Encryption security features that protect users of digital applications is becoming a hot topic. WhatsApp has announced the latest encryption end to end on their services that protect the privacy of user data. Ensuring end to end encryption of user data can not be arbitrarily intercepted by unauthorized parties.

Before WhatsApp, messaging services are already popular with encryption is the BlackBerry Messenger (BBM). Even the BBM encryption known as the safest in the world.

Observers digital forensics Indonesia, Alam said Ruby encryption systems work WhatsApp and BBM is theoretically more or less the same. Both apply encryption end to end.

"A problem is, (whether) each party withholding or not publish," said the expert to VIVA.co.id was born in Jakarta, on Thursday evening, April 7, 2016.

Ruby explains, for security work on the fuel system, known BlackBerry legally storing user data to six months back. Well, when required by law enforcement, the BlackBerry experience so far always been able to work together.

According to Ruby, in terms of cooperation with law enforcement, BlackBerry is cooperative in revealing conversations of data users. To that end, Ruby argued, WhatsApp also can imitate BlackBerry.

"First, he (WhatsApp) end-to-end encryption, for users in general. But if law enforcement is requested, WhatsApp can still provide data to law enforcement, according to the procedure of origin, to be legal, as it was," he said.

According to BlackBerry center ever dialogue with, a company from Waterloo, Ontario, Canada that reveal they will provide user data to law enforcement anywhere in the world in need. Of note, the data request in accordance with the procedures and rules applicable.

Ruby said in his confession, Canadian law enforcement have become accustomed to the data on fuel. The process of opening the data that it takes several days.

"They are accustomed to opening the data. Even just need three to four days, because they were quite ordinary, every day asking for the data," he said.

Meanwhile, regarding access to encryption, WhatsApp has given a sign that no one can tap or open a data user communication history.

Founder of WhatsApp, Jan Koum and Brian Acton in an announcement on the company's blog wrote, the service carries encrypted on WhatsApp simple idea. That user sends a message, and only certain people can read a personal message or group conversations that have been submitted. Even WhatsApp also asserted could not read its message.

"No one can see the message, not the cyber criminals and not the hacker. Also not oppressive regime, even us as well," they wrote.

Determination 1st Shawwal Differences Must be addressed Positive

By: Syaifuddin Iqbal on 08:55

Muhammadiyah has set the Eid falls on July 17, while the government has not yet determined.

Most likely the celebration of Eid 2015 is different again. Muhammadiyah has set the Eid falls on July 17, while the government has not yet determined.

"However, some experts say the celebration of Eid prayers reckoning falls on Saturday, July 18th, 2015, in which the calculation bilal still so many degrees to determine 1st Shawwal and the end of the Ramadan fast implementation," said Prof. Dr. Tulus Warsito, M.Si, HI lecturer in Yogyakarta Muhammadiyah University (in St. Louis), told reporters on Tuesday (14/7).

Although there are differences, Tulus requested that it not be exaggerated. Indonesia is the largest Muslim country that always tolerate differences, including differences in the celebration of the feast. "Basically there is no problem that must be devoted, we must address these differences in a positive," he said.

Sincere explained, the difference Eid implementation of this occurred in the calculations performed by some regions and some organizations. For example between the government and the Muhammadiyah frequent differences in the calculation. How to calculations made by the government to look at the moon. While Muhammadiyah had predicted earlier. But that does not mean this difference arouses clash during the celebration of the feast.

In terms of culture, according to Tulus, Indonesia has the characteristic of welcoming Ramadan, regardless of differences in determining the beginning and end of Ramadan itself. During Ramadan, it can be seen the preparation of the public when preparing dishes in addition to cultural Lebaran friendship is always maintained community.

"Celebration of the Feast of the diamond eat it only in Indonesia, Malaysia Eid celebration at no eating culture diamond. This is what needs to be outline that the difference was not a problem and we have to tolerate the others, "he said.

UMY as educational institutes, according to Tulus, tolerate differences. Moreover, due to different festivals. Calculations were performed Muhammadiyah has become the hallmark of UMY in determining 1st Shawwal. That is, each person has a different understanding in determining the 1st Shawwal. The most important thing is how different it would not be bloodshed among men to one another, he reminded.

Gravity, squid, and Blindness: What Is It Like Living in Space?

By: Syaifuddin Iqbal on 20:14

The resilience of the human body's mission in the International Space Station for a year was launched on March 27 and involved 19 medical and biological testing, 14 of which are designed by the Russian Space Agency. Cosmonaut Mikhail Kornienko and NASA astronaut Scott Kelly will also perform two experiments together. Most of the tests will be used by scientists to assess the ability of the human body during space travel for the preparation of long-term missions to Mars.

