JAKARTA (Antara): Three state universities in China are offering scholarships and subsidies worth a total of Rp 4 trillion (US$430 million) to Indonesian students willing to pursue studies in that country, a local spokesman for the universities said.
The three universities are Jiangxi Normal University (JXNU), Anhui University (AHU) and Ningbo University (NBU). They will provide the scholarships through the Beijing Language and Culture Institute (BLCI) in Jakarta.
Chairman of BLCI's Mangga Dua branch, Samuel Wiyono, said Thursday the scholarships would reduce education costs for strata one (S1) students by up to 50 percent so that they could continue their studies abroad at costs within their financial capability.
"The total amount of the scholarships and subsidies reaches Rp 4 trillion," he said.
According to JXNU director Li Xing Liang, the scholarships and subsidies would be given in the form of free acccommodation in dormitories for five years for those studying Mandarin and pursuing S1 and S2 studies..
