THE PHENOMENON OF
HANGING OUT IN COFFEE SHOPS
BE PRESENT LIFESTYLE IN
ACEH
A. Background Problem
A culture of refuge to enjoy coffee in
the coffee shop is the culture in Indonesia is most often found in various
corners. The phenomenon is easily found from Sabang to Merauke. Like in Aceh is
famous for its large number of coffee shops that are always crowded starting
from the morning, as well as other areas in Sumatra. In Java, Sulawesi and
Kalimantan, as well as other areas, too much coffee stalls with typical
regional coffee each.
However, the main purpose of the
visitors at the coffee shop isn't limited to just get some coffee. But as a
place to chat, discuss, exchange ideas from mild to severe problems. With
increasing progress and modern lifestyles, coffee shops are now merged together
with the packaging. Any variety of functions, can be as a place of meeting with
business associates, arisan, even young hangout.
In the digital age now, where
discussions and chat is no longer located somewhere. But rather evolve in the
virtual world. See the phenomenon that seeks to integrate the culture of coffee
shops and the digital era, into a coffee shop, so this is how the phenomenon is
visible now.
B. Coffee shop as a place
of tradition and Thrill
The tradition of drinking coffee,
followed by chatting at a coffee shop is not a new habit for the citizens of
Aceh. The habit of "killing time" is already underway in hundreds of
years ago. That habit started from a port and trade centers visited people. Up
to this very second, the habit of "hanging out" in the coffee shop
instead of reduced, even thousands of coffee shops located in Aceh.
A fact proving to us that coffee shops
are only media so that they can be present in public space as other citizens.
In a public space named coffee shops that are sometimes very noisy, they gained
the freedom to chat while taking off, as well as being a vehicle for
entertainment.
Traffic flow information in the coffee
shop is very up to date, the latest and fastest. For those who want to know the
development of an area, please "hanging out" in the coffee shop and
look carefully for their chat. Certainly, we will find a variety of
"chain" the missing information.
C. Coffee shops as Social
Context of Aceh
Whether the coffee at the coffee shop in
the region of Aceh Nangroe Darussalam just the same? If you drink coffee at the
coffee shop in the coastal cities such as Banda Aceh, Biereun, Lhokseumawe,
Langsa, Meulaboh, etc. then the taste of the coffee is known by the public as
Ule Kareng coffee flavour which also honours celebrities in there. However, if
you drink coffee dikedai-Tavern in Bener Meriah, Kutacane and Takengon, then
isn't the taste of Ule Kareng you meet, but flavors Gayo coffee black and
harder. In the city the last three flavors coffee Ule Kareng could also meet
especially at the coffee shop opened by the Acehnese coast.
Coffee and coffee shop in Aceh
contextual indeed. Depending on the region where culture and taste, mouth and
your stomach is formed. For those who grew up in the culture of Gayo then
missed it feels if a day has not been drinking coffee Gayo. Vice versa, who
grew up in the culture of Aceh coasts longing for coffee flavour Ule Kareng.
But it is said that the basic ingredients of coffee beans taste Ule Kareng any
Gayo coffee comes from, only processed in ways, techniques, and different
seasonings.
Let us now examine the phenomenon of get
some coffee in the coffee stalls in Aceh is more broadly. This is interesting
because as time goes by, the coffee stalls in Aceh appeared rapidly bak Boletus
in the rainy season. Is it true that this is just sheer trade phenomenon as
many note that the people of Aceh have the talent of a great trade. Or can we
runut the phenomenon of this coffee shop in the historical and cultural Aceh
kotek.
When are exactly hanging out in coffee
shops, or if in the European region is called the "cafe", began to
spread. Coffee was first presented to the public audience as a coffee shop, or
a service called kiva han or there is also called qahveh khaneh (meaning
preventive drowsiness), was in Constantinople (Istanbul), Turkey in 1475.[1]
That time there was only one coffee shop. Seventy-nine years later, precisely
the year 1554 two coffee shops opened again in Istanbul. In Turkey at that
coffee shop, also known as "school of wise". By coming to the stall
and drinking coffee the person getting smarter, because there could be
listening to music, talking about a variety, or simply heard the discussions
develop.
