A total of 17 Uniszastudents were sent to the Pasar Baru Trade Center, Bandung recently to help them understand the manufacturing process and the interdependent nature of the business world.

Through Icon, they learn how to deal with the marketing and the management in business networks from the local suppliers of clothing, food textile, and handicraft products.

This programme is welcomed and encouraged by the Embassy of Malaysia in Jakarta and Education Malaysia Indonesia (EMI), an official representative of Malaysia’s Higher Education Ministry. - BERNAMA
