NASI GORENG UNTUK OBAMA
Coming soon in the middle of March, my newest novel to welcome President visiting to Jakarta-Indonesia (20-22 March 2010).
President Obama has excited Indonesians around the country, just as it has people around the world. But for many people here, Obama's personal connections to this diverse country bring special meaning, such as his first-hand experiences with Islam and knowledge of Indonesian culture. More than once President Obama has said he misses the country's signature dish, nasi goreng, or fried rice.
NASI Goreng, who doesn’t know with nasi goreng? One of Indonesian delicacies that use rice as raw material. Everybody loves nasi goreng. Even Mr. President Barack Obama.
SUAEB BIN NGATMO, a poor young man who leaves his hometown to Jakarta to get job. Suaeb wants to collect money as much as he can get to continue his higher study. But unfortunately, Jakarta is not beautiful as he imagined. Get job in Jakarta is not easy. But Suaeb never stop to dream.
Nasi Goreng has made Suaeb meet with the first man in US, as well brings him to his dream. Hows the dramatic meeting between Suaeb and Mr. President?
Some facts in this simple idea of novel make it’s not only a fiction. You’ll get a lot of information that may be you’ve not known yet, e.g.; Obama’s favorite food is cheese burger with Dijon mustard and French fries, John Favreau is an important guy behind Obama’s speech, etc.
There are funny, touched, and some that will make you smile. And the most important is these 420 pages of novel teaches and inspires the readers how to reach their dreams without limitations. Even it’s only your impossible dreams.
"Indonesians have a genuine affection for Barack Obama, and Risma's story
captures that quite nicely. I think the former Jakarta resident, now U.S.
president, will enjoy reading this book himself."
- Dalton Tanonaka, Metro TV news anchor
