Cultural program for students

JAKARTA (JP):A total of 1,500 students, from 22 high schools in South Jakarta, participated in a one-day cultural appreciation program at the Bulungan Sports Hall yesterday.

Secretary of the South Jakarta administration, Abdul Mukti, who opened the program on behalf of the South Jakarta Mayor, said he fully endorsed the program.

"The program is quite commendable and should continue to be held on a regular basis. I believe such a program may be very helpful in preventing students from brawling on the streets, and engaging in other delinquent behavior," he said.(bas)
