Day 141 Task – Completing Peer-reviewing process of technical and scientific projects Online Form
Day 138 Task – Managing CEE’s AJEE Journal
I admit that it is not easy task to be a journal editor. I have to keep on managing, keeping track of the manuscript coming, reviewed, revised, camera ready and many more. But I appreciate this new experience and I am going to be there to grasp the challenge to make AJEE a Scopus Indexed journal. It is no easy task but so far, I can assure that we are on track to make that happen soon. InsyaAllah.
Today, I revisited the manuscripts and followed up several reviewers and authors. Hopefully everything will be a smooth journey.

Day 120 Task – Finalized New Revised Undergraduate Research Topic
Originally the students and me, we have agreed on experimental type research topic and I can say the 4 of them have already their research proposal 60-80% complete. Unfortunately, since the university is not opened to public, and we cannot go to work and the students are all at their hometown, we are urged to change the research topic to a non experimental ones. I let my students to figure out or to come out with their own topic. Unfortunately, they have no idea and it ended up I gave them the research topic, as can see below:

Day 42 Task – Panel for MKKK Proposal Disertation
I was on of the panel for the proposal defense of one MKKK Master Student, who did a research in the area of Rbdpo predictions based on some kind of statistical analysis. The defense was smooth and I gave some input based on my knowledge and experiences working in the palm oil refinery 13 years ago.

Day 39 Task – Reviewing Manuscript for BCREC Journal
I spent some time to review a manuscript assigned to me by editor from Bulletin of Chemical Reaction and Catalysis (BCREC). The review was my 15th review since I started reviewing manuscript under BCREC few years ago. It is a very interesting and amazing experience since I can read other researcher’s idea in research, especially in the same research niche as myself.
One day, perhaps somewhere this year, I intend to submit a paper in this journal myself. InsyaAllah. And one day, I hope I can be an editor for this journal.
