Born in 1977, a Jakarta citizen, dr. Ali Azhar finished his Medicine School at Trisakti University, Jakarta – Indonesia in 2004. Worked in a well-known medical assistance company in Jakarta just after his graduation and become a medical coordinator, a 24 hours’ work-shifts environment and directly responsible to the Medical Director. Some of the job descriptions were correspondent directly to overseas insurance companies and  gathering medical information from doctors treating foreigners who got ill and/or accident in Indonesia, not to mentioned neighbor countries like Singapore, Philippines and Thailand [most of the cases], make recommendation whether local treatment sufficient to the type of disease/accident and whether a medical transportation to the nearest medical institution was needed and accompany patient in an Emergency Medical Evacuation as Medical Escort using Private Jet/Commercial Carrier/Ground Ambulance.      

  

During the working period as Medical Coordinator, dr. Ali Azhar become a part-time investment-marketing working on commission in Foreign Exchange specialized in Expert-Advisor [EA], a software robot who can be programmed earlier and can initiate trading on its own without human interference. The creator and programmer of the EA is an Indonesian lived in Jakarta. Chosen only promote the software for foreigners through his blog only [not through local online/offline media] and only use foreign brokerage services, dozens of foreigners became his clients, "investing" ranging between US$100 account to US$50.000 account. Although some time in 2009 relieved his self from marketing the software, there is still occasional inquiry from foreigners asking for quotation of the EA directly through his mobile phone.

  

Options, a financial derivative from stock [or not] is also a familiar investment strategy dr. Ali Azhar begun to learn sometime in year 2000, that is before he even become a medical doctor. Upgrade his trading skill attending various workshops in Indonesia and Singapore later on after finished MD school. Learning Options strategies was pure curiosity, since many newspaper ads here in Indonesia promote it like "a Holy Grail" of investment. The fact is, there is always a risk, whether calculated risk or pure speculation. Never put his real money on Option, only paper trade occasionally, but has a standby Options brokerage account to start with whenever he is ready.  

Getting own website ranked very high in search engine is very handy for any business. We call it SEO [Search Engine Optimization], how to optimized website to be ranked well in a particular keyword(s). Therefore in a short notice, submitted himself in an internet boot camp studying SEO from a well-known Singaporean SEO expert. Implementing the learned technique is quite interesting, in-page and off-page optimization. Modifying the HTML code of website is sometimes confusing, especially if you don’t know what it means. During his Forex marketing campaign, dr. Ali used SEO skills to rank his blog visible in any search engine for future customer to be visited.

  

After 6 years, dedicated himself in the medical assistance company, its time to move on.

Ali learned so much about how we get old and how to prevent aging. Anti-Aging Medicine is quite popular here in Indonesia and many make things to be known as anti-aging products. While the scientific-evidence is so tiny and sometimes does not exist, people are very anxious to use the promoted anti-aging products, without knowing the ingredients and knowing short term and long term side-affect. Anyone who wants to know about a proper anti-aging knowledge and how to prevent aging, should visit dr. Ali Azhar’s blog in Anti-Aging.

Curug 7 Cilember

18 October 2008

It was Saturday Morning at 06.00 when we departed from our house in Cengkareng, Jakarta to have a refreshing family moment out of daily stressing town. We headed to Puncak, one of the famous hills in West Java to go to Curug 7 Cilember. Curug is a sundanese language, one of language available in Java Island, for waterfall.

Our destination is actually a little closer than we supposed to be headed and we finally chosen not to go to our main place firstly but to famous Tea Plantation in Gunung Mas, Puncak, just to have a brief family breakfast. Although we pretty sure that there is meal facility in Curug 7 Cilember but we had chosen to have it at the tea plantation. At 06.00 in the morning, it is not so much to be prepared at, especially breakfast. Moreover, once in a month, we usually go to this place just to have a breakfast and breathe fresh cold air, not to mention the green view along the horizon.

We arrived at 07.30 in Gunung Mas. In the cold weather, we had hot noodle with sliced chili, serabi [one of traditional Indonesian food] and hot ginger tea.







Noodle, plus sliced spicy chili.




Serabi cakes, there were 5 pieces actually, the other two have already gone to our stomach.




The Ginger Tea



....about to have breakfast.

After breathing cold fresh air, which never exists in town, we headed to our main direction, Curug 7 Cilember. It is located between the bottom of Puncak hill, or we can say in Ciawi city to the tea plantation, Gunung Mas, therefore we went downhill. From the main Puncak road, of you are from Ciawi, there is a tiny slim road heading to the facility at the left side of the road. There is a big sign saying “Curug 7 Cilember” before the tiny road so you will not miss it. The tiny road is just a few meters from “Cimory”, a famous yoghurt seller in Puncak. From our direction, the road is on the right side.

The tiny road length to the facility is approximately 2 KM. When we went there, the tiny road is not very good – bumpy road, so be prepared. 2 little car can pass in the same time, but not wide car – like Mercedes. Wide car needs to be patient as it only can pass 1 by 1 at some places along the road.

Approximately at 09.15 we arrived and here are the pictures of the facilities, Curug 7 Cilember:

*by the way, in the pictures, the date was on 17 October 2008 but the real date was 18 October 2008.

The other Curug, No. 4 to No. 1 is not in our schedule on that day because of the uphill track was very exhausting. After Curug No. 5, we call it a day and had lunch in the food huts available.
