فيضانات ٢٠٢٤

يا الله، احمِ إخوتنا وأخواتنا المتضررين من الفيضانات. احفظهم من كل ضرر ومعاناة طويلة الأمد.

نسأل الله أن يمنح العائلات والأقارب وكل المتضررين السهولة في مواجهة هذا الابتلاء. احفظهم، وخاصة الضعفاء والمحتاجين.

فلنتحد في الدعاء ونساعد بكل ما نستطيع. نسأل الله أن تنحسر الفيضانات سريعًا وتنخفض.

IS THERE STILL HOPE FOR TUPPERWARE?

Recently, Tupperware filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. Many are wondering if this marks the end for a brand that has long been synonymous with high-quality food storage containers. The answer: not necessarily. Filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy doesn’t mean a company is shutting down. Instead, it allows the company to restructure its operations and business model, giving it a chance to recover and compete again in the market. To better understand, let’s look at three major companies that successfully emerged from this crisis. 1. General Motors (GM) In 2009, GM was on the verge of collapse. However, after a significant restructuring, they bounced back by introducing new car models, including the Chevy Volt, which transformed the electric vehicle landscape. Today, GM has returned as one of the largest car manufacturers in the world, with an annual revenue of $48 billion. 2.

Rupiah Redenomination: A Step Towards Efficiency or a New Challenge?

Economic stability, public readiness, and the psychological impact on the pricing of goods and services are critical factors that require careful consideration. Historical evidence suggests that while some countries have successfully implemented redenomination, others have encountered significant challenges, including psychological inflation and market uncertainty. Is Indonesia prepared to adopt this policy in...

From Ride-Hailing to Life Lessons

Between the end of last year and May 2025, I worked part-time as a ride-hailing driver. Every day, I navigated the streets of Tamalanrea—delivering food, collecting items, and occasionally transporting passengers. That route became a part of my daily rhythm; I memorized every turn, traffic light, and even which shops were busiest at certain hours. Being a ride-hailing driver is far more than just pick-up and drop-off. Each weekend, I planned strategically: activating the app earlier, targeting high-demand areas, and ensuring my motorcycle was in top condition. Through this, I learned invaluable lessons—about time management, customer service, and reading the pulse of the city. Yet, one incident still echoes in my mind. I had briefly stopped at a university canteen near Hasanuddin University when a student—or perhaps a lecturer assistant—remarked, "Kak, how long are you going to keep doing this? You should find a permanent job." I simply smiled. I was momentarily silent—not ou...
