I am the Deputy Regent in Indonesia, I feel that I know a lot of things. But my curiosity and continued learning pushed me to join this program. With hard work, I tried to focus and understand all the things that were conveyed. In the end, I realized that it turned out that his knowledge was extraordinary, super, and really amazed and made me proud.

I learned so much about protocol and the order of precedence. The many examples of Diplomacy have remained with me. I do intend to assist my staff members with manners and etiquette.. WoW. It's like I went on a journey from every angle of protocol and diplomacy. I shall sure review the notes so as to perfect the art of protocol and diplomacy.
