Let me tell you a story. This is the photo of me in Hollywood bombshell Jennifer Aniston that changed my life forever. This was taken back when I was drinking alcohol regularly. Now I was only drinking one or two drinks a night and a few more on weekends, but look how puffy my face is in that photo compared to today.  I'm almost 40 pounds heavier in that photo. I'm barely recognizable. And you know what I did when that photo was taken? I sucked my gut in the whole time.  When I was drinking a couple drinks a night I was feeling tired and sluggish. I was unmotivated, irritable. I was waking up in the middle of the night. I wasn't performing well at work. I just felt average in every area of my life. All I was doing was existing in the world. I felt like a five or a six out of ten. But right now I want to show you how I transitioned from just existing in the world to really living. How I transformed from feeling slow and average and mediocre and having that puffy face and a few rolls of fat around my waist to today where I feel fit, lean, healthy, happy and energized. I feel and I look young. I sleep like a baby. I've got great friends and family. I'm doing what I love in my work life and I feel amazing. And it all started from me cutting out alcohol for just 30 days. It changed my life. If you are willing to cut out alcohol from your life for just 30 days it will change your life too. It will give you mental clarity, make you more productive, save your time, give you more energy, you'll sleep better, you'll wake up with zest and vitality, you'll lose weight, you'll socialize without having to rely on the crux of alcohol, you'll win back your weekends, increase your net worth, you'll have more self-control and self-discipline, attract your dream girl or dream guy, improve your relationship with your partner, attract higher quality platonic relationships and you'll wake up psyched every day with new levels of energy and focus. Do you want to change your life? When would be a good time to do that? Exactly, right now. So keep watching. Maybe you're watching this and you feel like you're just a social drinker. You're not an alcoholic or anything and you certainly don't need to go to alcoholics and not a mess or anything drastic like that. But you have a daily glass of wine or two after work or a beer or two. It's a habit and you're realizing that the habit is not really serving you.   Maybe you're not attracting the dream partner you want or your current romantic relationship is showing signs of strain. Maybe you feel like you need alcohol to be able to appear calm and confident in social situations or you feel like you can't get through a day without that relaxing drink. You want to lose weight, be more productive, improve your health and energy, self-discipline and control. You want financial independence and to get more clarity. Maybe you want to start a business or get a promotion, travel, figure out what it is you really want to do with your life. Get closer to your family, have more freedom, improve your relationships. Whatever your situation, 30 days without alcohol is going to get you back on track. Amazing things have happened to me since I quit alcohol in 2010. Now, I don't know how you came to find me and be watching this video right now. Maybe you saw me when I was on TV and I was a sports center anchor on ESPN. Or maybe you saw me on TV when I was a Hollywood correspondent and I interviewed celebrities like Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Tom Cruise, John Bon Jovi and the former vice president, Al Gore. Or you're one of the thousands of people in 40 countries maybe who've read about me in newspapers and online news sites about the changes in my life from five years without drinking. You may have seen me on my YouTube channel or my Instagram page, Twitter or Facebook or listened to my top ranking podcast in iTunes, The James Swannick Show. Now look, I'm not saying any of this to brag, that's not it. It's simply that I attribute most of those accomplishments to the simple act of taking that initial 30 days off alcohol. So in the next few minutes, I'm going to share with you how I went from being almost broke, overweight, unmotivated and unhappy, just existing in the world to being clear in mind and fit and healthy and energetic, doing what I want with who I want whenever I want. I've taught countless people how to easily quit alcohol for just 30 days without having to rely on willpower alone. And it's easy when you know how. Those I've taught have been sending me video messages telling me about the amazing results that they've been getting about the changes they've made in their lives. Here are some of them. Hello, everyone. My name is Jimmy Beach, and I'm here to tell you about James's 30 day no alcohol challenge. Two huge things that happened in these 30 days was weight loss and better sleep. Hi, James. I'm Don. I'm Sylvie. And we recently just completed the 30 day no alcohol challenge. We actually are just finishing week seven actually today. When I first started it, I was skeptical. How long the program was, I didn't think it would be enough to create any meaningful change. The 30 day challenge was more than enough for us to reset and create new habits for ourselves and a new perspective on how alcohol fits into our lives. What's up, guys? How's it going? This is Chris here. I just want to send a thank you out to everyone on the Facebook group and James for doing this 30 day challenge thing. This has really changed a lot of things in my life. For the last, I don't know, almost a decade, I guess I've been destroying my body pretty much every weekend. And this has been like a breath of fresh air, honestly. My skin looks a lot better. I used to have these little bumps in my eyes now they're virtually gone. James fellow challengers out there. I just got done doing my 30 day new alcohol challenge. And I'd say the benefits are awesome. My face is a lot cleaner, smoother. I'm a lot more fit. I'm actually about to go to the gym right now. My main reasons for doing it were I wanted to lose weight. I wanted to make better decisions. I wanted to feel energized, less irritable, moody, less headaches. I had a little bit of chub cover because of the alcohol. And now I'm just way more ripped and my abs are showing people are noticing and my energy levels skyrocketed. Like I'm working on my business just way more in a lot more activities done when I guess I should be hung over. I have completed 30 days alcohol free. And I can report to you that I am sleeping better. I have no headaches. I'm feeling much more motivated. And I'm finding like I have so much more time like before I just always felt like, like my time was just zapped from me. But I realized because it was because I was drinking the alcohol and falling asleep. I'm way more productive. I'm finding time to do all kinds of things. I didn't even know this time existed before. It's wild. And then one of the coolest things is I have a lot better control over my emotions. It's wild. Things that used to bum me out in the past just don't really bum me out. They're not really that important. I can see the importance of things a lot easier now. So right now I want to find 100 amazing people who want to get back on track. This presentation you're watching is like my personal radar system. It's a way to send out a signal to see if I can locate you. Do you want to change your life? Yes, because once this group is filled, I'm going to take this presentation down. So please pay attention until the end. So on March 11, 2010, I began my own 30 day no alcohol challenge. And look, I thought it was only going to go 30 days. But I felt so amazing on day 30 that I said, I'll just keep going. I never considered myself a big drinker. I'd enjoy a drink or two midweek and a few more during the weekends when I'd go a little harder and get a good buzz. On a handful of occasions over many years, I would say I got drunk.  There was no real drinking to excess. I never felt like I had a drinking problem. But there was always just this general feeling of irritability. Like I was wasting my years on this world with all these hangovers. And like I said earlier, I put on a bit of weight. I got up to 218 pounds at my heaviest. Here's another look at the fat photo of me.  And I remember I awoke with a shocking hangover one morning in 2010 when I was at the South by Southwest Festival in Austin, Texas, after a particularly fun night. And I was staying in this hotel about six miles north of Austin. And right next door, I walked into this international house of pancakes for a hangover breakfast. Now, the IHOP menus have photos of the food you can choose. And they've got big, bright, bold colors.  