Reflection
i enjoyed this trip very much. From this trip, I learned a lot about mining regulations and mining. I visit great landscapes that are very beautiful. We discovered a lot of things while in Bangka and Belitung through all the sources we went to. The results we got for our movie assignment was very reliable because they were all primary sources. The funnest part of this trip is getting to see its beautiful nature that I don't see everyday. This trip helped me grow more independent because I learned to take care of myself and others. The result of this trip is a documentary movie, which is also a fun thing to do. My group consisting Rara and Reza decided to split jobs. We made our interview questions before the trip and Rara/Reza asks them during the trip while I record for the movie. We had our movie done by the 27th of March. I would recommend this trip because I had lots of fun.
Knowledge and academic learning
During the trip, we got the opportunity of government officials and local villagers regarding illegal/legal mining, as well as Bangka Belitung's ecosystem. I learned that not all tin mining that are held in Bangka is illegal. There are still illegal tin mining that is happening in Bangka because the government is not very strict about this matter (source:Kecamatan). The interview we had with the nurse in the local hospital told us that their ecosystem can also effect their health conditions.