According to the study of many comrades
binis coffee development in Aceh is very significant in post Tsunami and the
Helsinki MoU. The world and the atmosphere to hang out drinking coffee has
grown manifold, ranging from the traditional-conventional to modern-metropolis,
complete with numerous amenities and accessories to complement the promotion.
There is a coffee shop, there is a Cafe coffee, two names that actually means
the same as "coffee shops". Antiquity of the shadow of the
"Tavern" or "stall" coffee is a coffee place with furniture
bermeja Board, wooden chairs, home of stall Board, without AIR CONDITIONING or
a fan. This is the conventional picture. Now the "Tavern" or
"stall" coffee takes place and the more luxurious spaces design
exactly like we see "cafe-cafe" on foreign films, even equipped with
internet access.
That's the location of the
"plus" that coffee shop in Aceh (especially in Banda Aceh) is managed
with a modern design, setting the room nice and fancy face on the
"well", with a light romantic setting, equipped with internet access,
and in some store or cafe waiters were young women.
In the tavern-coffee shop "the
outskirts", meaning that is a coffee shop that is located in the Township,
its customers are indeed dominated men. But this condition is already far
different from the store or cafe coffee that exist in the city. The clientele
was almost comparable between men and women.
Guests came from various walks of life either child high school, the
students, the civil servants as well as swata, the business people, the
unemployed, artists, NGO activists, and other assorted. It appears that topics
that are dibicarakanpun the various appearances of either just joked, but some
are discussing the development of local and national politics, business,
student discussion, or just menggosip, and of course some are dating.
Coffee shop, which is now often wear the
term cafe, is not just a social institution associated with trade and services
only. Coffee shops tend to be transformed into a social institution into an
arena where there is almost no political boundary of social boundaries. If we
want to negotiate "day job" with the functionaries, bureaucrats will
be very different feels, if started in the coffee cafe. If a business partner
who were first brought to the kitadekati cafe-cafe coffee, maybe naunsa-shades
of the next negotiation will be more smooth.
D. Between Aceh coffee
shop and the history of the past
Now let's take a deeper question,
whether the tavern-coffee shop in Aceh in the history of Aceh contributed
critical alternatives to the "new world" order?. For example, if the
tavern-coffee shop in the colonial era, used to have a role as arena compiled a
heroic ideas and practices the strategy of resistance for the sake of a
sovereign nation and a esteemed? I dunno, maybe there was no historiography in
historical records about it, and the author also has never found a
mengintepretasi article about it.
But may be done for reconstruction
between the history of the spread of the coffee, the history entry of Islamic
influences (especially Turkey and Arabic) and on the other side of the history
of heroic fighters in Aceh. From the reconstruction that was probably a little
bit of stuff we can meintepretasi is life "coffee shops" have been
coloring "Aceh's past.
Netherlands finally got the seeds the
coffee beans around the 17th century, in an attempt to cut the chain of coffee
trade monopoly by the Arabs. In 1610, the Netherlands tried mengembangbiakkan
this coffee plant in India but less so successful. In 1699 Netherlands tried again
mengembangbiakkan plant coffee in coffee plantations in Ceylon and Java
(Indonesia) in 1699.[2] The end through the VOC Netherlands trade
institutions successfully exporting coffee in 1711. Indonesia was the site of
the first plantation outside of Arabia and Ethiopia and VOC monopolized coffee
trading from 1725 to 1780. The VOC then widened wings by planting coffee
outside of Java such as in Sumatra, Bali, Sulawesi and Timor. The coffee plant
is finally getting into the Gayo Highlands (Aceh) circa 1924.[3]
This is the relationship of communities
of people in Aceh with the Muslims, in a more constructive and organized in the
form of trade, cooperation as well as cross-breeding two official institutions
of the Sultanate, an Islamic Sultanate of Perlak started at around 8. Then also
with the Samudra Pasai Empire around the 10th century, and continued with
stronger relationships through kesultnan Aceh Darussalam beginning in the 12th
century.
