Brilio.net - The lives of Tengku Firmansyah and Cindy Fatikasari after moving to Canada, far from the glitter of the entertainment industry, have attracted public attention. In the past, he was known as a hit actor in Indonesia. His face often moves back and forth on the screen.
But now, the 46-year-old is living a very different life in Canada. Together with his family, he started a new chapter in his life by working as an iron welder.
It is known that Firman works at Edmonton Exchanger, a manufacturing and maintenance company that has been established since 1975. This company is known to specialize in manufacturing ship components and machining services.
Through social media, Cindy Fatikasari's husband often shares his experiences working in a field that perhaps not many people imagine. In his latest upload, he talks about the big challenges he faces at work.
In his story, Firman revealed that the work he was involved in was quite difficult, even making some of his co-workers give up. Of the nine people who joined a month ago, now only six people remain. Some of his colleagues who had just joined even gave up after only five hours of work.
" Seniors say that this job is not for everyone. In the name of Allah, please guide me so that I can be strong and smooth in the future, amen, " he wrote, quoted from Instagram @tengku_firmansyah.

Choosing to pursue the profession of metal welder, who would have thought that Firman actually had a flashy educational track record. He took pilot education to fulfill his dream of becoming a pilot.
Syaira Anataya's father is a graduate of Phoenix Aviation School, United States. He was even able to graduate in 9 months and was declared capable of flying a plane.
With this background, it is not surprising that netizens are asking why the actor didn't become a pilot. Even though Firman himself already holds a flight license.
"Uncle, why don't you just continue taking CPL, Uncle, don't you already have PPL?" asked one netizen in the comments column.
As is known, in the world of aviation, there are two main types of licenses, namely Private Pilot License (PPL) and Commercial Pilot License (CPL). PPL is a basic license that allows a person to fly an aircraft privately, usually for non-commercial purposes. Meanwhile, CPL is a higher license, which is required to fly aircraft commercially and earn income from this work.
Responding to this question, Tengku Firmansyah also gave a quite surprising explanation. He explained that even though he had a CPL from the FAA (Federal Aviation Administration), he chose not to pursue a career as a pilot. The reason is that there are several requirements that must be met, such as obtaining a new license that is recognized by the Canadian aviation authority.
Even so, it seems that Firman has a main reason that is more personal and touching. Who would have thought, the actor just doesn't want to be far away and wants to always be close to his family.
"I already have a CPL FAA but I have to get another Canadian license if I want to fly here. But if you become a pilot you will often be separated from your family, you want to see each other every day," replied Tengku Firmansyah.

The profession as a pilot often requires a person to travel long distances and spend a lot of time outside the home. This is what made Tengku Firmansyah choose to work as an iron welder, a job that allows him to be near his family every day.
This decision may not be easy for everyone to understand, but for Tengku Firmansyah it was the best choice he could make. This life choice has made many people applaud and inspired him to put family as the main priority in life.
