LETTER OF RECOMMENDATION

To Whom It May Concern:

Mr. Willy Bachrens Rumangkang, S.T. has asked that I prepare this official Letter of Recommendation to support his intention to continue his study abroad. I do so with great enthusiasm.
About three years ago in 2005, Mr. Rumangkang completed his first degree (Sarjana Teknik, S.T.) in the Department of Electrical Engineering, Atmajaya University, Makassar INDONESIA, one of the most prominent private universities in the city, where I myself have been with since 1995.  He was one of my best students. Mr. Rumangkang took all of my classes in Electronics and Linear Systems area. As I remember it, he always received good grades for her excellent test-results, examination and class-papers. I supervised his final undergraduate project; which was a model development project and the simulation of the seaport of Makassar’s large container crane. He applied the fuzzy logic algorithm to control the motion of the crane’s model. It was an ambitious project, but he managed to complete it successfully together with his partner, showing his competence in his field and his ability to work with others in a team. During his tenure as a student, Mr. Rumangkang has also an experience with the coastal radio station for navigation in Makassar seaport area. 
	After his graduation, Mr. Rumangkang found his first job in a very different field. He started his career in the “real world” working as a graphic-designer in a studio in Jakarta, the country’s capital city. Only six months later, the same company promoted him to a new position in the department of finance. This has shown that this young man always managed to get his job done, whatever kinds of the jobs were. He has a lot of potentials, so he told me that he is interested to continue his study in the engineering management or other related fields of study. I have no doubt that he will also manage to complete his study successfully without any difficulty what so ever.  
I have been so thoroughly impressed by Mr. Rumangkang’s academic competence in her field and his broad experiences, so that I wholeheartedly recommend him for any opportunity to continue his study to pursue a higher degree in engineering management or any other area he is interested in. 
Should you wish to get any further information, please feel free to contact me, and I will be more than happy to respond to your inquiries.

With kindest regards,

Dr.Ir.H. Rhiza S. Sadjad, M.S.E.E.
