personal statement.. (fyuhh)

I just know, it’s very hard to make personal statement to aplply scholarship.. previously I make simple personal statement with daily conversation, but after I consult with my friend who get scholarship in Germany that it must have a good grammar.

after 2 hours, I have finished my personal statement.. THIS IS IT.. hahaha

My interest in telecommunication comes since I was in senior high school, when I like math and physic. I decided to take up telecommunication because it’s an important feature in our daily lives.  Telecommunication has developed tremendously over the last twenty years, and I have keen interest to be a part of them.  I have always deeply interested in following the development of telecommunication.

I studied at Institute Technology of Telkom in Indonesia and choosing a degree in telecommunication engineering from 2006 until 2010. I got cum laude with GPA 3.65. During 3.5 years I got a lot off knowledge about transmission microwave, satellite, and networking. It’s very interesting when my study about telecommunication is used in my work.

I am currently working at Multimedia Nusantara by Telkom Indonesia as a VSAT Engineer. Multimedia Nusantara is popular Satellite Service Company in Indonesia. As a VSAT Engineer, I have responsibilities to installation and maintenance of Satellite service around Indonesia. This job is very fun because I have the opportunity to travel around Indonesia and know variety of cultural and natural resources in Indonesia. This position allowed me to develop my personal communication skills because there are many languages which I have met.

Studying Telecommunication and Information Technology at an advanced level has been very helpful in developing my project for Indonesia. I want to pursue Master Program in Malaysia, because I’m not satisfied with my knowledge that I have today. I think study at developed country such as Malaysia is a challenge and an answer to my curiosity. I am sure that I will face difficult problems, but surely that with hard work I will get through and will result in new experience and knowledge.

Malaysia welcomes aspiring students from all over the world because I believe that a multicultural and multinational campus will enrich students’ experiences in terms of social and cultural diversity. Students have the opportunity to meet people from various cultures and ethnic backgrounds and develop a cross cultural understanding among them.

Once I have gained master, I plan on continue my career in Indonesia and work in PT. XL Axiata, one of the largest cellular players in the Asia Pacific region. The development telecommunication in Indonesia is going rapidly. There are many operators compete to expand their service, May I would be able to contribute for the expansion of this company in the future.

In my spare time I enjoy playing football, fitness, and running, which I find the perfect way of keeping fit. I also play music as a guitar player and perform at least once a month. Pop and Jazz are my favorites genre. I also like reading books; there are about telecommunication and motivation books. One of my favorite books is “The Purpose Driven of Life” by Rick Warren.

 

I want everybody who read it may give me some criticism or suggestion.

thanks a lot
