Anti-corruption campaigns are gainin

g momentum in many countries of Asia. In Pakistan there is the case of Najam Sethi; in the Philippines there is the Sandigan junks graft raps, while in Indonesia the case of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) vs. the National Police is dominating media coverage.

The first time I met her was at The UNEP Tunza  Children and Youth Conference 2011.

This began the establishment of her environment project, Sahabat Alam (Best Friend of Nature),right after she had just graduated from primary school.

Dear Fosca Team and all participants,

Thank you for joining the Science Class Astronomy 2015 class and for making the astronomy session  so interactive! I observed all of you who were joining this class were so active that I really was enjoying to take part of the program.

I loved Pak Wid, Kak Nurdin and  Fathya  while getting a broader understanding of cosmologist and the planets in our solar system, and also learning some interesting facts about them in  "You are Galileo" session. I am so proud, too, with Ghazy (current Chairperson of Fosca), who showed his strong creative approaches. The class was interactive, engaging and not only interesting but practical, wasn't it?

New Semerster, New Journey, New Year

December 2014 is the end of my first semester as a new student of the University of Indonesia (UI). I thought before, any new semester in college would be sort of  stressful ordeal a student could face. It was true to some extent, yet I still found it enjoyable.

I missed, however, the luxury time of being able to write a lot, but at least here are some interesting moments that I managed to take note (and pics) as my milestones
