00:00:11
Hello. Peace be upon you.
00:00:14
Thank God we meet on this bright day.
00:00:18
I am here to introduce you
00:00:22
to a very special course that is only available at UI.
00:00:26
Why special? Later we'll...
00:00:28
talk a little about its origins.
00:00:32
But if you look
00:00:33
at the current era,
00:00:38
MPKT, or Integrated Personality Development Course,
00:00:44
is important.
00:00:47
Many incidents in Indonesia, which we can see
00:00:51
on TV every day,
00:00:52
occur due to deviations from bad personalities.
00:00:57
This is what I think we need to develop at UI
00:01:01
to instil the values at UI.
00:01:06
So actually this course is
00:01:08
a personality development program in higher education
00:01:12
which is outlined in a course.
00:01:15
If I may say,
00:01:17
the origins of MPKT are Liberal Arts like in the US.
00:01:22
But, we adopt UI characteristics into it.
00:01:24
In other words, it's been made to fit us in Indonesia.
00:01:29
That's the origin of this course.
00:01:34
At UI, in particular,
00:01:36
the first part of MPKT is to instill UI values.
00:01:42
[clears throat] What are UI's values?
00:01:46
The first one is honesty.
00:01:48
Of the nine values, the first is honesty.
00:01:51
You can be talented, you can be smart,
00:01:55
you can be skilled, you can be...
00:01:59
tech savvy and so on.
00:02:01
But if you're not honest, your value will be zero.
00:02:05
So the first basic value of UI is honesty.
00:02:11
The second UI value…
00:02:13
Justice.
00:02:16
We can have a long discussion about this
later in some other time.
00:02:21
The third is trustworthiness.
00:02:23
So, you have to be…
00:02:26
a trustworthy person.
00:02:30
The fourth value is Dignity.
00:02:34
Number five is responsibility.
00:02:36
To make it simple,
00:02:39
when I was studying in secondary school,
00:02:43
I used mnemonic to memorize the colors of rainbow
00:02:48
Do you remember ROYGBIV? Red, orange, and so on.
00:02:52
I made the mnemonic of the first five UI values.
00:02:57
HONFRUSTED. What's that?
00:03:00
Honest, Fair, Trusted.
00:03:04
Hon.. F.. Rusted.
00:03:08
Fourth value: Dignity.
00:03:11
I remember it as "digging", so I immediately remembered "dignity".
00:03:15
The fifth value is responsibility, shortened to "sponge".
00:03:19
So, Honefrusted digging sponge. Funny, huh?
00:03:25
Why are the first five UI values important?
00:03:27
Because these five values refer to our personal values.
00:03:31
The sixth to ninth UI values are
00:03:34
togetherness,
00:03:36
openness, academic freedom and scientific autonomy,
00:03:40
and compliance with rules.
00:03:43
So, UI values six to nine are more institutional in nature.
00:03:47
The first five values are honesty,
00:03:52
justice, trustworthiness,
00:03:54
dignity and responsibility.
00:03:56
UI Basic Values six to nine are more institutional.
00:04:01
Namely, togetherness, openness, academic freedom,
00:04:05
and compliance with rules.
00:04:08
The nine UI Values must be adopted by everyone
00:04:13
in Universitas Indonesia.
00:04:17
Especially, first-semester
00:04:21
or first-year students.
00:04:23
They need to know about UI Values.
00:04:29
Once again I emphasize. The first value is honesty.
00:04:35
Next, what will we get
00:04:38
in MPKT course?
00:04:42
MPKT is a course
00:04:45
in which way of learning is somewhat different from other courses.
00:04:48
The main method is Student-Centered Learning.
00:04:51
What does it mean?
00:04:52
This means that students
00:04:57
should be active.
00:04:59
So, if a teacher teaches
00:05:01
by giving lectures all the time,
00:05:04
it means the teacher is the active one.
00:05:06
While It should be the students
who're supposed to be active.
00:05:10
After students take the MPKT course,
00:05:13
After this course,
students are expected to stay active.
00:05:19
Therefore, it is of essence
00:05:21
that you learn actively.
00:05:23
The first method is Collaborative Learning.
00:05:27
This means that students collaborate
00:05:30
to learn a topic.
00:05:33
The second method, Problem-based Learning.
00:05:35
What's that? You will be given an issue.
00:05:38
In groups, students discuss
00:05:41
in a way to find solutions to the issues obtained.
00:05:46
So it's not the conventional way, the teacher writes on the board,
00:05:51
then the students listen, take notes, and so on. Not like that.
