Amelita expressed her gratitude for the appreciation from the judges of the Jambore PR Indonesia. “This event is very meaningful for public relations people, because we can learn from each other public relations from state-owned enterprise, ministries, and the private sector. The challenges in the world of public relations in the future will be even more dynamic, especially as a result of advances in information and communication technology (ICT) as it is today. We have to be adaptive,” he said.

The founder who is also the CEO of PR Indonesia, Asmono Wikan, considers that currently PR practitioners are able to articulate their position in various communication programs in their respective corporations/institutions/institutions. According to Asmono, who is also a member of the Press Council, without understanding the position and function, a publicist cannot face the challenges ahead.

This Jambore PR 2022 award category is given to PR INDONESIA Rookie Stars 2022, ICON PR INDONESIA 2022, PR INDONESIA People 2022, and PR INDONESIA Fellowship Program 2022. The selection and judging process before the jury has been carried out since the end of October 2022.
