Two Balinese students represent RI at int’l conference

Two Balinese students will represent Indonesia at the International Conference of Young Scientists (ICYS) in Moscow in April next year.

The two students, Luh Laksmi Dharayanti Satria from SMAN 1 high school Singaraja and Jessica Ikhwan from SMA CHIS Denpasar, will join 11 other students selected from Indonesia at the prestigious conference.

The main aims of the conference are: to develop international postgraduate students and young scientists; to involve them in
solving current problems in science; to maintain and develop a uniform scientific and educational space; and to establish ties with future colleagues.

The conference will consist of 30 sections which reflect the main fields of modern science, including physics, mathematics, computer science and environment.

The 13 students representing Indonesia are winners of the National Young Scientists Competition.

The selected students are Arief Ridho Kusuma from SMAN 1
Samarinda and Sallie Naomi from SMP St. Laurensia junior high school in Tangerang in the physics category.

Mathematics will be represented by Michael Sunarto from SMP Chandra Kusuma in Medan and Christa Lorenzia Soesanto from SMA St. Laurensia in Tangerang.

In computer science, Indonesia will present Reza Abdurahman from SMA Taruna Nusantara-Magelang and Ganang Albryansah from SMPN 1 Bontang.

Seven students will compete in the environmental studies category. They are Dwiky Rendra Graha Subekti from SMA Theresiana 1 in Semarang; Fialdy Josua Pattirajawane from SMP Chandra Kusuma in Medan; Luthfi Mu’awan from SMAN 1 Purwareja; Jessica Lo from SMA Kristen Cita Hati in Surabaya, Christy Hong from SMA St. Laurensia, Tangerang, and the two Balinese students.

Monika Raharti, coordinator of ICYS Indonesia, said that the Indonesian delegation usually received accolades at the international young scientist forum.

“Indonesian students grabbed general awards at the 2009 ICYS in Poland,” Raharti said.

Most Indonesian students presented scientific research and works that were unique and applicable to daily lives, she said.

“I expect more Balinese students to take part in international scientific events in the future,” she added.

Bali Education office representative Made Sudana said they would find sponsors to send the two students to Russia.
