This moment can also be used as the internalization of forestry to BEM members” said Dicky Saifurrohman, Chairperson of the 2012-2013 BEM Fahutan.
“During the activity, we held leadership training to reaffirm the spirit of organization and spirit of leadership to BEM Fahutan members. We also held outbound and simple games that educate friends to be closer to nature, to be fresher, and to know each other” he added.
“We share the management of an event to reaffirm the knowledge because there are many members that are still beginners in the executive institution. We also held an art performance to solidify and strengthen the friendships” he explained.
On this occasion, there were also GWUF management represented by Dizy Rizal (Manager) and Adly Rahandi Lubis (Assistant Manager) who presented about the success story of GWUF management from the beginning till this time when it was still a vacant land and converted by the surrounding community with IPB students since 1951 to make the forest full of benefits until this time. It was hoped that this success story will be an inspiration for IPB Faculty of Forestry students to continue managing the forest wisely so as to achieve good results and benefits.
“It is amazing, Gunung Walat University Forest is a pilot forest but impressing me with the success of the management that is very well and at the same time is very remarkable. We are very comfortable holding activities here and I am impressed with the service and assistance from the GWUF management” added Dicky.
