Followed by recitations to wait for the dawn prayer time. After completion of the dawn prayer in congregation at 05:30 pm we went to Bandung by bus. Travelling around approximately 3 hours. We all were divided into 6 groups. The first group was sent down near Pasteur toll gate. The next group in the ITB. The third group was revealed in Suropati bridge. And the fourth group was a group of us unloaded in Gedung Sate.

When we first derived scurrying for the mosque, and the mosque is a mosque which is located nearby in the geology building. Close to the building satay and Gazibu field. In this mosque we pray Duha and also that we will use as a shelter for the night. After completing the Duha prayer around 09.30 we set up a strategy to trade. And the first activity that we do is repositioning. Buy merchandise from the original vendors then sell them to consumers in different places and at different rates, so that we can take the margin of the goods. Finally we decided to buy the sweet iced tea and iced orange for Rp 2,000 / cup as much as 10 cups. After getting the stuff we brought it to the field gasibu. This is where many people exercise that we perceive as the right segment. We apply this method repeatedly until well into the mid day prayer time, and turnover managed which we collect is Rp 186,000.

After the mid day prayer in congregation finished we decided to take a break at the mosque until 14:30. Our activities continue again after the Asr prayer at 16.00. we break the members of the group into 3 teams. The first team looking for a nearby market to shop for ingredients that are on the market and resold around the field gasibu, both repeat sate.tim building activities in the morning. And the third team offers services to restaurant and café as short-time worker / part time. Short stories in the afternoon and evening we managed to collect a turnover of Rp 36,000. because of rain in the afternoon and evening it also has drained our physical rest at 22:00 in the mosque.

The second day we start with the dawn prayer in congregation, after dawn we set back a strategy in order to successfully achieve the target turnover. Activities that we did on the second day a little different than the first day. The first and second teams are more likely to sell services in the restaurant and café. While the first team are responsible for transportation to Jakarta. At 07.00 we were split up according to the team and each job description. The first team to find info about the type bus, rute, price, and the scheduled departure time. The first place in the contact between the city is a travel agent, because the travel price is too high, the air first team over a Leuwi Panjang terminal. After getting the info and price negotiation agreement. Finally the first team back again in a meeting at Gefung Sate at 11:00.
