Atta Halilintar Educates to Stop Bullying, Reminds Students About a Dismal Future

Atta believes that bullying, whether verbal or physical, will have long-term effects on the perpetrator. He warns students that bad habits cultivated since school will be difficult to eliminate and can hinder future success. "And for sure, to the kids in school, I also say, there's nothing cool about bullying your friends. It's the same as you being madesu (a bleak future), I say," he stated firmly in front of the students.

The man who turns 29 this year wants the younger generation to focus more on productive and innovative things. Instead of spending energy insulting others, Atta suggests that students work harder to explore their potential, especially in mastering technology that will be very much needed in the future.

The teaching activities at this school left a profound impression on the eldest son of the Gen Halilintar family. Atta feels that this experience is very valuable, especially since he is currently educating his own children at home. He believes that interacting with the students helps him prepare for the future of his children.

"Yes, maybe because I already have children too. So I’m facing a lot of questions from my child now. So at school... when I meet them, I think my child will be like this when they grow up," Atta explained about his reflections as a father.

Atta's presence at the school was actually at the invitation of a close friend who owns the foundation. Despite having a very busy work schedule, Atta made time to attend in order to make a positive impact on his surroundings.

He acknowledges that the knowledge he possesses may not be much, but he hopes the spark of motivation he provides can be a valuable asset for the students. Atta wants children to have a great and strong mentality in facing ridicule from their surroundings.

With his relaxed yet substantial speaking style, Atta successfully captured the attention of the students, who seemed very enthusiastic about listening to his story. This educational activity is hoped to reduce the incidence of violence in schools and create a more harmonious learning environment for all students.
