Do you tend to be enthusiastic or fearful when thinking about the future? Newspapers continues to be a very accessible reading format for Indonesians of all economic classes, even being amongst the bottom 10 countries in terms of literacy rates. Yet the medium is often used as a vessel for pro-government agendas or the various interests of owners and stakeholders, and rarely for capturing the people’s aspirations. Koran Pikiran Masa Depan (loosely translated to ‘The Future Thoughts Newspaper’) is a riposte to this predicament. In its tangible classic form, this non-profit newspaper is distributed free of charge to the public, conveying only, and literally, what the people aspires to. With a thick satirical style, the newspaper asks a simple question to different communities and social groups: “Are you enthusiastic or afraid when you think about the future?”. What the answers reveal is less about what the future holds, but inadvertently highlights the present social challenges that are often glossed over. Koran Pikiran Masa Depan aims to reflect for the future by reminding us of the ideal that we initially set. All in the simple form of a newspaper. |
