Public RelationsUPNVJ – International exchange students from Kazakh Ablai Khan University and Universiti Malaysia Pahang who are undergoing a student exchange program at UPN "Veteran" Jakarta (UPNVJ) this even semester have combined their efforts in an edu - trip program that provides cross-cultural learning with experience in-depth tour.

Accompanied by UPNVJ International Affairs Office (KUI) staff and intern students, 9 Kazakh Ablai Khan University students and 4 Universiti Malaysia Pahang students were invited to explore Taman Mini Indonesia Indah (TMII) on February 24.

TMII is a vehicle for expanding cultural insight that exists as a summary of Indonesian culture. TMII was chosen to visit because it was considered to be able to offer artistic, recreational and educational facilities for cross-cultural students.

Through this activity, it is hoped that students can broaden their insight into Indonesian culture and strengthen students' desire to choose Indonesia as a study destination.

different parts of the world have combined their efforts in an edu-trip program that combines cross-cultural learning with an immersive travel experience. This program not only provides valuable experience for participants, but also provides a platform for intercultural exchange of knowledge and understanding.

A group of students from various disciplines gathered to explore Indonesian traditional house destinations such as the traditional houses of North Sumatra, West Sumatra, DKI Jakarta, etc.

Moving on from traditional houses, students learned about one of Indonesia's icons, namely batik, by visiting the Batik Museum. A tour guide from TMII introduced various things about Batik starting from the meaning, history, types and manufacturing techniques. They also had the opportunity to see the history of the development of the Indonesian batik making process from time to time.

During their trip, the students not only enjoyed an interesting travel experience but also had the opportunity to share their experiences and knowledge with each other.

The discussions that occur between them not only cover topics such as culture but also provide new inspiration and a broader view of their role in an increasingly connected global society. (sf)