So I decided then and there to see if I could go 30 days alcohol free. It was simply a personal bet with myself to test my self discipline. I didn't plan to go more than 30 days, but I eventually would. The first two weeks were hard. I went out with friends and ordered water or diet coke. And my friends would give me a hard time. You're an Australian, they'd say to me. But I got through those two weeks and then I was off to the races. I felt better. I slept better. I had much more mental clarity. And after just 30 days, I'd lost an incredible 13 pounds. That's almost six kilograms of fat around my stomach, just from stopping drinking. Check out some photos here. I had more money in the bank balance. My skin looked considerably better. And I actually enjoyed getting out of bed every morning to exercise. So I said to myself, you know what, I feel great. I'll just keep going and see how far I can go. Little did I know just how far I would go. After 60 days, truth be known, I craved a cold beer or a red wine or a Bombay sapphire gin and tonic with a little dash of lime. And when it was hot outside, I started dreaming, man, I could smash an ice cold beer right now. But I breathed deeply. I drank an ice water with a piece of squeezed lime and the feeling passed. After three months, I felt terrific. I dropped a few more pounds of fat and I was starting to put on some lean muscle in the gym. People were complimenting me on how good I looked. And I also realized that despite not drinking, I was still managing to have wildly entertaining nights out, even with my drunken friends who were slurring their words around me. Conversations with women became much more interesting. When I told women I wasn't drinking, they told me they were impressed with my self-discipline. Beautiful, I thought. I can stop drinking and still be fun and entertaining and attractive to women. Guys were always suspicious of my story, though. They always thought I was a recovering alcoholic who obviously had a problem. But, you know, I just smiled. Between three and six months, I was in the zone. I felt energetic and healthy. And I actually started to thrive on telling people that I'd temporarily stopped drinking. But many people, particularly the guys, they still challenged me.  Or they said to me, go on, just have one.  But you know what? I just laughed and I pointed to my head and gave them my stock response. I'm too strong in mind.  So I had to make a point of always sniffing before drinking if they'd ordered for me. Now six to 12 months was fairly easy to be honest. And this is the point where I noticed the most dramatic changes. I found that my relationships were considerably better. Romantic and platonic. For example, I was constantly thinking about how I could help my friends rather than how they could help me. And I was more inclined to help people generally and was more considerate. I was calmer and I noticed that I made better decisions. My work productivity soared. My business made more money. And when the opportunity for an audition to host SportsCenter on ESPN came up, I seized it. Good evening, everyone. Welcome to SportsCenter. James Swannick here alongside Anthony Howard. Here to take you into the weekend with a smorgasbord of sports. Let's start with football, Howie. I became a SportsCenter anchor on ESPN for two years. I did however find I got tired at nighttime and went to sleep earlier. Listen, I could still burn the midnight oil until 5am during my sobriety, but I realized I didn't really want to. I felt like nothing that good really happened after 1am anyway. So I would party hard alcohol-free until 1am. Most people who just met me weren't even aware that I wasn't drinking. I could still be the life of the party with nobody even knowing. Then I just headed home to be asleep most Friday and Saturday nights by no later than 2am. Then I was up at 8am or 9am on weekends to hit the gym, showered. I'd had breakfast and was ready to tackle the day by 11am when my friends were just dragging their lazy hungover backsides out of bed. When I reached the personal milestone of one year without drinking, I found myself back in Austin, back at the South by Southwest Festival, and I walked into the Lustre Pearl Bar on Rainy Street and I ordered a Bud Light and I put it to my mouth. Now it smelled good and I had every intention of drinking that beer to celebrate the one year without drinking. But something stopped me from taking a sip. I paused and I thought about it for a minute. I decided that all the pros of not drinking far outnumbered the cons. So I said to myself, I'll just keep going. So I did. I put the Budweiser down. I handed it back to the bartender.  And it all came from just taking that initial 30 day no alcohol challenge. I've lost a lot of fat.  Oh man that's nasty.  You can see the double chin there and look how puffy I am. Stopping drinking eliminated all of that. Now this is likely due to three main things. Number one, alcohol contains a lot of empty calories. Number two, drinking makes you crave more food, especially bad food like fries and desserts.  Now a lot of people think my story is an extreme case. But my story clearly shows the positive benefits you can get if you do quit. Even just reducing your alcohol consumption by a few drinks a week, I believe only positive things can happen. If I have a drink today, no worries, I've accomplished my goal. But I just don't feel like having a drink. So in summary, the pros of these. I feel better, I look better, I work better, I've got more energy, more clarity, more focus, more money, I have better quality friends. I really enjoy a nice ice cold water with a piece of squeeze lime. I don't miss alcohol. I realize I can party like a rockstar without the alcohol. I can socialize and feel confident in a group of strangers without needing the crutch of alcohol. And my friends who have known me a long time say today I'm just a considerably nicer and more agreeable person. What are the cons? Well it sometimes gets a little awkward explaining to new friends or business associates why you don't drink. But that initial awkwardness is felt by them, not by you. And you can't control how they feel. So if you decide you want to give it a try, trust that the pros will outweigh the cons. Set yourself a 30-day goal or a two or three month goal. Just test it, see how you feel, see if it works for you. Or go for a whole year just like I did. Or you know what? Don't do it at all. It's okay if you're happy drinking, keep drinking. Listen I love to have a few beers and a bottle of red with the best of them. And I'm sure I'll have a drink again one day. But for now I'm just happy with my water and my lime and I feel like I am the best version of me. When I told others about my initial 30 days off and then the following five years people were all amazed. They started asking me to teach them how to get through 30 days of not drinking too. They wanted to know the little tricks that I'd learned so you don't have to rely on brute willpower and self-discipline alone. Little tactics that I learned to use to ensure that when I quit I stayed quit. And I loved doing so. When I taught my friends instantly their lives started changing. The friends I inspired started telling their friends and then their friends started phoning and emailing me begging me to share the secrets of how to complete a 30 day challenge with them. The word got around so quickly that soon I was helping dozens of people transforming their lives. I mean I was inundated. I didn't realize how big the demand was. So that's when I decided I had to help as many people as I could. So after I'd encouraged all these people to do their own 30 day challenge I decided I had to create a more formal 30 day challenge. So that's what I did. I put everything I learned about breaking habits, generating more energy, feeling positive, losing weight, making money and staying the course of 30 days into just one system. One system to help people break their reliance on alcohol. One system that stays with you all along the 30 days. And I call that system the 30 day no alcohol challenge. When you discover how to do this, how to actually take a break for 30 days, your life is going to change.  Actually getting seven or eight hours of uninterrupted sweet deep restorative sleep or burning fat, getting more energy, improving your appearance with clear a better looking skin. People will always say to you wow your skin looks so good. Have you been working out? You look younger, you look amazing. Imagine how different your life will become with better relationships. Imagine true love from your partner. Better communication. Or if you're single being able to finally attract a better mate. A higher quality of mate.  Or do it for your kids. Are you a parent? You want to be closer to your kids. Give up the booze for just 30 days and watch how much closer you get to them. Now what about the money benefits? Well when you save money think of all the financial stress you're not going to have. Research shows that 80% of all marriages end because of financial stress. Not being able to pay the bills or have the good things a prosperous life offers is absolute poison for a relationship. But with some extra money in the pocket from saving money and from being able to focus on money making activities or starting that business that you've always dreamed of. You'll be full of abundance and prosperity. You can save money towards a big house in a beautiful neighborhood. You can travel the world or provide the best education and opportunities for your children. You'll be able to help your friends and family who are less well-off than you or you can change the world.

So listen the 30 day no alcohol challenge program is not a game all right? It's a powerful system that contains some very serious tools. The techniques in the 30 day no alcohol challenge program can cause permanent changes to your mind and how you see the world and like I said I'm only creating a small private test group for the people who find this page.

