beneficent and Mercyfull
First of all let us praise to Allah

the darkness into the brightness.
Ladies and gentlemen
Let me introduce my self, my name Laily
Qidriana from Vocational High School Migas Cepu. I’m standing here, I would
like to deliver my speech and the title is “Harsh punishment should be applied to students who cheat during test or
an examination”.
We see, cheating has been
popular in the Indonesian education. Students do cheat during exams by looking
at the notes, friend’s answer, working together with a friend, or using the
search engine that we call "mbah
google"
According to me, cheating
activities have a negative impact on the character building. I hope you have
same opinion. If cheating is done continuously, there are no new generation of
people who clean and characterless, it’s impossible right ? because of, the
impact of cheating is the inhibition of creativity, make lazy, hopeless, and no
responsibility. And one of the impact is will grow the corruptors. whether you
still remember this song? “Andai ku Gayus Tambunan, yang bisa pergi ke
Bali. Semua keinginannya pasti bisa terpenuhi. Lucunya di negri ini hukuman
bisa dibeli. Kita orang yang lemah pasrah akan keadaan”
That
is one example of the wrong character building. Back to the problem of
cheating, institution of education was rather support the students to do
cheating. As examples of current national examination, the invigilator allow
examinees to cheat. there are also some teacher asked the clever student to
provide answers to other students who are less proficient. So the students of
their school order to pass 100% and not embarrassing the school. It is far away
from the purpose and function of true education. True education is as a
cultural transformation, the process of personal formation, the process of
preparation of citizens, and for the preparation of labor.
How
to know the ability of the students? Yes, from test or examination. Accordance
with the function and purpose of education, examination should not only be
measured from value but also from student’s mental and skill. When examinees cheat,
of course, examinees is not ready financially and mentally. But unfortunately,
in Indonesia the activities of cheating is considered reasonable and the
punishment is nothing. And when we see to developed country such as Japan and
French. According to them, the activity of cheating is criminal and very embarrassing.
The
punishment will be given to students who have been known cheating harshly. Not
only getting punishment administratively, but also punishment socially. For
example in Japan, students which caught cheat will be drop out from his school
or his university. And the news will be scattered quickly. While in university
Ecole des Mines de Saint Etienne (EMSE) in French, when the test of welding,
there was a students who did cheating. So he got punishment. The punishments
are 5 years not allow to follow exams and the career in military will be closed
100%. Amazing right?
Ladies
and gentlemen
The
harsh punishment like that can produce the people who have good character. And
make their country to be development country and the activities of corruption
were minimum. We want to like that, don’t we? So, what must we do? One of the
solve is a harsh punishment should be applied to students who cheat during a
test or an examination. Students who cheat should be given strict punishment,
considered a failure, and was given additional penalties such as suspension or
other. Punishment should be carried out immediately and no tolerance. The other
side we also must gave the reward to those who are honest.
Ladies and
gentlemen,
I think it’s enough for me. I’m
sorry if I done many mistakes when I delivered my speech. Before my speech end,
I would like to give you a sentence “To change the world, start from our
selves. Willing is not enough, so do it”. Thank’s for your attention and
finally I say. Good bye . . .Wassalamualaikum Wr.Wb.
