    Analysis of the topic for discussed from workshop


    On 1st day exactly on 20 April 2017 i attend the workshop along with my friends who also join too at LSPR Bali, and the first topic to discuss is about "Globalization's waves in history" and presented by Prof. Alexei Muraviev. He explained about how the globalization can affect the world and producing three waves of destabilizing globalization. I also learned about western model of globalization, modernity, asian history, and great silk road. The first wave from 1860-1914 Europe and North America were strongly affected by internationalisation. The flow of goods accelerated. Capital moved relatively freely between countries. In some respects financial integration was more pronounced than it is today. Even international migration was greater than it is today. Roughly 60 million people left Europe to seek their fortunes in the New World. The Second Wave is international regulations and organisations to support economic integration at the global level were created after World War II. Cooperation was based on the Bretton Woods Agreement of 1944.

    The USA was now the leading economy in the world and the dollar became the monetary basis of the financial system. The 'Bretton Woods system' meant that nations had fixed currency exchanges in relation to the US dollar, which in turn was fixed to the gold standard.

    We are now in a truly exciting phase of global economic development. Globalisation gives rise to a number of new business potentials. But business potentials are not discovered in the same way as one discovers a mineral deposit. Rather business possibilities are created in the way that one creates a work of art by combining a range of variables in a unique manner. The only thing that we can say for certain about the future's most successful international entrepreneurs is that we certainly cannot know what they will build their business ideas upon.

    Great silk road is a system of caravan routes crossing in ancient and middle age time Eurasian continent from Mediterranean Sea to China and influencing the emergence and development of trade and cultural ties between people and statehoods located along the way. Silk Road, also called Silk Route, ancient trade route, linking China with the West, that carried goods and ideas between the two great civilizations of Rome and China. Silk came westward while wools, gold, and silver went east. China also received Nestorian Christianity and Buddhism (from India) via the road.

    Originating at Xi’an (Sian), the 4,000-mile (6,400-km) road, actually a caravan tract, followed the Great Wall of China to the northwest, bypassed the Takla Makan Desert, climbed the Pamirs (mountains), crossed Afghanistan, and went on to the Levant; from there the merchandise was shipped across the Mediterranean Sea. Few persons traveled the entire route, and goods were handled in a staggered progression by middlemen.

    With the gradual loss of Roman territory in Asia and the rise of Arabian power in the Levant, the Silk Road became increasingly unsafe and untraveled. In the 13th and 14th centuries the route was revived under the Mongols, and at that time the Venetian Marco Polo used the road to travel to Cathay (China). It is now widely thought that the route was one of the main ways that plague bacteria responsible for the Black Death pandemic in Europe in the mid-14th century moved westward from Asia.

    The road now partially exists in the form of a paved highway connecting Pakistan and the Uygur Autonomous Region of Xinjiang, China. in 1999, which explored cultural traditions along its route and beyond as a means for connecting arts worldwide across cultures.

    The 2nd topic to discuss is "The emergence of new merchant class" by Sir Indra Kusumawardhana. I learned about the relationship between globalization and technology and they divided into two kinds such as time-space compression and time distanciation. He told that the most popular country to use social media in South East Asia and rank number one. Which is 259,1 million population who using the social media and the most activities likely to be done like facebook, twitter, instagram, path, snapchat, etc. Indonesian people mostly using social media not only to communicate with other people, but also they tend to doing their own business for example like online shopping, and many more.

    The 3rd topic to discuss is "How to trade with East & South East Asia" by Prof. Alexei Muraviev. He explained to me that East and Southeast Asia the world’s most ethno-culturally diverse region and the most likely to grow in economic importance will remain center stage for both economic cooperation and geopolitical competition in the near future. For China, many factors are increasing political uncertainty: a slowing economy; Beijing’s attempt to advance its primacy in Asia; a shrinking labor force as a result of population aging; and President Xi’s concentration of power. This uncertainty casts a shadow over the peace and prosperity of the region, since China is deeply integrated into the global economy and anchors the region economically but also selectively embraces and seeks to shape international norms and rules to advance its interests.

    China’s assertions of sovereignty on issues such as the South China Sea are provoking reactions among its neighbors and stirring nationalist sentiment at home that could reduce Beijing’s room for maneuver. The interplay between security competition, regime stability, and economic cooperation will color most regional interactions, with middle powers and smaller states alike seeking assurances against Chinese assertiveness that will not sacrifice economic opportunities with China; the risk of a less-robust Chinese economy is a further complication. The actions of the United States and Japan vis-à-vis China, as well as those of emerging powers like India and Indonesia, will also shape the assessment of risks and opportunities by countries in the region.

    In Northeast Asia, Beijing, Tokyo, and Seoul will remain economically interdependent, even while they improve their individual security capabilities. They will need to manage security risks resolutely and avoid security-dilemma dynamics and the reciprocal escalation that can occur when defensive measures are interpreted offensively.

    In Southeast Asia, growing economic interdependence will be the backdrop to great-power rivalry, internal strife, religious radicalization, and domestic political uncertainty, including struggles between democratization and authoritarianism. Some combination of these could threaten the open, stable, and developing regional community with stagnation, authoritarianism, and instability, but such outcomes remain unlikely. Nationalism will remain a powerful force but is unlikely to disrupt the region’s growing economic integration by itself.

