Himpunan Masyarakat Dapur Gemas (HMD Gemas) seluruh Indonesia mendesak Badan Gizi Nasional untuk segera mencabut Surat Edaran Nomor 12 Tahun 2026. Desakan tersebut disepakati dalam Rapat Koordinasi Nasional (Rakornas) di Jakarta yang dihadiri oleh pengurus DPP, DPW, DPD, serta ratusan perwakilan relawan dan pelaku UMKM dari berbagai daerah. HMD Gemas menilai surat edaran tersebut memicu ketidakpastian hukum dan berdampak langsung pada keberlangsungan para pelaku usaha serta relawan yang terlibat dalam program Makan Bergizi Gratis (MBG). Jika tuntutan ini diabaikan, organisasi tersebut menegaskan siap menggelar aksi damai serentak di depan Istana Merdeka serta berbagai daerah di seluruh Indonesia.

One who obtains the treasure of virtues from God and keeps Surat paired with the virtues of God by remaining in spiritual tranquility. O Nanak! Blessed is the merchant of that Naam who has the support (form) of 'Naam' in the presence of SatGuru.You look at any human being with concentrated attention, no one understands without controlling the mind (ie, no one's work is done); The beggars (even the saints) are left after making pilgrimages, (thus) this mind is not killed.The human being who is in the presence of SatGuru keeps his mind attached to the True God (because of this) his mind is dead while he is alive (ie, he is saddened by Maya even while working in Maya). O Nanak! The filth of this mind descends in such a way that (the ego of the mind) is burnt with (SatGuru's) word.O my holy brother! Just a little (me too) chant God's Name. O God! Make the adornment of God's name, and wear the garment of forgiveness, such adornment is pleasing to dear God, adornment of love is pleasing to God. Day and night remember God's Name, in an instant all sins will be cut off. The Gurmukh on whom God has mercy, he (from the world) wins (by) meditating on God

Shaykh Abdur-Rahman (hafizahullah) begins by mentioning the Qur'anic verse in which Allah describes the servants upon whom He sends His peace and mercy. In this verse from Surat al-Baqarah, Allah explains that when calamity befalls them, they say: “Indeed, to Allah we belong, and to Him is our return.” He then explains that the seeker should recognise the nature of this worldly life: it is inevitable that one will experience hardship and trial. Believers, in particular, will be tested in their wealth, health, and lives. He further advises that remembering death and reflecting upon the rewards and blessings Allah has prepared for the believers in the Hereafter helps cultivate patience and steadfastness in times of loss and calamity. As a result, even amid worldly hardship, the seeker's heart can remain tranquil and at peace.

Hai Wonder Kids, kembali dalam renungan anak GKY Mangga Besar. Judul renungan hari ini adalah Surat-Surat IgnatiusDiambil dari: Yohanes 11:25 “Jawab Yesus: ‘Akulah kebangkitan dan hidup; barangsiapa percaya kepada-Ku, ia akan hidup walaupun ia sudah mati.'”Wonder Kids, hari ini kita belajar tentang seorang tokoh gereja mula-mula bernama Ignatius. Ignatius adalah seorang pemimpin jemaat yang hidup tidak lama setelah zaman para rasul. Ia menulis beberapa surat yang sangat penting bagi orang Kristen pada masa itu. Dalam surat-suratnya, Ignatius menegaskan bahwa Yesus sungguh-sungguh manusia dan sungguh-sungguh Allah.Mengapa itu penting? Karena pada waktu itu ada orang-orang yang mengajarkan hal yang salah. Mereka berkata bahwa Yesus hanya kelihatan seperti manusia, tetapi sebenarnya tidak sungguh-sungguh menderita atau mati. Ignatius melawan ajaran itu. Ia menulis dengan tegas bahwa Yesus benar-benar lahir, benar-benar