First of all,  this is such a heavy topic to write, especially from the non economist like me. But just to heads up, please bear on me, since this article is just to implement what I learned just now from Economic course 6013. So, any comments or challenge are welcome, and will be good learning for me.  Ok, lets start from Keynesian theory that mentioned that during the crisis, in order to make economy keep running, Government should spending more instead of holding budget.

 Today is my official last day as Marketing head Mayora India (Inbisco), it always emotional every time you need left your colleagues especially with different country.

Pasti beberapa berpikir, kenapa ga cari beasiswa aja? well, unlike jurusan lain seperti sains atau teknologi, unfortunately MBA tidak banyak beasiswanya. Bahkan di LPDP tidak termasuk salah satu jurusan strategis. Jadi pertanyaannya apakah kita akan "pasrah" dan melanjutkan MBA hanya jika dapat beasiswa? saya secara pribadi sudah prepare in last 5 years, menyisihkan dari gaji bulanan THR, dan bonus plus menunda beli ini dan itu. Pun akhirnya mendapat partial scholarship, itu menjadi bonus, tapi kita sudah prepare. Ingat, Well prepared guys always one step Ahead
