Click Of The Week #17: Zeynitta Gibbons

Let’s go to London and visit our journalist friend; Zeynitta Gibbons. She’s a journalist for LKBN (Lembaga Kantor Berita Nasional/ Indonesia National News Agency) Antara for Europe and United Kingdom.

Born in Solok, North Sumatera, she moved to England in the beginning of this millennium (2001), with her husband JDR Gibbons.

Her blog mainly consist of all her reports for LKBN Antara, which vary from entertainment to politics. Her latest post is about Indonesia’s investment promotion in London after the Indonesian government officially announced the new regulation on investing in Indonesia.

Zeynitta Gibbons also tries to utilize her blog as a shop window for her services. We can rent some Indonesian movies, buy original handicrafts or just order some Indonesian cuisine.

One of my colleagues said that through her blog, Zeynitta Gibbons has make an effort to acquainted Indonesian culture to foreigners in London.

“They can order a real Indonesian food to taste our local cuisine, and if they want to know more about Indonesian culture, they also can rent Gibbons Indonesian dvd-movie collection or buy handicraft. What else you could ask?”