E. Get Some Coffee As The
Habit Of People Of Aceh
There is such a notion that Banda Aceh is
the city with the world's largest coffee shop. Coffee shops in Aceh in
particular in the city of Banda Aceh has been growing very rapidly with a wide
range of style and facilities. The habit
of "get some coffee" on the people of Aceh is indeed remarkable. To the extent that some district/city
governments had time to worry about discipline officers because sitting in the
coffee shop. Indeed "get some coffee" it just want a snack, just
traditions have so hereditary habit, or in the corner of another "get some
coffee" has a hidden meaning (unconciusness) in life.
If people just want to drink coffee of
course can be done at home, less expensive, and delicious coffee powder-powder
can be purchased at stalls, kiosks, or the nearest supermarket. It is obvious the
reasons just want coffee is not strictly true. "Get some coffee" at
cafe is the arena that is sought as well as desired. Coffee shop not only stall
owners arena to serve the economy. More than that coffee shop has become a
sought after and desired arena of the consumers. Get some coffee has become a
symbol of the needs of the communities in Aceh.
According to the view of the author
within the Acehnese blood flowing from India and Arabia, where people are often
referred to as the "Tiger of the pulpit" aka likes to talk (not in
the negative sense). Out there in the "ritual" real life as bound by
the constraints of the sociological and cultural barriers, so can't speak
recklessly at will in a relationship that is worth it. Then in the coffee shop
of the expression of desire to talk can be poured out without being too
complicated with the boundary bulkhead and the structure of the hemming.
It's one of the reasons. The next reason is that life is full of
"Ritus/Rite", which is loaded with rules and norms that restrict[4],
replete with social and cultural structure of the bulkhead. Almost no or very
little "freedom" there. Semunya it fosters Burnout, hopelessness,
cynicism, psychological pressures, energy, anger and conflict invidual or
group. Such is the image of sosilologi and anthropology experts regarding ritus
and life, one of which is represented by the thought Van Gennep and Victor
Turner.[5]
The transformation of the values to the Aceh-contextual author
sure can certainly be done, sourced from liminalitas[6],
"get some coffee," coffee shop, then brewing with open thoughts of
non-domination. Should we learn from Japan in learning about
"transformation". As a bit of a sample course: Japan is a country
with "a thousand earthquake".[7]
They actually have a traditional houses earthquake resistant
peninggalaan great thought civilized ancestors centuries. But the Middle
diujicobakaan and some already implemented, rather than building traditional
House plus Foundation growing strong earth buildings, or neither continue to build
modern buildings with the Foundation of the Earth's menghuja claw into the
ground the stronger. The value is taken from the Japan traditional house
tradition of "flexibility" towards earthquake (the movement of the
Earth). Now Japan is already build and continuous learning toward
"flexible House Foundation" to the movement of the Earth due to the
earthquake, flexible both horizontally as well as fertikal.
F. Impact Of The Coffee
Shop On The Community And The Individual
Judging
from the positive side, coffee shops can be a container silaturrahmi, relaxing
and to access the internet for free so that makes it easy for teenagers working
on educational tasks. Let alone coffee shop also provides a small mosque for
visitors who want to exercise the duties of religion. So, have no reason to
leave the main task as the Muslim Ummah (unless it fails). Not rarely we see a
young man who checks cok with parents because of neglect in coffee shops with
friends because of the work of the school or College are often left out let
alone grow older people had also been overlooked since it was already hooked on
coffee shop.
