Farewell Dinner

 
Together with the other abroad students from Ghana and India, we exchange dishes. We even make a quick percentage to explain our lovely food. Then we pray together, thank to God for the food.

We really appreciate the differencies in cultural, religious and skin. I also believe that diversity problem in Indonesia can be cured by increasing awareness that we do different, but to be united we must accept and respect those differences.

Philippines with k to 12 is designed to provide holistic education for all Filipino s...