Famine in Space Without Gravity

As indicated by several previous trials, conditions of weightlessness affects human eating habits. Food does not have weight in space, so the astronauts feel hungry more often compared to when they were on Earth. According to Boris Afonin, scientific supervisor of food testing, increased appetite combined with a low amount of physical activity sometimes creates weight gain space explorers.

Another impact is the weightless conditions astronauts experience a change in their sense of taste while in space. "It's not salty foods into sweet or sour," said Afonin. "But astronauts often realize that the food they like while undergoing test trials on Earth invisible food tasty again. Some of them complained they were not getting pleasure from eating while on a mission. The cause of it is still to be us to investigate."

However, upon returning home, astronauts can not immediately eat beefsteak or borsht (typical Russian beet soup), as suspected people. "They need to adapt in advance, because after completing a mission in outer space, Earth digesting food takes hard work," said Afonin. "The reason weightless conditions also suppress the activity of the human digestive system, or in other words the intestine loses its ability to push the food."

However, according Afonin, all of it is just common assumptions, and that he supervised trials will determine which part of the human digestive tract are the most affected, including if there is a risk of pathological changes. The data will be used to figure out how to avoid dangerous changes in the digestive system and devise an optimal diet for astronauts.

Blood Flow to the Top

Russian scientists involved in the mission will also monitor the body's metabolism Mikhail Kornienko. Every two months, the cosmonauts will fill out a questionnaire regarding the consumption of water and food, take blood samples, and the results are displayed in a special tool called "sprut" (squid in Russian).

Data is expected to help scientists see how weightlessness affects the immune system and the endocrine system of man. "Even small changes in the endocrine gland can affect the performance of astronauts," said Galina Vasilieva, chief researcher at the Institute of Biomedical Problems of the Russian Academy of Sciences.

In addition, the effect of zero-gravity conditions also have an impact on the redistribution of human body fluids and can lead to dehydration. "The condition of weightlessness makes a large amount of blood is redistributed to the upper body," said Vasilieva. "All organs, including the liver, have to work harder. To adapt this regard, the body tries to get rid of excess fluid. As a result, on the first day of the mission astronauts showed an increase in the amount of urine."

When astronauts return to Earth, it is the other way: gravity ambushed and blood tend to be driven to the bottom of the body, so the astronauts could hardly stand on their feet after landing. The trials were conducted by the Russian team will help facilitate and accelerate adaptation in good condition in space and on Earth.

Too Easy Breathing

Another test conducted dubbed "UdoD" (a kind of colored birds in Russia). The first test done when astronauts are in zero-gravity conditions. These trials study the impact of the redistribution of fluid in the respiratory system and vision. Increased blood flow to the upper body causing intracranial pressure. This can result in reduced vision capabilities, which have been reported by several astronauts. It also happens when astronauts stood upside down.

As part of the experiment, Mikhail Kornienko will breathe using a special tool that is designed to lower blood pressure in the chest cavity and pushes the blood back down, said one of the Russian scientist Alexander Suvorov. "In a zero-gravity conditions, weakened respiratory muscles, the same as the leg muscles, because there is easier to breathe," Suvorov said. "UdoD designed to make greater efforts cosmonauts do breathe in weightless conditions, working like a sports machine," he explained.

One of the most anticipated movies this year is The Avenger 2: Age of Ultron. Indonesia is a country that is fortunate because since April 22, the public can watch the film first made in Marvel and Walt Disney that, 10 days faster than the audience in continental United States and Europe.

Just like the first movie that aired in 2012, the second volume of The Avengers was strengthened old players like Chris Hemsworth (Thor), Robert Downey Jr. (Iron Man), Chris Evans (Captain America), Jeremy Renner (Hawkeye), Scarlett Johansson ( Black Widow), and Mark Ruffalo (Hulk).

Avenger movie plot starts when re-assembled in full force when the world received threats from Hydra, the main enemy of Captain America. The group is dangerous because the evil scientist Hydra, using the magic wand Loki, Thor's half sister, merupaka ruled the Earth.

 

Although not experiencing difficulties in defeating the Hydra army, but the hero we feel overwhelmed because it turns out that the group has two superhuman to block their arrival.

Both are Scarlet Witch (Elizabeth Olsen) and Quicksilver (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) who has the ability to control the mind and running quickly. But thanks to the solid cooperation of the Avengers finally able to conquer the Hydra.

