"Jika Anda ingin mendirikan pemakaman Anda sendiri" di Britania, kata Alison Killing, "itu bisa." Dia berpikir banyak tentang di mana kita meninggal dan dikuburkan -- dan dalam ceramah ini, arsitek dan salah satu TED Fellow ini memaparkan perspektif ekonomi dan sosial yang membuka mata tentang satu fitur kota kita yang terlupakan: pemakaman. Dia menjelaskan secara spesifik tentang hukum di Britania, termasuk peraturan kontradiktif yang menarik dan terkadang lucu tentang di mana Anda bisa dikuburkan.

Now, this is a real proposition,

00:54
but my interest in it is quite different.
11
42555
2762
namun saya punya ketertarikan yang lain.
00:57
I'm an architect and urban designer,
12
45713
2042
Saya adalah arsitek dan ahli tata kota,
00:59
and for the past year and a half,
13
47779
1591
sudah satu setengah tahun ini,
01:01
I've been looking at approaches
to death and dying
to death and dying
14
49394
3000
saya meneliti fenomena kematian,
01:04
and at how they've shaped our cities
and the buildings within them.
and the buildings within them.
15
52418
3311
dan bagaimana pengaruhnya pada kota
dan bangunan yang ada di dalamnya.
dan bangunan yang ada di dalamnya.
01:08
So in the summer,
I did my first exhibition
I did my first exhibition
16
56515
3160
Musim panas kemarin,
saya menggelar pameran pertama
saya menggelar pameran pertama
tentang fenomena kematian
dan arsitektur di kota Venice,
dan arsitektur di kota Venice,
01:11
on death and architecture in Venice,
17
59699
2516
01:14
and it was called "Death in Venice."
18
62239
1880
berjudul "Kematian di Venice."
01:16
And because death is a subject
19
64563
2001
Karena kematian adalah subyek
01:18
that many of us find quite
uncomfortable to talk about,
uncomfortable to talk about,
20
66588
3057
yang dianggap
kurang nyaman untuk dibicarakan,
kurang nyaman untuk dibicarakan,
01:21
the exhibition was designed
to be quite playful,
to be quite playful,
21
69669
2325
pameran tersebut
didesain dengan rasa humor,
didesain dengan rasa humor,
01:24
so that people would
literally engage with it.
literally engage with it.
22
72018
2499
agar masyarakat tertarik.
01:26
So one of our exhibits
was an interactive map of London
was an interactive map of London
23
74882
3545
Salah satu yang dipamerkan
adalah peta interaktif London
adalah peta interaktif London
01:30
which showed just how much
of the real estate in the city
of the real estate in the city
24
78451
3018
yang menunjukkan
seberapa banyak lahan properti
seberapa banyak lahan properti
yang dialokasikan
untuk kematian di kota itu.
untuk kematian di kota itu.
01:33
is given over to death.
25
81493
1950
01:35
As you wave your hand across the map,
26
83467
2182
Jika melambaikan tangan di atas peta,
01:37
the name of the piece of real estate --
the building or the cemetery --
the building or the cemetery --
27
85673
3505
nama dari lahan properti --
baik bangunan atau pemakaman --
baik bangunan atau pemakaman --
akan muncul.
01:41
is revealed.
28
89202
1150
01:42
And those white shapes that you can see,
29
90733
2740
Figur yang berwarna putih itu,
01:45
they're all of the hospitals and hospices
30
93497
2909
adalah rumah sakit dan klinik,
01:48
and mortuaries and cemeteries in the city.
31
96430
2731
kamar mayat dan pemakaman di kota itu.
01:51
In fact, the majority are cemeteries.
32
99185
2062
Bahkan mayoritas adalah pemakaman.
01:53
We wanted to show that, even though
death and burial are things
death and burial are things
33
101652
4702
Kami ingin menunjukkan
walau kematian dan pemakaman
walau kematian dan pemakaman
adalah hal-hal
yang mungkin tak terpikirkan,
yang mungkin tak terpikirkan,
01:58
that we might not think about,
34
106378
1491
01:59
they're all around us, and they're
important parts of our cities.
important parts of our cities.
35
107893
3530
semua ada di sekeliling kita
dan menjadi bagian penting kota kita.
dan menjadi bagian penting kota kita.
