“I had the pleasure of working with Kasiyanto during my fieldwork in Batam and Rempang, where he accompanied me to interviews and provided translation support from Bahasa Indonesia to English. His professionalism stood out—not only did he translate words accurately, but he also conveyed the cultural and contextual nuances with great clarity. His contributions went far beyond language; he enriched the entire research process, and I learned a great deal from working with him. It was truly a pleasure to collaborate with someone so dedicated, insightful, and professional.”
