Dentists family make record

SEMARANG: A family of dentists from Surabaya, East Java, will
get their name noted in the Indonesian Museum of Records (MURI)
as the first Indonesian family to all adopt the same profession.

The Kamaludin family -- the two parents, four children and
three grandchildren -- are all dentists.

MURI director Paulus Pangka said here on Saturday that the
first generation of Kamaludins to become dentists graduated from
Airlangga University in Surabaya in 1977, while the latest just
received a degree from Trisakti University in April.

Antara also reported that Waloeyo Soeparno's family from
Semarang will also get their name in the record books as his
three children have all given him twins.

According to Paulus the two extraordinary achievements adds to
the number of MURI records registered to 585 national records.
