oi temen2..
ini nih salah satu yang ngaco lagi..
salah satu kebodohan pemerintah indonesia (pemerintahannya hermawan sama jajang) saat ini...

Slogan Visit Indonesia 2008, yaitu 'Celebrating 100 years of
nation's awakening'..

hmm.. merasa ada yg janggal? ato merasa fine2 aja? ato ada yg nyadar
kalau ini salah?

you're right, pals! itu SALAH BESAR... mustinya 'national awakening' atau 'the nation's awakening'..

nih ada lagi menurut http://www.associatedcontent.com/articl ... _with.html

Visit Indonesia Year Starts Off with Error
...In an embarrassing turn of events the campaign has been kicked off with a less than grammatically correct slogan. Appearing on billboards, government websites, and even on the sides of aircrafts is the slogan: "Visit Indonesia 2008. Celebrating 100 Years of Nation's Awakening." Somebody, perhaps with a degree in English, has gotten picky and pointed out that to be grammatically correct the phrase "Nation's Awakening" needs to be made specific; as in it requires the word "the" or "our" in front of it. Officials have since stated that the slogan will be corrected. the suggested new slogan should read: Celebrating 100 Years of National Awakening.

There are so many government officials who are savvy and mastering English, yet Indonesia's visit year slogan which is written in English contains grammatical mistake. What is the embarrassing incorrectness? Here is the report.

The placement of Visit Indonesia Year 2008 logo on the body of an airplane belongs to national airline Garuda Indonesia in mid December last year has marked the commencement of visit Indonesia year. State Ministry of Culture and Tourism Jero Wacik hoped 7 millions of domestic and foreign tourists will visit Indonesia.

But behind the luxurious logo launching, there was an unexpected mistake in English line used for the promotional slogan, Visit Indonesia Year 2008 Celebrating 100 Years Nation's Awakening, whereas it supposed to refer to the 100 years of anniversary of national awakening commenced in 1908 which falls this year.

Revision for the word "nation" to "national" has been made in baligo placed in Selamat Datang Monument on Thamrin Street. "Celebrating 100 Years National Awakening". Compare it with various promotional kits which already circulated in the environment of State Ministry of Culture and Tourism, the word "nation's awakening" is still used. Elementary mistake was surprising because the slogan must have been gone through various phases before consented by the Minister of Culture and Tourism.

Various logo already printed on promotional media will not be withdrawn. Revision on the material is the responsibility of the branding consultant agency Octovate who won the logo tender. The government has spent 900 millions rupiah of expenses for the logo design and promotional kits.

konon, setelah dikritik dimana2, sekarang sih udah officially diganti deh.. wek2..

tapi ya karena udah keburu launching dan beritanya udah sampe ke mana2, jadi malu2in ajah..

Dimaklumi aja bro, khan pemerintah kita lagi sibuk ngurusin :

- minyak tanah langka
- elpiji langka
- kasus busung lapar disana sini
- kasus kelaparan
- kasus korupsi yang gak selesai-selesai
- kurangnya pasokan listrik => pemadaman listrik bergilir
- dll

Jadi wajarlah, udah saking pusingnya ngurusin negeri ini sampe yang kayak gitu jadi kurang pas.
