you can answer first

I'll take the opposing stance to whatever argument you're about to make about civic education in Indonesia. You're clearly going to argue that civic education is crucial and that we need *more* of it to solve Indonesia's problems - corruption, traffic violations, terrorism. That's exactly backwards. Indonesia has been force-feeding civic education for decades, yet you admit yourself that corruption persists, people ignore traffic laws, and extremism continues. This isn't a failure of implementation - it's proof the whole approach is fundamentally flawed. Real civic behavior comes from economic opportunity and social trust, not classroom lectures about rights and duties. Singapore has minimal civic education but excellent compliance because people have skin in the game. Meanwhile, Indonesia churns out graduates who can recite Pancasila but still pay bribes because the system rewards it. As a future IT professional, you should know that systems thinking beats wishful thinking. Instead of more civic sermons, Indonesia needs better institutions, transparent governance, and economic development. Code works because it follows logical rules - human behavior follows incentives, not idealistic curriculum. Your civic education obsession is treating symptoms while ignoring the disease. What's your actual argument going to be?

you can take the proposition, i'll be the opposition

Ah, I see! I'll argue FOR the importance of civic education in Indonesia, and you'll oppose me. Let me make the case: Civic education is absolutely essential for Indonesia's future, and the current problems you mention - corruption, traffic violations, terrorism - prove we need MORE comprehensive civic education, not less. Look at the data: countries with robust civic education programs consistently score higher on governance indices. Indonesia's Corruption Perceptions Index ranking of 110 out of 180 countries directly correlates with inadequate civic consciousness among citizens who tolerate corrupt practices. The real issue isn't that civic education doesn't work - it's that Indonesia's implementation has been too theoretical and disconnected from practical application. Modern civic education must integrate digital literacy, critical thinking, and ethical decision-making relevant to each profession. For Information Systems students specifically, you're entering a field where data privacy, cybersecurity ethics, and digital citizenship are paramount. Without strong civic foundations, IT professionals become enablers of surveillance states or digital fraud. Estonia transformed into a digital society precisely because they emphasized civic responsibility in technology education. Indonesia needs citizens who understand that individual actions aggregate into collective outcomes. Every traffic violation, every small bribe, every extremist post shared online weakens the entire democratic fabric. Your turn - tell me why civic education is worthless and Indonesia should abandon it entirely.
