Currently interning at Penerbit Erlangga
Hi, I’m Abisha — an IR and media researcher academically, and multidisciplinary creative professionally.
I like to research how media interacts with us. I also like to make communicative visual pieces through graphics, photography, and videography. Currently based in Semarang.
About Me
Hi! I am a 21 year old guy from Semarang in Indonesia. I am Javanese and I come from an Islamic background, but I am personally agnostic to a degree with interests in learning about other religions and their theologies. My family came from a political background so I am very focal about my beliefs. Politically I align with the Nordic Left and Democratic Socialism. My pronouns are he/him/his and I am a very open straight ally to all identities. I have been diagnosed formally for ADHD and I am seeking a medical diagnosis for Autism Spectrum Disorder at the moment. I am currently working on my thesis on how white supremacy can radicalise Indonesian Youth and lead to terrorism. All while also interning as a marketing communications assistant at PT. Penerbit Erlangga. I am always learning and I am motivated by my belief that a better world is possible.
I am a hard working person, I live to work and try to make the lives of myself and other better. I’ll always strive to do my best in everything. I live on a can-do attitude for any creative endeavour, it brought me to where I am today where I am able to be quite the jack of all trades in graphic design and social media work. I want to use media in a way that talks and teaches, hence why I am academically studying the intersections of politics, international relations, and media studies. I am always open to doing research or creative work for you, hit me up!

Don’t feed into their delusions. Let them get to their senses themselves. Lately I’ve been seeing more and more people who voted for the winning second candidate in last year’s general election here in Indonesia along with a few 01 voters saying that the hate towards the 02 voters are overplayed. Saying the cancel culture
The authoritarian free lunch program a la Indonesia It’s January 6th 2025, kids and teens everywhere in Indonesia return to school. One thing is different this time around though. With the finite wisdom of the 58%, these kids shall have free lunches. A brave step towards a more welfare oriented Indonesia. Parents everywhere cheer as
