Indonesian Student Wins IT Award

TEMPO.CO, Yogyakarta - An Indonesian student from the Gadjah Mada University (UGM) in
Yogyakarta, Ramadhan Chairan Maulana, has won an award at the 6th International Symposium
on Technology for Sustainability 2016.
"We are proposing a paper on a technology that helps climbers in getting information about
weather around the mountain," Ramadhan said on Monday, November 14, 2016.
The technology named 'Arduino' is the Safety Information Guidance for Climbers that
displays weather information around the mountain, including temperature, humidity, and air
pressure.
"Also, the tool displays a security level and health impacts that are possible to occur
according to the data," he explained.
Ramadhan added that the tool, which is also called "Duo Serigala" (two wolves) has a
navigation system that shows the starting point and the peaks.
There is also an S.O.S button that functions to call an emergency help. "This feature works
based on radio frequency. I hope this equipment helps climbers in completing their climbing
and prevent accidents," Ramadhan said.
The international symposium has been participated in by 200 university students from
Japan, the Philippine, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, and Indonesia.
It was a collaboration of the Gadjah Mada University and Japan National Institute of
Technology (NIT).

University of Oxford hosts tempe-making workshop
The Jakarta Post
Jakarta | Wed, November 23, 2016 | 02:14 pm
The Indonesian Students Association at the University of Oxford, UK, hosted a tempe
(fermented soybean)-making workshop on Sunday in collaboration with the Indonesian Tempe
Movement (ITM).
The association’s chairman, Sandoko Kosen, told Antara news agency on Tuesday that the
workshop aimed to increase public awareness of tempe, an authentic Indonesian food.
Tempe was chosen because it is a delicious and healthy food, environmentally friendly and
is seen as a part of local cultures. These features give the soy superfood unique potential in the
international food, health, art and business sectors.
By learning the tempe-making process, Sandoko hoped the attendees would have a better
understanding of the traditional food and be inspired to open a tempe-related business.
The workshop idea came from ITM’s founder Amadeus Driando Ahnan-Winarno, a student of
the food science graduate program at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, United States.
The event was part of ITM’s activities, which included an international conference, tempe book
publication and registering tempe as a UNESCO intangible heritage. (jes/kes)
