Description
The story is on how we seek growth amid rapid change. Change always starts by moving. The answers had to be discovered, a long journey through collision and dimension. As the trains or 'express' are invented, they symbolized globalization to be relevant, timeless, and travel unaffected by timelines. With a variety of passengers, it went home or somewhere they had never been. Technology should help us advance, the development phase reflecting civilization, forming acculturation as the future form of social cohesion, not an elimination of origin.
As change is always constant, how do we survive this express passage? There are Indonesian maxim, "Bhinneka Tunggal Ika" - which means Unity in Diversity. Bringing everything that has been learned together, the true meaning and purpose of supporting globalization by combining the culture, will give birth to something that are meant to be. Acculturation, tolerating different and diverse social cohesion and using technology be the best version of future perspectives that everyone expected. So everyone can live in peace and at their own pace, their own identity - while embracing diversity.
