AFTER the trail about 500 meters, the magnificent roof of the building was visible. The name of the International School Stubs (RSBI). Located behind the settlement of Ketapang Indah Village residents, North Singkil, Aceh Singkil.

It took about 45 minutes for Serambi reporters to crawl to reach this international standard building, having to get rid of grass and wild plants on the left and right side of the sharply sharp path. While the vehicle must be left far away in residential citizens. Birds flocked to Serambi as they approached the building in 2009 on Saturday (21/2) morning.

From the highway Singkil-Rimo, this building is actually not far away. Probably less than a kilometer. However, the bushes are threaded with thorns crisscrossing the path, so it takes extra effort to break through there.

In the RSBI complex, the towering wild tree appears to be closing the building which consists of four study rooms, offices, mushala and teachers' dormitory houses. Some of the window panes have been cracked. Among the buildings in this complex, the official house of the teacher is very closed, because the weeds and the wild trees grow as high as the building itself.

Many years worth of projects worth approximately Rp 6 billion is left waste. I do not know why. Ironically, on the other hand, there are still schools in Aceh Singkil that lack of study space.

Based on Serambi records, in 2014 alone, there are at least six elementary schools (SD) that must share the study space. One room was blocked for two study groups. Even more ironic, there are students who are still studying under the palm tree, namely the students of private madrasah (MIS) Simpang Kanan. "It's been almost a year now students are studying under a palm tree. Sometimes in the principal and teachers' room, because of the lack of class, "said Head of MIS Simpang Kanan, Restu Saputra.

Not just this. There are several other projects left abandoned on Earth Shaykh Abdurrauf this. Buildings worth a dozen billions of rupiah that have not been utilized, among others, the Islamic Center building in Lae Petal, Suro District built since 2009. This multiyear project (multiethnic) is the dream of the first Regent of Aceh Singkil, Makmursyah Putra before death. On one occasion, he once said that the center of Islamic studies must function before he ends the task of leading the Earth Sekata Sepekat. Unfortunately, his hope has not been accomplished, even years later after he died on October 15, 2011.

If you photographed it from the roadside of Singkil-Subulussalam, this Islamic Center building looks beautiful with the river in between the dome-roofed buildings. The main building is quite wide, located on the front. Behind him, there is a building for teachers who had functioned as mes workers. In the right corner, there is a mosque built two floors. The complex also has safety fences. The page is paved. However, the building paint looks to start peeling off in some parts, along with the passage of time. Although not yet exploited, renovation was done, especially after the earthquake rocked Singkil some time ago.

Thankfully, related to the building RSBI intended, secretly turned out Regent of Aceh Singkil, Safriadi SH claimed to have a plan to take advantage of this building. Like Makmur Syahputra, Safriadi promised to take advantage of it soon. "Building RSBI stay equipped only. This year we are trying to be utilized to become North Singkil Junior High School because of which there are now excess students. We are currently licensing the Aceh Education Office, "said Safriadi.

Terhdap Islamic Center building Regent Safiadi alias Oyon claimed to have a plan. According to him, in 2016 the building will be functioned into an integrated pesantren.

The success of the program, this year also built 12 room where studying students. "Six local by Aceh Dayah Agency, six more from APBK. If this year is built locally, then next year can be utilized to be integrated pesantren, "he said. Likewise, no one can guarantee that this multibillion-dollar project will soon be exploited, as is the difficulty of fulfilling the promise that Makmur Syahputra once uttered during his lifetime.
