Hi, Fikomers!
Every year on February 9th, we celebrate National Press Day (HPN) as a form of appreciation for the role of the press in society, the nation, and the state. The press plays a crucial role in delivering accurate and educational information while also raising public awareness about various emerging issues.
In today’s digital era, journalism faces increasingly complex challenges. Misinformation and hoaxes spread easily, making the press’s role in providing fact-based news even more essential. Press freedom is not just about the right to report news but also about the responsibility to present accurate, balanced, and non-misleading information.
National Press Day 2025 serves as a moment of reflection for media professionals in Indonesia to continue growing and becoming more professional. As a pillar of democracy, the press plays a key role in maintaining transparency, overseeing public policies, and serving as a platform for various public aspirations.
Let’s support high-quality, independent, and responsible journalism for a better future for our nation. With a strong and professional press, we can build a more informed and critical society in responding to various pieces of information.
Happy National Press Day 2025! May Indonesia’s press continue to progress and remain at the forefront of truth and accountability.

Gong Xi Fa Cai! 🏮🎊
Hi Fikomers! The Isra Mi’raj event is one of the most significant moments in Islamic history, filled with profound spiritual meaning and valuable lessons. On this miraculous night, Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) undertook an extraordinary journey from Masjid al-Haram in Mecca to Masjid al-Aqsa in Jerusalem, followed by an ascension to Sidrat al-Muntaha to meet directly with Allah Almighty.
During this event, Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) received the command for Muslims to perform the five daily prayers. Prayer is not only a form of worship but also a spiritual bridge connecting humans with the Creator—a time for reflection, gratitude, and seeking guidance.
Isra Mi’raj offers a deep message for Muslims to continuously improve the quality of their worship and fulfill Allah’s commands with full awareness. This journey reminds us that, despite life’s challenges, there is always a path to Allah’s pleasure for those who are patient and steadfast.
Additionally, this moment serves as a reminder of the importance of maintaining a strong relationship with Allah through prayer and increasing piety in daily life. By understanding the meaning behind Isra Mi’raj, we are encouraged to be more grateful for the blessings of faith and to strive for a better life.
Isra Mi’raj can inspire us to:
Let us celebrate Isra Mi’raj 1446 H with gratitude and reflection. Use this moment as a turning point to strengthen our relationship with Allah Almighty and with fellow human beings. May the spirit of Isra Mi’raj continue to inspire us to become more pious individuals and bring blessings to every step we take.
Happy Isra Mi’raj 1446 H, Fikomers. May we always be under the protection and grace of Allah Almighty.
Innalillahi wa inna ilaihi raji’un.
We extend our deepest condolences on the passing of Muhammad Izza Madras, a student of the Communication Science Program, Class of 2021, on Thursday, January 23, 2025.
The entire academic community of the Faculty of Communication Sciences, Universitas Gunadarma, deeply mourns this loss. May the late Muhammad Izza Madras be accepted by Allah SWT, may all his sins be forgiven, and may Allah SWT grant strength and patience to the bereaved family. Aamiin.
We, the academic community of the Faculty of Communication Sciences, Universitas Gunadarma, extend our congratulations and best wishes to Dr. Olly Aurora, S.I.Kom., M.M., a lecturer in the Bachelor of Communication Science Program at Universitas Gunadarma, for successfully earning her Doctorate in Economics from Universitas Gunadarma with the distinction of Cum Laude.
She successfully defended her dissertation entitled:
“Post-Recovery Satisfaction Model for Service Failure and Its Implications on Repurchase Intention and Positive Word of Mouth (WOM) in Indonesian Marketplaces.”
This research presents a new perspective on service recovery strategies within the context of Indonesian marketplaces. Dr. Olly Aurora thoroughly explored how elements of justice—including distributive, procedural, interactional, and informational justice—play a critical role in building customer satisfaction after service recovery.
Furthermore, this study highlights the significant impact of post-recovery satisfaction on repurchase intention and the spread of positive Word of Mouth (WOM). These findings not only make valuable contributions to the academic world but also provide relevant strategic insights for business practitioners in enhancing service quality and fostering stronger customer relationships.
May the knowledge derived from this research bring extensive benefits, not only to academia but also to the advancement of the business and economic sectors in Indonesia.
Once again, congratulations to Dr. Olly Aurora on her outstanding achievement!

December 22: A Moment to Honor the Love and Sacrifices of Incredible Indonesian Mothers
Hi Fikomers!
Mother’s Day, celebrated on December 22, 2024, is a special occasion to honor the love, sacrifices, and strength of remarkable women across Indonesia. This year’s theme, “Women Greet, Women Empowered, Towards a Golden Indonesia 2045,” serves as a reminder of the vital role women play in shaping a bright and prosperous future for our nation.
Mother’s Day is not only about celebrating a mother’s role within the family but also about recognizing women as the backbone of society. Mothers are patient and loving educators of the nation’s future generations. Beyond their familial roles, Indonesian women continue to demonstrate their capacity as leaders, change-makers, and contributors to development in various fields, including economics, education, and politics.
The theme, “Women Greet, Women Empowered, Towards a Golden Indonesia 2045,” calls on us to support the empowerment of women. As Indonesia prepares to celebrate a century of independence, empowering women is envisioned as a crucial pillar in realizing the vision of a Golden Indonesia. Through equal education, inclusive job opportunities, and appreciation for their contributions, women can drive the nation forward.
Celebrating Mother’s Day can be done in simple or grand ways. Here are a few ideas to honor your mother or any woman you admire:
As the younger generation, we bear a significant responsibility to continue supporting women in their journey to thrive and empower others. Equal access to education, technology, and inclusive environments are keys to creating equal opportunities for women. With the right support, Indonesian women can continue to make substantial contributions to national progress.
As we move towards the vision of Golden Indonesia 2045, Indonesian women are expected to inspire future generations. They are at the forefront, balancing family responsibilities and showcasing resilient leadership in a dynamic global landscape.
Let us honor the love and sacrifices of mothers by expressing our appreciation, prayers, and heartfelt gratitude. Be a generation that supports women’s empowerment in various fields for the progress of our nation. Happy Mother’s Day to all the incredible women of Indonesia!
Happy Mother’s Day to all the amazing women who continue to inspire!
