Scholarship Batch 11

My name is M Raditya Darmawan, a second-semester student in the Music Education program at Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia. I have a great passion for music, art, and education because I believe that music is not only a form of entertainment, but also a medium to convey messages, build character, and connect people through creativity and artistic expression.

I am a person with a strong enthusiasm to continuously grow and learn. Besides being active in academic activities, I have also been a member of the Muhibah Angklung Team since 2023. Together with the team, I have had the opportunity to participate in various international cultural missions to Portugal, Spain, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, and Australia. These experiences have given me many valuable lessons, ranging from understanding cultural diversity, improving communication and teamwork skills, to broadening my perspective on how Indonesian culture can be introduced and appreciated internationally.

I aspire to become a well-known singer as well as a professor in the field of music education. For me, success is not only about personal achievement, but also about how the knowledge, experiences, and works we possess can provide benefits to many people. Therefore, I have a strong motivation to continue my education and develop my abilities, both academically and non-academically.

In the future, when I become a professor, I want to contribute to the advancement of education in Indonesia, especially in the fields of arts and music. I hope to help create a more inspiring, creative, and high-quality educational environment for younger generations so they can develop their potential and confidently pursue their dreams. I believe that education is an essential foundation for building a better future for the nation.

Hello, my name is Yohana Aprilia Purba, a second-semester student majoring in Telecommunication Engineering at Telkom University. I have a strong interest in technological advancements and how technology can create broader opportunities in an increasingly connected world.

For me, education is not only about gaining knowledge in the classroom, but also about developing myself through various experiences that broaden my perspective and way of thinking. Therefore, in addition to focusing on academics, I am also actively involved in campus organizations to improve my communication skills, teamwork, and leadership.

Since 2023, I have been part of the Muhibah Angklung Team, an activity that provides me with opportunities to participate in various international cultural missions. Through this, I have had the chance to travel to several countries such as Portugal, Spain, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, and Australia.

These experiences have given me many valuable lessons, ranging from adapting to international environments, working collaboratively in teams, to understanding diverse cultural perspectives. They have also broadened my worldview and inspired me for the future. I believe that with the knowledge, experience, and opportunities I have, I can continue to move forward to create a greater future.

My name is Muhammad Irfan Nabhan. I am a second-semester master’s student in the Department of Urban Design at the School of Architecture, Planning, and Policy Development (SAPPK), Bandung Institute of Technology. I am enrolled in a fast-track program, which allowed me to begin my master’s studies immediately following my bachelor’s graduation in May 2025.

During my undergraduate studies, I participated in various student activities, such as serving on the organizing committee for the 2021 ITB Student Council General Election. I am the former Chair of the Pangripta Loka Urban Planning Student Association (HMP PL) ITB Commissariat for the 2024–2025 term. I have been a member of the Muhibah Angklung Team since 2019.

I am currently an active member and have been entrusted with the role of General Chair of the Muhibah Angklung Team for 2026. As an angklung performer, I dance in four traditional dances with the Muhibah Angklung Team and play several additional instruments, particularly the Contra Bass. For the Angklung Fest 2023 project, I served as a member of the Website Division, Event Division, and Business Development. Amid my busy schedule, I remain grateful for my solid academic achievements, which rank quite well compared to the overall performance of ITB students. My greatest accomplishment has been participating in two cultural missions with the Muhibah Angklung Team: a trip to the United States in 2022 and a trip to Australia in 2025.

I joined Tim Muhibah Angklung in 2023, before joining The team, I had no experience playing the angklung, but I believe that trying new things and stepping out of my comfort zone has allowed me to advance in my development and pursue my goals.

Hello, my name is Lulu Riskilia Putri Purba. I am a Telkom University student majoring in Communication Sciences, 6th semester. I am interested in communication science where communication has a broad scope and is also one of the most important things in everything.

I am a person who has high aspirations and is enthusiastic about achieving higher education and I like to try new things and sometimes I like to challenge myself if I feel too comfortable in my own zone.

One of the organizations I used to join on campus was IKC (Ikom Channel), which operates in the television broadcasting field, and outside of campus I have been joining the Angklung Muhibah Team organization since 2023 and have gone on cultural mission trips to Europe, the Emirates, Saudi Arabia and Australia.

In my free time, I also enjoy reading books, watching documentaries, and discussing with friends to gain new perspectives. These activities help me understand more about various aspects of life, including how to communicate effectively in various situations.