Hopefully I'll answer any questions you might have as you're sitting here making your decision. Number one, how fast do I get access to the 30-day no alcohol challenge system?  Because you're getting access to a private members area everything is digitally downloadable and you won't have to wait for the mail to arrive or anything like that. You're going to be able to start sifting through the material in literally less than two minutes from now. You get everything immediately just as fast as you can enter your information on the secure checkout page. The second question I get a lot is will it work for me? What if I'm not dependent on alcohol or I'm too dependent on alcohol and I don't think I can do it? Well my answer is just try it because if you've tried before to stop and it hasn't happened for you then what's the harm in trying another way? When you get the lessons on habit forming and psychology you can really implement long lasting changes. Third question I get a lot is what if I don't think I have an alcohol problem? Can the challenge actually help me? Listen, I didn't think I had a problem and I still don't think I have a problem but I took a break and I got positive benefits and that's it really. The 30-day no alcohol challenge system is filled with tools and techniques for every type of situation.  Number four question. How is this different from alcoholics anonymous? Well the real difference between the 30-day no alcohol challenge system and AA is that you need to admit you're an alcoholic to be part of alcoholics anonymous. But maybe you're not an alcoholic. Maybe you just want to change your relationship with alcohol. A lot of people don't want to do AA for a number of reasons. This is just a system that has worked for me and that I'm sharing. The 30-day no alcohol challenge I mean. Because the 30-day no alcohol challenge system is based on cutting edge habit changing techniques you're going to find out specific behaviors specific things to do to ensure you quit for 30 days and then cut back on going. Fifth question I get is can I trust the guarantee? Absolutely yes. Without question you can trust my guarantee. You get to download the program and try it out for 30 days. Believe me it won't take two weeks for you to see how powerful this stuff is. You can still take as much time as you want to try out the material up to 30 days if you really wanted to. Anyway if you're not happy you just send me an email or call me up and I'll make sure that you get your money back. You'll always get first-class customer support with me. Friendly and helpful every time. Honestly the only person taking the risk here isn't you. It's actually me because it's possible and I'm sure you're not the type of person to do this but you could just buy the program and get your money back even after getting the benefit of the material. It's not something that I really worry about here. I'm much more focused on getting amazing results for people and building my reputation around that. Yes you can trust the guarantee 100%. Now number six the sixth question I get who should not buy their 30-day no alcohol challenge system. Honestly if you have serious alcohol issues maybe something like AA or a retreat or a treatment center may be better for you. This is just a 30-day system designed to set you on the right track. It's what I know. It's not a full program if you are seriously an alcoholic. With the right intention and safety considerations this program will help you however. Now for more extreme cases I would suggest trying something a little more formal. My hope is that you will get the 30-day no alcohol challenge system and use it to give you wonderful experiences. Number seven how fast will I get results? Well the short answer is that the results will vary. It's like anything. If you're the type who buys books without reading them and movies without watching them then you probably won't get much out of this program either. You have to actually watch the videos and follow along and you actually have to stop drinking for 30 days. You have to take what you learned and apply it in real life. It's not some magic pill where you just complete your order and then without even logging in you get all the life benefits that I spoke about. That's just not a realistic expectation. If all you want is to have it happen without actually improving yourself then you may as well just forget it and read fantasy books. That being said there's also a side effect that happens once you start using the system. That is you're going to become a lot more confident, more healthy, better looking, more money, more energy, better friends, better relationships. As I said you're going to actually need to do the program though. It's really like learning any new skill. You'll get exactly what you put into it. The eighth question is my credit card safe and what will show up on my bill? Now again it's not me who's personally charging your card for this. It's a safe and secure third party billing company that does all the transactions for the website that you're on now and that's what will show up on your bill. Now our billing department is top notch. Yes, your credit card information is guaranteed absolutely safe. They use a 256-bit secure encryption which basically means there's no way your private information could be intercepted by a third party. So it's completely safe. In fact it's actually much safer than a department store or a restaurant because there's no employee physically handling your card. You just enter your information on the checkout page. I'm here to help and empower people and help them improve their lives. Yes, you're going to have a great customer experience guaranteed. All right, so they're the most common questions I get about the 30-day no-alcohol challenge system. Hopefully your question was answered there. If you're still wondering if it's right for you then honestly the only way to find out now is to click on the bottom below and complete your order. You can get the program take as much time as you need to review the material try it out and then decide later if you're going to stick with it if you think it's worth the money or not. If it's not for you then it's not that big of a deal. Just better to find out now rather than wondering what if for the rest of your life. I don't want you to have to struggle with that. Really I'm here to help you and that's why I have such a strong guarantee. It's an unconditional guarantee so that means you have nothing to worry about. I've gone ahead and taken all the risk so that you can grab the program. Then for any reason you can just send an email and get your money back instantly. I am really here to help. My reputation is really on the line here and right now that's what's most important to me because I want to go down in history as a great thinker someone who made a huge contribution to people and their relationship with alcohol a huge contribution to people and their all-round happiness. The 30-day no alcohol challenge system is my masterpiece. You know I get emails all the time from people around the world. People telling me they finally have a life of prosperity, fun, wealth and happiness instead of when they used to spend weekends at home hungover and feeling bad for themselves. There are not many things that you can buy that make such a big difference in your life.   So look it's really easy.

Ladies and gentlemen, gole ayun dance would like to welcome you all, please. Ladies and gentlemen, that was the welcoming dance gole ayun ayun of Jogjakarta. I hope you enjoy it. Now let us watch a short video, two minutes video on introduction of the third Asia Pacific rainforest summit. Please enjoy it. Indonesia holds the Asia Pacific rainforest summit, the third one, in Jogjakarta. With this event, we can also sit together, share our experiences, share our plans and let's see the infusion for the future. This is a wonderful opportunity for countries of Southeast Asia and the Pacific to come together and to work on collaboration and partnerships to tackle deforestation and forest degradation. For this aspect, we develop, we call it social forestry or community forestry, which is important as it is a big and huge agenda for the people, for their welfare. This is also shifting the paradigm and giving the harmony, the combination of the business between the corporates and the smallholder sitting together for the future of the people. So this is a number of issues and it's good to be in one team, forest for people and improving the economic growth. The Asia Pacific rainforest summit brings together governments in collaboration with the private sector and non-government organisations. We're all working together to preserve and protect the 740 million hectares of rainforest, which makes up 26% of the region's area. This 740 million hectares is absolutely critical to the health of our environment. So let's protect them. That's more or less the situation that we are facing, but I believe this is going to be good and we are trying also to learn from other countries as well as other countries learn from us. I think that's the way we are being together in the world. The sometimes the important one is regarding forest in INDC. In Indonesia the forest contribution for the carbon reduction emission is very important, covering about 17% and let's see what is the efforts from Indonesia and share the efforts from other countries. We already have a number of successes