KTI "E-Receipt" is not just an ordinary scientific paper, but also a real solution to reduce the negative impact of using paper in acceptance. By combining abundant rice bagasse and the often overlooked sugarcane bagasse, the KTI MAN 2 Gresik team has created a concept that allows businesses and institutions to switch to more environmentally friendly e-receipts

This success is a clear proof of the extraordinary ability and dedication of the KTI MAN 2 Gresik team. They not only face competitors from all over the world, but also champion sustainability and environmental values. In an exclusive communication, Cindy Elysia Elora, team leader, stated, "We are very happy with this achievement, and we hope that our innovations can help drive positive change in society."

Drs. H. Samari, MM, as the Head of MAN 2 Gresik expressed his pride for the achievements of the KTI team. "This achievement is the result of the hard work and commitment of our students. It also shows that education at MAN 2 Gresik is not only about textbooks, but also about encouraging critical thinking, innovation, and social responsibility," he said

The success of the KTI MAN 2 Gresik team at the WYIIA 2023 event is not only an achievement for their school, but also for Gresik and Indonesia in the international scientific world. They are inspiring examples for Indonesian youths who have great potential in facing global challenges with innovative solutions. (ono)
