Shirley Oroh is a qualified lawyer who has worked in the legal profession as well as with many other Indonesian and international organisations giving her a great depth of experience with language and intercultural matters. Shirley is currently in the last stage of finishing her Master of Law Degree at the University of Indonesia. Her desire to continually improve her communications skills has taken her back to the books more than once and she has already graduated Cum Laude with a Masters Degree in communications at one of Indonesia’s most reputable institutions where she is now serving as a lecturer in Bachelor and Post- Graduate Programs. 

Shirley has worked as a conference interpreter for over a decade both within Indonesia and internationally. She also has worked as a communication advisor to a publicly listed foreign company operating in Indonesia and acted as a national legal specialist as well as in government and stakeholder relations. She was also a respected executive within the resources sector. She has spent the last ten years assisting people to resolve complex communication issues, a responsibility far more challenging and mission-critical than basic interpreting. 

She also worked as the Event Director for a leading-energy media company, further enhancing her skills in event management. Her latest success was establishing Bahasa Global which grew from her passion for continuing to deliver high-quality translation and interpretation services and when the need arises, act as a conduit for effective “Indonesian relations”.
