Taruna Goak is the name for Buleleng Youth/War Troops under the leadership of Raja Ki Barak Panji Sakti. Goak cadets were known to be very strong, never give up, had superior character and were specially formed so they were able to attack and defeat Blambangan (East Java) at that time. The toughness of the Goak Cadets is still known today, as a symbol of the greatness of the Buleleng Youth. However, what is the current situation of Buleleng Youth? Are still as tough as Taruna Goak? The character of Buleleng Youth today is inversely proportional to the Character of Buleleng Youth in the past. Currently, quite a few Buleleng youth are caught in promiscuity and cases of drug abuse and illegal drugs. At the end of December 2023, BNN stated that Buleleng Regency was included in the Red Zone for drug abuse cases and the most widespread was crystal methamphetamine. The Head of the Buleleng BNNK also stated that over the last 5 years as many as 397 people have been rehabilitated, who of course also come from various groups such as students, university students and others. Of course, this is a serious problem and must be resolved and handled together. Several things that influence drug abuse include; firstly, the growth of curiosity and a sense of wanting to try, secondly, the influence and association of the surrounding environment which is not good, thirdly it is caused by depression or excessive stress, as well as many other reasons. Regarding this problem, of course there are several solutions that can be offered apart from the government's efforts in making related regulations, namely; First, young people must get rid of their desire to try and try to think about the negative impacts of drug use. Second, try to find positive activities to avoid promiscuity and drug abuse. Third, support from family and those closest to you will also be very influential. And the important thing for young people to pay attention to is maintaining mental health to avoid depression or severe stress which can trigger drug and illegal drug abuse. If this effort is carried out, young people will definitely be able to avoid drug abuse and grow into active, productive and superior young people, just like Taruna Goak in the past.  
Om Swastyastu. Before I present this oration, let us all give thanks to Ida Sang Hyang Parama Kawi, because thanks to His grace I, Ni Kadek Diah Ayu Paramitha from SMA Negeri 1 Kerambitan, can present the oration text entitled “Ngamolihang Kasejahteraan Sosial ring Bali”. A leader is a person who influences others in order to carry out a common goal. Therefore, leaders have the obligation to complete and implement all the aspirations of the community and have a responsibility for community welfare and social welfare. Talking about social welfare, it can be seen from various aspects such as economy, education, health, and socio-culture. Today, I will discuss social welfare in Bali from the economic point of view. One of the economic problems in Bali is the economic gap, which is very important to find a solution to. The economic gap is closely related to the unbalanced infrastructure development in each region. This can lead to urbanization - people living in villages are displaced to cities - which then makes economic growth in Bali unbalanced. Poverty and unemployment rates are also important to note, because if you look at the distribution of subsidies for the lower middle class, it has not been well targeted, so the poverty rate has not shown a significant reduction in the number of people living in poverty. We know that Bali is very strong because of tourism which until now has benefited as much as 60% of Bali’s economic structure. In my opinion, providing tourism sites like this, especially in villages can be one of the solutions to relieve the economic gap in Bali, such as the Tenganan Tourism Village program, Jatiluwih, Terunyan, and others. However, we cannot guess what will happen in the future, such as the Covid-19 outbreak in 2020 which causes an economy decline, especially in Bali because it still relies on tourism. However, if you look again, Bali actually has other potentials such as MSMEs. These MSMEs should be considered so that they remain strong. Bali’s leaders have a role to help MSMEs in Bali so that they can improve Bali’s economic development, such as providing facilities and assistance in the form education, socialization, subsidies and rules that can encourage the existence of MSMEs and provide legal protection for MSME actors. Not only these MSMEs can help the Balinese economy. Social welfare is not just the responsibility of leaders, but the responsibility of the entire community. However, the role of leaders here is very important to lead the community to get social welfare, the leader should use resources as well as possible, and also build good buildings in order to provide people’s welfare. This is the text of the oration that I can convey. If any of my words are not pleasing to you, I apologize profusely, finally I close with paramasantih, Om Santih Santih Santih Om.  