But the problem does not stop there. After getting the wand Loki, Tony Stark the Iron Man, want to investigate what magical material owned it. He wants to use sorcery to protect the Earth from alien attack in the future.

Because it is considered good intentions, Thor allow his brother Tony researching magic wand. Unfortunately, Tony secretly prepare materials Artificial Intelligence beings who can think for themselves later called Ultron.

Unfortunately, it turns out Ultron designed to have its own ideas, have an arrogant nature like Tony. So he refused to submit to their masters, and intends to destroy Iron Man and his friends. Not only that, Ultron began looking for a strong body frame to dominate the Earth.

Plus minus first impressions

The movie aired Avenger 2: Age of Ultron faster in Indonesia brings the pros and cons. There are agreed that local audiences can witness first rather than viewers in other countries.

But on the other hand, there is the feel concerned, because it is often the appearance of superhero movies faster than other countries, indicating the trust Hollywood to us small. Some say, they are afraid that this film is shown in conjunction with other countries in Indonesia, will be faster pirated DVDs circulating in the country.

While other opinion says, serving first in the third region (one of the countries in Southeast Asia) so that when the film is aired outside the United States, he has not received the rating of foreign film critics, which is known to sharply criticize the movie- potentially blockbuster movie.

Although out there developing a lot of guesswork, which is obviously the Walt Disney as the distributor has his own comments on the reasons why this super hero movie to be aired early in our country.

"Indonesia was chosen to be one of the countries in Southeast Asia that was first broadcast this sequel, because the Marvel brand has a tremendous fan here," said Amit Malhotra, General Manager of Studio Entertainment The Walt Disney Company.

To promote Avengers 2, Walt Disney has even done some promotional activities, one gimmick in the form of Hulk Truck and the Truck Hulkbuster around the capital.

Going forward, they plan to bring in trucks Captain America, Thor, and Black Widow, so that loyal fans Avengers, can greet and meet them on 1-3 May 2015.

"By screening Avengers: Age of Ultron on April 22, we hope to spoil Marvel fans in Indonesia, which has been faithfully waiting for continuation of the story of the Earth's mightiest Heroes," explains Amit.

Loyal Fans

Talking about the movie The Avengers, it's not complete if not requesting comments from loyal fans of the super hero character in the Marvel made in Indonesia. For them it is, people are always in favor of all forms of Marvel products in Indonesia, both comic and movie.

Interviewed Friday afternoon, April 24, 2015, the Chris Saxon, Community officials Marvel Indonesia Bandung branch admitted, he personally welcomed the Avengers movie slot 2 is faster in the country.

"Marvel's films always appear first in Indonesia (besides Avengers, Spiderman for example) and is a fortune. That's why we aggressively community events, watching together. Because in other countries has not been aired, so we're the first, "said the man 31 years, worked as a freelance translator that.

Meanwhile, Chis friend named Singgih Nugroho, administrators Jakarta branch of the Indonesian Marvel Community has slightly different comments.

He said, indeed obtaining Marvel movies sold in almost every country. But apparently the reason why Marvel movies often appear first in our country, because it is actually a local audience is not the main target of the filmmaker.

"Fans are many, but perhaps not as much as they want. Therefore, I think they are still the main target audience and the surrounding States. It's about the cultural problems of the Internet in our country that has not been as good as in other countries, "he said.

Furthermore, he said, no idea if the film The Avengers first aired in the United States. Singgih sure spoiler (leak of the film, which is usually made bloggers or the krustiskus who accidentally write) will be everywhere.

"Not to mention the problem of its CamRip format (format with poor quality pirated) rapid aired on the Internet. Well, might spoil the enjoyment we watch, "said 30-year-old commercial scripwriter it.

Regardless of the pros and cons of it, Chris said, welcoming the arrival of The Avengers 2 is faster, he and his friends in the City of Flowers held a watching together Sunday, April 26th next. Attendance usually dozens, and this time they chose cinema Trans Studio Mall.

Meanwhile, not to be outdone, Marvel Indonesian Community Jabodetabek region, also held a watching the show with a massive Gandaria City Mall, Saturday, April 25th. It also does the same community friends, who are in Surabaya and Palembang.

As a lover of heavy figures Marvel hero, Singgih recommend the movie The Avengers 2: Age of Ultron. He explained this is a film that is safe to consume all people, children and adults.