In addition
to this coffee shop is also negatively affect for users such as, negligence
while playing games, browsing, or communicating with social networks such as
Facebook, Twitter, YM (Yahoo Massanger), Skype and others. These conditions
make communication with friends next to be tight-lipped, because the whole
concentration is redirected to the Laptop. The negative impact is to forget the
time, because it is too asiknya browsing, playing games or chatting sampe
forget clay time subconsciously been late at night, forgot to pray or have gone
to College the next day. Lastly, many coffee consumption also resulted in
diseases of the stomach acid and insomnia.
G. Coffee shop, WI-FI, and
the future of Aceh
The
phenomenon of coffee shops in Banda Aceh have started popping up in the early
2000s. This phenomenon gave birth to a new icon besides the porch of Mecca,
namely Aceh Coffee and coffee shop. Anyone remember the Acehnese will be given
coffee and coupled with an abundance of coffee shops in many places. This
phenomenon eventually formed a culture ' ' get some coffee at the coffee shop
which is very creamy with the Acehnese. Where the culture is creating a two-sided,
positive and negative.
Recently
when we travel on the road to the city or the Aceh Market, precisely in the
lamnyong place is very close to Nottingham, then we will find a coffee shop
that which I think is a unique thing for us to see, namely a coffee shop that
was once a private campus a place in College, but now below into a very elegant
coffee shop. Coffee shops are processed in such a way with wifi, but it still
remains a place of study. This is a very unique blend according to the author.
Warung kopi
Aceh for the people not just the usual hangout, but slowly changed position not
only as a place to drink coffee alone or sitting with a friend but but has now
become a place where people discuss politics, where people are talking
business, a place where people talk about the job, the place where people talk
projects, even up to the iPhone project. Pembisnis large in Aceh had been using
a coffee shop as a place to establish cooperation with other pembisnis. Even
some people use coffee shop as a place of work or their Office.
Get some
coffee ' culture ' in coffee shops is a little much cultural mengeserkan Aceh
and social values during this already built with great skill by our ancestors.
Proven is when his sense of community to behave socially getting lower and
starts to fade away because they spent much time chatting at a coffee shop than
to behave socially or drop by in place of brother, more hanging out instead of
having to share the work, more relaxing in coffee shops from cleans at mosques
or come to kanduri. The community being lazy to work. Lazy community to spend
time for the family. Mirisnya again when the coffee shop became a ' shield '
for those who are job.
Don't just
stop there, the situation was getting worse with the presence of WI-FI in every
coffee shop or cafe so that visitors that most of the nation's young adults
have very fond of spending time to linger there. This is what I feared. Coffee
shop, Wifi, and get some coffee culture has formed a weak character generation
in Aceh. Slacker generation, a generation that apathy that didn't want to be
creative and innovation, a generation that didn't want to work, a generation
that just sits, a generation that just might also take advantage of what
exists, but does not want to think. For this reason I don't just fall out, but
from the results of observation and observing in passing then I can give you a
conclusion as the above exposure. And that is how it stands, miris, misgivings
as well as very worrying against the future of young people in Aceh in the
future.[8]
80 percent
of visitors coffee shop is a student or students, the rest was people Office.
They spent much of the time for things that are not useful (although there are
some there are who do positive things), but speaking generally, then we are
talking a dominant number that I have seen so far. A collection of students
came one team, sat busy-busy hang out, play games, play poker Facebook, listen
to music, spend one class coffee, laughing-ketiwi 12 hours night, came home,
some even until the morning. If it's like this the next generation of the
nation want to be brought where the country? My statement is true does not
reduce the value of a lot of people doing positive things in the coffee shop.
But a very mayoritaslah look for it gives an assumption of no good to the
public.
Aceh has
indeed become a Cyber City, almost all can access the internet, specifically in
the cafe or at the coffee shop. We can order one glass of drink and enjoy the
WIFI facility. But the fact that we see are the Acehnese turned out not ready
with his presence. The people of Aceh are still too naive to understand that
the internet is an opportunity which the globalization approached them a chance
of development. The people of Aceh should still learn much that internet
presence is no longer as mere entertainment such as the internet It first
appeared in advance of this earth.
