For
many people, Buru only a small part of the Maluku’s group of islands, whose
name was boosted by the presence of political prisoners in the 1970s, and later
the impacts of Ambon’s conflict. In fact, the island stored a wealthy
exceptional biota, including “Seram Bats” that became extinct, and thousands of
Bali cow’s cattle grazing in the wild and open fields. Various types of forest
tree thrive in Buru Island, including white and brown eucalyptus tree that
grows naturally wild.
In
August 2011, Prof. Rhenald Kasali with a team of Social Entrepreneurship
Association of Indonesia (Asosiasi Kewirausahaan Sosial Indonesia/AKSI) conducted
a social mapping in Buru Island, and found so many problems that undermined
their lives. Among the abundant natural resources, live poor and backward
communities. The difficulty of access to education, and the number of children
who do not attend school, mainly because they have to help their parents work
in the kettle eucalyptus oil, is just one example. Not to mention that the lack
of health awareness and under-five mortality rate of pregnant women is still
very high. Due to lack of facilities and the cost of treatment, many sick
people who are not taken care of and just left waiting for his death.