02:04
So about half a million people
die in the UK each year,
die in the UK each year,
36
112035
4460
Sekitar setengah juta orang
meninggal di Britania setiap tahun,
meninggal di Britania setiap tahun,
02:08
and of those, around a quarter
will want to be buried.
will want to be buried.
37
116519
3029
dan sekitar seperempatnya
ingin dikuburkan.
ingin dikuburkan.
02:11
But the UK, like many
Western European countries,
Western European countries,
38
119572
3940
Namun, seperti kebanyakan
negara-negara Eropa Barat,
negara-negara Eropa Barat,
Britania mulai kehabisan lahan pemakaman,
02:15
is running out of burial space,
39
123536
1675
02:17
especially in the major cities.
40
125235
1880
terutama di kota-kota besar.
02:19
And the Greater London Authority
has been aware of this for a while,
has been aware of this for a while,
41
127670
3516
Pemerintah Kota London
sudah lama menyadari hal ini,
sudah lama menyadari hal ini,
02:23
and the main causes are population growth,
42
131210
3468
dan penyebab utamanya
adalah pertumbuhan penduduk,
adalah pertumbuhan penduduk,
02:26
the fact that existing
cemeteries are almost full.
cemeteries are almost full.
43
134702
2841
yang mengakibatkan penuhnya pemakaman.
02:29
There's a custom in the UK that graves
are considered to be occupied forever,
are considered to be occupied forever,
44
137567
4307
Menurut tradisi di Britania,
pemakaman umumnya dipakai permanen,
pemakaman umumnya dipakai permanen,
02:33
and there's also development pressure --
people want to use that same land
people want to use that same land
45
141898
3727
namun ada juga desakan pembangunan --
masyarakat ingin menggunakan
masyarakat ingin menggunakan
02:37
to build houses or offices or shops.
46
145649
3559
lahan yang sama untuk perumahan,
perkantoran, atau pertokoan.
perkantoran, atau pertokoan.
02:41
So they came up with a few solutions.
47
149896
1801
Maka, dibuatlah beberapa solusi.
02:43
They were like, well, maybe we can
reuse those graves after 50 years.
reuse those graves after 50 years.
48
151721
4043
Mungkin setelah 50 tahun,
pemakaman tersebut bisa didaur ulang.
pemakaman tersebut bisa didaur ulang.
02:47
Or maybe we can bury people,
like, four deep,
like, four deep,
49
155788
2313
Atau membuat kuburan 4 susun ke bawah,
02:50
so that four people can be buried
in the same plot,
in the same plot,
50
158125
2988
sehingga empat jenazah
bisa dikuburkan di lahan yang sama,
bisa dikuburkan di lahan yang sama,
02:53
and we can make more efficient use
of the land that way,
of the land that way,
51
161137
2643
dengan begitu
penggunaan lahan lebih efisien,
penggunaan lahan lebih efisien,
02:55
and in that way, hopefully London
will still have space to bury people
will still have space to bury people
52
163804
3340
dan juga, agar London
punya lahan yang cukup
punya lahan yang cukup
untuk pemakaman di masa mendatang.
02:59
in the near future.
53
167168
1151
03:01
But, traditionally, cemeteries
haven't been taken care of
haven't been taken care of
54
169106
2662
Namun selama ini, pemakaman tidak dikelola
03:03
by the local authority.
55
171792
1740
oleh pemerintah setempat.
03:05
In fact, the surprising thing is that
there's no legal obligation
there's no legal obligation
56
173556
3366
Bahkan, tidak ada kewajiban hukum
untuk menyediakan lahan pemakaman
untuk menyediakan lahan pemakaman
03:08
on anyone in the UK
to provide burial space.
to provide burial space.
57
176946
3029
yang dibebankan
pada siapa pun di Britania.
pada siapa pun di Britania.
03:12
Traditionally, it's been done
by private and religious organizations,
by private and religious organizations,
58
180499
4783
Biasanya, itu ditanggung
oleh organisasi swasta dan keagamaan,
oleh organisasi swasta dan keagamaan,
03:17
like churches and mosques and synagogues.
59
185306
2811
seperti gereja, masjid, dan sinagoge.
03:20
But there's also occasionally
been a for-profit group
been a for-profit group
60
188510
3925
Namun terkadang ada juga kelompok usaha
03:24
who has wanted to get in on the act.