Mecca is a Mainland Center World

By: Syaifuddin Iqbal on 23:39

Scientific findings horrendous scientists and published in January 1977 states, "The city of Mecca is the center of the land in the world." This fact was discovered after a long research and refers to a number of highly complex mathematical table with the aid of computer technology.

Egyptian scientist, Dr. Husein Kamaludin, the inventor of this fact tells the story quite astonishing discovery that this research begins with a purpose very different from the results obtained. At first research conducted to obtain a tool that can help anyone and at any place on the globe is to examine and determine the position of the Qibla.

Because, during his travels to foreign countries, he felt that the determination of Qiblah direction has always been a problem faced by all Muslims as being in a place that no mosque or prayer hall which has obvious sign of the direction of Qibla. This problem often faced by someone who is outside the country (which is not the land of Islam), for example, the students were sent abroad.

Therefore, Dr Husain Kamaludin think to create a new world map which contains instructions position Qiblah direction. After making the initial draft preliminary research aimed to make this new map and drawing five continents on the map, suddenly finding that invite admiration it appears.

Egyptian scientists have discovered that the position of the city of Mecca are right in the middle of the world. He then holds up a run and put one end in the image of Mecca and then run the other end at the end of every continent. It turns out that land on the surface of the globe is divided systematically around the city of Mecca. From here, he found that the city of Mecca is the center of the mainland. Subsequently he took an ancient map before the discovery of America and Australia. After testing many times, he found that the Mecca remains a central point of the mainland, up when compared with the conditions of the early period of the Islamic world map.

Dr Husain Kamaludin added, "I began this study by drawing a map that takes into account distance of all the places on earth with the city of Mecca. I then measured the same line of longitude to determine the position of latitude and longitude when measured from the city of Mecca. After that, I picture the continental boundaries and rights of other details on this line line network. It requires a very complicated mathematical processing, with the help of computer technology in order to determine the required distance and deviation. This research also requires drawing software latitude and longitude for the new projection.

By chance discovered that a can draw a circle centered on the city of Mecca and its limits beyond limits to all six continents. And this circle line around the edge of the outer limits of the continental limits of the continent. Thus, Mecca is the heart of the earth. And it had previously been indicated by the findings of modern science by scientists, which mentions the city of Mecca is the center of gravity magnetic radiation. Unique phenomenon will also be felt by all those who visit the city of Mecca for the Hajj or Umrah purpose, with a sincere heart and repent to God. He felt as if attracted by all that is in Mecca, from the ground, mountains, until all that is there, as if he felt fuse together the city of Mecca with all their body and soul. And this is a feeling that has continued since the beginning of the earth's existence.

As with the other planets, the earth also do barter fascination with planets planets and other stars. This appeal comes from inside the earth boils down to one central point of the earth which is also the source of the radiation beam. Plutonic meeting point is what was discovered by an American scientist in the field of topography after ensuring the existence and geography. In this case it certainly is not driven by religious beliefs. Day and night, with high spirits he worked in his laboratory while facing Earth maps and other supplies. And accidentally she discovered that cosmic radiation was the meeting center in the city of Mecca.

Referring to the scientific facts above, we can recognize the wisdom behind the selection of the city of Mecca as a place of establishment of the House, as well as shoots spread of the message of Islam throughout the world. And this proves the scientific miracles contained in the hadith of the Prophet which displays the status of the city of Mecca virtue than anywhere else on earth. Allaah nature.

Allah He will say, "and that you may give a warning to residents of Umm Al-Qura (Mecca) and those people outside environment." (Surat al-An'am 92) Prophet stood on the hill Hazwarah (in Mecca) and said in the city of Mecca, "I know that you are as good as God's good earth and the most beloved to Allah, if your family does not issue from you, surely I can not get out.

Targeting the ASEAN market, Russia Ready to Compete with China and the US

By: Syaifuddin Iqbal on 20:57

Trade relations with Russia is not only of interest to ASEAN. Based on information from news agency Yonhap, South Korea along Russia will take part in a joint enterprise project in the special economic zone of North Korea's Rajin-Sonbong in late April. "The conflict between Russia and the West as a result of the Ukrainian crisis triggered ambitious targets Korean diplomacy," said Deputy Foreign Minister of South Korea Cho Tae-yul in Seoul, Monday (13/4).

Ambition April

In the Russian delegation, the Russian government and Vietnam signed an agreement to increase the amount of energy generation in Vietnam and supplied Sukhoi Superjet 100 aircraft and rail cars for the country. Russian companies also are negotiating to build Nuclear Power Plant Energy first Vietnam Ninh Thuáºn I, acquired the Dung Quat oil refinery, as well as the Russian KAMAZ trucks assembled in Vietnam.

