Successful Work as a Service Manager for Indonesian Power Supply<\/h3>\n
\n

\"Hamburg-Express-Rainer-Fricke\" A Special MWM Moment of Rainer Fricke <\/strong><\/p>\n

Back in the Deutz\/MWM days, I worked as a Service Manager for all Deutz and MWM engines in Southeast Asia, Australia, Samoa (BV 640 engines), and so on.
\nI experienced my first diesel engines in Indonesia. For the first time, they were equipped with Heinzmann electronic controls, and all engines were delivered with 4 percent speed droop. However, the customer needed 0 percent, i.e. he needed the same speed in idling operation. The engines were distributed over 19 Indonesian islands. The people there needed uninterruptible power for services such as telephone, TV, and mail.<\/p>\n

Initially, a consulting meeting was held with Perusahaan Listrik Negara (PLN). This Indonesian government company’s task is to supply the Indonesian population with power.<\/p>\n

At the meeting, I had a slightly embarrassing experience. As the newly appointed Service Manager, I introduced the work meeting with the memorandum:<\/p>\n

Mr. Rainer Fricke, Manager MWM
\nMr. Suharto, Tamu, PLN
\nMr. Rudyanto, Tamu, PLN
\nMr. Wahidi, Tamu, PLN, etc.<\/p>\n

Interestingly, all Indonesian participants carried a badge reading “Tamu”. Not knowing the meaning of the word, I asked: “Are you all brothers and sisters?” My question was met with roaring laughter. The answer: “Look at your badge.” Oh, it also reads “Tamu”. It turns out the word simply means “guest” in the vernacular. The questions concerning the electronics were quickly resolved. I said: “I’m going to fly with Garuda Indonesia and trust in the pilot, and you trust in the German electronics, OK?”<\/p>\n

With the help of my laptop, I adjusted the engines on 19 islands to 0 percent speed droop. For the people there, it was strange to see a 6’2″ guy working on the engine with a laptop. Thus, every engine adjustment was a major event on site, often accompanied by a large village gathering.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
