THE REFLECTION ON THE RAINBOW SOLDIERS :)

Assalamualaikum.

The weather on that day was rainy but I’m still came to the BEL 313 class because of the feeling of excited to watch the movie that will show by Teech in that day. The movie was in Indonesian version and my first expectation was wrong which the movie must be in English because of we attend for BEL 313 class. The title of the movie is ‘LASKAR PELANGI’. I think it was the second time for me to watch this movie but I’m glad for watch it again this time because this movie gives me many lesson and good knowledge. One of the character that I like in this movie is Lintang which he is from a poor family has a good talent in calculate only using his brain. He has high spirit in learning to become good student even though his house is very far from the school and has to avoid a dangerous crocodile in his way to the school. This spirit must be present in each student nowadays including myself where they have plenty of pleasure and comfort to gain of knowledge. The other lesson is sincere in doing things that we do. Cikgu Muslimah is the teacher in Muhammadiyah School which is the poor school to compare with UPT School and she has high sincerity to teach the students. Even though she had give up when Pak Hassan had died but she realized that she can’t to let go her responsibility to her students. Based on my credo in critical thinking class before, ‘miracle is where the sincerity is’(promote my own credo hehe J), it is suitable with this story when Cikgu Muslimah teach with her full sincerity and miracle is coming when her students were success especially Ikal which continued his study to Paris even though he had heart broken with Ai Ling.

            There are many lessons that I got from this movie other than I’ve said before like the value of good friendship between Lintang, Ikal, Sahara, Harun, Mahar and the others, and the humility behavior between rich people and poor people. As a conclusion, this story is very best and full of good message that very useful for people. For Teech, thank you for giving us to watch this movie. Thank you also for the foods that you sponsored at that night. Lastly, I would like to share the credo that I like from this movie, ‘memberilah sebanyak-banyaknya, bukan hanya menerima sebanyak-banyaknya’.
