medan my hometown, my lovely place with friendly people

I grew up at Medan, North Sumatra, Indonesia. For me, Medan is the best place to live in.Medan is currently the fourth largest city in Indonesia based on the total number of population. Outside of Java, Medan is the largest city and holds the central of government and commercial sector for the western part of Indonesia. Medan is well known for their tobacco plantation. Medan is also one of the most important port in Indonesia outside of Java. The latest addition of the Kuala Namu International Airport (still in progress) will give a huge impact on the growth of Medan commercial sector and will support the activity of becoming the central of the western part of Indonesia.

Medan is inhabited by many different ethnic groups, mostly Malay, Batak, Javanese, Padang, and Chinese. Malay people are the natives of the Medan area, and have deep roots in Medan. They began ruling there during the Deli empire (Kesultanan Deli) until now. The empire has many lands and property of heritage in Medan, such as Istana Maimoon, Mesjid Raya Medan, Sultan Deli Pool and many more.

Batak people colour Medan with their hard work and strong character. Many are come from areas in North Sumatera such as, Toba, Sibolga, and Tanah Karo. The Batak have been established in Medan for many years, so sometimes people think they're the Medan natives.

"I am surprised that instantly turned toward the man and began to wonder who this person is? because  i don't recognize him so i told him I'm sorry i did'nt know you.but the response I received made me  confused. he told me his name and forced me to try to know him. but i told him that he called wrong person he called" Lisa" eventhough my name is Lidya. After a few moments of silence with a smile of embarrassment he said "sorry I think you were  my friend because your face is very similar to my friend" then I could only hold my laughter and said, "it's okay". 

  NETIQUETTE

 

when we use a network There are some ethics we should follow some of which arethe first is being more humane. Although we can't see each other fellow internet users Yes, use your network connections to express yourself freely, explore strange new worlds, and boldly go where you've never gone before. But remember the Prime Directive of Netiquette: Those are real people out there.

 When you communicate through cyberspace -- via email or on discussion groups -- your words are written. And chances are they're stored somewhere where you have no control over them. In other words, there's a good chance they can come back to haunt you. You don't have to be engaged in criminal activity to want to be careful. Any message you send could be saved or forwarded by its recipient. You have no control over where it goes.

If you use shareware, pay for it. Paying for shareware encourages more people to write shareware. The few dollars probably won't mean much to you, and they benefit all of cyberspace in the long run.  If you're tempted to do something that's illegal in cyberspace, chances are it's also bad Netiquette.  Today, it's as easy to copy practically anyone on your mail as it is not to. And we sometimes find ourselves copying people almost out of habit. In general, his is rude. People have less time than ever today, precisely because they have so much information to absorb. Before you copy people on your messages, ask yourself whether they really need to know. If the answer is no, don't waste their time. If the answer is maybe, think twice before you hit the send key.   If you do decide to inform someone of a mistake, point it out politely, and preferably by private email rather than in public. Give people the benefit of the doubt; assume they just don't know any better. And never be arrogant or self-righteous about it.
