We're the family of Kagama...or alumni of Gadjah Mada University in Korea.

Dr. Pratikno happened to be visiting Seoul and since he's now a minister....Indonesian Embassy in Seoul organized a dinner rendezvous with him.

Inviting some of Indonesian students in Korea.....and well....we ended up meeting with other Gadjah Mada alumni.as well.

some of us are from Korean Department....

And....we also had a chance to take a pic of each group. Hmm...I happened to be sitting in one table with Dr. Pratikno and H.E. Mr. John A. Prasetyo..our current Ambassador to Korea.

And....of course.  . .again....we're having a great time.....

Special Lecture from H.E. Prof. Pratikno

Yup....today...our former rector of Gadjah Mada University.....who's now in President Jokowi's government cabinet...paid a visit to our campus, HUFS.

Prof. Pratikno is now a minister of state secretary of the Republic of Indonesia. Since it's his 2nd visit to our campus, we didn't want to miss the chance of having a moment with him, right?

And oh....he also delivered a thoughtful speech on Indonesia and ASEAN. 

With his wide perspective he brought on stage, we got more understanding on our gaze towards Indonesia and its role in ASEAN and particularly its relation with Korea.

OOPS...we're not ready yet.

After the program, some of us....UGM alumni who happen to be studying at HUFS and other campuses in Korea....made a good chance of taking a picture for...well....인증샷! !!!! 

But...since Prof. Pratikno was in a tight schedule....we just took a picture with our fellow friends and....surely Prof. Yang Seung yoon. 

Ok....it's been a great day.

Ok...here are more pics of what we did today.

We had pre lunch at artisse cafe in campus.
