           Character building is really important for students. Why so? Because nowadays, the good characters among people, especially students, are decreasing little by little. Therefore, schools, as one of instruments of education, they should plant and help to build their character. There are several number of reasons concern to globalization era.

              First, in this globalization era, many cultures of countries around the world can enter Indonesia easily through internet. This happening can affect Indonesian youth’s original characters. They tend to follow another country’s culture which is not suitable with Indonesian norms. For example, they being aphatetic to their surrounding, which is not Indonesian identity that should be humble, friendly, and caring to each other.

              Second, many students do their assignment with no honesty. They just copy-pasting from internet which is can be called as plagiarism. It can kill student’s creativity in school because the do not think to resolve their problems by themselves, but through copying from another.

              Third, in terms of custom, youths begin to forget their local custom. For example, we should respect persons which are elder than us, but instead of doing so, we just act to them as a friend and talk informally. Then, on the old times, we are prohibited to go outside our house in the night, but people nowadays do not do that anymore.

              Fourth, children in the globalization era tend to use the technologies, for example gadget, just for playing game, accessing social media, or another activity which is not beneficial. Whereas we should use the modern technology wisely.

              So, I believe that character building for students is really important to maintain our original Indonesian character.
