The weakness of UI financial source was from Indonesia government which is only about 5.7% from the total generated annual funding of such top university. This condition is due to Indonesia regulation to promote an independency of local university from government burden.

In order to achieve the best knowledge and understanding of AS improvement and its implementations at UNPATTI, the senate leaders were divided into 2 groups as described in the main figure of this popular article.  The 1st group was sent to visit AS of UI, and another group was attached at Universitas Negeri Jakarta (UNJ). The purpose of such effective senate benchmarking visitation was actually to obtain a smart comparison between both remarkable top universities in Indonesia so that the wisdom can be wisely applied to enhance the quality of UNPATTI in the near future.