menderita, benar-benar disalibkan, benar-benar mati, dan benar-benar bangkit. Jadi, iman Kristen bukan cerita pura-pura, tetapi kebenaran yang sungguh terjadi.Yang lebih kuat lagi, Ignatius bukan hanya menulis tentang Yesus. Ia sendiri rela menderita karena imannya. Bahkan ia tetap setia kepada Tuhan Yesus walaupun harus menghadapi kematian. Itu menunjukkan bahwa Ignatius sungguh percaya bahwa Yesus adalah Tuhan yang hidup. Orang yang rela tetap setia sampai akhir menunjukkan bahwa imannya bukan main-main.Wonder Kids, ini mengajarkan kita bahwa percaya kepada Yesus bukan hanya soal tahu jawaban yang benar. Percaya kepada Yesus berarti sungguh yakin bahwa Dia hidup, lalu tetap setia kepada-Nya. Mungkin kita tidak menghadapi bahaya besar seperti Ignatius, tetapi kita tetap perlu berani mengikut Yesus saat diejek, saat sulit taat, atau saat harus memilih yang benar.Yesus berkata, “Akulah kebangkitan dan hidup.” Itu berarti orang yang percaya kepada Yesus memiliki pengharapan yang besar. Karena Yesus hidup, kita juga boleh hidup dengan berani dan setia kepada-Nya.Wonder Kids, hari ini lakukan ini: Katakan dalam doamu, “Tuhan Yesus, tolong aku percaya kepada-Mu dengan sungguh-sungguh dan tetap setia walaupun tidak mudah.”Mari kita berdoa: Tuhan Yesus, terima kasih karena Engkau sungguh hidup dan Engkau adalah kebangkitan dan hidup. Tolong aku supaya tidak hanya tahu tentang Engkau, tetapi sungguh percaya dan setia mengikut Engkau. Dalam nama Tuhan Yesus aku berdoa, Amin.Wonder Kids, ingatlah: Yesus sungguh hidup, sungguh bangkit, dan anak-anak Tuhan dipanggil untuk percaya kepada-Nya dengan setia. Tuhan Yesus memberkati.

Dibawakan oleh Patricia Yessika dari Paroki Santa Maria Tak Bercela di Keuskupan Surabaya, Indonesia. Kisah Para Rasul 18: 23-28; Mazmur tg 47: 2-3.8-9.10; Yohanes 16: 23b-28.MEMAKAI NAMAYESUS Renungan kita pada hari ini bertema: Memakai Nama Yesus. Jabatan sebagaipastor paroki membuat seorang imam sangat spesial. Umat sering menganggap bahwa“rekomendasi pastor paroki” merupakan sarana yang penting sekali untukmemudahkan mereka mengurusi banyak hal. Surat keterangan pastor paroki sudahmembereskan setengah bagian atau seluruh urusan tertentu. Misalnya ada orang ingin memasukkan anaknya ke sekolah yang terafiliasidengan gereja, atau mendapatkan lowongan kerja di perusahaan yang pemiliknyaadalah umat paroki. Mereka membawa pesan dan nama pastor paroki dan hasilnyasangat positif. Bisa saja Pastor sendiri yang memberikan rekomendasi. Bisa jugaia tidak mengetahuinya, tetapi nama dan jabatannya dipakai untuk kepentinganumat atau orang tertentu. Seperti inilah kalau kita memakai nama Yesus Kristus untuk berbagaikebutuhan yang disampaikan kepada Bapa. Semua doa kita diakhiri dengan “denganperantaraan Yesus Kristus”, berarti nama Yesus Kristus dipakai. Kita merasaspesial dan terhormat memakai nama-Nya. Dan Yesus sendiri tetap menjadi pelayankita meskipun Ia sudah bersatu dengan Bapa dan Roh Kudus di surga.  Apakah Yesus mengizinkan kita memakai nama-Nya? Tentu saja. Kalimat dariInjil Yohanes yang baru saja kita dengar menunjukkan bahwa Yesus sendirimeminta supaya kita memakai nama-Nya: apa saja yang kamu minta kepada Bapadalam nama-Ku, akan diberikan kepadamu. Memakai nama Yesus berarti kita sungguhmengenal dan mengakui Yesus secara benar, sehingga kita percaya bahwa Dia akanmemenuhi kebutuhan kita.  Mengetahui dan percaya kepada Dia secara benar dan utuh merupakan syaratyang tak bisa kita remehkan. Atas dasar ini maka Apollos diberikan semuapenjelasan secara menyeluruh tentang Yesus Kristus, supaya ia dapat memakainama Yesus secara benar dalam seluruh kegiatan pewartaannya. Kita jugamengambil tanggung jawab untuk memakai nama Yesus secara benar, dengan maksudyang benar agar nama Tuhan dimuliakan dan iman kita diperkuat.                                                               