And then, from view weeks before it I did my own case study from my persona ofcourse.
But it's still in progress too, because i'm having trouble for not using I, You, They, She, He.

2.3 Case study 3: How is This Problem Handled in Other Countries
         The problem about heavy children school bags, the thoughts about what if the facilities of the country they are living in is quite enough for them to lessen their carriers from the distance? For the very obvious example is Singapore. It is a familiar thing that Singapore has so many public transportation for its people to reach their destination as fast and as cheap as it can be. So no matter how old or how young the people, it won’t matter their “super fast” journey by that public vehicles. But the unfortunate thing about it is we have to walk and walk. What a very significant contrast with its neighborhood’s country. Let say Indonesia. It works so different there. Based on our research, our own experience and investigation, this problem is not really bother the Indonesian kids. Before proving that, Indonesians mostly spoiling their kids, so it is affecting their lives. This is not for blaming the government, because Indonesia itself hasn’t been capable yet, for the public transportation. So usually the children’s bags are not to bothering them because they are mostly using their own vehicles. Their majority is using cars, or motorcycle to pick or to drop their children’s wherever they go. As we all know too, that Indonesia has lower currency that affect everything seems so easier than how it works in   Singapore. Asking for a hand to the maids or driver in Indonesia really not a big deal. After their class finished, they can ask for a pick up service too, so they will not carry their heavy schoolbags for a distance.
         This small theme is actually brought a very big involvement between Children, teachers, parents and government to its country. So the conclusion is, these two different countries are commonly affected their children’s obstruction growth by the heavy school bags with the different ways. Not only in Singapore, every country with the more advanced and more enough public transportations do. But the very good thing about it is government has the policy for the maximum weight of their children’s school bags. And at least It is supporting the prevention. Doesn’t seem like in Indonesia that the curriculum has been thick up by the education government, and automatically even the children don’t walk too much, their daily carriers will be maximized by their daily activities. So how it tackled in other countries? It affects certain similar negatives, in a very different reflection.
