JEMBER, East Java: Five hundred and sixty five students from
the state University of Jember will receive scholarships from the
Asian Development Bank (ADB) in the new academic year, a
university spokesman said.

He said 38 students would each receive Rp 1.2 million per
semester, 115 students Rp 1.07 million per semester, and 412
students Rp 717,000 per semester from the scholarship fund, Imam
Soebagio was quoted as saying by Antara.

The scheme would ease the financial burden on the students and
reduce the number of students who will be forced to drop out of
their studies due to the economic crisis, he added.
