TIF - In'sia & M'sia - some short stories

-
This is a concise story about I’nsia/M’sia's presentation at the local Trade Fair in Thessaloniki (TIF). It also includes a brief description of my personal experience at the event.

TIF Exhibition, Early 2000s:

During the early 2000s, I visited the TIF exhibition with a cousin. We had a very fruitful discussion with the Indonesian exhibitors and later communicated with a few of them via Facebook.

TIF Exhibition, 2010:

Around 2010, my wife and I were at the TIF exhibition when we encountered a small group of Indonesians in a canteen located outside one of the pavilions. We joined them for a friendly musical discussion and even sang the well known  dangdut* song "Gubuk Derita" together. This surprised the other patrons who were present in the nearby tables. 

TIF Exhibition ard 2022:

The Indonesian consulate had a booth at the TIF exhibition. This time, they collaborated with an Indonesian woman living in Thessaloniki.

TIF Exhibition 2024:

The Indonesian ambassador participated in the TIF exhibition this year in Thessaloniki. Their booth, located in pavilion number 8, showcased teak products offered through a local importer and producer. FYI on the 90s or on ealry00s I also tried to do that as a mediator to anyone interested directly from Malaysia . For unknown reasons, there was no result in this endeavour.

Long-standing Participation:

Indonesia has consistently participated in the TIF exhibition for at least 20 years, either through the embassy or through local sellers. This demonstrates their commitment to promoting trade and cultural exchange with Greece.

Additional Participation:

In 1995, Malaysia also participated in the TIF exhibition with a shared booth for 10 sellers. I had the opportunity to serve them as unofficial translator. Around 1 week of duration.

Cultural Performance:

Many years ago, I was invited to a local theatre where a group of dancers performed traditional dances from Java, including Gamelan and Sunda styles in an ex-cinema which later continues as an experimental theatre stage. Possibly before the 2k times.

 * dangdut is a former folky type music style if the 90s . More recently it is becoming as a close to house style with many other branches . If you need more info, please look here. for a visual  history

Gumus a tv series with side effects ! Aug 6, '11 10:54 PM for everyone Category: Movies Genre: Drama Gumus (Nur) a series with strong side effects !! Gumus stands for silver in Turkish , but more accurate as the “silver rays of the moon” as someone told me . As yuo may understand I mean for a Turkish TV series which has been aired in the greek TV which I can describe best as a telenovela due to similarity with the maxican TV soap operas Also someone describes with the same name : http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0441924/usercomments Before I enter into the subject let me first tell you about the facts coming from the greek TVs: At first this series is 100 episodes of 1,5 hrs each . And played in the Tuekry for 3 seasons 2005- 2007 but I have no data onhow much it gained audience .

Baraem and commentary on .... (read inside !)

BARAEM Baraem is a children TV channel more particularly for preschool children with Arabic headquarters . IN a short check today I found that this channel is indeed part of al Jazeera and is aired via the 13E Hotbird satellite We used this TVchannel in order to get rid from the possibly ‘destructive’ influence of Winx (if any ) that could be caused with the ‘magics and spells’ and now this is our daughter’s favorite  TV channel (many times she asks for Baraem ) with slightly less interest in Star the nationwide TV channel and she watches it mostly on local afternoons 8 pm ie before she goes to night sleep . This is not exactly the reason to write this article but rather  for the reason you will see at near he end of it So please be patient ! IN this channel you will not watch Sponge Bob or Dora the explorer (though the latter is quite affiliated ) but are many other series possibly more interesting than them . . Since I do nt know Arabic (I am only intending to learn the

SINPFEMO ------------- A better signal tech analysis by using F/TDM analysis drawings in specialized reports (version blogger ) Considering that SINPFEMO does not 100 % cover the truth from listeners point of view in regards to signal readability QRM and fading I have used for more than 4 years derived from more specialized monitoring equipment such as Hewlett Packard , Rohde & Shwartz etc I think however that both terms shown below are very easy to understand however there is still a little analysis behind them on how i used them so far. #1.
