The education fair, organized jointly by AU and China Medical University (CMU) and the three Taiwan Education Centers in Surabaya, Jakarta and Yogyakarta, will take place from 8:00-16:00 Jakarta time.

Gunawan Budiyanto, M.P., Rector, UMY, as guests of honor to deliver speeches to the participants in the opening ceremony.
