Merbabu Family Park
Taman
pada perkembanganya mempunyai begitu banyak fungsi. Dari fungsi
rekreasi, olahraga, taman bermain, hingga berkumpul bersama keluarga.
Pada hakikatnya taman merupakan ruang public yang dapat dinikmati
semua orang.
Merbabu
Family park merupakan salah satu taman yang berada di Kota Malang,
Jawa Timur. Taman ini baru saja diresmikan pada tanggal 14 Juni 2014
oleh Walikota Malang. Taman yang mengusung tema taman keluarga ini
mempunyai berbagai fasilitas pendukung, seperti taman baca, lapangan
futsal, alat-alat olahraga, hingga arena bermain anak-anak.
Kerkurangan
yang terlihat jelas pada taman ini adalah kurang rindang. Hal ini
wajar karena mengingat “usia” taman yang masih baru sehingga
pohon-pohon yang ditanam di tengah-tengah taman masih belum cukup
rindang.
Tentunya
segala hal dapat dinilai positif maupun negatifnya harus ada standar
yang dapat dijadikan pembanding. Berdasarkan standar dari pps.org
(Project for Public Space) ada 4 kriteria ruang public dikatakan
berhasil yaitu aksesibilitas dan keterkaitan, kenyamanan dan
pemandangan, pemanfaatan dan aktifitas, serta sosialisasi.
Kriteria
pertama mengenai aksesibilitas, di taman Merbabu tidak terdapat akses
angkutan umum yang secara khusus melewati taman tersebut. Terlebih
jalan disekitar taman tersebut hanya satu arah karena kondisi jalan
yang memang tidak lebar. Sehingga pengunjung yang masih belum mengnal
betul arah jalan di Malang akan kesulitan menemukan taman ini.
Meskipun secara lokasi taman ini dekat dengan beberapa kampus tetapi
tetap akan sulit untuk menemukan taman ini jika tidak paham dengan
peraturan jalan satu arah yang diterapkan pada di daerah sekitar
taman ini.
Kriteria
kedua menganai kenyamanan dan pemandangan. Konsep panataan taman
merbabu sudah dapat dikatakan estetis secara visual karena faktor
usia taman yang masih baru sehingga fasilitas taman masih relative
terjaga meski ada beberapa bagian alat yang rusak dan beberapa bagian
tribun yang berada di sebelah lapangan futsal tak luput dari aksi
vandalisme tangan-tangan tidak bertanggung jawab.
Kebersihan
taman juga cukup baik. Tempat sampah yang tersedia cukup. Namun taman
yang kurang rindang disesalkan pengunjung. Pohon-pohon besar hanya
berada pada tepi taman, sehingga pada siang hari pengunjung lebih
memilih untuk beristrahat di pinggir. Tidak ada fasilitas seperti
gazebo juga sangat disayangkan. Fasilitas untuk duduk hanya berupa
beberapa tempat duduk yang tersebar di beberapa penjuru taman
khususnya di sepanjang jalan setapak yang dibuat di dalam taman
sehingga jika siang hari pengunjung tidak dapat memanfaatkan karena
panas.
Kriteria
ketiga yaitu pemanfaatan dan aktivitas. Pengunjung taman ini beragam
dari segi usia dan tidak di dominasi segmen umur tertentu. Mulai dari
anak-anak, remaja, hingga dewasa menggunakan fasilitas taman ini. Hal
ini karena ditunjang dari fasilitas yang ada di taman dapat
dimanfaatkan oleh segala usia seperti, alat olahraga, reflexion path,
sarana bermain anak, hingga lapangan futsal.
Kriteria
ke empat mengenai sosialisasi. Sosialisasi taman merbabu masih sangat
kurang. Letaknya yang tidak dilalui transportasi umum juga merupakan
salah satu faktor penghambat sosialisasi. Disekitar taman juga masih
jarang toko, sehingga kondisi lingkungan sekitar sepi. Meskipun
pengunjung taman cukup banyak, namun di kemudian hari seharusnya ada
sosialisasi mengenai keberadaan taman ini sehingga taman yang indah
ini dapat dimanfaatkan oleh seluruh warga Malang.
Berdasarkan
uraian di atas berdasarkan teori Gutkin dapat disimpulkan bahwa
hubungan manusia dan alam sudah sampai pada tahapan ke empat yaitu
sudah timbul adanya kepedulian pada lingkungan.

Problem makes you stronger
If something not kill you, it will make you stronger. Facing a problem is a must! Why? Because we are human! Every humans have problem, not only you my friend but even the most peaceful people also have something bother them.
Maybe there are some period of our live that we want to erase, or want to back and preventing our problem before it actually happen. But believes me, time machine definitely didn't exist! So if you already have problem and wondering by yourself if you can go back and do it in better way, you will stuck in another problem.
Yeah we humans are stuck with problem. We will never get away from it. It like a tattoo. Stick with our body, but unlike tattoo this thing can't be erased. So there is no way out from it except, FACE IT!
And misteriously, like a living thing, problem also developing! For example when you are a child your problem will be how to get a new toys, or why my friends don't want to play with me?
When you teenager the most common problem is... Why I'm still single? Is he like me? Why he keep flirting on me and give me hope when he have a girlfriend?! And other romance problem that can stir up their mind and forget about what really important for their life.. Like education maybe..
Teens don't really care about it. It isn't because they are stupid but sometimes it just because they are too focusing on the other thing *mostly romance* so they don't have time to think about anything else.
When you adult or maybe already married the next problem is.. How to get a big salary? How to get a luxury cars? Or even how to get the second wife?!
When you get old it doesn't means your problem is decreasing. Problem still hunting you. Old people problem mostly about how to cure aging sickness? It is really common if two old people meeting mostly they will share about medicine, doctors, good drugs to cure their illness.
To put the whole thing in nut shell, We can't get away from problems. It happens, then let it happen. What you need isn't runaway from it but raise your head and straighten your backbones also your shoulder, say it out loud: Problem just come I will never affraid to face you!