61
192459
2017
yang juga ingin terlibat.
03:26
And, you know, they look at
the small size of a burial plot
the small size of a burial plot
62
194500
3505
Berdasarkan kecilnya lahan pemakaman,
03:30
and that high cost,
63
198029
1668
dan tingginya harga,
03:31
and it looks like there's
serious money to be made.
serious money to be made.
64
199721
2492
sepertinya keuntungan
yang bisa diraup cukup besar.
yang bisa diraup cukup besar.
03:34
So, actually, if you want to go out
and start your own cemetery,
and start your own cemetery,
65
202580
3714
Sebenarnya, jika ingin
mendirikan pemakaman sendiri,
mendirikan pemakaman sendiri,
03:38
you kind of can.
66
206318
1423
juga bisa.
03:39
There was this couple in South Wales,
67
207765
2136
Ada satu pasangan di Wales Selatan,
03:41
and they had a farmhouse
and a load of fields next to it,
and a load of fields next to it,
68
209925
3236
yang mempunyai rumah
dengan lahan pertanian dan mereka ingin
dengan lahan pertanian dan mereka ingin
03:45
and they wanted to develop the land.
69
213185
2131
mengembangkan lahan tersebut.
03:47
They had a load of ideas.
70
215340
1401
Mereka punya banyak ide.
03:48
They first thought about making
a caravan park,
a caravan park,
71
216765
3114
Pada awalnya mereka ingin
membangun taman karavan,
membangun taman karavan,
03:51
but the council said no.
72
219903
1714
namun pemerintah tidak menyetujui.
03:53
And then they wanted to make a fish farm
73
221641
1968
Lalu, ingin membuat lahan perikanan,
03:55
and again the council said no.
74
223633
1721
namun lagi-lagi tidak disetujui.
03:57
Then they hit on the idea
of making a cemetery
of making a cemetery
75
225751
2671
Lalu mereka mempunyai ide
untuk membangun pemakaman,
untuk membangun pemakaman,
04:00
and they calculated that by doing this,
76
228446
2056
dan setelah diperhitungkan,
04:02
they could increase
the value of their land
the value of their land
77
230526
2517
nilai lahan itu bisa dinaikkan,
04:05
from about 95,000 pounds
to over one million pounds.
to over one million pounds.
78
233067
4729
dari sekitar 95 ribu poundsterling
menjadi 1 juta poundsterling lebih.
menjadi 1 juta poundsterling lebih.
04:10
But just to come back to this idea
of making profit from cemeteries,
of making profit from cemeteries,
79
238802
4759
Ide meraup keuntungan dari pemakaman
04:15
like, it's kind of ludicrous, right?
80
243585
2070
terdengar menggiurkan, bukan?
04:18
The thing is that the high cost
of those burial plots
of those burial plots
81
246267
3513
Sesungguhnya, tingginya
harga lahan pemakaman tersebut
harga lahan pemakaman tersebut
04:21
is actually very misleading.
82
249804
2116
sangatlah menipu.
04:23
They look like they're expensive,
83
251944
1787
Kelihatannya harganya mahal,
04:25
but that cost reflects the fact that
you need to maintain the burial plot --
you need to maintain the burial plot --
84
253755
4202
namun kenyataannya biaya perawatan
lahan pemakaman memang tinggi --
lahan pemakaman memang tinggi --
04:29
like, someone has to cut the grass
for the next 50 years.
for the next 50 years.
85
257981
3308
misalnya, untuk memotong
rumput selama 50 tahun.
rumput selama 50 tahun.
04:33
That means it's very difficult
to make money from cemeteries.
to make money from cemeteries.
86
261313
2897
Jadi, memang susah mendapat
keuntungan dari pemakaman.
keuntungan dari pemakaman.
04:36
And it's the reason that normally
they're run by the council
they're run by the council
87
264234
2825
Karena itu biasanya
pemakaman dikelola pemerintah,
pemakaman dikelola pemerintah,
04:39
or by a not-for-profit group.
88
267083
1996
atau kelompok nirlaba.
04:41
But anyway, the council granted
these people permission,
these people permission,
89
269103
2651
Pemerintah akhirnya memberikan
izin pada pasangan ini,
izin pada pasangan ini,
04:43
and they're now trying
to build their cemetery.
to build their cemetery.
