Nation’s Frontline Ambassadors

Some have taken a two-week leave from work; some have brought their families with them. However, they are not on a holiday. They are the volunteers of the 2018 Asian Games.

Kasmuri, 24, is one volunteer. On Wednesday (8/8/2018), Kompas met him at Cawang train station in East Jakarta, right after he finished teaching at a community foundation in Bekasi, West Java.

The youngest of five siblings joined Asian Games volunteers’ team after undergoing two stages of selection. In the first selection stage from September to October last year, the math teacher failed. “I was late in submitting my personal data,” he said.
