In addition to attending lectures in English, he added, the students also will have the opportunity to learn Chinese language and cultures, as well as interact with other international students as they lived in the same dormitory.

"We are very grateful to the president of NUK, Prof Leon SL Wang for the opportunity and trust given to STKIP of Singkawang. Hopefully, this cooperation can continue," he added.

On the same occasion, Prof. I-Hsien Ting, Ph.D Dean, Division of International Affairs of NUK, praised the exchange students from Indonesia.