90
271778
2451
dan sekarang proses pembangunan
sedang berlangsung.
sedang berlangsung.
04:46
So just to explain to you
kind of how this works:
kind of how this works:
91
274253
3320
Penjelasannya kira-kira begini:
Jika saya ingin
membangun sesuatu di Britania,
membangun sesuatu di Britania,
04:49
If I want to build something in the UK,
92
277597
2057
04:51
like a cemetery for example,
93
279678
2192
misalnya pemakaman,
04:53
then I have to apply
for planning permission first.
for planning permission first.
94
281894
2974
maka saya harus mendaftarkan
izin rencana membangun dahulu.
izin rencana membangun dahulu.
04:56
So if I want to build a new
office building for a client
office building for a client
95
284892
4210
Jika saya ingin membangun
gedung perkantoran untuk seorang klien,
gedung perkantoran untuk seorang klien,
05:01
or if I want to extend my home
96
289126
2254
atau jika ingin memperbesar rumah,
05:03
or, you know, if I have a shop
and I want to convert it into an office,
and I want to convert it into an office,
97
291404
3769
atau mengubah toko menjadi perkantoran,
saya harus menggambar banyak rancangan,
05:07
I have to do a load of drawings,
98
295197
1531
05:08
and I submit them
to the council for permission.
to the council for permission.
99
296752
2436
lalu diajukan
ke pemerintah untuk perizinan.
ke pemerintah untuk perizinan.
05:11
And they'll look at things like
how it fits in the surroundings.
how it fits in the surroundings.
100
299212
3957
Beberapa hal, seperti kecocokannya
dengan area sekitar akan ditinjau.
dengan area sekitar akan ditinjau.
05:15
So they'll look at what it looks like.
101
303193
2032
Bentuknya akan dipertimbangkan.
05:17
But they'll also think about things
like what impact is it going to have
like what impact is it going to have
102
305249
3596
Termasuk juga dampak yang akan ditimbulkan
05:20
on the local environment?
103
308869
1475
pada lingkungan sekitar.
05:22
And they'll be thinking about things like,
104
310368
2040
Pertimbangan lain adalah,
05:24
is this thing going to cause pollution
105
312432
1841
apakah ini akan menambah polusi,
05:26
or is there going to be a lot of traffic
106
314297
1928
atau menambah kemacetan
05:28
that wants to go to this thing
that I've built?
that I've built?
107
316249
2333
di sekitar bangunan yang akan didirikan?
Dampak positifnya juga ditinjau.
05:30
But also good things.
108
318606
1380
Apakah fasilitas yang berguna
bagi masyarakat setempat,
bagi masyarakat setempat,
05:32
Is it going to add local services
like shops to the neighborhood
like shops to the neighborhood
109
320010
3317
seperti toko, akan dibangun?
05:35
that local people would like to use?
110
323351
2062
05:38
And they'll weigh up the advantages
and the disadvantages
and the disadvantages
111
326183
2694
Keuntungan dan kerugiannya
akan dipertimbangkan,
akan dipertimbangkan,
05:40
and they'll make a decision.
112
328901
1436
lalu keputusan dibuat.
05:42
So that's how it works if I want
to build a large cemetery.
to build a large cemetery.
113
330908
3972
Begitulah gambarannya jika saya ingin
membangun sebuah pemakaman besar.
membangun sebuah pemakaman besar.
05:47
But what if I've got a piece of land
114
335356
1994
Namun bagaimana jika saya punya lahan,
05:49
and I just want to bury
a few people, like five or six?
a few people, like five or six?
115
337374
3318
yang hanya ingin
digunakan untuk 5 atau 6 orang?
digunakan untuk 5 atau 6 orang?
05:53
Well, then -- actually, I don't need
permission from anyone!
permission from anyone!
116
341533
3619
Maka sebenarnya
saya tidak perlu izin dari siapa pun!
saya tidak perlu izin dari siapa pun!
05:57
There's actually almost no regulation
in the UK around burial,
in the UK around burial,
117
345850
4366
Sebetulnya tidak ada peraturan
mengenai penguburan di Britania,
mengenai penguburan di Britania,
06:02
and the little bit that there is,
is about not polluting water courses,
is about not polluting water courses,
118
350240
3643
yang ada hanyalah himbauan
untuk tidak mengotori sumber air,
untuk tidak mengotori sumber air,
06:05
like not polluting rivers or groundwater.
