After winning the Indonesia Extra Mile Challenge 2024, our driver, Taufiqul Ulum, went on to compete in the Extra Mile Challenge Global Final 2024 in Japan. The journey began in April and ended in October.
Taufiqul Ulum’s journey to becoming a global winner
Every year since 2014, Astra UD Truck has held an EMC competition. In 2024, PT. Cakraindo Mitra Internasional has registered two drivers from Surabaya to compete. One of them won the Indonesian competition and participated in the UD Extra Mile Challenge Global Final this October at the UD Experience Centre in UD Trucks Ageo, Japan.
It has been demonstrated that we are genuinely selective in identifying one of the keys to effective delivery based on the standards Cakraindo has for hiring drivers and the test drives that have been conducted. Speed, delivery time, fuel economy, safety, and smooth driving are all crucial factors in the competition. Taufiqul Ulum has been employed at Cakraindo for eight years. He began his employment there as a box driver before applying to drive for BII. Pursuing his field well makes him able to represent Indonesia; of course, it is very proud, not stopping there among representatives from other countries competing in the event Taufiqul Ulum remains superior.
Many people wonder why being a driver requires so many qualifications. Of course, we at PT. Cakraindo Mitra Internasional want the goods to be delivered to their destinations as soon as feasible, safely, and with zero accidents if possible. In addition to the company being proud, colleague drivers will be even more happy of themselves for being able to reach that level.