to our name since the first summit was held in Sydney. And this partnership between the countries of Southeast Asia and the Pacific is critical to preserving our wonderful environment for future generations. Let's see and let's take something from this summit. Have a good time and have a fruitful discussion. Excellencies, ladies and gentlemen, thank you for your kind attention. We are now entering the more formal part of the opening ceremony. And for that it will be in the good hands of Anthony Burney. With that I would like to invite Anthony Burney, the floor is yours. Selamat pagi. Thank you. Your excellencies, ministers, distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the third Asia Pacific Rainforest Summit here in the beautiful city of Jogjakarta. My name is Anthony Burney. I'm the director of international partnerships in the Australian Government Department of Environment and Energy. And it's my great honour to be the master of ceremonies for this opening ceremony this morning. So in Sydney four years ago the Australian Government welcomed countries from across Southeast Asia and the Pacific Islands to the first Asia Pacific Rainforest Summit to regress action to prevent deforestation across the region. And then in 2016 the region came together again. This time being hosted by the Government of Brunei Dara Selama. We're close to 600 participants discussed action on decreasing deforestation. Now here we are in 2018 at the third Asia Pacific Rainforest Summit and reflecting the importance of forest to the region. Indonesia is now welcoming over a thousand participants at this summit to catalyze practical action on forest conservation to help achieve sustainable development in the region. What a great occasion and opportunity to bring the region together again which is home to some of the most carbon rich forests and landscapes in the world and rich in biodiversity. The theme for this summit is protecting forests and people, supporting economic growth. Over the next few days there is an opportunity for countries from across the region to showcase the work on balancing economics with the well-being of forest communities and conservation. Demonstrating the importance of forest to the Paris Climate Change Agreement and the significant contribution that this region is making the summit is going to be focusing on the implementation of forest and land sector commitments in nationally determined contributions and progress made to operationalise reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation or red plus. The summit has brought a diverse range of speakers from across the governments civil society, the private sector and academia. In addition to the ministers and high level speakers that we'll hear from today tomorrow we have a very full programme where you'll have the chance to participate in engaging and interactive sessions on topics including peatlands, community forestry, production forests, mangroves and blue carbon, finance and investment, eco-tourism and biodiversity. And then on day three of the summit we have an opportunity to visit the region of Yogyakarta and see some of the tropical rainforests of Indonesia and see the work that Indonesia is doing to sustainably manage these ecosystems. So it's now my great honour now to welcome Vice Governor of Yogyakarta, Sri Padukha Paku Alam the 10th to officially open the summit. Minister, distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen, allow me to deliver to Governor, Governor of Yogyakarta, Sambutan Selamat Datang, the 3rd Asia Pacific Rainforest Summit, Yogyakarta, 23 April 2018. Assalamu'alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh, salam sejahtera bagi kita semua. Yang kami hormati para Menteri Kehutanan dari kawasan Asia Pacific para delegasi negara, peserta, the 3rd Asia Pacific Rainforest Summit, sekenap hadirin serta tamu undangan yang berbahagia. Pujis yukurs, nanti asa kita pancatkan keadaian Tuhan yang mengkuasa atas limpahan rahmat dan karuniyanya sehingga pada hari ini kita masih diberi kesempatan untuk hadir dan berkumpul di tempat ini dalam keadaan sehat Wal-Afiq. Selanjutnya, atas nama Pemerintah Daerah Daerah Sima Yogyakarta, saya mengucapkan Selamat Datang di Yogyakarta kepada seluruh Menteri Kehutanan dan Delegasi Negara Peserta, the 3rd Asia Pacific Rainforest Summit yang merupakan sebuah keormatan dan kebahagiaan bagi saya dapat hadir berjumpa dengan sudah sekalian. Hadirin dan sudah sekalian yang saya hormati, Indonesia mempunyai hutan tropis dengan luas terbesar ketiga setelah Brazil dan Zaire, sehingga memiliki tanggung jawab dalam melestarikan agar tetap dapat berfungsi sebagai paru-paru dunia. Kawasan hutan di Indonesia mencapai luas seratu konversi kawasan hutan secara permanen untuk pertanian, berkebunan, pemukiman dan keperluan lain, penggunaan kawasan hutan di luar sektor kehutanan melalui pinjam pakai kawasan hutan dan terakhir pemamenan hutan, maaf, pemamenan hasil hutan yang tidak memperhatikan prinsip-prinsip pengelolaan hutan lestari.  Hutan merupakan kalinya dan rahmat dari Tuhan yang dapat memberikan manfaat bagi setiap kehidupan manusia dan memiliki arti penting bagi kelangsungan hidup manusia mengingat akan manfaat tersebut maka hutan harus dimanfaatkan sebaik-baiknya dan dilestarikan baik untuk generasi sekarang maupun untuk generasi yang akan datang. Demikian yang dapat saya sampaikan sebagai pengantar pembukaan pertemuan ini semoga Tuhan yang makuasa memberikan petunjuk, bimbingan, perlindungan, dan kemudahan dalam setiap langkah dan upaya kita. Amin. Sekian, terima kasih. Wassalamu'alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh. Jogjakarta 23 April 2018 Gubernur Dara Isimewa Jogjakarta di tanda tangani Haman Kumbuano ke-10. Demikian yang dapat saya sampaikan lebih kurangnya mon maaf. Wassalamu'alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh and thank you for your kindness. Terima kasih. So now in recognition of Australia's leadership in initiating the Asia Pacific Rain Forest Partnership and our close working relationship with Indonesia I'd now like to welcome the Honourable Josh Frydenberg Australian Government Minister for Environment and Energy to deliver a keynote speech addressing the theme of the summit protecting forests and people supporting economic growth. Thank you Minister. Your Excellencies, Ministers, distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen. First let me thank her Excellency Dr. Siti Nubaya for her government's strong leadership in hosting the third Asia Pacific Rain Forest Summit. Your government has done an outstanding job in bringing together the region to protect critical and to progress critical action on forests. Thank you very much Siti. We have committed to under the Paris Climate Change Agreement and for meeting each country's sustainable economic development goals. The facts on the importance of forests speaks for themselves. Tropical forests store 25% of the world's carbon and in our region we have some of the most significant tracks of rainforest in the world. Asia and the Pacific are covered by 740 million hectares of forests. This represents 26% of the region's land area and 18% of the global forest cover. But globally deforestation accounts for an estimated 10% of global greenhouse gas emissions one of the largest sources of global emissions after electricity generation. And for our region a conservative estimate of emissions from forest and land use change is approximately 1 billion tonnes of CO2 per year. This is nearly twice Australia's annual total emissions from all sectors. While the importance of forests may be self-evident, finding sustainable and economic solutions to conserving rainforests and reversing these trends is more elusive and challenging. Focusing on solutions to these issues brings us to the theme of this year's summit protecting forests and we are making progress. And it is worth reflecting how far we've all come on the journey together on reducing emissions from forests. Since our last summit in Brunei I'm happy to see substantial progress on REWD Plus both regionally and globally. Since we came together in 2016 we have seen a number of achievements. In October 2017 the Green Climate Fund to which Australia is a major supporter reached agreement on a pilot program that will provide up to $500 million of REWD Plus results-based payments to forest countries. More countries in our region are implementing their REWD Plus national strategies. Seven countries in the partnership Indonesia, Laos, Myanmar, Papua New Guinea, Cambodia, Malaysia and Vietnam have now submitted their forest reference levels to the UNFCCC compared with only two when we were in Brunei. And at the beginning of this year we had the first Southeast Asian country, Vietnam have its proposal for reducing emissions from forests approved under the World Bank Forest Carbon Partnership Facility. This project will reduce emissions by 26 million tonnes and these reductions or units will be eligible for purchase by the World Bank with any remaining units available for Vietnam to use at its own discretion. Laos, Indonesia and Fiji are on a similar track for consideration through this initiative later this year. And as any minister here today knows making change is hard. These achievements show that progress while it takes time and is incremental is happening. We need to maintain this momentum and step up the pace of change if we are going to protect our forests and our people