Indonesia is under threat of schism. The RAN Institute study in America predicts a new hypothesis if Indonesian do not adequately manage its country, it will split into eight parts.

Previously, Pennsylvania University has also mapped the fragile countries in the world and gave birth to the fragility state index of nations. From a study conducted by Indonesia, it is in yellow status and might slip in red, because from the 178 countries ranked, Indonesia is on 88th ranked position.

"That scientific study (academic) is not a political study, so it is purely from academics that we also have to criticize together," said the Vice-Chancellor for Education, Teaching and Student Affairs, Prof. Dr. Ir. Djagal Wiseso Marseno, M.Agr., In front of the regents, members of DPRD, Regional Secretary, Regional Development Planning Agency, Study Program Managers and Study Interests at UGM Graduate School on Thursday (12/3) when opened the Workshop session on the Role of Higher Education in Supporting Regional Independence Based on Strengthening Local Potential and Local Wisdom.

Djagal acknowledged that cooperation between universities and the district government was essential. Because, after a study from both UGM and the national resilience institute shows that Indonesia's national resilience from 2010 to 2018 is indeed in yellow status.

"It means that Indonesia's resilience is not tough enough. Although it improved a bit in 2018 - 2019, but the nominal is still very small,” he explained.

Djagal said that in the component of national resilience, known as gatra-gatra. In the country's defense, there are eight gatra consisting of tri gatra and panca gatra. Tri gatra consists of geography, demography, and natural resources, while the five gatra consists of ideology, politics, economy, social culture, and defense and security.

Interestingly, from the eight gatra since 2010 - 2019, the ideology gatra is in yellow status. That is, ideology or idealism as a nation and state is seen as less resilient and has an impact on the socio-cultural life, which also has yellow status.

"The next impact is on politics and natural resources. So, there is a common thread between ideology, social culture, politics, and the management of natural resources. This common thread is what came to the attention of President Jokowi's administration in period 1 to build infrastructure, and period 2 to build human resources," he said.

Therefore, he welcomed when the UGM Postgraduate School then took the initiative to collaborate with the local government at the district level so that the sciences or sciences at UGM with 290 study programs could contribute to the development of the nation and state starting from the district level.

"We have any knowledge at UGM, ranging from philosophy to nuclear engineering. So, if later there are some problems and they have the potentials to support the development, UGM is willing to work with the district government to develop regional potential," he added.

Dean of the UGM Postgraduate School, Prof. Ir. Siti Malkhamah, M. Sc., Ph.D., stated that the Postgraduate School collaboration workshop expected to have an impact on the participating regions so that it helped in the process of regional development. Through this workshop, the initiation of cooperation and follow-up can be realized in the form of the synergy of human resource assistance by the UGM Postgraduate School for each region to help improve the process of accelerating equitable development in the areas following problem-solving in the fields.

"It expected to impact region participants involved in the activity so that it helps in the process of developing the region itself. With the cooperation of UGM Postgraduate Schools and the participating regions, I hope they can support the realization of the implementation of the three-tri dharma of higher education by the Postgraduate Schools and support regional development," she explained.
