The delegation was welcomed by members of student organizations at YSU in the Theater Room of the Museum of Indonesian Education. In this meeting, they presented profiles of the organizations they take part. Following the presentations was a discussion session.

In this discussion, the participants shared their experiences in students’ activities. One of them was their social movement. It got them to speak out their aspirations for political issues in the two countries.