while securing economic growth. Collaboration and partnerships do drive change and this takes me to the second issue I would like to discuss today. The importance of collaboration and partnerships in driving change. It is through meaningful collaboration that we can achieve our collective goals. We need to build individual country successes and share the lessons is what these forest monitoring expertise with countries and friends in our region. Australia will continue to play its part in an effective global response to climate change. Under the Paris Agreement Australia is implementing an economy-wide target to reduce gas emissions by 26 to 28% below 2005 levels by 2030. And consistent with the theme of this summit Australia has set its goals to not only meet our reduced emissions but to do so while ensuring Australia's international competitiveness, jobs growth, energy security and affordability are also maintained. The Australian Government's Emissions Reduction Fund is a central policy to help Australia meet its emission reduction targets. The fund provides a broad range of opportunities to reduce emissions and store carbon across the economy. The majority of the abatement from the fund is being achieved via the land sector including revegetation and avoided deforestation. Over 150 million tonnes or 80% of all emissions reductions are from the land sector from more than 300 projects across the country. Australia has been able to harness the potential of the land sector to reduce emissions. This is a result of our expertise in measuring emissions from the land sector and through the governance systems that we have actively been sharing this expertise through the Asia-Pacific Rainforest Partnership. Starting with our good friends in Indonesia we have spent a decade now working with them to develop their national carbon accounting system as we continue to collaborate on a range of projects. This includes improving the way emissions from peatlands are included in the national carbon accounting system. Continuing to build the capacity of Indonesia for example including hosting 30 Indonesian officials at the University of Melbourne to undertake the International Agricultural Research proudly represented by CEO Professor Andrew Campbell at the summit today is supporting improved community fire management and peatland restoration in Indonesia. This support is generating new knowledge to underpin peatland restoration and develop sustainable livelihoods in restored peatlands. At the inaugural summit in Sydney in 2014 the Australian Government announced funding of $6 million to support the responsible Asia forestry and trade program across Laos, Papua New Guinea, Myanmar, Vietnam and Indonesia. We are pleased to have partnered with the Nature Conservancy to support significant outcomes to improve community forest practices across these countries. Examples of the success of this work are close to here. In the Klaten district and the Keeboom and district we are making a difference. Local communities are gaining and retaining certification of their timber as being legally and sustainably logged but it goes beyond that with the sustainable forest management practices of selective logging helping to protect ecosystems and the biodiversity of the production forest areas. These improved forest management practices have allowed these local communities to source alternative income streams through the sustainable harvesting of granulated coconut sugar. And building on these successes we are now starting new partnerships to further share Australia's experiences and expertise. Australia and Papua New Guinea ministers have recently committed to work together more closely on climate change especially in relation to forests and access to climate change finance. Blue carbon is also an important area of the environment with significant greenhouse gas emissions if they are not managed properly. Six of the world's top ten mangrove holding countries are in the Asia Pacific Indonesia, Malaysia, Papua New Guinea, Australia, Myanmar and the Philippines. Indonesia is an opportunity for mangrove diversity. Blue carbon has the potential to contribute substantially to the carbon stocks and the sustainable livelihoods of many countries in this room. Australia established the International Partnership for Blue Carbon in 2015 to raise the importance of this issue and to find new collaborations for practical action. The partnership, if you are not already a member, is open to all countries, research and non-government organisations at this summit. Australia is working with countries on blue carbon projects to enable them to preserve, to restore, to develop and to measure their blue carbon stocks. A critical component of Australia's blue carbon work in the region is raising awareness and sharing knowledge. To assist this, I can today announce that we will be funding the development by the Coral Triangle Centre of a learning module on blue carbon. The first workshop will be held in Indonesia in the middle of this year. Australian government officials are also hard at work on the final design stages of the $6 million blue carbon initiative. This promises to be a very exciting initiative. And we are eager to work with our partners, governments, the private sector and communities to identify a small selection of pilot sites in the Pacific to help protect and restore these important ecosystems. This work will ensure the carbon in these ecosystems is maintained and enhanced and that fisheries are improved and that does help community livelihoods. In this way, we hope to identify finance mechanisms to support this work on a long-term basis and for these approaches to be reputable elsewhere. Critical to supporting this work will be the parallel investment in data and science, particularly measurement reporting and its verification. Something Australia has worked successfully on with our partner in Indonesia for many years now. This brings me to my third and last issue. The importance of government policy in opening up private sector and market opportunities. Big institutional investors such as superannuation and pension funds are increasingly looking to invest in sustainable development activities because they see a shift is taking place. We are on the verge of realizing significant opportunities but as a region, we need to better be prepared to create the right conditions for well-functioning markets to develop and better facilitate large-scale private sector investment in activities that can serve forests. While there are some promising initiatives under development for greater private sector investments in forests and these are happening under the Green Climate Fund and through the World Bank, there is a need for more action. Private sector investment in forests is not flowing at the scale needed for conserving forests and reducing emissions. For example, while investment to support green bonds is growing rapidly, less than 1% is flowing to forestry and agricultural activities. To leverage private sector investment, countries across the region need to develop enabling environments that meet the requirements of the private sector. For example, to build business confidence for investment, accurate greenhouse gas accounting systems, and transparent reporting needs to be undertaken. And this needs to be matched by policies and regulations that create clear rights for local communities as well as facilitating the potential return to the private sector on their initial investments. One potential opportunity for the region is the operation of sustainable developments markets and the potential transfer of mitigation outcomes between countries under Article 6 of the Paris Agreement. As part of a review of our domestic climate change policy last year, the Australian government agreed in principle to the use of high quality international units. There is strong support for the use of international units by Australian businesses to meet potential greenhouse gas liabilities into the future. A final decision on when and how international units can be used will be made by 2020. But a fundamental requirement will be the need for any international units to be genuine and represent additional emissions reductions with no double counting of these emissions. Transparency in the creation transfer and the use of these units will also be vital to creating the right investment climate. If the necessary investments in systems and policies are made, these opportunities driven by the Paris Agreement represent a significant new source of financing for many countries in the Asia-Pacific region. An opportunity that promises to help conserve our forests, benefit local communities and drive economic growth. Ladies and gentlemen, in conclusion, with the collected and concerted efforts in our own countries and through our international partnerships, we are making progress. The hard work we have done together is starting to bear fruit. One of the measures of the success of any summit is the extent to which the conversations continue outside the formal sessions and endure beyond these proceedings today. I urge you all to make the most out of your time at this summit to discuss your work and ideas and to make the necessary connections and new partnerships. I am proud that Australia has been able to work closely with our good friend and neighbour Indonesia to support the third Asia-Pacific Rainforest Summit and I'm sure you will all agree that this year's summit will be a great success. Thank you very much. Thank you, Minister. So now I'd like to welcome our host, her Excellency Dr Sidi Nubaya, Indonesian Government Minister for Environment and Forestry to the stage to officially welcome all participants to the summit and deliver her keynote speech on the work that Indonesia is undertaking to protecting forests and people and supporting economic growth. Thank you, Minister. I'm proud to welcome our host, her Excellency Dr Sidi Nubaya, Indonesian Government Minister for Environment and Forestry to the stage. Thank you very much. Thank you very much. