Dhia Fairus Shabrina, or Ade, a 4th grader at SD Muhammadiyah 4 Pucang, Surabaya, won a silver medal at International Mathematics Contestunion 2011 in Singapore. She set aside the other participants from Korea, Malaysia, Singapore, India, Philippine, Thailand, China and Hong Kong. "A total of 18 questions were tested in English, but for me there is no difficulty to do of that," said the daughter of Hery Abiyoso and Endang Irawati Sidotopo. She explained, from the beginning she had to beat the other participants from all over Indonesia. Then, the selection tests held in Bogor rounded up 60 students. Then the chosen top 30 were sent to Singapore. "18 questions were 1 exploration problem, 1 description problem, then 8 multiple choices and 8 essays," explained Ade. Ade track record turns out to be a repeat of her success in the year 2010. But in a similar tournament in 2010, Ade successfully won a gold medal. "It's a really nice achievement for us and the school. And we will maintain and encourage other students to be able to perform like Ade," said M Sholihin, Principal of SD Muhammadiyah 4 Surabaya.
