Bandung Should not Build New Road

There are many things that confused people in Bandung. One of those problems is bad quality of road problem. Yeah Bandung is a big city which contains million people, and to satisfying the needs of good service, the governments have a plan to build a new road. I think there are other ways to improve in that case. At least, there are two things why Bandung should not build new road. Firstly, there are already many roads in Bandung. As we can see, Bandung has a lot of road, but none of it is efficient. Road in Bandung is an old Netherlands made and has it function based on Netherlands government.

The Clever Fox

There once lived a crow. One day he was very hungry. He had not been able to get any food the previous day. “If I do not get anything to eat I will starve to death,” he thought. As the crow was searching for food, his eyes fell on a piece of bread. He quickly swooped down, picked it up and flew off. Far away in a lonely place he sat on a tree to enjoy the bread.

I shall hold it carefully.” And he held on to the bread even more tightly. The clever fox spoke to the crow politely. He said, “Hello friend! How are you?” But the crow did not say anything. “Crows are such lovely birds. And you are very charm

The lion (Panthera leo) is one of the four big cats in the genus Panthera and a member of the family Felidae. With some males exceeding 250 kg (550 lb) in weight, it is the second-largest living cat after the tiger. Wild lions currently exist in sub-Saharan Africa and in Asia (where an endangered remnant population resides in Gir Forest National Park in India) while other types of lions have disappeared from North Africa and Southwest Asia in historic times. Until the late Pleistocene, about 10,000 years ago, the lion was the most widespread large land mammal after humans. They were found in most of Africa, across Eurasia from western Europe to India, and in the Americas from the Yukon to Peru. The lion is a vulnerable species, having seen a major population decline in its African range of 30–50% per two decades during the second half of the 20th century. Lion populations are untenable outside designated reserves and national parks. Although the cause of the decline is not fully un
