A total of five Filipinos actually made it through the selection process who will then receive a fully-waived program fee inclusive of free accommodation, meals, and transportation with cultural and field trips.

Melissa Claire I. Barrera of University of the Philippines Mindanao completed the country’s representatives to the Airlangga Summer Camp 2015.

This year’s theme for the said program “Creative Industry in Facing Global Challenges” aims to promote the creative industry of Indonesia with emphasis on Batik home industry, hand crafting of recycled goods, and knitted ware industry. It will also focus on the utilization of human creativity in producing widely acceptable products globally with less consumption of natural resources as well as increasing the benefits of recyclable goods.

Interactive classes, workshop visits and field trips to some Small Medium Enterprise (SME) workshops around the city of Surabaya, and a cultural trip await the participants of the Airlangga Summer Camp 2015.

Meanwhile, the countries whose delegates will be joining with the Philippines are Malaysia (6), Cambodia (5), Singapore (2), Vietnam (1), and United Kingdom (1).

  1. We know you want to live in the best apartment in the best neighborhood, but you will have to make compromises to fit your budget. Now is not the time to live outside your means and select the luxury condo on the edge of campus. Your money will be better spent elsewhere.
