Ø I think personally , the MEA can provide positive and negative sides , especially for young people in Indonesia . The plus side , MEA will provide considerable opportunities in various fields of human resources if the government has prepared optimally youth , considering Indonesia has lots of natural resources . The downside, if the government does not prepare human resources properly , the opposite will occur, and rising unemployment due to the youth Indonesia can not compete with the youth of other countries . In welcoming MEA 2016 , personally no special strategy , I just further hone my foreign language skills in order to compete with other ASEAN community . The hope , youth in Indonesia more motivated to continue their education to higher education . Additionally , hone skills in a foreign language is also very necessary to face MEA 2016 .
