[IBU KOTA BARU] - Jokowi Umumkan Lokasi Pemindahan Ibu Kota di Bulan Agustus
Meski belum sepenuhnya terjawab, namun teka-teki lokasi ibu kota baru mulai terkuak, setelah pemerintah memastikan ibu kota baru berlokasi di Pulau Kalimantan. Sejauh ini, dari lima provinsi yang ada di Kalimantan, tiga di antaranya, Kalimantan Timur, Kalimantan Selatan, dan Kalimantan Tengah yang sangat dipertimbangkan menjadi tuan rumah ibu kota baru.
Rektor Universitas Mulawarman, Samarinda Kalimantan Timur, Masjaya, sangat yakin provinsi Kalimantan Timur adalah yang paling siap jadi induk bagi ibu kota baru.
Lantaran, Kalimantan Timur memenuhi 7 indikator utama kajian Badan Perencanaan Pembangunan Nasional (Bappenas), yaitu berada di tengah tengah wilayah Republik Indonesia, bebas bencana gempa dan banjir, akses transportasi dekat, ketersediaan lahan, hingga aman dari konflik.
Meski ada keyakinan dari ketiga provinsi untuk menjadi tuan rumah bagi ibu kota baru, namun, Bappenas menyatakan, proses kajian panjang masih perlu dilakukan. Pada Mei lalu, Presiden Jokowi sudah mengunjungi sejumlah daerah di Kalimantan untuk memastikan kelayakan sebagai calon ibu kota negara yang baru.
Daerah yang dikunjungi di antaranya adalah kawasan Bukit Soeharto di Kabupaten Kutai Kartanegara, Kalimantan Timur dan Kabupaten Gunung Mas, Kalimantan Tengah. Pemerintah pun terus mengkaji berbagai aspek terkait wilayah calon ibu kota baru, mulai dari aspek kebencanaan, pasokan air, demografi hingga masalah sosial politik.
Presiden menyatakan, akan menyampaikan secara resmi tempat pemindahan ibu kota pada Agustus mendatang.

Singapore | Wikipedia audio article
This is an audio version of the Wikipedia Article:
Singapore
Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Singapore ( (listen)), officially the Republic of Singapore (Malay: Republik Singapura; Chinese: 新加坡共和国; Tamil: சிங்கப்பூர் குடியரசு), is a sovereign city-state and island country in Southeast Asia. It lies one degree (137 kilometres or 85 miles) north of the equator, at the southern tip of the Malay Peninsula, with Indonesia's Riau Islands to the south and Peninsular Malaysia to the north. Singapore's territory consists of one main island along with 62 other islets. Since independence, extensive land reclamation has increased its total size by 23% (130 square kilometres or 50 square miles). The country is known for its transition from third world to first world in a single generation, under the leadership of its founding father, Lee Kuan Yew.Stamford Raffles founded colonial Singapore in 1819 as a trading post of the British East India Company. After the company's collapse in 1858, the islands were ceded to the British Raj as a crown colony. During the Second World War, Singapore was occupied by Japan. It gained independence from the UK in 1963 by federating with other former British territories to form Malaysia, but separated two years later over ideological differences, becoming a sovereign nation in 1965. After early years of turbulence and despite lacking natural resources and a hinterland, the nation developed rapidly as an Asian Tiger economy, based on external trade and its workforce.
Singapore is a global hub for education, entertainment, finance, healthcare, human capital, innovation, logistics, manufacturing, technology, tourism, trade, and transport. The city ranks highly in numerous international rankings, and has been recognized as the most technology-ready nation (WEF), top International-meetings city (UIA), city with best investment potential (BERI), world's smartest city, world's safest country, second-most competitive country, third-largest foreign exchange market, third-largest financial centre, third-largest oil refining and trading centre, fifth-most innovative country, and the second-busiest container port. The Economist has ranked Singapore as the most expensive city to live in, since 2013. It is identified as a tax haven. Singapore is the only country in Asia with an AAA sovereign rating from all major rating agencies, and one of 11 worldwide. Globally, the Port of Singapore and Changi Airport have held the titles of leading Maritime Capital and Best Airport respectively for consecutive years, while Singapore Airlines is the 2018 World's Best Airline.Singapore ranks 9th on the UN Human Development Index with the 3rd highest GDP per capita. It is placed highly in key social indicators: education, healthcare, life expectancy, quality of life, personal safety and housing. Although income inequality is high, 90% of homes are owner-occupied. According to the Democracy Index, the country is described as a flawed democracy. The Singaporean passport is joint first with Japan for visa-free travel granted by the most countries to its citizens.The city-state is home to 5.6 million residents, 39% of whom are foreign nationals, including permanent residents. There are four official languages: English, Malay, Mandarin Chinese, and Tamil; most Singaporeans are bilingual and English serves as the nation's lingua franca. Its cultural diversity is reflected in its extensive ethnic cuisine and major festivals. Pew Research has found that Singapore has the highest religious diversity of any country. Multiracialism has been enshrined in its constitution since independence, and continues to shape national policies in education, housing, politics, among others.
Singapore is a unitary parliamentary republic with a Westminster system of unicameral parliamentary government. The People's Action Party has won every election since self-government began in 1959. As one of the five founding members of ASEAN, Singap ...

Forrest Kline at Resist Records Newtown - Blurry Version of Getting Old
Another blurry (and shakey) rendition of Getting Old by Hellogoodbye's ever-talented frontman Forrest Kline - he can even blend into the background
You may say blurry but we like to think of it as cinematic special effects. Fine... it's a blurry version and as Joey Tribiani quotes I'm Sorry
And sorry for abusing this description bar by taking it on a long convoluted date through the waves of my thoughts. In the past two hours I've created, signed in, uploaded and editted three videos so far and Youtube doesn't send a congratulation email after your first upload haha ahh self-motivation at its finest!
I hope blurry is in the lingo of all non-Australian English-speaking countries...
