The Go-Getter

Moving to a big city to pursue a career in acting as a fifteen-year-old boy was the biggest life decision so far for young actor Angga Aldi Yunanda. That period, 2015, was a year of momentum for Angga, as he became more and more passionate for the world of acting, met extraordin­ary people in the field, and started becoming the persona that he is today.

As brash as his early adventures were, Angga had the full support of his parents. “They told me that opportunit­y won’t come twice and if you’re already in it, then do it all the way,” he recalls. And that message is what kept him going and doing the very best every time he went to work. On the flip side, Angga spent much of his free time going back to his hometown in Lombok and return to his family, cherishing the simple moments of togetherne­ss he longed for whenever he’s in Jakarta.

Having establishe­d himself as a public figure, Angga doesn’t see social media as another source of pressure, but instead uses the challenge to seek out new opportunit­ies. Of course, working in the entertainm­ent industry requires him to be particular­ly smart online. To that end he uses his platform not only to promote his works and communicat­e with his fans, but also to support positive campaigns.

In the end Angga’s ultimate goal is to represent Indonesia’s film industry on the internatio­nal stage and inspire people to believe in their own potential. “Nothing’s impossible as long as we believe and persevere in what we’re doing,” said the young actor in closing.
