THE JAKARTA POST


Photojournalists


My name is Alex E.N. Lumi

I was born December 15, 1934

I'm the oldest photojournalist in The Jakarta Post

Now, my base is State Palace

I go everywhere with Mr. President, this is what I really like

Sometime Presidential Guard yell at me...And I slept with pig !

What an experience...


My name is Arief Hidayat

I was born in Bojonegoro - East Java, May 5, 1955

I work as photojournalist since April 1988

For me, covered Atlanta Olympic, USA 1996, is the most beautiful

experience in my life

And I'm not happy when someone said that I'm not a 'journalist'

Now, I'm Deputy Editor for Photo Department The Jakarta Post

There were fun experience like; covered Irian Jaya (West Papua) people and

Dayak in Kalimantan (Borneo), and soldier at front line...

Once, I got sick, when I'm in the middle Irian Jaya jungle


My name is Gusti Bayu

I was born in Jakarta, Pebruary 5, 1970

I've been working for The Jakarta Post for 4 years

Between 'lucky' and 'bravery' I'm doing photography as my job and 'fun'

But, I don't think it wise to do photography without ethic...

The only one award for me, as photojournalist, is come back to the office safely and publish the photograph !

I was born in Jakarta, September 16, 1969

I'm start working in The Jakarta Post since 1995

I like travelling and making photographs about everything...and I'm

happy when my friends like the photographs

Sometime I have to cover the riot, like in May 1998 and other, it feels great !

I have so many friend from the poor 'til the have

But, oneday I accept bad treatment from someone...it's o.k.

My job is for waiting something happen, and I've been waiting for a long time, but 'til deadline it's

nothing...

Once, demonstrater mad of me...I don't know why?

Risk, I think it's a part of my job, I fell from someone roof, when I cover the fire...
