Indonesian Transmigration
The transmigration policy of Indonesia, initiated by the Dutch in the
1950s, consisted of moving millions of Indonesians from the densely
populated inner islands to the less densely populated Indonesian outer
islands.
Why Indonesia adopted a migration policy
[IMAGE]Indonesia's transmigration policy was adopted to relieve
congestion from the inner islands of Indonesia such as Java, Mandura
and Bali and to achieve a more balanced demographic development.
Java and Mandura have 7% of the total land area of Indonesia. However
the very uneven distribution of population means these two islands
alone hold 65% of Indonesia's population. Problems have aroused from
the large densities of people. Birth rates are high producing a large
numbers of young people; despite encouraged family planning. This
contributes to an annual population growth rate of 2.3%. Growth of
families has led to repeated sub-division of the land. Between 1973
and 1980 the percentage of landless farmers increased by 11.7% from
3.2% to 14.9%.
Improving the standard of living of the inhabitants of the inner
islands was another aim of the migration policy. It was intended that
unemployment of the landless labourers (due to land subdivision) and
the urban unemployed be improved. Food production was hoped to
increase as well as the promotion of regional development and national
security.
The outer islands were chosen due to the low densities of population
and the amount of land for settlement. Transmigration exploited the
potential of the outer islands.
What the programme entailed
Although in the beginning of the programme it was estimated 48 million
people from Java alone would be moved within a 35-year period, a more
realistic figure was later set of 2 million people every 5 years.
Transmigration takes place from the islands Java, Mandura, Bali and
Lombok to Sumatara, Kalimantan, Sulawesi and Irian Jaya. Between 1950
and 1984 Sumatara received 65% of transmigrants, Kalimantan received
18%, Sulawesi 14% and Irian Jaya 3%.
Migrating families have to fit a certain criteria. Each family must be
healthy and all under the age of 40, preferably married with two-four
As a supervisor in the military, I encountered an airman who had all the right qualifications according to the Air Force, but he was not able to complete his contracted term of six years. He survived basic training and a pretty intense two month technical school, but he only lasted two years in the Air Force before he was asked to leave. To work in the Public Affairs career field, he had to score well on the military entrance exam which means he demonstrated the cognitive abilities – a usual predictor of success. However, he was separated from the Air Force because of his poor social skills. This paper will discuss whether the airman's Emotional Intelligence (EI) could have been improved and the importance of a high EI to an organization.
Migration is not just about arrival, but also departure and circulation’ (Raghuram and Erel, 2014, p. 150). Explain how different sorts of evidence in DD102 have been used to support this claim.
Emotional intelligence is the ability to understand how to manage and express your emotions, develop and maintain good social relationships, and think clearly and solve problems under pressure. Emotional intelligence is a foundational skill, and when you work on it it tends to affect many other behaviors that you might have otherwise worked at on your own. Emotions are the primary driver of our behavior – emotional events is what motivates us to act. There are three emotional competencies that are important in emotional intelligence: self-reflection, self-regulation, and empathy. These form the foundation for all competencies and skills. Some of the top behaviors and qualities of employees with a high emotional intelligence include admitting
Children could only be sent to isolated schools, and in 1924 migration from Japan was ended by and large.
Emotional intelligence is the ability to gauge your emotions as well as the emotions of those around you, to make a distinction among those emotions, and then use that information to help guide your actions (Educated Business Articles , 2017). It also helps us consciously identify and conceive the ways in which we think, feel, and act when engaging with others, while giving us a better insight to ourselves (Educated Business Articles , 2017). Emotional Intelligence defines the ways in which we attain as well as retain information, setting priorities, in addition to regulating our daily actions. It is also suggested that as much as 80% of our success in life stems from our
In theory, the left and right hemisphere of the brain process diverse information to the corpus collosum. The corpus collosum will consecutively process information about what the left and right brain identify and then generate the conclusion. Both sides of the brain have its own specialized function to interpret the information but it cannot comprehend the same way. A research experiments conducted by Roger Sperry, validate the characteristics of each side of the brain. The left hemisphere of the brain is logic. It main focuses is language, critical thinking, numbers, reasoning, and objective. The right hemisphere is more creativity. It abilities include expressive, recognizing, music, reading emotions, color, images, intuition, and subjective.