Kita harus bisa menghindari memakai nama Yesus secara sembarangan, misalnyamencatut istilah profan pada nama-Nya. Kita tidak boleh memakai nama Yesusuntuk meminta sesuatu yang curang, jahat atau melawan kemanusiaan. Kita jugaharus menghindari menggantikan posisi nama Yesus dengan nama orang kudus laintermasuk Bunda Maria, karena nama Yesus itu satu-satunya perantara kita kepadaBapa. Marilah kita berdoa.Dalam nama Bapa... Ya Tuhan Yesus Kristus, kuatkanlah pikiran dan hati kamiuntuk senantiasa memakai nama-Mu secara benar setiap kali kami berdoa danmemohon kepada Bapa. Semoga kami menaati dengan setia perintah-perintah-Mu danmemuji-Mu penuh dengan semangat iman kami, kini dan sepanjang masa. Amin. SalamMaria, penuh rahmat ... Dalam nama Bapa...

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.grounded.dayLast week we began our journey into Surat Al-Muddathir, and there is something striking about reading it directly after Surat Al-Muzzammil. The two surahs sit beside each other in the Mushaf, and they sit beside each other in meaning. If Al-Muzzammil is about spiritual development, Al-Muddathir is about community development. If Al-Muzzammil is the inward work, Al-Muddathir is the outward call. They complete each other.Both surahs open with the Prophet ﷺ being addressed by a state, not a name — the wrapped one, the cloaked one. The reason is human and tender. When the Prophet ﷺ first received revelation, he was terrified by his encounter with Jibreel. He rushed home to Khadijah and said, Zammiluni, zammiluni — cover me, cover me. Blanket me. Allah addresses him in that moment of vulnerability, and from that vulnerability calls him to a mission.Grounded is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.Qum — but this time, to warnBoth surahs contain the command Qum — stand up. In Al-Muzzammil it is Qumi al-layla illa qalila — stand up at night except for a little. Stand up to pray. Stand up to recite the Qur'an. Stand up to do the inward, spiritual work that prepares the heart.In Al-Muddathir it is something else:يَا أَيُّهَا الْمُدَّثِّرُ ۝ قُمْ فَأَنذِرْO you who are wrapped up, stand up and warn.Stand up — and warn whom? Your people. Your community. It is not enough that a Muslim is good only to himself, that he believes in Allah and prays and that is it. He sees evil and closes his eyes, keeps quiet. That is not the prophetic mission. The night prayer of Al-Muzzammil exists so that you have the strength to stand up in Al-Muddathir and speak.You cannot pour out into your community what you have not first received in the quiet of the night.Five commands for the messengerAfter Qum fa-andhir, Allah gives five short, weighty commands. Each is a piece of equipment for anyone carrying the prophetic mission.1. And your Lord — glorify Himوَرَبَّكَ فَكَبِّرْIn Arabic, the verb usually comes before the noun. The natural order would be Fa-kabbir Rabbak. But Allah inverts it: Wa Rabbaka fa-kabbir. Putting your Lord before the verb is not a stylistic accident — it restricts the action. Glorify only Him. Make great none other than Him.This is a message of tawhid. The prophetic mission begins with La ilaha illa Allah. The Prophet ﷺ was speaking to a community of pagans — there were more than 360 idols around the Ka'ba, one for every day of the year — and the first warning he was told to deliver was this: there is no god but Allah. Glorify only Him.

