he Guangxi Normal University (GXNU) in Guilin, China, in collaboration with the Indonesian Embassy, has opened an Indonesian Cultural Center, the fourth such center established in the Asian superpower nation.
The three other centers have been established at the Beijing Foreign Studies University (BFSU), Hebei Normal University (HNU) and Guangzhou University.
The center was inaugurated by acting Indonesian consul general in Guangzhou Gantosori Tanjung, according to a statement from the Indonesian Embassy in Beijing made available to The Jakarta Post on Thursday.
'This center has an important role in bridging friendship between Indonesia and China and facilitating cultural exchanges between the two countries,' Gantosori said in the opening ceremony on May 18, as quoted in the statement.
He added that he hoped the center could help promote Indonesian culture in China. 'Through this center, people will be able to get information about Indonesian culture, education, tourism and much other general information about Indonesia,' he said.
The establishment of the four Indonesian centers in China has been a result of collaboration between the Indonesian Embassy and the Chinese Education Ministry.(dic)
