An Impressive Friendship Night for New International Students of UAD
Friendship night — all international students
Saturday-Monday, 14th-15th of September, 2013, almost 100 new international students of UAD joined a Friendship Night (Makrab) at Siung beach, Gunung Kidul, Jogjakarta. The international students come from China, Thailand, Malaysia, Philippines, Hungary, India, Uzbekistan and Japan. Taking about two hours by bus from Campus 1 UAD, the international students and staff of OIA UAD arrived at Siung beach at 4.30 p.m.
They climbed a hill then together watched the beautiful sunset. After having dinner, they made bonfire and each group in one tent showed their yell. Then, with beautiful sound of acoustic music, they roasted corn and sweet potato and enjoyed them together. What an impressive friendship night!
The next day, they played Indonesian traditional games such as egrang bambu, egrang batok, and bakiak. They also climbed the cliff. What an amazing experience! Finishing all activities, they left Siung beach with happiness and memorable experience.
“These two days are really impressive for all of us because we meet new friends and enjoy a very beautiful scenery.” said Hani, one of Chinese students.
