Here are all the lies he told:
- Nelson Tansu is the youngest professor in US history
A Big Lie, he just got an ASSISTANT professor at the age of 26 years old.
There are Many young ASSISTANT Professor in the US who are younger than 26 years old.
Eric Demaine is an Assistant Professor in Computer Science at the world famous MIT at the age of 22 years old (http://web.mit.edu/newsoffice/2003/demaine-1008.html)
Alia Sabur is the world's youngest professor at the age of 19 years recognized by Guinness World record. (http://www.aliasabur.com/)
Noam Elkies become a FULL professor in Mathematics at the age of 26 at Harvard (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noam_Elkies)
Assistant professor is a position generally after receiving PhD.
Nelson Tansu is NOT a FULL professor.
You can learn about different professors here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Professor
In the US, after PhD one can become an assistant professor.Nelson Tansu only dare to claim he is the youngest Professor in Indonesia. Come on Tansu, if you are the youngest professor make a claim it in the US media, not in Indonesian media.
- Lehigh University of the world top University.
Not True. Lehigh is only ranked 500 in the world

Meanwhile other Universities from Asia are ranked in the top 50:
University of Hong Kong is ranked 23
Tokyo University is ranked 24
Kyoto University is ranked 25
National University of Singapore is ranked 31
The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology is ranked 40
Peking University is ranked 47
Osaka University is ranked 49
Seoul National University is ranked 50
How can you call Lehigh A Top University when it is ranked 500 below many Asian universities?
- Many universities in Japan aksed Nelson Tansu to return home to teach.
A big Lie. As shown above 3 of Japan's universities are ranked top 50 in the world. Why do they want to hire someone with ranked 500 below japan?
- Tansu said his Salary is over $10,000 per month
Not True. The average Assistant Professor Salary is $58,000 per year
All salary of US professor is published

- Tansu published more than 200 articles
Most articles are duplicate from conference proceedings and later published as a journal paper doubling the number. Tansu never write any paper anymore. Now he is only listed as last authors in all papers.
- Tansu has more than 1000 citations.
Most of the citations are self citations. Many research has shown Tansu manipulate citation.

- Tansu in an Interview for Lehigh University said that only 10% of Indonesian graduated High School and 1% graduated in University.
This is an understatement by a professor who don't know about Indonesia saying that the 230 million Indonesian people are stupid. The real estimate is; the number of university students in Indonesia is around 23% of the population. The current number of university students are around 4.8 million (already 2% of the population). Nelson Tansu who called himself genius, but cannot get a simple number right.
- Tansu said in the same interview that his passion is teaching and will do it even without getting paid.
If this is true, why Tansu don't teach in Indonesia for free? Do a bit of service to your country.
Nelson Tansu becomes fat now after eating too many McDonald and KFC. Showing children his famous "under the tree" haircut.
Look at my hair..
