Universitas Gunadarma History
Indonesia is continually facing the wave of computerization, this happened to be the answer of a question about the needs of computer education for the nation. Hence, in August 7th 1981 a computer education program was launched by the name of Computer Science Education Program. This program provides not only a course deals with computer utilization but also a high education institution that deepen the knowledge of computer science. The proof showed an improvement, thus, a foundation of Mathematics Research Operation and System Analyst Development was formed to accommodate Computer Science Education Program that later turned out to be Indonesia Computer Science Academy. The road to perfection hadn’t stopped yet; the academy was raising level to a High School. For the intention, the school must have the same name as the Foundation’s that runs it.
Eventually by the date of August 14th 1984, Kopertis III consolidated the name Gunadarma Computer and Informatics Management High School (STMIK Gunadarma) along with the name of Gunadarma Education Foundation. The name of “Gunadarma” was chosen the inspirational thoughts of an architect that built one of “Seven World of wonder”, that is Borobudur Temple, by the era of Syailendra dynasty. More over, Gunadarma means also a sincere intention of dedication to the society through a high school. STMIK Gundarma was located in Jalan Salemba Raya 53, Jakarta. A year after the consolidation, Department of Education and Culture gave a status of “registered” (listed) to STMIK Gunadarma through a decree of Minister of Education and Culture number 0424/0/1985 for Diploma 3 and Strata 1 title, in October 5th 1985. The world of computer education that infects business world has proven to be interesting for public. The enthusiasm made the campus could not accommodate any longer until finally STMIK Gunadarma opened its new campus in Pondok Cina, Depok. More over, the quality of education was improved to accommodate public demands. This achievement brought STMIK Gunadarma into the status of “equated” (equalized) through the decree of Minister of Education and Culture number 0490/0/1989 in August 1989. The success doesn’t stop here; the foundation produced another high school named Gunadarma Economic High School (STIE Gunadarma) in January 13th 1990 with its main program is Economic Science divided into the majors of Management and Accounting emphasized in computer application. By the decree of General Director of DIKTI number 92/Kep/Dikti/1996 dated April 3rd 1996, these two high schools were merged into GUNADARMA UNIVERSITY. This merger was intended to create a huge basis to anticipate the future by producing professional, reliable successors in the basis of information technology for the nation facing the globalization.

TRANSJAKARTA

Transjakarta is the managing institution Bus Rapid Transit ( BRT ) or better known as Busway . TransJakarta current institutional form is Public Service Agency ( BLU ) which is under the supervision of the Department of Transportation Government of DKI Jakarta . BLU TransJakarta Busway is responsible for managing that includes planning , operation and maintenance . TransJakarta Busway began operation on January 15, 2004 and is the flagship program of the Government of Jakarta for the development of bus -based public transport . TransJakarta Busway is a pioneer of public transport reform that prioritizes comfort , security , safety and affordability for the community .
Joko Widodo, the Governor of Jakarta, recently announced the opening of 20 new bus routes for TransJakarta, with a focus on routes that will reduce the number of cars on the city's streets. The buses will connect some of the city's older, more elite housing complexes with the BRT corridor, allowing Jakarta's wealthier residents to easily access the full extent of the system's network. The Governor was hopeful that this strategy would persuade middle-to-upper class workers to switch to public transportation, saying, "The buses are convenient. We expect residents to switch from private cars to TransJakarta buses." Two of the new routes have already begun operation, with the goal of 20 routes focused on vehicle-reduction opening in the near future.
Encouraging wealthier residents to use BRT is an important part of reducing both congestion and emissions. For higher-income riders, BRT provides a comfortable, accessible, efficient system that save time and effort. The TransJakarta buses will reach higher-income residents near their homes, then enter the dedicated bus lanes to cut through Jakarta's busy streets. This  maximizes the benefits of the system by making it easier to commute and more attractive to reduce the use of a personal vehicle. At the same time, ITDP is helping TransJakarta reach out to lower-income residents. A new project exploring non-motorized transit (NMT) around TransJakarta stations will look at accessibility in low-income neighborhoods and recommend ways to improve the system's reach in these areas. Currently, pedestrian and NMT access to stations in many neighborhoods is lacking, due to insufficient sidewalks or pedestrian pathways.
TransJakarta facilities and infrastructure designed specifically to function as a transport system that is capable of carrying passengers in large enough quantities . Infrastructure , management , control and planning of TransJakarta Busway system is provided by the local government of Jakarta , while the bus operations and the receipt of payment of the ticket system in cooperation with the private sector . With 12 lines and 134 kilometers of dedicated lanes, TransJakarta is well poised to bring BRT's benefits to riders from all backgrounds. Transjakarta is the backbone of public transportation in Jakarta, and system operators, as well as ITDP, are working to extend its reach to all city residents. Under the system's new management by BUMD, the changes and improvements to routes and accessibility will be streamlined. ITDP continues to support TransJakarta as it improves its services for all of Jakarta's residents.

Kalimalang River



When we visited the town of Bekasi then we will see a river that runs in the middle of the city of Bekasi, the length of the river from the reservoir to the Purwakarta East Jakarta, Kalimalang name. Let us discuss the origin of Kalimalang bit. Kali Malang itself actually is not the time or the nature of the river, but manmade times. Her intent in this river is to supply clean water from the reservoir since that time the water quality in the area of ​​Bekasi to Jakarta is not suitable for consumption .
Why call Kalimalang ? average time in West Java 's nature selalunya flows from south to north or north to south, since the beach in West Java is located in the north and the south. But Kalimalang river from east to west and transversely between existing natural time. So Kalimalang made ​​its position above the natural river flows from south to north, for details can be seen in the Malay Cipinang Kalimalang position is above the times sunter with crossed position Kalimalang sunter northward to the west .
Located 20 kilometers from Cawang to the Bekasi area. Kalimalang road from New Cawang - Pondok Bambu - Cipinang Melayu - Coconut Cottage - Lampiri - Transito - Sources Arta - Jakapermai - galaxy - Earth Satria Kencana and ended in Metropolitan Mall Bekasi. Kalimalang raw water source is derived from Jatiluhur, Purwakarta. Flowing trace Cikampek, Cikarang, Cibitung, Tambun and Bekasi. Kalimalang latter term is identical to the course that is in addition to time or also an unusual river, generally form the river from upstream to downstream, or from the mountains to the sea, but the river / Kalimalang is shaped transverse from the reservoir in Purwakarta to Halim, Jakarta does not go to sea, therefore called Kalimalang.
Until now Kalimalang into rivers that supply water from the reservoir, the river never dry season despite drought comes, the more unique each of our country 's independence day celebrations this river into a party of the people to hold a traditional competitions. Since when and by whom in her Kalimalang we still have not mendapaatkan source and clear information, some say this Kalimalang Dutch colonial some that say made ​​in conjunction with Jatilahur reservoir. The river is clear among the most unique .. because there was a river over a river.
