Plans after Retired
Aang – Office Boy Fortune Indonesia
I have worked at Fortune since 1984, when Fortune was located in Cempaka Putih, Jakarta until Fortune occupies Gedung Galaktika. I feel happy to work at Fortune since I could serve Fortuners, the officials and the guests. I thank Bapak Indra Abidin and Bapak Aris Boediharjo and all Fortuners for the trust that has been given to me over the years.
Aside from working at the office, my hobby was to breed catfish at my house yard. Unfortunately the hobby was stopped when the yard was made into a rented house. So now I can no longer breed fish and instead I keep ornamental fish in the aquarium.
After retirement, I plan to relax at home while dropping and picking up my second grandchild who is studying in the 5th grade of elementary school. I have two grandchildren from my only child living at home. Usually I take them to the mall in Cijantung area, East Jakarta. Sometimes I take them on a recreation at Ragunan Zoo, Jakarta. Besides taking care of grandchildren, after retirement, I will focus on taking care of the rented house while waiting for the income from it.
Syarifudin – Collector Fortune Indonesia
Prior to working at Fortune, I worked at a contractor company. Then I was interested in working at Fortune for its kinship. Then, on November 4, 1984, I started to work as a Fortuner. It turns out that until now I did not find obstacles. I thank the management of Fortune for the trust they have given me in accordance with the abilities I have during my 30 years of service. I have the most memorable moment when becoming a Fortuner that is when I was assigned to get Bapak Indra Abidin’s signature who was at the airport. I then chased him to the airport only for the sake of one of company’s clients. Finally I was able to pass through the airport security. With no table available, Bapak Indra signed the check on my back. I wish in the future Fortune will keep the spirit of Hajar! with young workers who become Fortuners.
Aside from work, I take care of birds. I have a collection of four birds that include starling, sooty-headed bulbul and turtledove. So every weekend I take care of the birds, such as feeding and bathing them.
In addition to having more time for the hobby, after retirement I can often drop and pick up my grandchildren and help my wife at the market and take care of other small businesses. I will also often visit my grandchildren who live in Serang, Banten. I have three grandchildren from my two children. My family usually spends time doing sport such as swimming and hanging out at the shopping center.
Lamanto – Senior Finance Officer – Fortune Indonesia
I have become a Fortuner for 31 years since the year 1983. I have changed position for three times since then. I feel grateful to be a Fortuner ever since the company was founded, from not having a new building, to occupying this building. I have experienced many valuable things during my service at Fortune. In between work, I often participate in badminton game with other Fortuners every Thursday night.
I thank the directors, the management, and all Fortuners. Hopefully honesty and discipline are going to be upheld at work. As a Fortuner, you should always go to work, do not make too many excuses for dodging work. As long as you can go to work you go to work, do not be lazy.
After retirement, I plan to open my own business of making and selling frames at the neighboring area. Besides, I will certainly spend time with my grandchildren by having recreation and dining at shopping centers.
