JAKARTA - The Management of the Environmental Engineering Alumni Association of the Sepuluh November Institute of Technology (IKATL ITS) again held a discussion themed 'Cangkrukan Bareng'.

Two figures from the ITS Alumni Association (IKA ITS) were present, namely the Head of SKK Migas Dwi Soetjipto and the Director of PT Pembangunan Jaya Sutopo Kristanto.

The theme of the discussion in Cangkrukan Together this time discussed the leadership of building an organization that is agile, independent, and useful.

The discussion also discussed collaboration and efforts to strengthen the network between ITS alumni ahead of the IKA ITS Congress on August 9-10, 2024.

Dwi Soetjipto at the event encouraged the IKA ITS congress not only to prioritize leadership changes. He asked the ITS alumni association to also discuss various thoughts for the future government.

"Congress will come, don't forget there is a session regarding what we can convey to the new government for Indonesia to face the 2045 golden era," said Dwi in a written statement, Thursday, July 11.

The former chairman of IKA ITS also reminded the importance of prioritizing unity in competition. In this way, he believes that he will create collaboration as well as strengthen the network between ITS alumni.

"With the contribution we make, later it will be used to produce better investments for this country and build its industry. So that we can show sufficient national capacity and we don't have to bring in from other parties," Dwi added.

IKA ITS Chairman Sutopo in the discussion boasting that the ITS alumi bond position is currently quite proud. This condition is because IKA ITS was elected as chairman of the Presidium of the Indonesian State University Alumni Organizational Association (Himpuni).

"Because political standing is important. So we have many figures from ITS who are engaged in all fields, but on the side that influence policies is still lacking," said Sutopo asserted.

Meanwhile, the Deputy Chairperson of IKATL ITS Darmawan Pramana, appreciated the presence of IKA ITS figures. Admittedly in this discussion, many interesting things result from the thoughts of the two figures, including creating a legal entity so that IKATL ITS can do business and be able to finance each activity.

He ensured that the ITS environmental engineering alumni already had complete member data so that they were confirmed to fully support the IKA ITS general chairman election later.

"We and our IKATL ITS friends have been registered and will fully support this step as well as a concrete form of support for the IKA ITS congress," Darmawan explained.
