Brigadier Tiara Nissa Zulbida’s achievement deserves special recognition as she secured a place among the top five best graduates and was the sole female foreign participant to receive this honor.

Her accomplishment is not only a personal triumph but also a milestone for the Indonesian Police force, as this is the first time a member of Polri has received the title of best graduate at TNPA.

“This is the first time that a member of the National Police has won the title of best graduate. This success is an achievement for the Police,” said Kombes Pol Harviadhi Agung Pratama, Indonesian Police Attaché in Ankara.

The graduation ceremony was attended by the Indonesian Police Attaché in Ankara, Kombes Pol (Police Grand Commissioner) Harviadhi Agung Pratama, along with the Indonesian Ambassador, who both praised the outstanding achievements of the Indonesian graduates.