From Vietnam, the Russian Prime Minister to visit Thailand to sign an agreement with the government of Vietnam 7 to 8 April. It includes cooperation in the energy sector, the supply of Sukhoi Superjet 100 and KAMAZ trucks, as well as the use of the Thai capital to build a railway line in Kalimantan, Indonesia. Thailand's own party managed to negotiate to increase the supply of agricultural products to Russia.

 

The Competitors

One of the most important statement in the Russian Prime Minister's visit is the statement of Prime Minister Nguyen Tan Dung related to the establishment of a free trade zone negotiations between Vietnam with the Eurasian Economic Union, led by Russia. According to senior officials of the Vietnamese, it may be realized in the next few months. "Vietnam is an ideal door to enter the dynamic ASEAN region, and facilitate Russia's move to create new contracts with other countries which are members of ASEAN," said Head of the Department of Analysis Deutsche Bank Yaroslav Lisovolik.

However, Trans-Pacific Partnership led by the United States is also trying to enter the area, while local free trade zone between China and ASEAN was already in operation.

"The Russian company has the ability to compete are likely to be lower in business compared to the EU, the US, Australia, and China, countries that have started operations in Vietnam and Thailand," said Yury Zaytsev of the Institute of Applied Economic Studies at the Russian Presidential Academy of National Economy and Public Administration (RPANEPA). According to Zaytsev, regulatory differences in Asian countries is also a barrier for Russian entrepreneurs.

But according Lissovolik, Russia has several advantages which are very useful in establishing trade relations with ASEAN. "First, we can open up the entire Eurasian Economic Union market for our partners. Second, a proposal for cooperation fuel and energy with Russia would be of interest to banak country."

In addition, Russia will try to conduct inter-regional cooperation, said Viktor Sumsky, Director of the ASEAN Centre at MGIMO University. "Especially in an attractive investment in the Russian Far East."

Russia seeks to develop trade cooperation with Asian countries since its relationship with Europe and the US froze.

"For us, Vietnam and Thailand is an import-export diversification and investment risk," said Zaytsev.

Overall, according to Lissovolik, all steps have been correctly. "ASEAN is the most dynamic market and rapidly growing in the world today."

Travel and Culture Business Guide, Student Surabaya Raup Million Rupiah

By: Syaifuddin Iqbal on 14:23

Not only engaged in the field of tourism, youth business also aims to introduce the culture of each location in tourist destinations.

A businessman engaged in traveling must often travel. That principle upheld by a Hadi Kurniawan, who is CEO of CV Concept of Global Media, a travel agent that combines the concept of travel with cultural performances. According to Hadi, in Indonesia is still not a lot of travel agents also provide cultural performances to cutomernya. Business opportunities is what trying developed by Hadi through travel agents, which he founded in March 2014, then. Here are excerpts of an interview with Hadi Kurniawan Studentpreneur.

Since when did you start interested in setting up travel business?

The concept is a line of business that is engaged in the field of tourism with the three business sectors. Among them are booking travel tickets and travel packages, then channeling the artistic talent of the youth in Surabaya and also CONCEPT travel guide app provider. All three business sectors have become a weapon for me to develop the tourism business in Indonesia. I am interested in running a tourism business because Indonesia has a huge potential in the field of tourism and culture. And incidentally this is the first month anniversary concept in March 2014 stood at last.

Many people who set up a business travel agent, what is different from CONCEPT?

As I mentioned above, CONCEPT has three business sectors related to tourism and culture. We also work closely with hotels renowned for holding cultural events to introduce the tourists the beauty of this country. One of them is to get the trust of Hotel Ciputra to handle some foreign tourists who want to see cultural performances held at Juanda International Airport on some time ago.

In addition, customers who want to travel can do it all with one stop service through CONCEPT. Because the customer will not be enjoying the tour, but also can see the performance of diverse cultures. In fact, through the application CONCEPT travel guide, customers not only can know tourist destinations in the city, but also can get a cultural agenda.

Already menyeleanggarakan how many times the event and worked with the company anything for this?

In the last year, CONCEPT has organized the event as much as 10 times. That means, almost once a month we have always held a themed events and cultural tourism. Some well-known companies and hotels have worked with CONCEPT. Among them is the Hotel Shangrila, Hotel Ciputra, Hotel Majapahit, Garden Palace, Earth, Juanda International Airport, Coffee Toffee and many others. In addition, the talent was derived from a reputable institution that gave birth to many talented young people who demonstrate ability in the arts.