Perhaps as
a society, we're a little desperate look at the phenomenon of coffee shops and
WIFI are very little used in positive things by the younger generation. But
behind it all we also expect a lot of that in the future coffee shop and WIFI
no longer works for a cup of coffee, relax and play games only. God willing in
the future, the generation of Aceh can make money, creativity, science as they
sat in a coffee shop.
H. Hanging Out In Coffee Shops Be Present Lifestyle
The people of Aceh utilizing this coffee
shop to meet and interact. At the coffee shop they swap stories, Exchange
information, and plan something. They were sitting in the coffee shop and talk
about various things. Starting from issue Office, political issues, until
personal problems. AntonioLopez (1995) in its article, the CoffeeShop Culture:
Daysin the Life Manila's Gossip Mill mentioned that in Manila there are several
reasons people visit a coffee shop, a first for a coffee, the two mutually
hear, the three form a friendship, a fourth hearing good news and bad, fifth
gain information about what is happening in once one corner of the social life
of the community, and the latter made such things on top of something good for
yourself.[9]
Lifestyle, according to Kottler[10],
described the "whole person" that interact with their surroundings.
According to Susanto[11],
lifestyle is a blend between the needs of self-expression and expectation of
the group against someone in the Act on the basis of the applicable norms.
Therefore many of the known range of life style that developed in the community
now for example hedonist lifestyle, lifestyle, lifestyle of a global metropolis
and others. Plummer (1983), said that the lifestyle is a way of life in
individuals identify by him how people spend their time (activity), what they
consider to be important in his life (interest) and what they think about the
world around it. Adler[12],
stated that lifestyle is the most effect on the attitudes and behavior of a
person in relation to the main 3 things in life IE work, friendships, and love
while Sarwono (1989), States that one of the factors that affect the life style
is the concept of the self.
Cultural society which increasingly
globalizing certainly require facilities as well as a means of entertainment
and more modern technology. Globalization has become a major force in need of
proper response because he forced a strategy of survival for various groups and
communities (Featherstone,1991).[13]
Increased human resource demanding needs for information technology and more
advanced lifestyle.
The tradition of drinking coffee in the
culture of the people of Aceh have been very ingrained. The need to meet, sit
down together and swap stories or information has become a culture in everyday
life the people of Aceh. Hospitality the people of Aceh are intimately and
coffee shop into one of the reason. Rights tradition of hospitality the people
of Aceh due to still the availability of public places to interact. The coffee
shop can be reached by all walks of life are able to liaise between one group
of society to other societies. It makes
the coffee shop gives the impression to the people of Aceh.
I. Conclusion
From the
results of the exposure above, then authors can conclude that with the
development of the era was so rapid. Coffee shop at the time now there have
been many changes and shifts in meaning and function. The times is now a coffee
shop as well as a form of effective communication for dialogue, discussion,
observation, research, wawacara coffee shop places an appreciation society that
public opinion hurled at daily life and even used the event discussion,
dialogue society in General Indonesia and Aceh in particular.
Coffee shop isn't the case just hanging out, listlessness, chat
here and there but also as a place to meet the citizens of various
cross-culture, a great variety of backgrounds that are owned by the community.
Coffee shop has a large enough research, the benefits are many, and can be made
of the study case category in the communication sciences. Indeed coffee shop
lots noisenya in the case of communicating but it help me a lot and especially
made research about effective communication does cross cultural communications
and very much and need in-depth study.
In addition, the authors also suggest to parents and young people
especially Aceh in order to divide the time while in the coffee shop and can
benefit from the coffee shop as a place to create a science that could develop
and make public spaces as kupi stalls for various purposes whatever as far as
that bring benefit and comfort and peace for the general public and also of
course for users of coffee houses as a means of communication the good fellow
in Aceh as well as abroad.
