According to him, part of the vision had been achieved through his election as the Co-Chair for International Advisory Board, Coastal and Marine Institute, Xiamen University, in China. “They appoint us as the representative, meaning our faculty is respected. We are also accepted as a member of ASEAN Fishery Education Network in 2016. This means that ASEAN respects us,” he added.

Behind the story, Dr. Luky was a person who had an artistic soul. He enjoyed listening to soft music. He also liked to paint and play music. “Because of the time, now rarely painting, but a few years ago he has a week to paint. I also play guitar and keyboard. Unprofessional. To please oneself is more than enough,” he concluded. (NIRS/NM)
