Towards the Grand Opening of AMANAH: Creative Hub for Youth Incubation Will Soon be Inaugurated by President Jokowi
Aceh — A historic moment for Aceh’s young generation will soon arrive. In the coming days, the Aneuk Muda Aceh Excellent and Great Building (AMANAH) located in Ladong, Aceh Besar Regency, is ready to be inaugurated by President Joko Widodo. This building is designed as a center for developing creativity and innovation for young Acehnese people, becoming a home for creative industry players from various sectors.
Debby Manaf, a model and dancer who is now a young creative figure from Aceh, shared her experience about the importance of involvement in programs like AMANAH.
Debby told how she used to learn dancing by joining several studios, while for modeling, she admitted that she did it autodidactically, without joining an agency or management.
“I used to be a model and dancer. When I was a dancer, I joined several studios so I was always updated about dance knowledge, updated about dance competitions. I also know the ins and outs of dance. Meanwhile, when I was a model, I did it autodidactically “I didn’t join any agency or management so I really lacked knowledge about modeling and I also didn’t know about the events that were happening at that time,” said Debby.
However, Debby emphasized that with the presence of AMANAH, Aceh’s young generation no longer needs to experience the limitations that he experienced.
“But now you can’t be like that anymore, you have to join AMANAH,” he said to the young people of Aceh.
Debby emphasized that AMANAH is an extraordinary forum for developing the creative potential that exists in Aceh. With development sectors that include sports, fashion, MSMEs, technology and modeling, AMANAH provides extensive opportunities for young Acehnese to grow and develop.
“And what’s no less cool is that the AMANAH building is ready and will be inaugurated by President Joko Widodo,” he added enthusiastically.
Not only Debby Manaf, Teuku Mail, a young Acehnese YouTuber, also has high hopes for AMANAH. Mail, who has been involved in the world of content creation since 2016, shares his experiences about the importance of being productive and creative in creating meaningful content.
“For me, creating content is a way for me to convey the concerns I feel,” said Mail.
He explained that becoming a content creator is not difficult if you do it with love for the profession.
“Being a content creator is not difficult if we think it is easy and it is also not easy if we think it is difficult,” he said.
With the presence of AMANAH, Teuku Mail is optimistic that it will be easier for Acehnese youth to develop their creativity in the creative industry, especially in the world of digital content.
“And be happy because in Aceh there is AMANAH, Acehnese Youth with Great Excellence. Join AMANAH and hone all forms of creativity,” he said.
Mail also added that the AMANAH building which will soon be inaugurated will be a home for all creative industry players in Aceh.
“Soon, the AMANAH building located in Ladong, Aceh Regency will soon be inaugurated and later the building will become a home for all creative industry players in Aceh,” he explained.
The AMANAH program, which was initiated by the State Intelligence Agency (BIN) on President Jokowi’s mandate to improve the quality of human resources in Aceh, has been in the spotlight because it has succeeded in mobilizing the potential of young people in various fields. Through AMANAH, Acehnese youth now have direct access to training, guidance and networks that support the development of their talents. With nine main development sectors, such as sports, fashion, technology, MSMEs, and modeling, AMANAH provides opportunities for Acehnese youth to hone their creativity and contribute significantly to regional progress. The inauguration of the AMANAH building is now increasingly anticipated, with high hopes that the building will become a starting point for the revival of Aceh’s creative industry and make Aceh a center of innovation and creativity in Indonesia.
