Indonesian Ambassador to Kenya in Nairobi, M. Hery Saripudin signed a Memorandum of Understanding on cooperation in the education sector with Rector of Semarang State University (UNNES), Fathur Rokhman on March 4, 2021. The Indonesian Embassy in Nairobi makes efforts to facilitate cooperation between UNNES and universities in providing scholarships. Ambassador M. Hery Saripudi in his statement said that this cooperation is part of the efforts of the Indonesian Embassy in Nairobi to improve educational diplomacy and strengthen relations between Indonesia and countries in the working areas of the Indonesian Embassy in Nairobi, namely Kenya, Uganda, Somalia and the Democratic Republic of Congo. Providing scholarships for outstanding students in the working areas of the Indonesian Embassy in Nairobi is one of the points of cooperation in the memorandum of understanding. The Ambassador hopes that by bringing foreign students to Indonesia, it is hoped that there will be many alumni who love Indonesia and are willing to help Indonesia's interests abroad.

Indonesian representatives abroad always maintain close relations with their accredited countries, including representatives of accredited countries that overshadow Indonesia. The Indonesian Embassy in Bucharest met the Consul of the Romanian Embassy in Jakarta to improve personal relations between the two parties on March 4. An informal approach is considered very necessary to facilitate various affairs that support diplomatic efforts of both sides. During the meeting, both sides discussed various matters, including the issue of consular services at the Romanian Embassy and the process of applying for Romanian scholarships for Indonesian students which is currently underway. It is hoped that the Romanian Embassy can facilitate visa processing for all Indonesian citizens, including business people who wish to visit Romania in the future.
