In 2007, university student community who concern with renewable energy, KAMASE from Physics Engineering Department, Faculty of Engineering Gadjah Mada University (UGM) cooperated with Curtin University, Australia to follow Mondialogo Engineering Award (MEA). On this international competition, KAMASE and Curtin University been a winner with the theme of development of solar water pumping  system in remote areas to help community who had clean water supply problem. The region chosen is Banyumeneng I hamlet, Giriharjo village, Panggang district, Gunungkidul Regency, Yogyakarta. They received 20.000 Euros grant. From that victory, solar water pumping system program in Banyumeneng was started and implemented with student community services program called KKN-PPM UGM.

Banyumeneng I hamlet was a region with severely limited acces to water supply. Its landscape consists of karst structure which can not reserve water. Water scarcity problem always exist during dry season and local community have to struggle to collect water by walking about 3,2 km.day or spending at least Rp 150.000,00/month to buy water, while their income are just around Rp 400.000,00/month in average. These were amongst the cause that prevented local residence never escaped from proverty.

                Development of Solar Water Pumping System is done throug three of step; it are first step in 2008, second step in 2009, and final step in 2010.

First step included preparation of Detailed Engineering Design (DED) for Solar Water Pumping System and topographic mapping on region close to water source. The DED will used in system construction. Beside that, the first step also included program socialization for the local residence. This program focused on the establishment of independent water management organization, OPAKg, in Giriharjo Village, Panggang District.

The second step on the development Solar water Pumping System in Panggang District have two main program it are system installation and social installation. System installation involve solar arrays, pump housing, piping, wiring, and main reservoir installation. Students of UGM are mutual help with local community in construction of solar water pumping system. In social installation program, training were conducted in order to prepare local residence to actively involve on this program on installation, maintenance and environmental conservation. Economic issues and environmental conservation are important to maintain sustainability of water supply system.

The following year, July-August 2010, students of UGM continue develop the solar water pumping system through a program of student community services-comuunity empowerment learning (KKN-PPM UGM). This final step have three programs are system troubleshooting, OPAKg’s organizational network expansions, and improvement on OPAKg’s maanagement. Student also help OPAKg’s to build network with PAMASKARTA (Yogyakarta Potable water association) in order to improve OPAKg’s as an independent organization and continously developed. With the system installation, time and money previosly spent on water could be used for more productive ways. For academic purpose, this site is an ideal location for research, these writing, or as a field laboratory.

Bersyukur, dan Percaya bahwa Allah Maha Mengetahui dan Maha Adil

Perjalanan tiap manusia sudah ditentukan berdasarkan kekuatan dan garis nasibnya. Memang ada hadist yang mengatakan bahwa, Allah tidak akan mengubah nasib suatu kaum, kecuali kaum itu berusaha untuk mengubah nasibnya sendiri. Sangat benar, karena sungguh tidak mungkin suatu perubahan itu terjadi jika kita hanya diam dan berpangku tangan.

Suatu kegelisahan yang wajar dialami oleh setiap individu adalah ketika ia mulai beranjak dari satu fase kehidupan ke fase berikutnya, sebagai contoh; dari bayi ke anak-anak, dari anak-anak ke masa remaa, dari SMA ke kuliah, dari kuliah ke dunia kerja, dan seterusnya. Suatu pelajaran yang sangat penting dalam hidup ini adalah bagaimana kita bisa mengambil keputusan tentang tentang apa yang kita jalani dalam hidup ini dan menjalaninya dengan penuh semangat bahwa apa yang kita pilih itu adalah yang terbaik buat kita dan memang sudah digariskan untuk kita.
Terkadang sangat sulit, karena di tengah jalan, banyak sekali sisi kanan kiri yang akan menggoyahkan pendirian kita.
Tapi satu hal yang harus kita ingat bahwa, ada satu kekuatan di atas sana yang mengatur semua ini.
Apapun yang kita lakukan, tidak pernah lepas dari kehendakNya. Jadi yakinlah, apa yang kita lakukan, apa yang kita peroleh ,memang terbaik buat kita. Karena Allah Maha tahu apa yang kita butuhkan, bukan apa yang kita inginkan.

Sedikit cerita dari Sang Ibu, ketika diri ini sedang gelisah dengan nasib dan tujuan kedepan setelah lulus kuliah S2. Diri ini selalu bingung dengan pekerjaan apa yang nantinya akan dijalani. Di satu sisi, sebagai anak sulung, tentu tanggung jawab untuk membantu adik-adik dan keluarga sangatlahh besar, dan pekerjaan nantinya yang diharapkan adalah pekerjaan yang mampu menghasilkan penghasilan yang lebih dari cukup. Tapi di satu sisi, sebagai perempuan, dan keiginan menjadi dosen mulai goyah, karena semua tahu bahwa profesi dosen tidak selalu begitu menjanjikan jika dibandingkan dengan bekerja di suatu perusahaan multinasional.
Lalu, bagaiaman nantinya?
Padahal, keputusan menjalani S2 sudah diambil.

Pesan dari Ibu tercinta sangat bijak:
"jalani apa yang ada,tidak usah memikirkan bekerja apa yang bagaimana, nanti semua sudah ada yang mengatur. Rezeki orang tidak ada yang tahu. Sekarang yang terpenting adalah bagaimana bisa mendapatkan prestasi yang bagus di kuliah. Nanti, pintu rezeki akan dibuka lebar-lebar ketika sudah waktunya dibuka. Yakinlah, bahwa semua ini sudah diatur oleh Sang Khaliq. Tak usah bimbang dan ragu, karena semua itu hanya akan membuat hati kita tidak pernah tenang dan bersyukur.,"

Terima kasih ibu, kau-lah Malaikat yang diturunkan oleh Allah, yang selalu memberikan ketenangan dan ketentraman hati ini.
Meski mulut ini tak pernah berucap, batinmu selalu merasakan kegelisahan hati anakmu.,
Ibu...Ibu..Ibu...Love u.,:)

*pelajaran mensyukuri hidup*.

PERCAYA, BAHWA ALLAH MAHA MENGETAHUI DAN MAHA ADIL..,