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you very much. Thank you. Ricardo Calderon, representing Minister of the Environment and Natural Resources of the Philippines, Director General of C4, Excellency Ambassador of Norway, Honorable Representative of Governments, Distinguished Guests, Ladies and Gentlemen. It is my honor to host this important event and to welcome you to Indonesia and to Jogjakarta. Welcome to support this event. I should also extend my sincere appreciation to the Ministers, Ambassadors, as well as other senior officials of Governments, International Organization, Private Sector, Civil Society Organization, Universities, and to all of you. My special thanks goes to Honorable George Ridenberg, Minister for the Environment and Energy Australia, and his staff, who have wholeheartedly supported the organization of this summit, both directly and through C4, the Center for International Forestry Research, to whom I also extend gratitude. My special thanks also goes to all who support the session of this summit, including the speakers, moderators, reporters, the contact persons, and last but not least, also the participants. Excellencies, ladies and gentlemen, it is my pleasure to welcome you to this important third Asia Pacific Rainforest Summit. The rainforest in Asia Pacific spun across 740 million hectares. Therefore, contribution from the region is worthy of consideration. Apart from that, more than 550 million people's lives are dependent on the sustainable management of forests. As we are aware, Rainforest constitutes a compendium of life, both directly or indirectly experienced, producing both tangible and intangible products, including biodiversity. Forest has a long list of benefits. If we look at the sustainable development goals, forest has roles in the achievement of so many of them, such as climate change, water, food, energy, health, terrestrial ecosystem, job opportunities, industries, livelihoods, sustainable cities, sustainable consumption and production, and so on, so many of them. This summit will last only two days, might not be able to address all aspects of the importance of forest. Rather, we will address seven topics, namely forest in NDC, restoration and sustainable management of feedland, mangrove and blue carbon, community forest, ecotourism and conservation biodiversity, production forest, forest finance, investment and trade, and they are condensed into the same of the summit that is protecting forest and people supporting economic growth. Excellencies, ladies and gentlemen, in regards to the climate change, I understand that many countries in the Asia Pacific put forests among the important sectors to achieve its nationally determined contribution. I believe forest fire, especially on feedlands, it represented 18% of our national emission target. We therefore did whatever we could to reduce the fire, such as suspension of new permits on feedland and primary forest, which is well known as the Maratorium, and promoting law enforcement, good governance, social forestry among others. With regard to the good governance, Indonesia promotes through the Indonesia Timber Legality Assurance Systems, or in Indonesia we call it System Verikasi Legality Skyu, or SVLK, which has become the first such system recognized by the European Union. Forest is expected to contribute over half of our NDC target. Of the target of reducing 29% of greenhouse gas estimation in 2030, forest constitutes about 17.2% or over half of it. These last three years we have managed to reduce the devastation rate from 1.09 million hectares down to 0.61 million hectares in 2016, and then to 0.48 million hectares in 2017. In 2020, we put the target of devastation down to 0.45 and in 2030 we put the target of 0.35 million hectares. I understand that many countries have passed the stage of endeavoring to reduce the rate of devastation and have bounced back to a positive net change of forest cover. However, for a country with a quarter of billion people living on many thousands of islands, forest land usage for other sectors of development is a necessity. This is also true in West Africa, as I noted from my visit to Brezerville and Kinsasa last month, where vast areas of peatlands have just been discovered. Indonesia's experience and success in controlling peatland fires have been an important reverence and with the guidance of a UN environment, we are now preparing to set up an international center for peatland research based in Indonesia, the center that we can learn from each other. Other measures to achieve the contribution of forest to emission reduction are enhanced implementation of sustainable management principles in both natural production forest and plantation production forest. And secondly, rehabilitation of the graded land of the 12 million hectares by 2030 or about 800,000 hectares per year with 90% survival rate and peatlands restoration of 2 million hectares by 2030 with 90% rate of success. Excellency, ladies and gentlemen, apart from climate change, the second sub-time of this summit is concerning social forestry. I trust that this is an important subject for the majority of countries in this region and particularly in Indonesia. These last years, Indonesia has undertaken major measures to promote social forestry. We have set a target to allocate about 12.7 million hectares by then for social forestry comprised of five types. Those are customary forest or hutanadat, village forest or hutan desa or hutan nagari, community-based forest plantation or hutan tanaman raya and forest partnerships in forest management units. In addition, we have allocated about 4.1 million hectares of forest land for distribution to local people under the land reform agenda. Now that you are in Japa Island, you can easily notice the result of the social forestry program. You will see later many forest plantation patches here and there. You can see and look around in Yogyakarta. They are privately owned land which possibly used to be for other land usage but now planted with trees due to their economic viability. Accompanying the growing smallholder tree plantation are the processing industries including plywood. These trends have been against all odds as in Java we used to import timber from Kalimantan and Sumatra and now it is in the other way around. That Java timber goes across the states to Kalimantan, Sumatra and other places in Indonesia. Congratulations for Java. Excellencies ladies and gentlemen, there are the points that I wish to highlight on this occasion. I believe there will be opportunities to address the other fields of importance such as mangrove, ecotourism and biodiversity conservation. I look forward to follow and learn from the whole proceeding. Indeed, this kind of learning from and supporting each other in the region are important benefit of this summit. This is not only among government but also stakeholders. Among others, I recognize the important roles of the private sector. Public-private partnership should be promoted in order to accelerate achievement of our major agenda such as the NDC and SDGs. Distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen, lastly I do thank you very much to Minister George Friedenberg for our cooperation and also for our more than one-year preparation for this summit. Thank you, Pajos, also for co-hosting and also thank you to C4 and all Indonesian colleagues from relevant ministers for making this summit available. Thank you to all Excellency Ministers and participants for your presence and active discussion during the summit. With that, I would like to conclude my remark by wishing you a productive event and also an enjoyable one. Please be serious in the discussion of the topic but please be serious also in enjoying the city and region of Jogjakarta. Don't miss the field trip on Wednesday which will give you a lot of knowledge about this region and about Indonesia. Now, allow me to declare this summit officially open. Thank you for your kind attention. Thank you. I now just call up the other ministers to the stage and C4 our collaborating partner and also the ambassador from Norway and we can have the official photo. Here's statements from other ministers in the region and ambassadors but before I close I'll just pass to Ibonini who's got some short announcements. Excellencies ladies and gentlemen, that was concluded the opening ceremony. Now allow me to remind you that on Wednesday we will have field trips. There will be two options, one to the Mount Merapi National Park and the other is to Gunung Kidul or the Salt Mountains. Please register on, reconfirm your participation. There is a dedicated desk for the field trip in the registration downstairs. It is on first come, first serve basis so please don't miss it. Thank you and please enjoy some refreshment at the foyer. Thank you.