In Bali Province, as in many other tropical regions, floods have become a serious issue that often disrupts the daily lives of residents. One of these areas, Badung Regency, faces similar problems, and several solutions can be proposed to address them. Firstly, the construction of a better drainage system is an important step in flood mitigation. Efficient drainage can help facilitate the flow of rainwater and prevent waterlogging on roads and residential areas. Regular cleaning and maintenance are also necessary to keep the drainage system functioning optimally. Furthermore, vegetation planting and land rehabilitation can be long-term solutions to strengthen soil absorption capacity. By increasing vegetation such as trees and shrubs, rainwater can be more easily absorbed by the soil, reducing the risk of erosion. Afforestation and restoration programs can help improve the ecosystem and reduce the risk of future floods. Additionally, better spatial planning is key to preventing floods. Local governments need to ensure that development takes into account environmental aspects and flood risk potentials. Mapping flood-prone areas and controlling development in those areas can reduce vulnerability to floods. Increasing public awareness is also crucial in efforts to address floods. Through education and campaigns, residents can be informed about the importance of environmental conservation and eco-friendly behaviors, such as proper waste disposal and vegetation preservation. The more people involved in environmental conservation, the lower the risk of floods. Moreover, technology can be an effective tool in flood anticipation. Early warning systems connected to weather monitoring can provide quick and accurate information about potential floods, enabling early evacuation and other mitigation measures. Furthermore, the use of technology in drainage management and flood control can improve the efficiency and effectiveness of these efforts. With a combination of various solutions, it is hoped that the flood risk in Badung Regency can be reduced. It is important for the government, the community, and other stakeholders to collaborate in implementing these solutions to create a safer and more sustainable environment for everyone.  
On this occasion, allow me to share some thoughts on the importance of giving teenagers the freedom to express themselves and work on their interests and talents. And how we as a society can facilitate this. The young generation is the future of this nation. They are the ones who will continue the baton of leadership in this beloved country. Therefore, we should give them the widest possible freedom to explore and develop their potential. Often, we get stuck in the mindset that children should follow in their parents' footsteps. In fact, every child has their own passions and talents. Our job is to support and facilitate their self-discovery, not impose our will. By giving young people the freedom to work in areas of interest, we help them find purpose and meaning in life. This is important so that they do not get lost and fall into negativity. In addition, young people who are supported to pursue their dreams will grow up to be confident and optimistic. They know that the community supports their efforts to achieve their goals. This will spur enthusiasm and a high work ethic. Therefore, let us embrace young people with empathy. Give them the confidence to pursue their dreams, even if they are different from our expectations. As parents and society, we must support our young people. Thus, they will grow into an excellent generation and bring progress to this nation. That's all for my short speech, thank you for your attention.  +
Om Swastyastu Thank you for the time given to the three of us. Pinihryin me show my name is I Gede Berlin Renaldi and my two friends are This is Kadek Junior and I Made and my son Sujana from SMA Negeri 2 Abiansemal. Health Now let's discuss the role of leaders in managing congestion. is a traffic suspension caused by the number of passing vehicles. more than the short road capacity of Bisnis.com, DENPASAR Promotion Agency Bali Regional Tourism says there are two things that must be considered in order to be successful. currently facing traffic jam problems in Bali. Tjokorda Oka Artha Ardhana Sukawati, Chair of BPPD Bali and Chair of PHRI Bali, said that to overcome current traffic jams, discipline is needed for for road users and law enforcement. Like traffic jams in the PB road area Sudirman Denpasar is not only a scientific discipline that uses roads, but also the future. A thriving society requires law enforcement. "Two things are true the most important concern," he told media at the Bali Tourism Board, the day of the flight the thirtieth day of the month, two thousand and seventeen. He added, for time In the long term, Bali develops as a service industry, not manufacturing Transportation must be considered. If this is ignored, a cultural approach is used. in our transportation, I am sure this will be wasteful. Although several modes of transportation are available, none is available. "They use it because it doesn't suit the needs of society," he said. He explained that until now his party had not seen the implementation of these two things in society. maximum because there is a feeling of unwillingness from the police, considering that the customer is doing it Local people have adjacent houses and parking spaces in front of the houses. If this is more Even better, the government could provide more parking, which could help. solve the traffic jam problem that is behind. If there are words that I don't like, I apologize, I would like to thank Uncle Santhi Santhi Santhi Uncle.  
