A WEEK IN MALANG

By: Alief Nauval

It was fabulous to stayed in a place where we can get new knowledge and  experience. Malang, it's a small town which is far enough to Palembang. People there definitely have some difference cultures with us. We were amazed with their friendly way to communicate with other people, especially with us. They accepted us happily and excitedly.

They have some difference activities with us, such as club activities, community and services, and movie night. More than thirty clubs are there, just like green community, dance club, robotic club, taekwondo, and another impressive clubs. Every Saturday, we went to some different places to have community and services. We taught some children about dance, sing, and English. Then, every month they have a movie night which will be conduct by the house incharge.

About the school, they were separated into two schools. First is the usual school that have a payment every month, second the scholarship school that same with us. However, that's not the reason for them to not have a good relationship. They have a motto that they called "Healthy, Green, Clean, Safe". Yes, they really kept their environtment clean and nice. It's proven with their green house, "kumbung jamur", and nice dragonfruit garden.

Moreover, students there really kept their respect to other people. When someone talked, another students immediately listen and appreciate him or her. They discipline were also good. They all woke up at 4.30 am, then have their breakfast, and directly prepared all the things for school. Staying there about a week was really nice and unforgottable for us, and it was amazing to have a relationship and learnt new things there.