Family Theater presents John Charles Thomas, Jack Webb, and William Conrad. Family Theater brings you Jack Webb and William Conrad in the short career of Dexter Coles. To introduce the drama, your host, John Charles Thomas. Thank you, Gene Baker. The struggle for political power has had many examples throughout history. Whether the ambitious striver were an emperor or a scheming member of a king's court, the leader of a nation or a rabble-rousing fanatic. Thus it has been and probably as long as we remain human beings, thus it will continue to be. For the average man's healthy desire for advancement in the world is transformed by a warped mind into an unclean, vicious, inhuman struggle that ignores all the average person represents.  The short career of Dexter Coles. My office alone. The time has passed midnight, about 12 minutes. There isn't much time left anymore. That's why I'm cutting this on the tape recorder instead of writing it out. I hope that afterwards the right person turns the machine on and gets it to the papers. What I did tonight was of my own will. It was something I owed to a great many people. This began over a year ago. Paul Merrick had been offering me a job in public relations with his machine. I knew I was going to play ball with him only. I knew that the longer I stall, the higher he would make his ante. One day when I figured the time was right, I went to Paul Merrick's big office in the Capitol Building. He stood up and put out his hand. Hello, Coles. I thought you'd come, eventually. Sit down, sit down. Let's talk about this job. Let's talk about the money. What's in it? Eight thousand. Ten to begin with. Maybe you don't catch on, Mr. Coles. I call the figures around here, not the flunkies I hire. All right, if you can buy out another writer at the price, you go ahead.   Look, Merrick, let's not fence. You need me, and I know it. You'll pay the price, I ask, because you can't find anybody else to handle the job. What makes you think that? It's a matter of the stomach, squeamishness. We others have scruples. Go on, Coles. Take some more rope. Let's see how soon you'll hang yourself. All right, let's put it this way, then. I was in Berlin in 34. I watched the Reich on its way up. In Italy, the same thing was going on. Later on, I got shifted to our Tokyo Bureau. It was happening there, too. Now I'm here, and I see the same thing all over again. What? The machine-state, police-state, il-ducci, derfu-er, Merrick. The names are different, but the thing's the same. And you don't like it? No, I don't like it, but I'm willing to come to terms with it if it pays well enough. You talk, Coles, but it doesn't gel. I know you. I know your record. I've read your stuff. Man doesn't check everything he stands for overnight to make a couple of extra bucks. This isn't overnight. It's been coming a long time. Like you said, I'm poor. Sure, I write good stuff, but I can't sell it. I got a kid I haven't been able to do things for, and after a while, things like that begin to add up. And now you want to play on the other side. Let's just say I'm tired of losing. You know, I've always wondered about you, crusaders.  I've always wondered what made you tick. How you made out in a world too tough for him. All right, I'll tell you. We get hungry. Some of us, the good ones, go on trying to beat the merits of the world. The rest of us just turn in our chips somewhere along the line. You've all got your price, is that it? Mine is 10,000 to start with. Well, for your brains, your ability, your name, that's fair enough. But for your insides, Mr. Cole, it's too much. How do you mean? You've got the Judas floor. You're selling out now for money somewhere down the line. Later on, I'll take the chance you'll sell me out, too. You take that chance, but it won't happen. I like your money too well. All right. Now, bye. Let me tell you something, Cole. Don't ever try to sell me out, because if you do, I'll squash you like I would have fly.  Well, it is. It's my machine and my police. You do your job, draw your salary, write the merry-go-round, and you'll be all right. But buck me once. I understand. Good. Your salary starts as of now. You need an advance? Yes. Now, the girl will make you out of check. Now, let's talk about the job. All right. You see, Cole, we've always been weak on public relations, even though we've got the press and radio of the state pretty well sold up. I know. I want you to take over the whole job. I want daily organized promotion throughout every newspaper and radio in the state. To what end? Clean sweep in the elections. Here. Take a look at this map. All right. State map. The black pens represent counties where we're strong. Red pens are 50-50, white spaces are opposition. There aren't many whites. There are too many from my standpoint. Eventually, I want black pens in every county in this state.  You're going to need more than public relations for that. I'll furnish the workhorses, the organizers, they'll do their job. You've got to soften things for them. You've got to make the public receptive. They've got to read when you want them to read. Believe when and what you want them to believe. They've got to hate things you lead them to hate. That's easy enough. What's the first step? Trouble. Carefully control trouble. We've got some big opposition candidates from the precincts along the river. They're smart boys and they're honest. They've been able to pack unity in districts where it's never been before. That's why I say trouble. It's the only way to crack unified opposition. I've heard that said before, only it was in German. Mr. Coles, maybe a half hour ago, you could have made a crack like that. But you're on my payroll now. You've lost the right to talk. You're right. I'm sorry. It was night when I left Merrick's office. Inside me everything had grown hard and empty. It was a sense of guilt that cried like wind through an empty cabin. I felt dirty. I didn't want to go home. But I had to go home because I knew my daughter Victoria would be waiting up for me. Anna Radka met me at the door. Mr. Coles, where have you been? The little one wouldn't go to bed, not a thing I could say. Oh, it's all right, Anna. She wasn't frightened, was she? Maybe a little. Very bad? Well, after all, you're all she has. When it began to get late, you weren't here. I understand. Anna, I'm worried about her. Well, don't be. She's all right. Just a little high strung. She cries a lot.  Seems a terrifier. Sometimes I think maybe I ought to take her to a doctor. I don't know. She doesn't need a doctor. She just needs more of you. She'll be all right now that you're home. Thanks, Anna, for taking care of her. I don't know what I'd do. Don't say another word. She's a lost little thing without a mother. She needs me. I'd like to be needed. Still, thanks for everything. You know how I mean that. I know. How's David? I haven't seen him in weeks. Oh, he's doing well. He's doing very well, Mr. Coles. You mean he's going to buy out that other store? No, maybe. But that isn't what I meant. My husband, David, has been asked to run for counsel in the election, imagine it. They got a petition in the ward. They want him to run. People wanting my David to run for an office. All these names, your people and ours. People we don't even know. They believe in him. They said that he wouldn't give in to anyone, anyone at all. Not even that poor married. Hannah, Hannah, listen to me. Don't let David run. Mr. Coles, I... Look, I know it's a wonderful thing. I know how proud both of you are. But don't. But, Mr. Coles, I... I'll come by and talk to David a little later, Hannah. Don't let him get into this. Good night, Hannah. The dirt inside me was thick and heavy. When I entered our apartment, I hoped that Victoria might have dropped off to sleep. I didn't want to touch her tonight. I didn't want her to look at me. And then from the chair where she sat huddled in the blanket, she called me. Daddy, here I am. She was small and lost in the blanket, thin like a bird.  I wouldn't go to bed. And I wanted to make me, but I wanted to wait. Well, I'm glad you waited, honey. Did you have fun today? No. You didn't. Was Nana here, and Benny, Sarah, Billy? Yes, but... but you weren't. Honey, I've explained that to you. I have to be away. I wish I could be here with you, but Daddy has to make a living for us. Tonight, when... when you didn't come, I thought maybe you'd never come again. And then everything was dark and I was alone. But Anna was here, darling. No, she wasn't. Nobody was here. I was alone. Alone. There, there, Vicki. It's all right. Maybe things are going to be better now. Maybe you'll have some of the things that you've wanted. Sure, Vicki, things are going to be a lot better. She was very tired. I didn't even have to read to her because she went to sleep holding onto my hand. It took the place of a doll. Now she'd have dolls now. She'd have plenty of dolls. Holding her, I almost felt cleanness come back to me. It seemed right that I should do what I was going to. It wasn't long before I was earning my keep. All right, man. All right, let's knock it off now. Man, I've called this conference for you to meet Dexter Coles, who will handle the public relations angle from now on. He'll outline the program of action for each of your counties. All right, Coles, take over. Two months now, we've been feeding copy to the press and radio outlets. We've been softening the public up. They're ready for things now. Incidents. We'll make them. You capitalize on them. All right, you, Johnson, there's always been racial antagonism in your district. Stir it up now. This colored boy, Harrison, and what's his name, the mayor at Waterford, they're both anti-meric. They got a following between them. We'll start the ball rolling. You follow it up. Make a racial issue out of it. Split their front, and then we'll throw in a candidate of our own. Build the smears. Document them. Create incidents if you have to. But in this case, it's mainly a public relations job. Whatever you do, nail them. In each county, we kept smashing away at the anti-meric forces, splitting them, making them weak. Oh, it wasn't hard. I learned how they did it in Europe and Asia. Things were going fine, but a few precincts down the river were making a fight out of it. They're getting out of hands, Cole. Way out of hands. Started with three precincts, now they've spread to seven. Oh, seven precincts in 30? What's that? You must be crazy. You got the whole state sewed up. What do you care about a handful of precincts in one city? I don't like opposition. But seven precincts in 30, I'll tell you what it is. It means the people in seven stinking precincts in this town have been able to get up enough nerve to buck me. Even when they know they can't win, they're trying. Ideas like this catch on.  