Rachel Allessya Rose, a student at Universitas Jakarta Internasional (UNIJI), has once again brought immense pride to the university by making history at the 2025 Australian Open. Teaming up with Febi Setianingrum, Rachel clinched the women’s doubles title after an exciting match against fellow Indonesians Febriana Dwipuji Kusuma/Meilysa Trias Puspitasari. The match concluded 18-21, 21-19, 23-21 at Sydney Olympic Park, Australia, on November 23, 2025.

This victory is a significant milestone for Rachel, marking her first Super 500 title since partnering with Febi in September 2025. In a fierce and emotional battle, both players showcased incredible fighting spirit, turning the match around after losing the opening game. Their determination and teamwork were crucial in securing this prestigious title, contributing to Indonesia’s overall championship win at the 2025 Australian Open (tvOneNews, 2025; Kompas, 2025).

In a statement released by PBSI, Rachel expressed heartfelt gratitude and joy for this achievement.

“Praise God we could win. We managed to prove the results of our training and effort since we were paired. We’re definitely happy to earn this title—for ourselves and for each other as partners. We were really emotional after winning. We kept trailing in points and were under pressure, but we didn’t give up and turned it around in the end. It shows that in any situation, we always have the chance to become champions. I couldn’t hold back my tears earlier. From now on, we want to maintain our performance, keep learning, and improve even more to reach the top level,” said Rachel with a bright smile.

This remarkable achievement brings immense pride to the entire UNIJI community. As the university’s brand ambassador, Rachel stands not only as a symbol of athletic excellence but also as a true example of how discipline, perseverance, and resilience can lead to international success. Congratulations to Rachel Allessya Rose on an inspiring victory that uplifts fellow students and all Indonesians!

On Wednesday, November 19, 2025, the University of Jakarta International (UNJI) took a big step toward helping Indonesia become more financially savvy. With Dr. Liana Rahardja, the Head of the Accounting Program and Director of Research at UNJI, joining the AMKI Forum (Asosiasi Media Keuangan Indonesia) called “Pemberantasan Penipuan Transaksi Keuangan,” UNJI showed that it’s at the forefront of creating a society where everyone knows how to handle money in the digital world.

Dr. Liana pointed out how quickly digital fraud is growing and why it’s so important for everyone to learn about money in a way that’s easy to understand and use. She especially mentioned that young people, especially Generation Z, are key to teaching everyone how to be safer with money and understand the risks of online buying and selling, a skill that’s super important in today’s fast-paced digital world.

Dr. Liana’s involvement really highlights UNJI’s dedication to connecting academic knowledge with practical financial skills. Her contribution showed UNJI’s strong commitment to supporting national financial literacy programs and helping create a generation that’s responsible and well-informed. The event also had some really interesting speakers, like Rudy Agus Pramono Raharjo (Head of the Consumer Protection Department, OJK) and Nanik Ramini (Head of the Electronic Transaction Complaint Service Team, Ministry of Communication and Informatics), which sparked important conversations between education, regulation, and industry.

UNJI Accounting students were super involved in the forum, getting firsthand insights from industry experts about digital financial fraud trends and how to prevent them. They were also encouraged to use digital tools like cekrekening.id, which helped them understand the importance of keeping personal information and financial data safe. This experience was a fantastic learning opportunity that really complements what they learn in class with a look at the regulatory and practical sides of finance.

Dr. Liana pointed out that financial literacy should be more than just a theory, it should be something that people can use in real life, helping them make smart choices and protect themselves in the growing digital financial world. Her message really reflects UNJI’s bigger goal: to train graduates who are not only smart but also socially responsible and financially aware.

This initiative is a real turning point for UNJI, showing how the university is growing in its role in promoting financial inclusion and encouraging teamwork across different areas. Through initiatives like the AMKI Forum, UNJI keeps empowering Indonesian youth to become adaptable leaders who are ready to tackle global challenges in the digital economy.

Universitas Jakarta Internasional (UNIJI) students have achieved another remarkable milestone! This time, the spotlight is on Dwiyaning Aprillia Putri, a Communication & Public Relations student, who proudly brought home three medals from the Indonesia Open Aquatic Championship 2025, held on November 18, 2025.

Dwiyaning competed against some of the best swimmers in the country and delivered an impressive performance, earning:

Silver medal in the 1500-meter freestyle
Bronze medal in the 800-meter freestyle
Bronze medal in the 400-meter freestyle

Her extraordinary results showcase her dedication, persistence, and strong discipline in balancing academic excellence with competitive sports. Dwiyaning’s determination demonstrates that hard work and consistency can lead to outstanding achievements beyond the classroom. In her message to UNIJI’s, Dwiyaning expressed gratitude and joy for her success;

“It was quite a tough competition, but I tried to make it enjoyable. I just swam like I usually do in practice and gave it my all. I’m happy with the results,” she said with a bright smile.

This achievement highlights UNIJI’s commitment to nurturing well-rounded students individuals who excel not only academically but also in athletics and personal development. The UNIJI family proudly celebrates Dwiyaning’s success, which serves as an inspiration for other students to pursue their passions and achieve greatness in their own fields.

Congratulations to Dwiyaning Aprillia Putri for this outstanding accomplishment! May this victory be a stepping stone to even greater success, bringing honor to both Indonesia and UNIJI.
