Ted X Salon Jakarta 2018

On July 20th, 2018

Me and my friends (Dhara, Hanum, Umar) joined an event, called TEDx Salon. As you might know, it was an event held by the TEDx Jakarta team. They initiated an event where everyone can gather and share their ideas, about one related topic or issue. The topic itself was defined by the committee.

And the chosen subject was about policy. So then our discussion related to today's policy began. At first, the audiences were given some spectacles from TED Talks videos and the committee allowed us to give our opinion later on.

We can also mention how we think that there's correlation between each videos and the relation towards specified subject. Overall they tried to engage conversations inside the room.

What I like the most was everyone can speak, formally or informally.

The talks came from first-hand experiences of different people. One can understand, learn something about oneself and diverse mind.

Basically every arguments were fine, no one compete to make their own opinion to be above  other

Each participants could develop and improve their self to become more open-minded, and the ideas that everyone shared were just great. Personally i loved to hear about people's insight. New things have always been attractive in order to feed my curiosity :s

Hearing someone lived his life and faced a lot of things, how he reached success, or how he faced the problems along his way.

I guess by watching discussion on topic you never had any attention, you start to compare you own problems and  to what exists out there and question yourself about what you really know

Also by joining this event, I realized I need more brainstorming activities (as well partners which want to go for it)

cause only then we can have knowledge or insight (or whatevr it is), if it shared from one to another, rite? - hmm at least that's how I identify their “Ideas worth spreading” slogan
