The seminars were held to encourage local students to study in Japan as part of the “Study in Japan Global Network Project (ASEAN),” with which Okayama University has been entrusted by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology. On September 16, we paid a courtesy call before the seminar to the faculty members responsible for international cooperation at IPB University. With a local faculty member who earned a doctoral degree in Japan participating in the meeting, we had an active exchange of views on studying in Japan.

Moreover, representing of the Embassy of Japan in Indonesia, Yusuke Takahashi, First Secretary, and Britantia Juliant participated in the event and gave a presentation regarding the Japanese Government (MEXT) Scholarships.