119
353907
2610
seperti sungai atau air tanah.
06:08
So actually, if you want to go
and make your own mini-cemetery,
and make your own mini-cemetery,
120
356962
3024
Maka apabila Anda ingin
membangun pemakaman pribadi,
membangun pemakaman pribadi,
06:12
then you can.
121
360010
1295
itu bisa.
06:13
But I mean, like -- really,
who does this? Right?
who does this? Right?
122
361329
3428
Tapi, siapa yang mau melakukannya?
06:18
Well, if you're an aristocratic family
and you have a large estate,
and you have a large estate,
123
366011
3618
Jika Anda berasal dari keluarga bangsawan
yang punya lahan luas,
yang punya lahan luas,
06:21
then there's a chance that you'll
have a mausoleum on it,
have a mausoleum on it,
124
369653
2683
maka kemungkinan ada makam di dalamnya
06:24
and you'll bury your family there.
125
372360
1809
untuk menguburkan kerabat Anda.
06:26
But the really weird thing
126
374708
2159
Namun anehnya,
06:28
is that you don't need to have
a piece of land of a certain size
a piece of land of a certain size
127
376891
3369
tidak perlu memiliki
lahan berukuran khusus
lahan berukuran khusus
06:32
before you're allowed
to start burying people on it.
to start burying people on it.
128
380284
2602
jika hendak menguburkan seseorang.
06:34
And so that means that, technically,
129
382910
1945
Yang artinya termasuk
06:36
this applies to, like, the back garden
of your house in the suburbs.
of your house in the suburbs.
130
384879
3689
taman belakang rumah Anda
yang ada di pelosok.
yang ada di pelosok.
06:40
(Laughter)
131
388592
1329
(Tertawa)
06:42
So what if you wanted
to try this yourself at home?
to try this yourself at home?
132
390370
4024
Bagaimana jika Anda
ingin mencoba ini sendiri di rumah?
ingin mencoba ini sendiri di rumah?
06:46
Well, there's a few councils
that have guidance on their website
that have guidance on their website
133
394418
4048
Ada petunjuk yang tercantum
di laman beberapa institusi
di laman beberapa institusi
yang bisa membantu Anda.
06:50
which can help you.
134
398490
1387
06:51
So, the first thing that they tell you
135
399901
2094
Petunjuk pertama yaitu
06:54
is that you need to have a certificate
of burial before you can go ahead --
of burial before you can go ahead --
136
402019
3736
Anda harus punya sertifikat pemakaman --
dilarang membunuh dan menguburnya
di halaman begitu saja.
di halaman begitu saja.
06:57
you're not allowed to just murder people
and put them under the patio.
and put them under the patio.
137
405779
3348
07:01
(Laughter)
138
409151
2000
(Tertawa)
07:04
They also tell you that you need to keep
a record of where the grave is.
a record of where the grave is.
139
412253
3803
Letak makamnya juga harus dicatat.
07:08
But that's pretty much it
for formal requirements.
for formal requirements.
140
416080
2633
Syarat umumnya cuma itu.
07:10
Now, they do warn you that
your neighbors might not like this,
your neighbors might not like this,
141
418737
3002
Ada peringatan bahwa tetangga
mungkin tidak menyukainya,
mungkin tidak menyukainya,
07:13
but, legally speaking, there's almost
nothing that they can do about it.
nothing that they can do about it.
142
421763
3903
namun secara hukum,
mereka tidak bisa berbuat apa pun.
mereka tidak bisa berbuat apa pun.
07:17
And just in case any of you
still had that profit idea in your mind
still had that profit idea in your mind
143
425690
5166
Andai masih ada pemikiran
tentang keuntungan
tentang keuntungan
07:22
about how much those burial plots cost
144
430880
2261
dari harga lahan pemakaman,
07:25
and how much money
you might be able to make,
you might be able to make,
145
433165
2348
dan berapa banyak
keuntungan yang bisa diraup,
keuntungan yang bisa diraup,
07:27
they also warn that it might cause
the value of your house
the value of your house
146
435537
2746
juga perlu diketahui
bahwa nilai rumah Anda
bahwa nilai rumah Anda
07:30
to drop by 20 percent.