This week we worked through fifteen short ayat from Surat al-Muddaththir. Their brevity is a gift — perfect terrain for drilling fluency without getting lost in long breath patterns.A few rules surfaced again and again. Heavy Ra after a fatḥah or ḍammah, produced by raising the back of the tongue, never by pouting the lips. Throat letters given their proper place — the kha in khalaqtu, the hamzah in yu'thar. Idghām with ghunnah in mā lam mamdūdā, but iẓhār with no ghunnah at all in in hādhā. Qalqalah on the dāl of adbara, hams on the kāf of wastakbar — a bounce versus a small release of air.The reminder I keep returning to: ten minutes a day beats one hour once a week.

In this episode, Monika Halan simplifies one of the most misunderstood parts of personal finance—bonds and debt funds. She explains that a bond is essentially an “IOU,” where governments or companies borrow money and promise to pay interest along with the principal at maturity. Breaking down concepts like coupon, maturity, and face value, she highlights the single most important rule of the bond market—the inverse relationship between interest rates and bond prices. This foundational idea explains why bond investments behave the way they do.She then expands the discussion to debt mutual funds, which allow investors to access the bond market without directly buying individual bonds. She walks through different types of debt funds—ranging from liquid and short-duration funds to gilt and long-duration funds—along with their varying risk levels. The episode also explains the two key risks in debt investing: interest rate risk and credit risk.

When Luke records Jesus commanding the Twelve to take nothing for the journey, neither staff, nor bag, nor bread, nor money, he activates a deliberate stripping that recalls the scriptural logic of exile as exposure. The Hebrew root ג-ל-ה (gimel-lamed-heh) can function as “to uncover” or, by extension, “to go into exile,” linking displacement with nakedness in the prophetic texts themselves. There, exile is repeatedly portrayed as being uncovered, stripped naked, and shamed before the nations. Nakedness is not merely physical but signals dispossession and removal from the land. In Luke 8, the Gerasene demoniac embodies this condition, naked, outside the city among the tombs, cut off from communal and tribal life, a living figure of exposure in exile. When Jesus restores him, he is clothed and seated in his right mind, and he is commanded to return home to bear fruit as a witness, with nothing in hand but the knowledge of his sins and the command of God. Immediately afterward, in Luke 9, Jesus sends the Twelve out divested of staff and supplies, stripped of institutional and tribal supports, and of any authority derived from them. Though not naked in body, they are stripped of the signs of power, protection, affiliation, and provision. Both the demoniac and the Twelve thus reflect the same scriptural function: exile as nakedness, and exposure out in the open as the precondition of restoration for mission.ῥάβδος (rhabdos) / מ-ט-ה (mem-ṭet-heh)Staff; tribe, delegated power. From the triliteral root נ-ט-ה (nun-ṭet-heh), to stretch out, to extend, to incline.“And you shall take in your hand this staff [מַטֶּה (maṭṭeh)] with which you shall do the signs.” (Exodus 4:17)The staff represents what is stretched out. In Exodus, it symbolizes the instrument through which delegated authority operates, acting as an extended hand. In Numbers 17, each leader brings his staff, which denotes his tribe. Extension here signifies lineage: what is stretched out becomes a branch, and that branch becomes a tribe. Thus, the rod is not just wood but a visible symbol of authority and continuity, indicating the ordered descent and delegated power.ῥάβδος (rhabdos) / ש-ב-ט (šin-bet-ṭet)Rod, scepter, tribe. From the triliteral root ש-ב-ט (šin-bet-ṭet), associated with striking and ruling.“You shall break them with a rod [בְּשֵׁבֶט (be-šebeṭ)] of iron.” (Psalm 2:9)The rod is the instrument of rule. It disciplines, enforces, and governs. In Proverbs, it corrects; in Isaiah, it becomes the rod of divine anger; in royal psalms, it signifies sovereign authority. The same word names a tribe, linking governance with structure. The rod is therefore not merely a stick but embodied jurisdiction, the visible sign of judicial and royal power.