“I really appreciate this activity. Currently, the country is giving independence to students who have achievements and excellence. With this activity, please prove what you have.”
“After you graduate, you will have the capital and identity of someone who has been recommended, appreciated, and proven. Everyone has their strengths and weaknesses, and of course, we must be able to cover our weaknesses with our strengths. My message to students is to please maximize your strengths and advantages.”
