Polsri Students Pass to National Level Born To Protect Event

After going through a fairly rigorous selection process, three students of the Sriwijaya State Polytechnic (Polsri) Department of Information Management (MI) qualified for the Born to Protect event representing the city of Palembang at the National ICT Center Jakarta, Sunday (30/9/2018).
This event was organized by the Ministry of Communication and Information (Kemenkominfo) and PT Xynexis International MI. This selection was even participated by 10 cities throughout Indonesia, and Palembang was one of them. From here, the 100 best people have been selected who will advance to the next stage.
Selection in the city of Palembang itself was carried out at Bina Darma University some time ago.
One of the Polsri students who made it through to this stage, Chindy Indah Pratiwi expressed her gratitude. Because all her hard work that she has done for the past few years has yielded good results.
“After a very tight competition, I am proud and happy to advance to this stage because I have been trusted to be one of the representatives of the city of Palembang in the Born To Protect event organized by Kominfo and PT Xynexis Internasional MI,” he said.
According to him, it is not an easy thing to qualify because the competition is quite tight. So far, Born To Protect has screened around 8,600 registrants to get 100 of the best Gladiators Born To Protect throughout Indonesia.
“There are 2 stages of selection carried out, the first is onsite at the selection site for each city, and the second is online selection.
Therefore, not just anyone can pass through this selection. Only those who really have the intention and talent can guarantee that they will definitely qualify for the next stage,” he explained

Besides Chindy, two other students also passed, namely Muhammad Nurdin and M Dandi Darmawan. The three of them would have made preparations long ago in order to make Palembang city proud.
"100 people who have successfully passed this selection will then take part in the digicamp event. This event is where gladiators are given material about CyberSecurity. Which is trained by trainerbellyrachdianto, namely Best Trainer Asia Pacific," said Chindy.
The Head of the Department of Information Management, Indra Satriadi, S.T., M.Kom also conveyed his motivation, hope and gratitude because three Polsri students had succeeded in making the name of the institution and department proud.
"Given the tight competition, we hope they can give their best. I hope they stay excited for the next stage because I know it was not easy for them to get to this stage," he said.
Meanwhile, CEO of PT Xynexis Internasional MI Eva Noor added that being able to successfully hold the title of Top 100 Gladiators Born To Protect from 8600 registrants is a truly proud achievement.
"It's not easy to hold the title of Top 100 Gladiators Born To Protect, but Polsri students from the MI Department have managed to prove themselves by passing this stage. This is very proud of Polsri and the City of Palembang.

Hopefully later there will be a successor of this great student who will make the name of the Indonesian National Polsri proud at other amazing events,” said Eva.
