Jakarta - Iqbal Alamsyah is a creative worker in one of the advertisement agencies in Jakarta. On Sunday (12/06), Iqbal eagerly told his experience about his economic limitations in reaching his dream. Due to his economic limitations, now Iqbal lives his life by working while studying.
After graduating from school, Iqbal struggled to choose the next step. He had to accept his fate to postpone his education due to financial limitations.
“At that time, my parents could not afford my college tuition, so I had to look for a job. I faced a hard time before, but instead of doing nothing, I'd rather try to look for a job," explained Iqbal.
After months of unemployment, Iqbal finally got a job at an advertising agency in Jakarta. He feels lucky to get a job. However, he still has to give up his dream to go to college.
“When I became unemployed, it was difficult for me. I started to feel jealous of other people's achievements. Luckily, I got the job. But I still hope that I can go to college,” said Iqbal.
