Science Olympiad lacks publicity

Science Olympiad lacks publicity

From Republika

The International Science Olympiad for junior high school
levels is underway in Indonesia from Dec. 5 to Dec. 14. This is
indeed an important event and has great long-term benefit.

Scientific and technological capability and advancement will
obviously enhance a nation's welfare, and this also applies to
Indonesia. Sadly, this program has received inadequate media
coverage so that the public has not been properly informed.

I hope that the event will be highlighted by TV stations and
newspapers and through interviews with Indonesian student
participants, the organizing committee and other relevant
parties.

In this way, our students, teachers and schools will be
further encouraged to pay greater attention to the promotion of
subjects of science and technology for the future of nation.