How is the development of the travel business in Indonesia today?

Creative industries like tourism in Indonesia is now also being menunukkan geliatnya. Lots of travel businesses that have sprung up like mushrooms in the rainy season. However, little is business travel which just shows the potential of the local tourism as well local culture. Yet, in Indonesian culture is not inferior to that of overseas because it has hundreds of tribes with their respective cultures.

On the other hand, travel in Indonesia is still considered expensive by many foreign tourists and domestic tourists. It was caused by a lack of government can develop the potential of the tourism business. Lots of tourism infrastructure that need to be addressed to support the movement of tourism and culture. Not only access or roads to tourist sites, but also a lot of public facilities at tourist sites inadequate. Therefore, the government would have to engage fully in support of businesses in the tourism sector and culture.

What is the price offered and the customer obtained for all to travel?

Related to the price, of course this can not be made the default. Because, once the price of travel is determined by many factors. The farther the location of the tourist destinations of course the price will be more expensive than a short distance. Facilities and cultural agenda that followed was also a deciding factor the price of a tour.

Once the event, we usually average to reach 2 hours with a variety of cultural performances such as dances. Typically, the talent involved 100 people and can reap domestic or foreign tourists up to 300-400 people. Certainly not easy to handle people who number in the hundreds. But it all paid off when the tourists give a positive appreciation and want dance performances displayed once again. That means, the tourists are very happy and enjoy the show are displayed.

So, do not be afraid to compete with other travel agents?

As a travel agent that he was still whole corn, of course we have to learn a lot of senior business people travel agents. But, it does not make me and become shriveled to compete with them. The reason we have a separate target market that has not been produced by others. Usually we indeed underrated, but after seeing some of the achievements, many people are starting to appreciate what has been done by CONCEPT. Some travel package offered by CONCEPT is very different from the many others offered by travel agents.

What is to be considered in order to successfully run a travel business?

Running a business, especially with regard to tourism must necessarily have a high passion for travel. Because, how a CEO who is engaged in tourism can be explains to customers about the potential of the tourism sector in the beauty of the place if he had never been to the place. So, a businessman tarvel agent required to travel in order to know the tourism potential of what can be offered to customers.

CONCEPT is an abbreviation of Tourism Arts configuration that combines the world of tourism and culture. I also have a hobby that became a passion to always explore the culture and tourism in Indonesia. Although some knowledge related to the world of culture but I do not hesitate to hold talent-gifted talent in the arts to join CONCEPT. So, my experience to travel and also a great team in other areas that ultimately make CONCEPT can do many great things like now.

How do you build a great team?

Build a great team in the world of business is not easy. All businesses also must have felt the same as me. Moreover, in the business world of tourism. Because, often I hire employees who were not ever travel. Finally, they were like not eager to work better because it is constrained to be knowledge in the field of tourism. In fact, the employee has a very high expertise in their respective fields such as IT and graphic design. Therefore, when running a tourism business should not native to hire an employee. Look for employees who have a background of ever making tours to many tourist destinations and even the extreme though. Today, CONCEPT already have a pretty solid team because it fits with the vision and mission as well as its slogan, namely "after return, go again". This is embedded in every CONCEPT that after the home team will continue to travel again, again and again.

How do you run a business with college together today if it had gone home concept, go again?

It's a question that makes my dilemma to answer. The reason, running a business would provide a distinct advantage in terms of material for me. But education is also the main thing to be able to finish well. So far, in Indonesia still embracing the concept that the businessman who also completed a college education is the main thing. Although many examples of foreign businessmen who succeed without formal education but it is belun applicable in Indonesia. So, sometimes be a difficult choice when following the lecture suddenly there are customers who phone to make a deal and travel. Now I am already half eight and being an apprentice stage, so it's not the right time to declare retreat from college. Please prayer in order to study the business smoothly and I was successful.

Finally, what advice for business beginners who want to start a business?

CONCEPT is really not just a business for making a lot of profit. We not only give priority to profit alone, but also benefits the wider community. Among them is to provide education related to the world of tourism with the introduction of the tourist and cultural potential of a location or tourist destinations in all corners of Indonesia. By Karrena it, in running a business should your product can provide benefit to many people. Your product must be a solution to a problem that exists in society. By doing so, the business goes not only provide benefits to your company, but also provides many benefits to the community.
