Share My Solidarity, Humanity and Love to Rohingya

Rohingya is a Muslim ethnic minority who are living in Arakan, Myanmar. This name is often heard in  local, national, and even international  due to their country  made them had to leave Myanmar by using a wooden boat to sail across the country. Thousands of boat people stranded in coastal Aceh for months with in very poor conditions last month.

 Communication is a barrier for interaction between people with local people  in everyday life. To establish a good relationship between them, sometimes we use sign language with gestures because they do not understand the meaning of local language.

It my opportunity to teach Rohangya children to learn Indonesia language with fun to reduce their trauma after stay long time on  boats.  I do this thing because of my solidarity, humanity to without of any sense to under estimated for particular country, and the last thing because of they have right to live and breath like us!

MY NEW LIFE BEGINS

January was a very special moment for my life. It begins my new life for sharing happiness, sad and love. I have a family now. Before as a leader for me, my work, but now it has changed as a leader for my family. 

I vow to be a wise man and have responsibility as a husband. A lot of stories, dramas before to decide to start my new life . It ‘s not easy work to pass it. A lot thing to consider. Through reflection and introspection of myself, I have already decided to be a wise man.

New life begins with dream and love living with my wife. Marry means to make my life balance and to fulfill my weakness and strength. Finally  this dream as I wrote in my Port Polio  APLP G12 already come true.

A Decade of Tsunami ( A Reflection toward 2015)

A Decade of Tsunami ( A Reflection toward 2015)

Without realize one decade has been passed. Ten years is not short time to forger what happened. Ten years like one day of  this tragedy. Lost parents, family and friends have dropped to much tears in a long way. A decade of tsunami as a kind of reflection what happened in my home country Aceh. Long conflict before tsunami also made lost all my loved belonging.  Lost schools and houses because they burn.

I remember how many times cease fires but it was failed. Blood flew every where and never stop. There was no sense of humanity anymore. People no g guilty became victims because of their willing for power.

26^th December is a reflection for Aceh to be a better place for living for the future. It must build a strong commitment to build Aceh. There are hikmah or lesson of this tragedy.    I know this is not an easy thing to forget. But I have to keep strong to share my spirit for all friends who have  lost the same thing like me.

Tsunami and long conflict has made me more sensitive surrounding me . It has made me more aware all kind things here.  Tsunami has brought me through his waves  to the world and send peace messages. I am a white dove  to bring peace to the world.

I was it lonely and drop where I sat lonely and there was a small tiny thing rose into my heart for wake up and don’t be afraid for facing this life. Keep moving like a river flow a away to the ocean and never stop.

Thanks Lord for letting me a life and love. Without your blessing I could not survive toward new years.

Thank You Love for Making Me To Be a Strong Man

Ahilla thank you for your news update and I would like to say a big thanks for Emma for your welcome to me.

I do not realize that this month (June) is my time to share my story for you all my friends everywhere around the world. Truly , it is my hard times to pass all my days after my father passed away. Lost him like a very broken heart but I realize it’s God’s will and we cannot stop his destination to the heaven I believe. 

I did remember this story as part of my river flow in port folio. I passed it through slow water, water fall and also big stone. I have to be strong man.

After came back from Hawaii, a lot of work to be done in my work and life. A lot of responsibility to safe all thing. I have to put myself as a watcher at “balcony”. Stay calm for six months to find the best solution from the toxic leadership.

I always maintain good relationship with my students and college. They are very happy when I come back on campus. They think I am a safer from this toxic situation such as full of manipulation, corruption, and dishonest. 

I always give keep spirit come back again to all my students through sharing, laughing, crying and joking. Return them confidence for facing their life.

Feel the fresh air with different place is one of my favorite’s things. Having chance to be a presenter around Indonesia and foreign countries and to be a ambassador of Australian university are my opportunity to involve and enhance my academic, knowledge and my leaderships skill through sharing experience and story.Several cities and countries,  I have visited such Yogyakarta, Semarang, Jakarta, Singapore and Malaysia.

Living around with my friends, students and family who have full of love make me to a stronger man. Never give up for keep smile and transferring my spirit and soul for all of them.

Lost my father, it does not  mean I lost all of thing, it makes me stronger and keep optimism for making my dream come true.

Sorry my friends this month,  my story as a mellow story.

Thank you for your kindly support for making me strong

Love and Hug for you all from Aceh