ῥάβδος (rhabdos) / ק-ל-ל (qof-lamed-lamed)Rod; stick; branch, to be light, slight.“And the Philistine said to David, ‘Am I a dog, that you come to me with sticks [בַּמַּקְלוֹת (ba-maqqelot)]?'” (1 Samuel 17:43)This rod belongs to the field, not the throne. It is the shepherd's implement, the ordinary support of the traveler. In Genesis 30 Jacob uses rods in the tending of flocks; in Samuel David carries them into battle as a shepherd confronting a warrior. The stick here signifies pastoral presence rather than institutional authority. It is wood in the hand of the lowly, not the emblem of a court.ῥάβδος (rhabdos) / ש-ע-ן (šin-ʿayin-nun)Staff of support. From the verbal root ש-ע-ן (šin-ʿayin-nun), to lean upon, to rely.“Behold, you are trusting in Egypt, that broken staff [מִשְׁעֶנֶת (mišʿenet)] of reed.” (Isaiah 36:6)The staff here is what one leans upon. It represents reliance, alliance, and structural backing. When it breaks, dependence collapses, and the individual who is leaning on it falls. The rod becomes a metaphor for political trust and misplaced confidence. It is not an instrument of striking but of support, the symbol of that upon which stability rests.ῥάβδος (rhabdos) / שַׁרְבִיט (šarbiṭ)Scepter; royal staff. Likely a Persian (modern-day Iran) loanword associated with imperial authority.“If the king holds out the golden scepter [שַׁרְבִיט (šarbiṭ)] that is in his hand, he shall live.” (Esther 4:11)In Esther, the rod is sovereignty compressed into a single gesture. Life and death depend on whether it is extended. It is not the shepherd's staff, not the tribal symbol, not the rod of discipline. It is ceremonial kingship embodied in gold. The scepter draws the line between execution and mercy, exclusion and acceptance. Authority is visible, concentrated in the king's hand.But does the king's own life ultimately matter? A wise leader knows that his life is of little value because it does not belong to him. As Jesus commands, the sign of God is neither the owner, the support, nor the strength of God's many peoples. There is no god but God. Scripture repeatedly shows, through Persian rulers like Cyrus and Xerxes, that real control belongs neither to Israel, nor to the king, nor to the empire. Sovereignty belongs to God alone, who governs history itself, directing kings as easily as he directs the sun and the moon, according to his plan.πήρα (pera)Shepherd's bag.“And he took his staff [τὴν ῥάβδον (ten rabdon)] in his hand and chose for himself five smooth stones from the brook and put them in the shepherd's bag [εἰς τὴν πήραν τὴν ποιμενικήν (eis ten peran ten poimeniken)]…” (1 Samuel 17:40 LXX)David advances toward Goliath carrying two things: the rabdos (ῥάβδος) and the pera (πήρα). The rabdos is the shepherd's staff, the maqel (מַקֵל), a rod in the hand of one who tends flocks. The pera is the shepherd's satchel, the container of stones and the place of stored provision. One extends the arm; the other holds what sustains the strike. This is the only occurrence of pera (πήρα) in the Septuagint.The five stones evoke Torah, the Five Books. Their smoothness carries the root ח-ל-ק (ḥet-lamed-qof) / ح-ل-ق (ḥāʾ-lām-qāf). In Hebrew, ḥalaq is to divide, to apportion, to allot. In Arabic, ḥalaqa is to shave, to make smooth, to strip bare. These are not separate functions. To smooth a stone is to shape it by removal. To allot land is to cut it from the whole. The triliteral holds division and preparation together.The brook itself sharpens the resonance. Naḥal (נַחַל), from the root נ־ח־ל (nun-ḥet-lamed) / ن-ح-ل (nūn-ḥāʾ-lām), in Hebrew is a wadi, a seasonal stream. But the same consonants in both languages yield naḥalah (נַחֲלָה), naḥala (نَحَلَ) / niḥla (نِحْلَة) inheritance, endowment, gift, or allotted possession. Water and land converge in the root. David reaches into the stream and draws out inheritance. Surat al-Naḥl سورة النحل refers to “The Bee,” an animal associated with provision, honey, and divinely guided producti...

