UMY Visits the Consulate of the Republic of Indonesia in Songkhla to Discuss on Education
In pursuit of a successful internationalization, Universitas Muhammadiyah Yogyakarta (UMY) has undertaken diverse initiatives to implement its internationalization program, including visits to foreign universities and institutions. In continuation of the UMY visitation series to Thailand this January, all the UMY delegates visit the Consulate of the Republic of Indonesia in Songkhla, Kingdom of Thailand.
Head of Mission of the Consulate of the Republic of Indonesia in Songkhla, the Kingdom of Thailand Suargana Pringganu and Social and Cultural Affair Staff Adul Meatam warmly greeted the delegation from UMY. The discussion then followed, resulting in the collaboration’s preparation for the setting up of an Edu Fair with Indonesian universities in October or November. Furthermore, it relates to the discussion regarding the Southern Border Provinces Administrative Center, which UMY has successfully implemented before.
UMY anticipated that the discussions at the Consulate of the Republic of Indonesia in Songkhla would be fruitful and result in an actual result that could positively impact the quality of education in both Indonesia and Thailand. Aside from that, the Consulate of the Republic of Indonesia in Songkhla could serve as a support system and a link between universities in Indonesia and Thailand.
