Assalamualaikum
Wr.Wb.,
Introduce first, my name is Retta Farah Pramesti from
majoring of accounting Faculty of economic and business Universitas
Padjadjaran. Firstly, I want to give an honorable for the parties especially to
Dauqy Fashion have given to me much of support so I and two other friends who
is Annisa Faradila (Psychologycal Faculty) and Muhammad Ihsan (Communication
Faculty) succesfull went to Chiang Rai Thailand for presentation our paper in 8th-10th
November 2018. The paper entitled “Molistar : Mobile Library and Activity on
The Road : Implementation for Fun Reading in Neglasari Village, Sumedang”, in
honestly this is the first moment and opportunity to me have an experienced for
the international event, Alhamdulillah.
Before arrived there, I had to enjoyed the long trip
from Jatinangor to Chiang Rai. For your information that I go alone to Thailand
because have different schedule with my teams, but it doesnt mean stop my pace
for go there, I am the woman fighter, I can do it! Ok so.. I used the Baraya
Travel from Jatinangor at 10 pm in 7th November 2018 and next a trip approximately
in 7 hours at 7 am used the Lion Air from Jakarta Bangkok and transit one times
in Changi International Airport, Singapore. I got a confused moment before pick
up on the plane, that was cause I go alone to Thailand and for the first time
so I asked with the officer the return ticket, unfortunately I order yet that. That
fault almost made me doesnt go to Thailand. But Alhamdulillah Allah help me for
one by one afraid moment and lastly getting a solution. Ok, next in my story
after that I’ve arrived there, I next the trip to used airplane Bangkok Chiang
Rai with Thai Lion Air, I little bit afraid that just me in that airplane used
the veil only, haha.
Alhamdulillah endure by passing through 2 hours from
Bangkok to Chiang Rai, finally I arrived in Chiang Rai at 7 pm, yeay! But I
still alone and not met yet my team in There. Before, My Friend Annisa have
ordered the rooms in There, exactly on Soundsleep Hostel. I used the Taxi meter
and paid 200 baht for that, so expensive I think. Unfortunately the price
cannot bargained for lower price, it has fixed. At 9 pm I’ve arrived in
Soundsleeps hostel and met Ihsan and Annisa around at 11 pm, Alhamdulillah
respectively.
In 8th November 2018 is the fighting day! we went to
Mae Fah Luang University with the bus price 23 baht and through 1 hours only,
the agenda scheduled today just plenary session and presentation session. We
would to presented our paper at 3 pm, the morning event full for plenary
discussion with the attractive speaker. The speakers are Mr Romyen (vice
president of Mae Fah Luang University), Mr Wasaba (Dorm Director Mae Fah Luang
University), Mr Yunardi (Engineering Lecturing of Unsyiah), Mr Nopadol (Dean of
school Medicine of Mae Fah Luang University) and Mrs Chachaya (Hospitality
Industry Management of Mae Fah Luang University) The speaker told about the
skilled, experienced and ableness itself related with the issues growing in our
society include advancing health and eradicating disease, re-emergering power
abd empowering society, technology and science on the move, the last is
boosting quality and assuring effectivity.I get so much knowledge and new perspective
in generally. Thanks for all speakers!
After plenary session and coffee break done, this is
our time to presented our paper, so in technically presentation divided as a
subtopic we choose, and the comittee divided into the small of group, it becomes
more effective and efficient presentation. I was entered the rooms on B21, in
that rooms just there 6 groups would to presented the paper itself, I remember
that the speakers generally are from 10 countries and in that rooms at least
there are Brazil, Canada, Japan, Bangladesh and mostly Indonesia representative.
You know what I feel after entering that room?The vibes when I into to the room
is so tense and make us apprehensive a lot. But we believe to our self that we
can do delivered as well as we can because we have to practice presentation
together and understands the concept of our ideas. Then the moderators random
us to get the number for presented, and we got number 4 out 6 groups,
bismillah.
After presentation 1-3 over, we are called by
moderator to presented our papaer. We presented with all out and given the best
presentation in our mind. The time is just only 15 minute, include 10 minute
for presentation and 5 minutes question and answer session. After 15 minutes
bygones, the presented by us was over, Alhamdulillah, fluently works... The
thing most remembered by me in that room when the question session, so we not
only got ask from the judges but the other delegates too, and you know that, mostly other delegates is so
knowledgeble because has experienced and average professional or doctor, i
think the question is enough difficult, but finally we can handle because have
a togetherness and effort to calm to give the answer as we know, Alhamdulillah.
In 9th November 2018 is the second day, we through
the academic writing with Ms Era from Mae Fah Luang University, we studied many
of rules in writing especially in scientific paper, I got much the new
knowledge again for the good manners in scientific writing principle. After
that at 10 am until 4 pm we are next to presentation session and cause we
already have to presentation, we can enter the rooms for watched the other
delegates for other country, accidentally there is one team delegate from Unpad
too, so yesterday when we presented they support us, and know we support them
too, response the kindness. I really interested with all topic that other
delegates bought, include idea, research and many more. In short story, the
presentation session has over.
The night comes and we are go to Chiang Rai Night
Bazzar to bought a special a gift back from a trip for family, friends and
others in Indonesia. In addition there is a festival night, it’s so fabulous
that some foods and the culture provided by Thailand student and Indonesia too.
I feeling a lot of foods form thailand such as Tom Yam, Pad Thai, Manggo Sticky
Rice, Thai tea and etc....
The last day for us, In 10th November 2018, we are
go to trip to White Temple. As we know that Thailand country is the biggest umat
Budhanism region in the world, so in this city of Chiang Rai especially more
place related with Budhanism prayers, such as a temple. Special look in that
place is the building color full of white, and many more the history for the rooms are there. So, I’m
fascinating can go there with other delegates.
Alhamdulillah, the event has finished, conference
agenda in Chiang Rai Thailand pass over approximately. I’m go back to Indonesia
in 10th November 2018 at 1 am, use the grab go to Chiang rai airport, and later
on use airplane Chiang Rai Bangkok and the last Bangkok Jakarta and transit in
Singapore before. I litte bit dissapointed that in the last airplane delayed so
long for 2 hours...But its no problem, the time can used for break a lots.
The announcement of best oral persentation comes,
since start I dont to want achieve that because I think that with followed this
event is already good and prestigious for me, eventough I give the best what I
can. And right, we dont get the appreciation, mostly who can the ranks is the
old people who has experienced and studying for scientist, academic and
professional. BUT Alhamdulillah our paper review by judge goods, and have an
opportunity to publication in journal ISBN.
The last but not least, I want to thankfull a lot
for everyone who help me. I’m so grateful to God and all parties have to help a
lot from starting I looking for some support until now I comeback to Indonesia.
Without you all, nothing happen to me right now. Thanks a lot for all the
kindness, May Allah bless and answer what the thing of it eventhough as little
you do. Enough my realize story for conference AASIC in Thailand, the purpose
and message for this trip is Dont look what you are now, but evidence as hard
as you can that you can realize your dreams come true and not imaginating only,
Allah behind you, Allah support you. Believe it.