147
438307
1730
bisa turun sebanyak 20%.
07:32
Although, actually, it's more likely
148
440515
1747
Atau lebih tepatnya,
07:34
that no one will want to buy
your house at all after that.
your house at all after that.
149
442286
2968
nantinya tidak ada orang
yang ingin membeli rumah Anda.
yang ingin membeli rumah Anda.
07:38
So what I find fascinating about this
150
446341
2559
Menurut saya yang menarik adalah
07:40
is the fact that it kind of sums up
many of our attitudes towards death.
many of our attitudes towards death.
151
448924
4665
bagaimana hal ini mencerminkan
cara pandang kita terhadap kematian.
cara pandang kita terhadap kematian.
07:46
In the UK, and I think that the figures
across Europe are probably similar,
across Europe are probably similar,
152
454280
4416
Di Britania dan mungkin
data di Eropa juga hampir sama,
data di Eropa juga hampir sama,
07:50
only about 30 percent of people
have ever talked to anyone
have ever talked to anyone
153
458720
3111
hanya sekitar 30% orang
yang pernah menyampaikan
yang pernah menyampaikan
07:53
about their wishes around death,
154
461855
1692
keinginan mereka seputar kematian,
bahkan pada yang berusia di atas 75 tahun,
07:55
and even for people over 75,
155
463571
1910
07:57
only 45 percent of people
have ever talked about this.
have ever talked about this.
156
465505
3586
hanya 45% yang membicarakannya.
08:01
And the reasons that
people give ... you know,
people give ... you know,
157
469464
2675
Alasannya karena
08:04
they think that their death is far off
158
472163
1821
kematian dianggap masih lama,
08:06
or they think that they're going
to make people uncomfortable
to make people uncomfortable
159
474008
2877
atau mereka takut
orang akan merasa tidak nyaman,
orang akan merasa tidak nyaman,
08:08
by talking about it.
160
476909
1386
saat membicarakannya.
08:10
And you know, to a certain extent,
161
478319
1755
Memang, ada orang-orang
08:12
there are other people out there
who are taking care of things for us.
who are taking care of things for us.
162
480098
3638
yang mengerjakan hal ini untuk kita.
08:15
The government has all this regulation
and bureaucracy around things
and bureaucracy around things
163
483760
3681
Pemerintah punya peraturan
dan birokrasi tentang hal-hal,
dan birokrasi tentang hal-hal,
08:19
like burying a death, for example,
164
487465
2233
seperti penguburan jenazah,
08:21
and there's people like funeral directors
165
489722
1969
dan ada seorang kepala pemakaman
yang bekerja mengabdikan waktu
untuk persoalan ini.
untuk persoalan ini.
08:23
who devote their entire
working lives to this issue.
working lives to this issue.
166
491715
2596
08:26
But when it comes to our cities
167
494335
1506
Jika menyangkut kota kita,
08:27
and thinking about how
death fits in our cities,
death fits in our cities,
168
495865
3042
dan kematian yang terjadi,
08:30
there's much less regulation
and design and thought
and design and thought
169
498931
4049
betapa sedikit peraturan,
rancangan, dan pemikiran
rancangan, dan pemikiran
dibandingkan bayangkan kita.
08:35
than we might imagine.
170
503004
1316
08:36
So we're not thinking about this,
171
504344
2214
Jadi, kita tidak memikirkannya,
08:38
but all of the people we imagine
are thinking about it --
are thinking about it --
172
506582
2900
namun orang-orang
yang mungkin memikirkannya,
yang mungkin memikirkannya,
08:41
they're not taking care of it either.
173
509506
2045
mereka juga tidak mengurusnya.
08:43
Thank you.
174
511575
1158
Terima kasih.

Why you should listen
Alison Killing is an architect and urban designer working to engage people with their built environment, via design of buildings and urban strategies, film making, exhibitions and events. She explores the relationship between death and modern architecture, looking at how cities are rebuilt after disaster.
Recent projects include Death in the City (and its first iteration, Death in Venice, which was shown as an independent event during the opening week of the Venice Architecture Biennale), a touring exhibition about death and modern architecture; work with the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies on better rebuilding after disaster and how to integrate relevant urban design tools into humanitarian response; and a study of financial models for arts and community projects temporarily using vacant buildings to help these projects become self-sustaining.
