Speaker

Arief R Ismuharto (INSuBP)

Description

The CTBTO should raise public awareness about nuclear, while ordinary people maintain their fear of the nuclear for war purposes, skeptics pursue their knowledge for peaceful nuclear use. Both sides of the nuclear goal must be very well aware of most people in the world. The limited of nuclear knowledge will make people reject everything about nuclear which will endanger the development of peaceful nuclear use. While we know that a country's decision to support or reject international organizations is strongly influenced by the opinions of its people. With sufficient knowledge about nuclear benefits and threats, the public will play a major role in the development and global network for peaceful nuclear use and active supervision of the potential for nuclear use for war purposes, especially for the nuclear test ban. Cultural differences of the nations sometimes brought the low acceptance of global preference, with the active participation of CTBTO for nuclear education to the member's states peoples, cultural barriers among nations will be eliminated and allow the CTBT to be fully implemented into force. The contribution will be effective when CTBTO work together with a local institution.