Bali is a cultural tourism island that is well known abroad. This causes many foreign tourists and tourists to come to Bali to walk around. The arrival of tourists to Bali is actually welcomed by the Balinese people because they can help the Balinese people whose field of work is in the tourism sector and introduce world progress to the community. However, it turns out that tourist behavior in Bali is not as beautiful as we think. Instead of walking around enjoying the beauty of the island of Bali, they are destroying the beauty of the island of Bali, behaving as they please and trampling on our cultural heritage. The behavior of naughty tourists is indeed infuriating and this also happens in various popular destinations in the world. Not long ago it went viral that a pair of foreign tourists became angry and clashed with Pecalang in Bali. This was because a pair of foreign tourists felt unacceptable because they were prohibited from crossing a road, because there was a Melasti ceremony procession to welcome Nyepi Day in Bali. We as Balinese citizens should not allow this to continue to happen to our ancestral heritage on the island of Bali. If this continues, it can of course cause discomfort to the people of Bali. To overcome this incident, the government has actually made various efforts starting from socialization, efforts to give tickets to foreign tourists who violate it and even many influencers who have made the tourists' actions viral on social media with captions that vilify them. By making this viral, actually we are just as bad as them, why should we vilify people on social media who haven't even changed anything and the tourists are still doing the same thing. A lot of shouting is useless, but try to make the tourist stop breaking Balinese rules As a government in a new era, it would be better, apart from setting an example of good travel behavior, one of the efforts that continues to be made is to socialize what can and cannot be done (do's and don'ts) by all tourists or foreign tourists who vacation in Indonesia, especially in Bali. and Lombok. Apart from that, the Ministry of Tourism and Creative Economy/Tourism and Creative Economy Agency (Kemenparekraf/Baparekraf) also continues to move quickly together with the provincial government (Pemprov) to handle cases of foreign tourists acting up. So, in the future it won't just be about increasing the number of foreign tourists visiting Indonesia. But it can also improve the quality of tourists,

Building Bali with P2 Building and maintaining Local Wisdom and Building a Bridge of Hope for a Bright Future for the Island of the Gods Om Swastiastu Dear guests, I invite you to pray for a moment to the one God, with joy. I invite the brothers before starting this oration. Let us express our gratitude for the blessings given to us at this "Bali Oration" event, I will present the text of the oration entitled "Building Bali for P2" Dear guests, as we know, Bali is a paradise island for tourists which is called "the last paradise" because of its natural beauty, and we as Balinese citizens must protect this Bali, as do our leaders who will bring Bali into a new era, If not us who else?!! as the leader of Bali he must see and pay attention to the tourists who come to Bali, because there are many cases of insults and bad behavior from tourists which can damage Balinese taksu. Dear ladies and gentlemen, as they all know, Bali is very stressed by taksu, but now it may be even more lost, why?!!, because the tourists do not appreciate and probably do not know how our area is. Many of his actions have damaged the feet of our enemies. According to data from the Bali Ministry of Law and Human Rights as of April 10 2023, they have deported 82 foreign nationals (WNA) for committing violations. Foreigners from Russia are top with 21 members. Nigeria is in second place with 7 people, followed by the US and the UK with 6 each. Distinguished guests, whoever will be the next leader of Bali, I hope to take a firm stance against tourists who behave not in accordance with the moral norms that exist in Bali, it is important for leaders to find a balanced solution between good economic growth and preserving heritage Balinese culture and nature. In my opinion, the next leader of Bali must discuss P2, namely the first is conservation, meaning that conservation means that we as Balinese citizens must not be deceived, because every tourist may make a mistake which will reduce our taksu. The second P is Management, management means providing information about several places in Bali that are still sacred and strictly prohibiting tourists from doing inappropriate actions. I want to remind them, once again, that whoever leads Bali must be firm in collaborating and organizing to resolve and investigate all existing problems and we as Balinese must also participate in protecting the world of Bali, if not us, who else. I close with pramasanthi om santhi santhi santhi om Salam demokrasi!!  
Libraries are often thought of as a bridge to knowledge, a place where individuals can find lessons, inspiration, and entertainment. However, in the city of Denpasar, Bali, libraries face a number of problems that impede public access to this valuable intellectual resource. With the experiences and stories of local people, we can understand how important it is to overcome these challenges and rebuild the foundation of libraries as inclusive and effective learning centers. One of the major problems faced by libraries in the City of Denpasar is inconsistent operational schedules. Many libraries are only open during normal business hours, even on weekdays, making it difficult for workers or students with busy schedules to visit. In fact, some libraries even close on weekends, when many people have free time to study or enjoy reading. This causes frustration and reduces the public's interest in using library facilities. In addition, unresponsive service and lack of effective communication are also constraints. Many visitors feel that library staff are unfriendly and unwilling to help. The experience of Sekar, a local resident, reflects a common experience where simple requests such as finding a wifi password or a membership registration procedure are not responded to well. This results in a difficult experience and less motivation to return to the library. In addition, the lack of information about the operational schedule and library services is also a problem. Many libraries do not actively update their information on online platforms such as Google Maps, making it difficult for the public to know when the library is open or closed. This causes confusion and uncertainty, especially for those who do not live near libraries or have limited access to the internet. To address these problems, concrete steps need to be taken by governments and stakeholders. First, libraries need to expand their operating schedules, including opening on weekends and at night to reach more people. This will provide an opportunity for individuals with busy schedules to access library resources. In addition, training for library staff in customer service and effective communication is also important. Library staff should be equipped with the necessary skills to provide friendly and responsive assistance to visitors. This will help create a more welcoming environment and encourage people to use library facilities more comfortably. Equally important, libraries should increase their efforts in disseminating information about their services and operating schedules. This can be done through a variety of communication channels, including social media and library websites. By providing clear and easily accessible information, libraries can rebuild public trust and increase their participation. With these steps, the libraries in the City of Denpasar can play a more effective role in providing access to knowledge and supporting lifelong learning for its community. By improving their systems and services, libraries can become inclusive and inspiring centers of learning, helping to build a brighter future for future generations.
