Narrative Text

THE FIRST WELL

There once was a small kingdom around a lake. One very hot summer, it did

not rain and the lake dried up. People grew anxious and went to the King. “It

has not rained for so long. Our fields are barren!” said the farmers. “There

are no fish to catch. How shall we earn a living?” asked the fishermen. “Save

us from disaster, good King,” urged the women, as their children cried with

thirst. 

The King sent his four generals in all directions to look for water. The first

general went east, towards the sunrise; the second went south, to the dust

and heat; the third went west, where the sun sets; and the fourth followed

the North Star. 

They searched day and night, night and day; high and low they searched

everywhere, but in vain. Three of the generals returned, empty-handed. But

the general who had gone north was determined not to fail his King. At last,

he reached a cold mountain village. 

As he sat at the foot of the mountain, an old woman came by and sat next

to him. The general pointed at the horizon and said, “I belong to a beautiful

kingdom, where it has not rained for a whole year. Can you help me find

water?”

The woman motioned the general to follow her up the mountain and into a

cave. “We have no water in our country either,” she said. Then, pointing to

the icicles in the cave, she continued: “We call this ice. Take some, and your

kingdom will never go thirsty again.” The general broke off a huge piece,

loaded it onto his horse-cart and rushed back home. 

By the time he reached the court, the enormous icicle had melted into a small

lump of ice. Nobody in the court had ever seen ice, so everybody gazed at it

with wonder. “This must be a water-seed!” one of the ministers exclaimed

suddenly. The King ordered the ‘water-seed’ to be sowed immediately.

While the farmers dug a hole, the lump dwindled in the sun. They swiftly

placed the seed in the hole, but before they could cover it up, it had vanished.

The farmers there grew confused and worried. They dug deeper and deeper

into the earth, all night long, looking for the mysterious seed. 

At the break of dawn, the King found the farmers fast asleep around a hole.

Curious, he peeped in and cried out in amazement: “Wake up, my worthy

men – the water-seed has sprouted! There’s water in the hole!” This is how

the first well was created.

Amazing Place

Raja Ampat

Many people want to see beatiful panorama, include me. I want to refresh my mind because of many task and difficult test. Many amazing place in this world which have beatiful panorama, but my heart always interest at Raja Ampat. Yes, Raja Ampat which located at east Indonesia.

I never go to Raja Ampat, but now I have many information about Raja Ampat from Internet. Let me tell you about Raja Ampat! :)

Raja Ampat located off the northwest tip of Bird's Head Peninsula on the island of New Guinea, in Indonesia's West Papua province, Raja Ampat, or the Four Kings, is an archipelago comprising over 1,500 small islands, cays, and shoals surrounding the four main islands of Misool, Salawati, Batanta, and Waigeo, and the smaller island of Kofiau.

Raja Ampat Regency is a new regency which separated from Sorong Regency in 2004. It encompasses more than 40,000 km² of land and sea, which also contains Cenderawasih Bay, the largest marine national park in Indonesia. It is a part of the newly named West Papua (province) of Indonesia which was formerly Irian Jaya. Some of the islands are the most northern pieces of land in the Australian continent.

The name of Raja Ampat comes from local mythology that tells about a woman who finds seven eggs. Four of the seven eggs hatch and become kings that occupy four of Raja Ampat biggest islands whilst the other three become a ghost, a woman, and a stone.

History shows that Raja Ampat was once a part of Sultanate of Tidore, an influential kingdom from Maluku. Yet, after the Dutch invaded Maluku, it was shortly claimed by the Netherlands. The main occupation for people around this area is fishing since the area is dominated by the sea. They live in a small colony of tribes that spreads around the area. Although traditional culture still strongly exists, they are very welcoming to visitors. Raja Ampat people are more like Ambonese than Papuan people and now some of them are Muslim and some of them are Christian.

The oceanic natural resources around Raja Ampat give it significant potential as a tourist area. Many sources place Raja Ampat as one of their top ten most popular places for diving whilst it retains the number one ranking in terms of underwater biodiversity.

According to Conservation International, marine surveys suggest that the marine life diversity in the Raja Ampat area is the highest recorded on Earth. Diversity is considerably greater than any other area sampled in the Coral Triangle composed of Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Papua New Guinea, Solomon Islands, and East Timor. The Coral Triangle is the heart of the world's coral reef biodiversity, making Raja Ampat quite possibly the richest coral reef ecosystems in the world.

The area's massive coral colonies along with relatively high sea surface temperatures, also suggest that its reefs may be relatively resistant to threats like coral bleaching and coral disease, which now jeopardize the survival of other coral ecosystems around the world. The Raja Ampat islands are remote and relatively undisturbed by humans.

The Raja Ampat islands are remote and relatively undisturbed by humans.

The high marine diversity in Raja Ampat is strongly influenced by its position between the Indian and Pacific Oceans, as coral and fish larvae are more easily shared between the two oceans. Raja Ampat's coral diversity, resilience, and role as a source for larval dispersal make it a global priority for marine protection.

1,508 fish species, 537 coral species (a remarkable 96% of all scleractinia recorded from Indonesia are likely to occur in these islands and 75% of all species that exist in the world), and 699 mollusk species, the variety of marine life is staggering.Some areas boast enormous schools of fish and regular sightings of sharks, such as wobbegongs.

 

Although accessing the islands is not that difficult, it takes some time. It takes six hours flight from Jakarta, the capital city of Indonesia to Sorong. Then, taking a boat to reach the islands is necessary
