Being an Indonesian in Mae Fah Luang University, Thailand

Luckily, in this year, i joined with AIMS schoolarship program, such as schoolarship for exchange student. I came to Mae Fah Luang University (MFU), Chiang Rai, Thailand in Food Technology major, School of Agro-Industry and stayed there around four and half months. What a short time for enjoying all the wonderful  things happened there;)

In my opinion, Indonesia and Thailand have a good relationship, especially in MFU. Do you believe if I say in MFU Library has Indonesian Corner? Yap, Indonesian Corner! It’s such as a room that has a lot of things and information about Indonesia. I always feel like in Indonesia when I stayed there. There are traditional clothes, legend book with English and Thai language, brochures and pamphlets about recreation place in Indonesia, Indonesia-English dictionary, history book about Indonesia, Borobudur, Bali, and many more. There were brochures about university in Indonesia also. There are furnishes like “wayang golek, ondel-ondel, angklung, batik map”. We always use that room for meeting, praying, studying, or even watching movie together. In MFU library, there was no another room as special as Indonesian Corner for another country. It was amazed us as Indonesian students ;)
