The event was held on Sunday, August 29th, 2010, at Maja House, a nice resto over the hill of Lembang.The event was also combined with Buka Puasa Bersama and member gathering.

This event also marked the new spirit of President Tanti and VP Mario’s 2010-2011 board by having a full agenda of projects.

Then we’ll wait and see. But for now, let’s congratulate the new board for 2010-2011!

RAC Bandung Metropolitan Sweethearts, Libbi Girindrawardhana (President) and Aggy Rachmawaty (Secretary) had their too-good-to-be-true wedding on July 17th, 2010 at Pusdai, Bandung

Perhaps the merriness of the wedding will be told more by photos. Meanwhile, let’s congratulate the blissful couple!

Unlike last year (2009), RAC Bandung Metropolitan didn’t attend RCOT-RDC this year (2010). This means that no RBM represetative went to the Rotaract biggest event. To keep RAC Bandung Metropolitan updated, District Rotaract Representative (DRR) of RAC D-3400, 2010-2011, Indra Diwangkara, came to Bandung to give us some socialization.

Indra came with DRR 2009-2010, Budi Wibowo and Rtr. Meiliana from RAC Jakarta Sentral. We then had some kind of little meeting to host them. The meeting took place at Kafe Asix, Buah Batu on Saturday, May 29th, 2010.

The member then were having a presentation along with lunch. The presentation mainly talked about several changes in the RAC program in the future. Thanks for DRR Indra for having this nice session with us!

On Sunday, April 4th, the members are gathering again, in the same place, to have a garage sale. This garage sale sells fashionable used clothes which used to belong to the members of Bandung Metro. The result will be donated to Rotaract Club End Polio Program.

So, during the day, Libbi, Aggy, Aradhea, Mario, Ilham, Uti, Minerva, Gina, and three guests successfully gathered 1,4 million Rupiahs. The money will be donated soon, and hopefully can be useful to support the polio program.

The Puspa Iptek Building is a centre for information and technology which is built as the gift from the young scientists to the society. There, people can enjoy the miniature of mechanical, electronic, audio or optical instruments used for more sophisticated matters in real life.

Our little friends, who are mostly elementary school students, really enjoy this trip as an outfield studying session. They, who do not like math, physics or science, might find bright inputs from this place.

This is such an interesting community service activity. Hopefully RBM can still return with more exciting program-trips!!!

MAYA DJATIRMAN

Hope you’ll have a wonderful married life, Maya!

MERRY CHRISTMAS 2009 !!!

and HAPPY NEW YEAR 2010!!!!

Tuesday, December 8th, 2009 was to be marked in history for Indonesia… it was the opening of the 4th Asian Parliamentary Assembly (APA)… in Bandung, Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono (SBY) opened the annual meeting at the Asian-African Building… the event was also attended by APA Secretary Nejad Hosseinian,  APA President Marzuki Alie, and APA’s first President Haddad Adel…

RAC Bandung Metropolitan also participated in the event by sending several members to serve as the first line greeter… The members are Aggy, Gina, Tata, Angga, Mario, Uti, Gina and Anindita… this rare chance was not to be wasted by the participating members since they can meet a lot of people and to some unlikely things, err, such as taking pictures in front of RI 01 aka the President’s car, LOL…

last but not least, one of our lucky members got the honor to hand over the gong-beater to President SBY… the following day, she found herself on newspapers’ front pages along with the honorable APA prominent leaders… this lucky person was TATA!!!

Actually the long holiday season hasn’t come yet… but RAC Bandung Metropolitan’s crews are restless to have some fun time in a fellowship activity… that was why the club service director arranged a fellowship to Dunia Fantasi (DUFAN – Fantasy World) on Saturday, 7 December 2009…

14 members didn’t want to be left behind in participating in all the fun… they are Mahir, Achy, Mario, Rianti, Angga, Tata, Elok, Maya, Ilham, Bagus, Elok, Uti, Icha, and Gina… coordinated by Elok as the Project Officer, here are the photos from Dufan :

The members arrived at Dufan right at the time the gate was opened, which was at 11 AM… then the excited members started the day with Extreme Log, the 4D theatre… after coming out of the theatre, Hallilintar, the roller coaster, waited for them to sucked their screaming voices out… next, they tried Kicir-Kicir and last but not least, the real challenge of all, which was The Tornado…

Several members got nauseous by the rides, especially The Tornado… but it didn’t stop them from having more fun… after going back to Icha’s house in Duren Sawit, the members had a comforting dinner at Birdcage cafe, where they spend the Saturday Night together…

The next day, which was Sunday, most members had to head back to Bandung…The rest of them who worked in Jakarta, also went back to their own houses… But before afternoon, they had lunch at Pondok Indah Mall (PIM) where the second phase of the fellowship began… On the late afternoon, the cars took them back to Bandung and left them wondering when the next fellowship will be…
