University sanders_gwb @ yahoo.ca, May 6, 2008 Article 377 of the Indian Penal Code of 1860 made “carnal intercourse against the order of nature” an offence. This provision, or something very close to it, is presently in force in all former British colonies in Asia with the exception of Hong Kong. Even the article number, 377, is repeated in the current laws in force in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Myanmar, Singapore, Malaysia and Brunei - as if it were a special brand name, all of its own. Sri Lanka, Seychelles and Papua New Guinea have the key wording from article 377, but different section numbers. Parallel wording appears in the criminal laws of many of the former colonies in Africa. Surprisingly, viewing the matter from Asia, the 377 wording was never part of the criminal law in Britain. 377 is an amazingly successful law – if we judge it by its geographical spread and its longevity. Soon it will be 150 years old. How was it formulated? How did it come to apply in Asia? What is its role today? 2 First, we have to look back to the reign of Henry VIII and the break of the English church from Rome. I BACK TO BUGGERY British criminal laws covering homosexual acts began in 1534. Legislation in the reign of Henry VIII, prohibited …the detestable and abominable Vice of Buggery committed with mankind or beast.

  • Citation by the Provincial Government of South Sumatera
    CITATION BY THE PROVINCIAL GOVERNMENT OF SOUTH SUMATERA South Sumatera Province, with Palembang as the capital city, needs an effective development strategy to boost its ecenomic growth especially in terms of driving investments. Aside from the conservative approach which derives from the Long Term and Middle Term National Development Plan that focusing on pro poor – pro job – pro growth strategy, the Provincial Government of South Sumatera sets a more detailed and comprehensive development strategy in which sports is used as its foundation. The main strategy is to develop an integrated sports complex which has all the necessary components for hosting international multi sports events; such as competition venues, non-competition venues (athletes’ village with dining hall and sports science center), equipped with supporting infrastructures (water supply, solid waste treatment facility, and green open spaces). Eventually, the infrastructure needed will not only be built on the sports complex, but also in Palembang greater area, mostly regarding the transportation system that will support access for human and logistic to the sports complex. These infrastructures construction that were believed to be the engine to enhance economic growth in terms of driving investments. The development that later known as Jakabaring Sport City (JSC) stands on a 360 Ha of Provincial Government estate in which it not only plays the role as sports, education, and entertainment complex, but also as the water catchment area for Jakabaring district in Palembang with its artificial lake of 48 Ha. The massive development of the complex started on September 2011 after South Sumatera has been appointed as the host for the 26th South East Asian (SEA) Games 2011 together with Jakarta, the capital of the Republic of Indonesia.