Emotional Intelligence (EI) has been one of the popular concepts nowadays. However, the EI conceptualization varied between researchers, resulting in distinct types of EI theory proposed. These theories differ in the conceptualization of EI and its measurement instrument. The ability theory proposed by Mayer and Salovey (1997) suggests that EI consists of the ability to appraise and express, regulate and utilize emotion. It proposed four constructs that characterize all the abilities that could add to an individual’s EI. These building blocks are in a chain of command, in which, every level integrate with one another and constructed the competence of the earlier competence. Another perspective on EI is the mixed model EI theory. The mixed model theory proposed that EI includes mental capabilities, dispositions, and characteristics (Bar-On, 1997; Goleman, 1995). For instance, EI is believed to comprise of motivation, emotion and cognition that includes some human characteristics such as faith, positivism and selflessness. However, Mayer and Salovey’s ability model is said to be the most mentioned and be acquainted with by many other scientific researchers compared to any other models as the theoretical foundation of the model is concrete and vindicated (Matthews et al., 2002).
Emotional Intelligence is the ability of awareness and understanding of an individual towards the others signal and emotion, in order to display a positive and accurate feedback. Identify effectively human being’s reaction and emotional would prepare the leaders to handle with different situation in an impassive manner. Emotional Intelligence indicate its self in five categories: self-awareness, self-regulation, motivation, empathy, and social skills.
Immigrants moved from one country to another would have effective physical and intangible resources in form of skills, knowledge, expertise and experience. It is also important to reveal that persons who have optimum resources move from one country to another country so they have strong financial position to live in foreign countries. It is realized the immigration has positive impact on foreign countries because immigrants provide best services for economy growth. Migration would have effective platform to contribute for success of economy if resources have been utilized effectively and efficiently with aim to contribute for economic growth. Australia has implemented effective migration policy to encourage the foreigners to move from their country to Australia. The pointy system under this policy has four categories to evaluate the foreigners to know about capability for getting migration visa.
Emotional intelligence has been coined by many theorists and had been the subject of much literature, controversy, and scrutiny. Emotional intelligence is defined as “a set of competencies that distinguishes how people manage feelings and interactions with others. It is the ability to identify one’s own emotions, as well as those of one’s co-workers or employees” (Goleman, Boyatzis, & McKee, in Pierce & Newstrom (Eds.), 2008, p. 180). The author will review the definition and attributes of a successful, emotionally intelligent, morally competent leader. Comparisons will be made between leaders which demonstrate emotional intelligence to those which are void of moral intelligence. The conclusion is that leaders who act with high moral intelligence produce consistently high performance result.
This test had two parts; a self- report portion and an ability portion. The test assessed my ability to recognize the emotions of others and my own (“Emotional Intelligence Test”, n.d., Summary). My overall assessment results for the Emotional Intelligence Test was 119. According to the assessment, I am able to comprehend and respond to emotions. Although I have some understanding in emotional intelligence, the test highlighted areas in which improvements were needed. In the next section I will review my development with EI in relation to the following domains: relationship , tolerance, flexibility, self-management, and emotional
While working for the airline industry I encountered many personalities. Colleagues that worked only a few months with the similar qualifications took the lunge and applied to managerial positions. When promoted, it made me wonder what set them apart from other candidates, others with even more qualifications. What I noticed was similar, in those that were promoted, was their ability to resolve conflict and mentorship qualities. These qualities what is known as Emotional Intelligence. In Inter-Act, Professor Rudolph Verderber and Professor Kathleen Verderber quote Dr. Peter Salovey and Dr. John Mayer’s studies, emotional intelligence is “the ability to monitor your own and other’s emotions and to use this information to guide your communications”
The right side of the brain is good at imaginative and expressive acts. Its work is to process information for instance recognizing faces, reading emotions, expressing emotions, images, color, and creativity, just to mention but a few (Cherry, 2012). Right brain thinkers retain more information from visual experiences. On the other hand, the left side of the brain has a number of functions, which involve language, logic, and analytical thinking. The left side of the brain processes information such as; language, logic, reasoning, numbers, and critical thinking (Cherry 2012). These brain functions affect the left side of the brain, and decision-making. Both sides of the brains enhance the learning and thinking process as the brains incorporated their functions. Both sides of the brain participate in a balanced manner during the lear...
Self-awareness is the ability to know the internal state of oneself by understanding instincts and inclinations of others. What others feel affects us, makes us feel just as happy or vulnerable. Understanding those feelings is a psychological process which results in a behavioral response. Emotional Intelligence is defined as “one’s ability to know, feel and judge emotions in cooperation with a person’s thinking process for behaving in a proper way, with ultimate realization of happiness in him or others” it’s just a small part of what makes a person intelligent and more important to their personality. I personally don’t think I’m an emotionally intelligent person, I’ll get angry and sad easily and there is no way of controlling my emotions. Although, I motivate myself to do many things like work over forty hours a week, go to the gym and go out, anything that’ll keep my mind and body satisfied. Studies showed that people with higher emotional intelligence end up happier and reach their goals. I am not emotionally intelligence but I believe in success and with everything that happened in my life and the way it affected me makes me work twice as
Since 2005, Japanese government has been changing the immigration policy because of several reasons. First, as the population
