Bloating Children and Corruptors

It is a sad state of affairs when we learn from the print and electronic media that many skinny children in many places in Indonesia are lying helplessly with bloated bellies, in a severely malnourished condition. Ironically, we also have learned from the same print and electronic media reports about massive graft involving huge amounts of money, perpetrated by smartly-dressed, smug officials.

It will not be an odd thing if there are some people who question whether or not these smartly-dressed and smug corruptors who hold office in government and legislative agencies have ever learned of these cases of malnutrition, bloated bellies and poverty, which are rampant in this country. It seems that these people have lost a fraction of their conscience to take pity on their fellow creatures that have been beset by such a misfortune.
These people should have realized that their disgusting corruption has sent many of their fellow countrymen to the abyss of poverty. Unfortunately, in reality, these smartly dressed people are living a luxurious life and often spending their time and money abroad. Meanwhile, many of their fellow countrymen live in abject poverty. Don’t they feel embarrassed?

How is Dust Useful to Us?

Most people think that dust is very harmful to us. But this is not true. Dust is, in fact, very useful, and therefore, it is essential to know what dust is and how it is formed.
Every solid substance is composed of very small particles. For example, if we go on breaking a brick or a stone into small pieces, it will turn into small particles. The air then carries dust particles from one place to another.

There are different ways by which dust is formed. When solid substance breaks, dust is formed. Smoke generated by the burning of coal, wood, petrol, etc. also produces dust. Dust particles also come from dead plants, sea salt, desert, volcanic sand, etc. The particles of the earth’s surface also fly in the air in the form of dust.

The biggest use of the dust particles is that they help in the formation of the rains. The water vapors in the clouds condense on the dust particles in the form of water-drops. These drops fall on the earth as rain. Likewise, mist, fog, etc. are also formed due to the presence of dust particles.
