Judging for the fifth time for Abang None 2008

For the last few days ago, I was buried by my routines as always. But there was one surprising moment, since I was chosen to be one of the judges of ABNON (Abang None) 2008 for the FIFTH time. Led by Mr. Rusdi Saleh, I together with Mr. Robert P Silalahi, Mrs. Rae Sita Supit, Mrs. Okky Asokawati, Mrs. Ratih Sanggarwati, and Mrs. Tity Koesoemo were responsible to deliver some material for all the Abang None’s contestants based on each of our expertise. We were lecturing as well as sharing our passion to them.

On 28 – 29 July 2008, these two days full of excitement. These days were the beginning of serial judgment for all the contestants. They were asked one by one by each judge. Not only to know their skill but also their knowledge. They are in fact the “ambassador” of Jakarta. Broad and wide knowledge must be blended together with interpersonal skill, to promote Jakarta to the world.

As I told you at the beginning, I have been being the judge for the fifth time. Each year I noticed, there will always changing among all the contestants. Enthusiasm and teamwork spirit are very strong this year. They all young generation of Indonesia evidently gave me back some kind of emotional support and strength.

However, the final judgment hasn’t come yet, all the contestants should wait until fourth of July, where I and the other judges will need to decide one couple (Abang & None) Best of the Best to promote our Jakarta city.

@yunita
hai yunita, boleh saya coba bantu ?
utk bisnis anda di bidang retail komoditi, sudah coba menganalisa nya dengan marketing mix (Product, Price, Plan, Place) ? Sumber-2 informasinya bisa didapatkan secara online, coba ke google.com saja. Sepertinya utk komoditi, tidak bisa price war, unggulkan service dari bisnis anda saja. Misalnya, harga sama dengan toko lain, tapi bisa diantar ke tempat tujuan.
semoga membantu

Maaf jika commentnya terlalu panjang
Nice to know you Mr. HK !
