Stowaway
in Garuda Flight
Mario Steve Ambarita,
21, was caught on Tuesday, April 7, as he emerged from a Garuda Indonesia plane
that had just landed at the Soekarno-Hatta International airport. What made him
suspicious was the fact that he was exiting from the plane’s wheel well, and
not through the door like everyone else.
What prompted Mario to do such a reckless thing? He said he simply wanted to see Jakarta, where he was born, and meet his long time idol — the president. He sneaked into a plane and fly 949 kilometers while sitting in the landing gear dock.
Mario admitted that he snuck into the plane before it took off from the Sultan Syarif Kasim II airport in Pekanbaru, Riau, in western Indonesia. And that he stayed in the wheel well during the 105-minute flight.
He arrived alive and well in Jakarta The airport clinic said Mario was fine but perhaps needed to recover from his unusual ordeal.
“We don’t know how he was able to enter the (restricted) area,” Garuda Indonesia’s vice president for corporate communications, Pujobroto, told Kompas.com. “He knew that the plane would stop for a moment before taking off. That was when he entered the plane through the wheel,” Pujobroto said.

Pekanbaru Jargon’s Changes
Jargon
is special words or expressions that are used by a particular profession
or group and are difficult for others to understand.
Pervioulsy, we know Pekanbaru has a jargon namely
Pekanbaru Kota Bertuah. In 2016 activist and students in Pekanbaru quite upset
with the changes jargon Pekanbaru Kota Bertuah be Pekanbaru Kota Madani. This problem
inflict many controversy amongst gove.rment, student activist,and traditional leaders.
Inspite of it controversional that inflict many
society and goverment think that changes the Jargon its good because as the
meaning of Madani is city containing religious community, civilized, quality,
and has progressive.
The name of Madani also clarify the
vision of the city's development Pekanbaru focused on the development of quality human
resources, among others through the fields of religion and education. Pekanbaru city
government also explain that the use of civil nickname meaning
becomes wider than Pekanbaru Kota Bertuah.
On the other hand,
many people who reject the changes jargon. The change was significant because
in reality does not match the vision and mission that has been set. For
example entertainment
venues open without any time limit, prostitution everywhere, and drugs
everywhere. And also people demanded the return of the article, from the
ancient city of Pekanbaru is Bertuah and this has been a teaching material in every school.
And the use of it means ignoring the historical value of the Bertuah
name.
As a result of Pro and Contra issues, Society expects the policy of the government
that the name of the city could be realized civil aims, but does not eliminate the elements of Malay culture.
