He said that SCNU has been supporting training programs, developing curricula, training teacher teams, and endeavored to cultivate advanced Chinese-speaking talents in North Sumatra, in Indonesia since the establishment of the Asia International Friendship College (AIFC) in 2008.
Wang hoped to continue to deepen the "2+2" undergraduate joint training program and cooperate with the Cinta Budaya School and Medan Mulia School in undergraduate enrollment from high schools; to provide immersive cultural experiences for Indonesian students through cooperation in winter and summer camps, and the "Chinese Bridge" program; and to explore cooperative development of the Indonesia Dongpo College to further expand the field of educational cooperation.

Fadjar Suhendra expressed his gratitude to SCNU for sending graduate students to support and conduct overseas Chinese language education since the beginning of Chinese language education in North Sumatra. Overseas Chinese language education is now facing various challenges, therefore there should be a strong effort to train Chinese language teachers to fulfill the wish to make Chinese courses compulsory as soon as possible, said Suhendra.
He hoped that both sides would continue to cooperate and carry out a new round of cooperation and exchange in the Indonesia Dongpo College following a good example of cooperation between AIFC and SCNU. In addition, Mr. Suhendra extended an invitation to send SCNU's representatives to attend the inauguration ceremony of the college, which will be completed at the end of August next year.