Particulate matter is, Michael Greenstone argues, the greatest public health threat on the planet. Worse than HIV, cigarettes, and alcohol. The average person  loses about two years of life expectancy to it. In India, the figure is three and a half years. The solution to this problem has been tested, and it works, at least in high-income countries.Greenstone and his co-authors ran a randomised controlled trial in Surat, Gujarat: from 300 industrial plants, mostly making textiles, all burning coal, half were randomly assigned to a market where pollution permits could be bought and sold. The results: in the market, pollution fell 25%, compliance was near-perfect, and abatement costs dropped 12%. The cost-benefit ratio is as high as 200 to one. Many plants in the control group asked to be moved into the market.The research behind this episode:Greenstone, Michael, Rohini Pande, Nicholas Ryan, and Anant Sudarshan. 2025. "Can Pollution Markets Work in Developing Countries? Experimental Evidence from India." Quarterly Journal of Economics 140 (2): 1003–1060. An ungated version is available as BFI Working Paper 2025-53.To cite this episode:Phillips, Tim. 2025. "Can Pollution Markets Work in Developing Countries?" VoxDev Talk (podcast).  Assign this as extra listening: the citation above is formatted and ready for a reading list or VLE.About Michael GreenstoneMichael Greenstone is the Milton Friedman Distinguished Service Professor in Economics at the University of Chicago, where he is the founding Director of the Energy Policy Institute at Chicago (EPIC) and the Institute for Climate and Sustainable Growth. His research focuses on the costs and benefits of environmental quality, including the Air Quality Life Index, which tracks the toll of particulate pollution country by country. He previously served as Chief Economist for the President's Council of Economic Advisers under President Obama. Research cited in this episodeAir Quality Life Index (AQLI), Energy Policy Institute at Chicago. The source of the life-expectancy statistics used in this episode: particulate pollution costs the average person on Earth roughly two years of life expectancy, with India averaging three and a half years. The index tracks this burden country by country, city by city.The US sulphur dioxide cap-and-trade programme, established under the 1990 Clean Air Act Amendments, was the canonical precedent Greenstone cited: a market that dramatically reduced acid rain in the eastern United States at costs far below pre-programme projections. He noted that the UK and EU have since built comparable CO2 markets. All have worked well. The question this experiment addressed was whether the same logic held in the developing world, where almost all the pollution now is.Emissions Market Accelerator. An independent scale-up organisation founded by Greenstone and colleagues to replicate the Gujarat model beyond the original research setting. Current pipeline: a statewide sulphur dioxide market for Maharashtra (including large power plants, not just textiles), and advanced conversations in Pakistan and Brazil. Within Gujarat, a water pollution market is also in development.More VoxDev Talks on this topicRegulating pollution in low- and middle-income countries Rohini Pande and Nicholas Ryan, two co-authors of the paper discussed in this episode, on the political economy of pollution regulation in developing countries: why enforcement is hard, and what makes it work.Air pollution and infant mortality Jennifer Burney on the health costs of particulate air pollution for young children, and what the evidence from Saharan dust patterns across Sub-Saharan Africa reveals about exposure and mortality.The Social Cost of Carbon Michael Greenstone's earlier VoxDev Talk, on how assigning a monetary value to carbon emissions can drive better policy decisions and make the case for action that regulation alone struggles to make.Related reading on VoxDevReducing air pollution: Evidence from payments to reduce crop burning in India How cash payments to farmers in northern India changed behaviour and cut the seasonal haze from crop fires that pushes Delhi's air quality to its worst each winter.Paying to pollute: How carbon offsets actually raised emissions in China A cautionary study on market-based pollution controls: when incentives point the wrong way, a market can make things worse rather than better.The effect of pollution on worker productivity: Evidence from call-centre workers in China Air pollution reduces cognitive performance and output, adding an economic productivity argument to the health case for cleaning the air.
