Diky is a long time Mozilla contributor. Initially contributing as a Firefox Student ambassador, he took an active role mobilizing the local community in Jawa Tengah region, through campaign like FoxYeah, and general meetups. He has also contributed a lot during Webmaker app tour in Purwokerto, Salatiga, as well as the main event in Jakarta. His contribution has resulted in a strong community presence in Jawa Tengah at that time. Diky is part of the team that works on TealinuxOS, and he traveled to London to tell people about it at MozFest.
Right now, apart from being a Mozilla Tech Speaker, he’s mostly involved in stewarding the community space in Jakarta. But not only that, having a technical background and strong open source culture, he has also become a representative that bridge the local developer community to collaborate with the Mozilla Indonesia Community.

In which in this weekend, we’re going to host a hackathon to introduce this project to the public and to also doing bug fixing together and make general improvement for the project.

How did we help him as a Rep
As a Mozilla Rep, we always motivate him (and everyone else in the community) to keep contributing to whatever topic or whatever way he like the most. We also encourage him to seek collaboration with the other open source/technical community out there to have a bigger impact.
