Glowing Opportunities

After SEAMOLEC expert team's stay here in Southern Philippines for around three months, I have learned some more new and exciting ideas. I've learned that friendships (even brotherhood) between Indonesians and Filipinos are based on sincere foundations.

I've learned that Indonesians thru SEAMEO SEAMOLEC, with the capacities that they have, are genuinely ready to help their Filipino brothers and sisters in IT capability building.

I've learned that Indonesians and Filipinos are more prepared to embrace 2015 ASEAN Community, if we just allow it.

I've learned that Indonesian Consulate can, should, and must work side-by-side brilliantly with SEAMOLEC in order to accomplish our "business of hope" .

I've learned that people's education is a strategic element to make a country prosperous.

I've learned that through an excellent teamwork, you can accomplish any kind of difficult tasks burdened to your shoulders.

I've learned much more precious things than what I expected to get, before my 4 SEAMOLEC friends first set their feet on the land of Mindanao.

You have been willing to become our diplomacy and foreign policy instrument, so people-to-people relations of the two countries are enhanced. You have sent a massage that Indonesia is always there for her friend.

You have showed and promoted, unlike politicians that favor on give-and-take, that there is goodness in all of us.

It is my humble hope, that we could send a strong note to Indonesia, how beautiful it would be if we can just combine nationalism, regionalism, and internationalism. After all, it's nothing but all for the sake of our red-and-white flag.

Therefore, from every beat of our hearts, maraming salamat to you. You have become part of the Indonesian Consulate. Take care and have a nice interesting journey lies ahead four of you. We wish you the best for your study and work...

Balik-balik ha....
