It was on 23 Agustus 2009 that I started my wordpress blog.
I have actually started making websites eve r since December 1996 (that’s way back in the “only html” time). NOW things are much easier, and enjoyable! I am a retired petrochemical consultant and a computer (internet) hobbyist.
Most of my blogs will relate to my late father: SAM RATU LANGIE and late mother: MARIA RATULANGIE-TAMBAJONG. They were more interesting personalities than I am. But still I will have a category of my own, in which I will write those silly things that just flashes through my mind.
I will also occasionally make use of the Indonesian language, my mother tongue, and I will try to minimize the use of the (fastly developing) Jakarta slang.
Today I could not resist to UPDATE this posting which was perhaps more than 10 years old with details that are more according my current situation ………Therefore I will add below a little rather shaky video clip that I have shot just now ( 2 July 2022 1.23 pm) …
SORRY….I have been working.. since 3 (three) hours, just trying to insert a video clip right here but only have these results……
WORK in PROGRESS….. using WordPress editting..
I have two “HOMES”: the first is in Jakarta. Here I live in Pondok Indah (South Jakarta) since 2007………
But I have another HOME in Manado you want to see it instead than using WordPress it is BETTER when you use my WIX page and click here.
Anyway I thank God that He kept me in a relative healthy condition.
Jakarta, July 2nd 2022.

Hallo Tante Lani,
Senang sekali bisa membaca postingan yang senantiasa di link dengan milis SBN, sehingga setiap ada postingan baru selalu update. Juga pemilihan wordpress sebagai rumah dari blog ini sangatlah tepat karena saat ini hampir seluruh akses internet dari kantor-kantor menutup akses ke rumah-rumah blog kecuali wordpress ini. Mungkin saja karena tidak banyak yang menggunakannya untuk menempatkan konten-konten yang dihindari oleh korporasi-korporasi seperti pa torang pe kantor.
Walaupun dapat dikatakan lanjut usia namun produktivitas Tante Lani sangat luar biasa, sangat jarang Bosamiérs yang rajin menulis blog dan mempublikasinya dengan baik karena kualitasnya terjamin. Di Bosamiérs sebenarnya ada juga yang cukup produktif yang menulis blog, bahkan dia cukup dikenal diantara bloggers kompasiana, yaitu Alm. Eva Rindu Mahaganti. Namun dia sudah dimuliakan Tuhan pada tanggal 17 Agustus 2011 yang lalu, karena kena kanker di otaknya. Juga postingannya di SBN sangat kualitatif dan senantiasa mengangkat topik-topik yang baik untuk didiskusikan.
Berkarya terus Tante Lani, dan blog ini akan menjadi referensi penting tentang Sam Ratu Langie dan sepak terjangnya dalam kancah perjuangan kemerdekaan Indonesia. God Bless You
Selamat pagi!
Tadi baru balas comment Anda mengenai danau Masarang, skarang kita mo balas mnegenai yang ini. Terima kasih juga so mo singgah di kita pe web yang ini.
Memang dengan blogging dan linking ke SBN buat saya sangat bermanfaat sebab saya masih dapat merasakan denyut jantung “anak2” sulut bosami, lengkap dengan uneg2 mereka, perjuangan mereka untuk eksis dlsb2. Lagipula jumlah kunjungan di web menigkat……. dan itu beking senang aku. Bung Charles sukses terus dan tabea dari T. Lani
Bravo!

Good Evening, Ma’am. My name is Arnold. I’m interested in doing some research for our (Indonesian) Heroes and for the purpose of my final project from Visual Com Design of Petra Christian University.
I humbly ask you, as the descendant of Dr. Sam Ratulangi, to allow me to have a chat/interview with you via video call ASAP, so I can gather as much authentic data as possible.
If you are willing to accept my request, please contact me via my email as well if you aren’t willing to accept. But I really hope that you want to accept my request to go on an interview.
Thank You, Ma’am
Sincere
Arnold
Hello Arnoldus Yuvens. Thank you for your interest in my fathers life and ideals. I think that the best thing to do is to reach me through my email lani.ratulangi@gmail.com Bye bye.