00:05:56
You are given a problem,
00:05:58
discuss it in a group,
00:06:00
find a way to solve the problem.
00:06:02
Then, Group Discussion.
00:06:05
In this MPKT course,
00:06:10
you are emphasized on discussing.
00:06:12
So, it will always be divided into groups and you discuss
00:06:15
with your friends.
00:06:17
Then remember this.
00:06:20
Often in the group, there are free riders.
00:06:25
Free riders are parasites.
00:06:28
They're not as involved as others
in group work, but expected to get scores.
00:06:31
They thought everyone gets the same score
since it's a group activity.
00:06:35
They're wrong.
00:06:37
Everyone must participate equally.
00:06:40
Those who are usually passive
should learn how to be participative.
00:06:43
The active ones push the passive peers to get involved.
00:06:46
Then they work together to be proactive.
00:06:50
By everyone participating,
you'll get more ideas and insights.
00:06:53
That's the system at MPKT.
00:06:58
You learn how to collaborate and be active.
00:07:05
Not so many courses have such a system
00:07:08
at both universities and secondary schools in Indonesia.
00:07:13
This MPKT course equals to,
00:07:17
if I'm not mistaken, around five or six credits.
00:07:21
Almost every meeting takes the form of a discussion.
00:07:26
We continue talking about MPKT.
00:07:30
It is hoped that ideas will emerge from MPKT.
00:07:35
Creative ideas, especially from young people,
00:07:39
students aged 18 to 22 years.
00:07:44
Now I want to give an example.
00:07:48
So if I may say,
00:07:51
you definitely know that at university there are three principles.
00:07:54
Education, research and community service.
00:07:58
I put myself now in community service. Why?
00:08:04
Because at universities it is rare for anyone to become a community servant.
00:08:10
In education, everyone teaches.
00:08:11
As for research, because now you get a credit score,
00:08:15
many people want to do research.
00:08:17
Few are willing to place themselves as community servants.
00:08:21
Therefore, I put myself there.
00:08:24
20 years ago,
00:08:26
I first said, "I am a community servant."
00:08:30
"I'm no longer a researcher," I said so.
00:08:33
Even though I am still doing research
00:08:35
from time to time.
00:08:39
When I said that,
00:08:41
I didn't know yet in what way I wanted to serve.
00:08:45
But because I said it,
00:08:49
the idea came up. A good idea of course.
00:08:51
I used to research about baby incubators.
00:08:54
Then I developed it.
00:08:56
Now I have improved it
00:08:59
to an activity of lending baby incubators for free.
00:09:04
These incubators are available from Banda Aceh to Jayapura.
00:09:08
This means if we have good ideals, goals or vision,
00:09:13
Vision is our goal, in 15 years what do we want to be,
00:09:18
We are serious about pursuing our vision.
00:09:23
This incubator lending is available in 156 cities per January 2025.
00:09:30
A lot, right? But that's still half of the target.
00:09:34
The target is 300 cities.
00:09:37
You can see our activities at www.inkubator-gratis.org.
00:09:45
Primarily, this activity is supported
00:09:48
by volunteer agents in each city or district.
00:09:53
Who are the volunteer agencies that support this activity?
00:09:58
Usually,
00:10:01
when you have finished being a student, finished your Bachelor's or Master's Degree,
00:10:07
or maybe a Doctoral Degree,
00:10:08
you then look for work.
00:10:12
When we are hired, of course, we ask for a salary.
00:10:17
After five years of work, we ask for a salary increase.
00:10:21
After ten years of work, we ask for more facilities.
00:10:24
After 15 years of work ask for insurance.
00:10:27
What does it mean? Take a look at the keywords that keeps coming up here.
00:10:30
Ask for a salary then ask for a salary increase,
00:10:33
ask for facilities, ask for insurance.
00:10:36
All about asking, right?
00:10:39
00:10:41
So if we have this mindset, it means we continue to demand.
00:10:45
Our volunteer agents are people who don't demand any more.
00:10:50
That doesn't mean it doesn't work, but they are neutral in the middle.
00:10:53
Let's say they're zeroed.
00:10:55
Then, they got better than zero. What does it mean?
00:10:59
If the characteristic that I called bad earlier was demanding,
00:11:05
the volunteer agents in 156 cities are no longer the group that demands.
00:11:11
They've changed
00:11:15
and become someone who is happy to help.
00:11:19
Then, they're happy to give donations, alms, endowments, and so on.
00:11:24
Then, they want to serve the poor.
00:11:31
Not just poor people, but also marginalized people.
