We have often been informed that the “Indonesianization of management” policy which was pursued by TBI with cut-throat abandon in 2010 and 2011 has not been the glowing success that Ashley, Mariam and Luke envisaged. In fact, in the last 3 and a half years, TBI has seen 2 schools close permanently- TBI Semarang and…
Yesterday we featured an interesting post from a former TBI Bekasi teacher. (See yesterday’s post). In it he mentioned that some people are concerned about this blog because they feel our true agenda is to close down TBI.

In the scene a Russian Mafia boss places a gun in the hand of a man he wants dead and tells him to…
Last night I interviewed a highly-placed source at MCE, the joint venture which was the dominant partner of the TBI Malang-MCE pairing. In the coming days we will offer fresh insights and information into why TBI has been kicked off the premises at their own school, TBI Malang. We will also offer insights into how…
With the closing of TBI Malang, Luke Preece has brought TBI into unprecedented disgrace. The JV partner had invested hundreds of millions of rupiah in the project and the decision to break their venture with TBI cannot have been taken lightly. It is a sign of how utterly Preece has dragged the TBI name through…
In the latest of a remarkable series of ongoing events from TBI Malang, Luke Preece’s mata (spy, mole, plant) has been fired by TBI’s Joint Venture (JV) partner in the city. Niah has been ordered out of the building and told not to come back. Niah had been moved to TBI Malang by Luke Preece…
