I know the TFscale program from my Campuss in Polinema Politeknik Negeri Malang, Indonesia .
I followed the selection on 3 phase to qualify for this TFScale program .First, the selection of students with GPA more than 3.5 . Second, we must make the proposal project using Raspberry Pi Technology . The third is I must presented my proposal in front of the lecturer.
I was lucky I was able to be selected and follow this TFScale program.I heard, TFScale program is the student exchange program activities in the field of technology and social community.
so we can apply science in technology to help others. So I am interested to participate in this program.
I went to Singapore from Juanda Airport in Surabaya with 20 students from Malang city, 18 from Polinema and 2 from Poltekom Malang. We departed on October 5th 2015 at 1 pm and arrived at Changi Airport 3:30 pm.
My first impression when arriving in Singapore are:
1.Clean. Singapore is a clean country . All the buildings look neat and well ordered. No garbage visible around the road or in public place .
2.The air was hot enough. When I arrived in Singapore, the air that I felt different with the air in my residence is in Malang. Malang is cold and cool.
3.Modern. Singapore is a modern country and full of advanced facilities every where. All public facilities are already using the newest technology.
4.Secure. In Singapore we felt safe because of all the security facilities are good. I dont have to worry about theft or pickpocketing because there are CCTV at every place and every street corner in Singapore.
5.The road is very clear . The first time I came to Changi Airport and trip to the Republic Polytechnic in the Woodlands area, I didn’t see the jam along the way. All vehicles running smoothly without a hitch. And I rarely see people riding a motorcycle. Most driving a car. There are still many good and wonderful impression when I set foot in Singaporefor the first time. Our group from Indonesia welcomed by friends from the Republic Polytechnic of Singapore. They are very friendly and willing to help us learn about the environment and life in Singapore. I am very happy, enthusiastic,and enthusiast in following TFScale program that I will live for 19 days. What a really fun and exciting activities!