That's why we've got to smash these seven precincts. All right, where do we start? At the roots, the deep old country roots, the ones that go down under their hides. All those precincts are the swell heap of humanity. Every race, every nationality under the sun is in them. There's a million dormant hatreds and antagonisms breeding in among them. What we do here, Cole, is what we've been doing, only on a bigger scale. They're united on one thing now, beat Marek, all right. We'll break that unity up. We'll set them hating each other so bad they'll forget to hate us. That's the line, Cole's. Go on, start hitting it. The night came down over the city. A slow poison began to seep through its streets and alleys. In my position with Marek, I created that night, and it was I who pulled the floodgates of the poison. Don't trust this guy, Schmidt. He's lining up them foreigner votes on the side. If he gets in, he's going to bump you guys out. Put his own buddies in. I'll keep this under your hat. I don't want to get around to that. A blast of unknown origin claimed two lives destroyed a dry cleaning establishment and damaged nearby buildings in the fourth ward this afternoon. Police headed that a bomb was planted by foreign elements supporting the election of David Ratkin, the council. Mr. Bernchick, owner of the establishment, was killed in the blast. Marek wanted the seven precincts crucified. I made the cross and drove in the nails. After a few weeks, they began to break up in little pieces. Nobody hated Marek anymore. They hated each other. Their political front was breaking up. I'd done a good job. I drew a fat, regular salary now. The world was a second dirty place to live in, but it paid real well. Mr. Coles. I looked up into Anna Ratkin's face. It was troubled. When she spoke, I saw her lips tremble. Mr. Coles. There's something up. Yes, Anna. I don't know what to do, Mr. Coles. The trouble is starting with David. What do you mean? The old trouble. He got a letter yesterday, not signed. It said, no foreigners on council. Anna, listen. David's got to get out of the council campaign right away. I want him to. I've been begging him to. He says no. He says it's just a trick of that Marek to keep him from running. Anna, you stay here with Vicki. I'll talk to David. I'll try to make him see. Now listen to me, David. Anna's told me about the letter. You've got to drop this whole thing right now. Dexter, this isn't like you. What isn't like me? Well, saying quit, David. That's not like you. I know what I'm talking about, David. Marek is hard. He's rotten. He'll do anything to get you off that ticket. That's what I mean.   That leaves him in power. No, Dexter, no. The people, my friends, they want me. They believe in me. I can't let them down. David, you were in Nuremberg in 35. You know what happened there? I know. But this is America. People like us, we have a chance here. It's the same here as in Germany. I've seen both and I know. I think what's happening right here in the neighborhood lately. Street fights, fires, windows broken, homes entered, smashed up. What's the difference? Dexter, I know you. I know why you're talking this way because you're thinking of me, of Anna, the kid. You don't want us to be hurt. But in your heart, the way you believe, I know you're with me. No, I'm not. More than anything else, that's helped me make up my mind. That's you, Dexter. Me, the things you wrote. Way back before I ever dreamed I would know you, you know, in those days I kept a scrapbook of good people who wrote things. I got all your stories in it. From Germany, Japan, Palestine. Even those days I thought there is a good writer, an honest writer. You know why I saved your things, Dexter? Because to me, you're... How should I say? Like a prophet. A man with God's light in his heart. A man working toward God through ideas, through helping men. Do you see? Prophets change, David. Times break prophets. Sometimes, even God fades.  Disillusionment, yes, but not renunciation of the good, never is selling out. David Radker, the tailor who believed in me. I went to the apartment. For the first time in many years I got out my old scrapbook. I read through it again. I was thinking the old thoughts and weighing them against now. And when I finally laid it aside I knew just how far I'd fallen. That morning I took Victoria to Anna's before I went to work. When I got to the office I found Merrick waiting for me. Ah, of course. I've got a big job for you tonight. What is it, slander or just murder? Still the funny man, eh? No, I'm not funny. Well, don't try to be. It's a big thing, Coles. Radio broadcast. State-wide network. Everybody will be listening. I thought that was your show. No, I can't handle it tonight. Something else has come up. But you're the smart boy with the words. That's why you're taking my place. Well, what do I say? The speech you wrote out for me.  That one. Election's just a week off, Coles. You know, you've done a beautiful job for us. This speech tonight will come at just the right time. Yeah, I'm quite a guy, Merrick. Yes, you are. You know, sometimes you scare me, Coles, way down inside. Well, now that's something. It is. It is. I don't scare easy. How a guy like you, with a name you had, could sell out everything he stood for and do what you've done. I don't know. I forgot about the speech in the way home because I stopped to buy flowers and a new outfit for Victoria was her birthday, her night. I let myself slide gently into her world, the good one. The child's world, which for some wonderful reason I could still enter. Being with her at the end of the day was like knowing innocence again, like the cleansing of rain. Her world was the one good thing left of my own. And then when I turned the corner and saw the crowd gather around David's shop, I knew that world had gone too. Hey, let me through. Let me through here, please. Hey, where you going? Let me through, please. Officer, listen, what happened? What, inside? You know somebody in there? Yes, yes, I do. My kid was in here. She was staying with... What happened in there? Take it easy, buddy. Take it easy. Nothing you can do now. Bunch of hoods broke into the place club. The guy and his wife smashed the machine. What about the kids? There were some kids in here. Look, I'm all to the Riverside Hospital. I headed for the hospital. I must have been out of my head because I don't remember how I got there. At the hospital, they took me to her room. They told me to be very quiet. I went in.  I started toward her, but the doctor drew me back. No, she'll be all right. Later on. She's not hurt, is she, doctor? Not bodily. What do you mean, not bodily? Well, it's a very extreme case of shock. You know, she wasn't actually touched, but in a way, it's as though the blows fell on her. The reactions are traumatic, even though there are no marks. He went on talking. Don't worry. I didn't hear him. Bring her around. I could only see my daughter's face. Thin, wasted, as though all at once life had been drained from it. Her world had crashed today. She'd seen men with hate in their faces and clubs crushing the bodies of people that she knew and loved. Her world had crashed in a nightmare of horror that had for a while, and maybe even forever, carried with it her mind. And I started the whole thing. I set the ball rolling the day I walked into Merrick's office. I left the hospital, I got into my car and I sat there. I must have sat there for better than a half hour, not moving, not even thinking. Then I glanced at my watch. It was 8.30. The broadcast was at 9. Automatically, I turned the key and started for the radio station. I couldn't think. All I knew was that I had an appointment to keep my mind fastened to that fact and clung to it. When I got to the station, I found the program producer waiting. Where have you been, Coles? We've been waiting half an hour at least. I'm sorry. We won't have time for a run-through. You'll have to go on cold. Yes. What's the matter with you? You look sick. Nothing. Nothing at all. All right, let's go. Paul Merrick said to tell you he'll be listening from some party he's at. Yes. You've got about a minute. Better get inside or watch me. I'll give you the starting cue. All right. I stared at the microphone and then the script in my hands. It was something I wanted to do, but I was afraid even to think of it.  It was something I wanted to do, but I was physically afraid of doing it. 30 seconds to go. What can you do in 30 seconds? It's not enough time to change things to make things right again. You've got the Judas floor, Coles. You're selling out for money. Somewhere down the line, you might sell me out, too. It was something I wanted to do, but my body cried out not to. I saved your writings because I believed in them, because you would like it profit. Stand by. Looking up at the booth, I saw the producer's arm drop. This is Dexter Coles. I came here with a prepared speech tonight. I'm not using it. I'm asking you to listen to me now, if you will, not cut me off, because what I've got to say is terribly important. I've been employed by the Merrick machine. I've taken their pay. This machine, all of us who make it up, is a cancer in the body of this state. It should be burned out, rooted out and destroyed, all of it and us. The way we've destroyed what's good and lawful among you. Now, if you'll please listen, I'll give you what you need to know. The facts, figures, dates, names, everything you'll need for the job. So I'm in my office alone, waiting now for Merrick and his friends. Their car just pulled up to the curb. They're on their way up here now. Whatever it is, I'll take it. And if I go down, there'll be others like David to take up where I finished. And if I don't go down, then maybe things are just beginning for me. Whatever happens, one way or the other, I've tried to do a little something for my daughter. I've tried to wash things clean, give back a part of her world that I broke. That's something. Open up, Coles. The door's wide open. This is John Charles Thomas again. You know folks, a birthday is a great event. I know it's true in my own family, and it's true in yours too.