    India, Indonesia, and Vietnam will become far more prominent players in Asia than in the past several decades, in part due to their own development achievements, rapidly growing trade relationships, and favorable demographic profiles relative to many of their competitors. The blueprint for economic integration in the region will be the ASEAN economic community and its goals of trade liberalization, harmonization, and improved customs procedures trade in services; investment and capital market liberalization; and infrastructure connectivity.

    Security challenges will motivate continued buildup and potential use of military instruments in the region. With economic growth at or near current levels, countries around the region will boost military spending, partly for domestic reasons and partly to hedge against China and uncertainties about US attention to the region. The maritime disputes in the East and South China Seas will continue, and ASEAN countries will spend greater resources cracking down on Islamic radicalism.

    On the next day 21 April 2017 for the 1st topic to discuss during workshop is "The raise of Indonesian philanthropy based on online social movement" by Sir Indra Kusumawardhana. He xplained that philanthropy is based on voluntary action for the common good and it's a traditioning. The non-profit sector has become a major economic and social force. The growth of philanthropy divided into four forms as local level, national level, international level, and global level.

    Example of e-movement is Arab spring. What were the reasons for the Arab Spring in 2011 : Arab Youth: Demographic Time Bomb, Unemployment, Ageing Dictatorship Corruption, National Appeal of the Arab Spring, Leaderless Revolt, Social Media, Rallying Call of the Mosque, Bungled State Response, Contagion Effect.

    Example of social movement is for like indonesia about the foundation for charity or to help people who still need a protection, and we also discuss about the crowd-sourcing and gender equality. Based on what we know, indonesian people can describe as "hyper-reality" condition now.

    The 2nd topic to discuss is about "Religion and trade in Asia" by Prof. Alexei Muraviev. I learned that trade is a part of economic activities beside the religion. Religions in asia divided into four kinds such as Vedic Religions it become to hinduism & iranian religion, Semitic Religions becomes to hebrew monotheism & islam, Chinese, and Japanese Sinto. The largest religion in Asia is Islam with approx. 1.1 billion adherents. Asia was the birthplace of many religions such as Islam,Christianity, Hinduism, Buddhism, Confucianism, Taoism, Jainism, Sikhism, Zoroastranism, but all major religious traditions are practiced there and new forms are constantly emerging.

    The 3rd or the last topic to discuss at class is "Russia open eyes to Asia" by Prof. Alexei Muraviev. We discussed that this year, Russia is expected to focus on expanding multilateral ties within Asia-centered groupings, as well as special partnerships with China and India.

    There was no shortage of Russian official pronouncements to strengthen relations with Asia. In late December, the Russian Foreign Ministry pledged to keep prioritizing strategic partnership with China as a “key element of global and regional stability.” The ministry also noted strategic partnership with India as well as the RIC (Russia, India, China) trilateral forum.

    This year, relations with Asia-centered groupings is due to remain Moscow’s priority. Russia’s new foreign policy blueprint, approved in November 2016, prioritizes multilateral ties within the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO), BRICS, RIC, as well as ties with ASEAN.

    Last year, SCO finalized entry of India and Pakistan into the grouping that included Russia, China, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan. Moscow has long argued that the SCO expansion would serve to strengthen the international status of the organization. Russia and other SCO member states also approved a mid-term vision of the organization’s development. At the summit meeting of the SCO in Tashkent, Uzbekistan on June 23-24, the grouping adopted a plan of action for 2016-2021, as well as the SCO development blueprint till 2025.

    In 2017, Russia is due to start implementing yet another mid-term plan to forge stronger ties with the 10-country Association of Southeast Asian Nations. Last May, the Russian Black Sea resort city of Sochi hosted the Russia-ASEAN summit. The gathering adopted a 5-year plan of action aimed at strengthening their strategic partnership.

    The last day of workshop on 22 April 2017, actually we are free from the lesson at lspr bali, but we need to present something from what we learn during our workshop day. So each of group must prepare to present and also create a social campaign. My group present about the HIV campaign "HIV is the problem not the people" there's me, Steffy, Vania, Triana, Kartika, Nills in one group.

    Scientists identified a type of chimpanzee in Central Africa as the source of HIV infection in humans. They believe that the chimpanzee version of the immunodeficiency virus (called simian immunodeficiency virus, or SIV) most likely was transmitted to humans and mutated into HIV when humans hunted these chimpanzees for meat and came into contact with their infected blood. Studies show that HIV may have jumped from apes to humans as far back as the late 1800s. Over decades, the virus slowly spread across Africa and later into other parts of the world. We know that the virus has existed in the United States since at least the mid- to late 1970s.

    After each of group present their presentation and campaign, one by one got the certificate during the workshop from Lspr and HSE Russia. It means we are officially done with the workshop project! :)

    Personal experiences from the entire trip


    During the program of workshop, I had so much experience in Bali and learned so many things there. Not only that but I also have new friends, not only friends in the same country but also from different countries.

    Starting from the first day while attending this workshop, I feel so happy and enjoy it because I learned a lot and got new knowledge and benefit from the mentors who gave me the lesson that i've never learned before. When we following this program, everything is so appreciated by what the mentors taught us and not only that after the lesson we never forget to exchange ideas about the lesson.


    After the workshop done, we all finally intend to have fun together and enjoy the sunset in Bali.
    Basically, after joining this program I feel so happy and excited because there's something that i just got and I really enjoy every day with other friends. I'm so grateful to join this workshop and it could be the best moments that i've never forget in my life. ^_^