00:11:35
Who is classified as marginalized?
00:11:40
For example: disabled people, sick people,
00:11:44
children, babies,
00:11:46
in some cases, women are also included. The point is people who need help.
00:11:51
They are assisted by volunteer agents
00:11:54
and volunteer agents are also donors,
00:11:57
so they can help premature babies spread across 156 cities.
00:12:04
Initially my research activities
00:12:09
created an incubator product,
00:12:12
now it has been developed into
00:12:15
a product to help the community, even to empower the community.
00:12:22
That's what's special if we have a goal.
00:12:26
If we have good goals, God will definitely help.
00:12:31
But remember, God's help takes various forms.
00:12:36
If I say, often His help is in the form of a steep path,
00:12:42
or a climbing path, or a slippery path.
00:12:45
This means that God gives many trials or tests.
00:12:50
If we successfully handle
00:12:55
the trial or test, then we will move up a level
00:12:59
to achieve our goals.
00:13:03
If you see,
00:13:06
I started lending free baby incubators in 2012.
00:13:12
In the first year of course the coverage was only Depok.
00:13:15
The furthest coverage was Pasar Minggu.
00:13:17
In the second year, the number started to multiply.
00:13:20
You can see the peak was in 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic.
00:13:27
The peak was 971 then fell again.
00:13:30
Now, approximately 1000 babies are helped a year.
00:13:33
Can you imagine, as of December 2023 there were 6,500 babies helped.
00:13:39
This is possible because we want to help others.
00:13:44
So, the true meaning of life is helping others.
00:13:49
00:13:53
See the effects of our free incubator program.
00:13:58
The babies are helped and cared for at home, and the mother is happy.
00:14:02
Then, because it's free, their financial burdens are also alleviated.
00:14:06
Then the overall impact, the infant mortality rate decreased.
00:14:11
That's because 80% of babies who die are premature babies
00:14:16
who have to be helped to warm them using an incubator.
00:14:21
Many underprivileged groups are helped.
00:14:25
This is the advantage that we have a vision which we then try to achieve.
00:14:31
God willing, God will help
00:14:36
us achieve our dreams or goals.
00:14:41
In fact,the objective of the lecturers at MPKT
00:14:47
are not only to educate you this semester,
00:14:51
but also to achieve Indonesia Emas 2045. Why is that?
00:14:56
Because at MPKT you are also taught leadership.
00:15:00
How to be responsible leaders.
00:15:04
Leaders with integrity.
00:15:06
Just imagine, if your age is between 18-20 years now,
00:15:10
in 2045, you will be around 40 years old.
00:15:14
You will be the future leader.
00:15:16
Now young leaders are starting to emerge who are able to defeat the incumbents.
00:15:21
In some places, young people can beat incumbents.
00:15:25
This means that young people who have good leadership are emerging
00:15:31
and they are liked by the people.
00:15:35
The proof is that they were able to defeat the incumbent in the recent elections.
00:15:41
Indonesia Emas 2045 cannot be achieved
00:15:45
if those who lead do not have integrity.
00:15:48
MPKT is a medium for us at UI to teach
00:15:53
and train you to become leaders with integrity.
00:15:58
If a leader has integrity,
00:16:02
he will definitely be anti-corruption and try to eliminate corruption.
00:16:08
Now we enter the final part.
00:16:13
My advice to you, the students.
00:16:16
the ultimate goal is...
00:16:18
Strengthen your identity.
00:16:20
The main aim of education
00:16:23
is not so that you become an expert or scientist.
00:16:30
But for you to be who you really are.
00:16:33
So, let your true self emerge.
00:16:36
It's not about imitating other people or following other people.
00:16:42
You have to show your true self.
00:16:44
That's what MPKT is trying to help with.
00:16:48
As I said earlier,
00:16:51
set your goals, or what I call a vision.
00:16:55
What do you want to be in the next 10-15 years?
00:16:58
Of course, your aspirations are good, right?
00:17:00
If your aspirations are good, God will definitely help you.
00:17:03
That way, you don't have time to gossip or do useless things.
00:17:09
To achieve your goals,
00:17:12
to achieve those good goals, you have to focus.
00:17:16
Naturally, one day you become a scholar,
00:17:20
become a leader, director, and so on,
00:17:25
you must have integrity.
00:17:29
Your behaviour must reflect spiritual values.
00:17:35
You become a human being who has ethics.
00:17:37
That is the main point of the MPKT course.
00:17:43
That's some insights that I can share at the moment.
00:17:47
Thank You. Wasalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh.
