Yogyakarta (15/3) – The Short Mobility Program, conducted by the International Program of Government Affairs and Administration at the University of Muhammadiyah Yogyakarta (IGOV UMY) in collaboration with the School of Government of Universiti Utara Malaysia (SOG UUM), has officially ended. This program lasted seven days at UUM and five days at UMY. The program initiated by the two universities has been completed smoothly and has had many positive impacts for the two universities.
After five days in Yogyakarta, Indonesia, the UUM SOG had to return to Malaysia to continue their studies. IGOV UMY wanted to ensure SOG UUM returned safely and comfortably; therefore, we delivered them to Yogyakarta International Airport (YIA) using three cars for students and lecturers and one car for goods. UUM students and lecturers will depart from YIA to Kuala Lumpur on Wednesday, March 15, 2023, at 17.00 WIB. IGOV escorted Dr. Syahrir and 12 UUM School of Government students, accompanied by two IGOV staff, Adibah Dhivani Gusmi, S.IP., and Nurul Izzah Aulia.
Before returning to Malaysia, one of the SOG UUM students, Lim Yean Fong, bought a bale of Indonesian brewed tea with the Tjatoet brand. She really liked Indonesian brewed tea, so she purchased a bale. When interviewed by the IGOV Team before leaving, Lim said that “Indonesian tea is very different from tea in Malaysia; it is tastier and thicker. In Malaysia, we usually use tea bags if we want to drink tea, but it doesn’t taste as good as Indonesian brewed tea,” said Lim (FLT).
