Globalization is a manifestation of cooperation and friendship between the world's

population. Globalization refers to the interconnectedness and the changes in the society. The
real proof of globalization itself is the delivery of information that is increasingly widespread,
easy, and covers a variety of aspects.

One of the greatest influences of globalization is 'acculturation' between indigenous

Indonesian culture with foreign cultures. Globalization, facilitate the penetration of foreign
culture into the lives of the people of Indonesia. Of incoming foreign cultures, not all cultures
according to the Indonesian state. Some cultures even contrary to Indonesian culture.
Ironically, many foreign cultures are accepted outright and start dismissing the original
culture of the nation. This causes imbalance that does not comply with the Indonesian
identity. And even, damaging effect on the personality of the people that the nation's decline
in moral values.

In fact, the times when this is not possible due to the impact of globalization. Therefore, the
progress of nations did not escape from globalization support. Thus, the various aspects of
life in the community supported the participation of globalization. This also further facilitate
foreign culture continues to break through and get rid of the original culture of Indonesia.

Culture itself is the result of the thoughts of the people who developed into a prevalent
behavior. Culture is the hallmark of a nation that distinguishes itself the nation with other
nations.

Indonesia has a diverse culture that uphold ethics, manners, and menjda unity. Not only that,
the culture also became attached to the personal character masyarakt Indonesia. There are
several Indonesian culture that began to fade. For example, kissing the hands of the parents
when it will leave. Kissing the hands of the parents is essential, in addition to how to show
affection to parents. It also indicates that we really appreciate and respect the elderly. But
unfortunately, many teenagers who have left the culture of manners. In fact, some children
call older people by name without the word greeting because of the influence of western
culture too exalts equality.

Another example is the mutual help and deliberation. Foreign cultures entered with other
nations and ideologies affect the sense of community. The influence of western culture, for
example, the teachings of liberalism embraced western states affect societies become more
individualistic. Mutual assistance is not considered important and the only byproduct. While
deliberation which is Indonesian culture since time immemorial becoming obsolete due to
imitate other cultures who do everything by the will of the heart without thinking of the other
party.

In addition, Indonesia famous with cultures greet each other and smiled. Our nation is known
for a friendly nation. But the hospitality given our own nation often utilized by other nations.

Of all the cultures began to fade, globalization takes the biggest role. Globalization always
brings with foreign cultures and influences public mindset that causes smearing Indonesian
culture. Media information is one of the intermediaries that factor into the erosion of the
nation's culture. Especially the electronic media which gives a real good picture of both
visual and audio. So people are quickly responsive and know the culture.

Simulcast television show that contains elements of foreign cultures pose to current trends.
Assumed to have more foreign cultures 'values' and role in international life. Indonesian
people tend to be enslaved to follow the development of another culture is the culture itself
stripped off clothes as long to be able to wear new clothes. Though culture is created because
of the mindset of the local community agreement. Of course, the condition of Indonesian
society is very different from the conditions of American society, Japan, Korea, and other
countries. Therefore, foreign culture into Indonesia is not necessarily appropriate. And
ironically, the people have not been able to filter out the cultural differences. And even, some
people imitate him as a mere prestige.

Another example is the use of alcoholic beverages in the United States who then abused in
Indonesia. Alcoholic beverages are used by the American public to keep warm due to the
cold weather conditions in the United States. It is certainly not appropriate when applied in
Indonesia. Because Indonesia is a tropical country. Weather in Indonesia tend to be warm and
even hot.

In addition to television, the Internet also has an important role in globalization. Distribution
of information via the internet is considered easier and cheaper compared to other media
channel information. Today, communication via the Internet is not an expensive item but a
necessity. From the internet, foreign cultures can be easily entered and recognized.
Communities can look for other countries cultures without bound constraints, such as when
watching television.
Overall, Indonesia is being 'bullied' by globalization. Society tends to obey and follow the
teaching of a foreign culture is counter to the culture of the nation. The victim himself, does
not need to be asked. The most obvious is the younger generation that is affected. From the
style of dress, food to lifestyle. It is only following the wishes of prestige alone. In fact,
sometimes while preserving foreign cultures, their own cultural insult.

Especially when considering the ease of communication and dissemination of information,

young people more incentive to 'learn' foreign culture. Even partially implement it. We
ourselves can not accuse the younger generation as a destroyer of culture itself. Because of
the role of local communities, the environment and the government is very important in the
preservation of indigenous cultures of Indonesia. Indonesia is very famous. Temperature in
indonesia now is climb. Indonesian society is very care. I belive indonesia can improve.
Indonesia answer will surely change.

Not only is the task of the younger generation but also the task of the whole society of the
various layers to repel any aggression globalization increasingly stringent. It is time, we
realize that we are being 'bullied' indirectly.

Globalization is an important factor for the development of the nation from various fields.
However, as an intelligent and civilized society, we should filter out any incoming foreign
culture. Our nation will not progress if the character passed. In essence, we have to take
advantage of globalization as it should.
