About Me in Koran Tempo

Posted on August 29, 2007 
Filed Under Fatih Syuhud, Indonesia

I used to be interviewed, especially by BBC (Indonesia), everytime they need a commentary on particular events in India. I also write occasionally and published in several print media (mostly Indonesia newspapers). So, I’m not too alien on this stuff. But all aforementioned publication and interviews are on matters that relating to my field of study.

So, I’m a bit ’surprised’ when a journalist from Koran Tempo interviewed me through email a few days back to profile me as a blogger. :)

I’m excited with the interview which’s published today (in .pdf) or you can read it in Budi Putra’s blog here in case you feel more comfortable reading a blog.

I’m glad that what I’m campaigning for all along–ever since I started blogging around six months ago–got recognition, for the first time, in a print media which means the message will echo and spread in much wider horizon.

For Budi, thanks for helping me get the message across.

Actually,i ve been planning to go to jakarta with a fren. can you kindly guide us the ideal way for us to go about? i mean we will arrived in jakarta, end of this march. we badly want to tour bandung, but we didnt have relatives or frens there. Can you help us?thank you. aishah

    Hi Aishah thanks. But i’m not in Jakarta so I cannot help to guide you. My suggestion, you may contact my friend Ong Hock Chuan (theunspunblog.com) in Jakarta, he’s a Malaysian born guy. i’m sure he’ll be more than ready to give you a help.
