Bima Muslih Wicaksono, a student of class 2022, was successfully elected as the Chairperson of the Committee for the Archipelago Cultural Meeting (TBN) of the Association of Regional Language and Literature Students throughout Indonesia (Imbasadi). This election was carried out in the TBN preparation meeting, which was held online on Saturday, (27/01/2024).
The TBN preparation meeting was not only attended by Imbasadi student members but also involved representatives from the Javanese Language, Literature, and Culture Student Association (HMJ Kamastawa), as well as several study program alumnus who are also alumnus of Imbasadi. Discussions during the meeting not only included the election of the committee chairman but also discussed plans for the future implementation of TBN XXX.
Temu Budaya Nusantara is Imbasadi's annual agenda, which is usually held in November or December. The event includes various activities, such as the National Deliberation, demission, and re-organization of Imbasadi administrators. In addition, there are also supporting activities, including the National Cultural Performance and Scientific Writing Competition (LKTI).
The agreement of the National Conference (Munas) of Imbasadi's XXIXth Nusantara Cultural Gathering at the State Hindu University I Gusti Bagus Sugriwa, Bangli campus (08/11/2023), stipulated that the UGM Javanese Language, Literature, and Culture Study Program will host the TBN-XXX in 2024. The appointment of UGM as the host of TBN-XXX shows UGM's active involvement in studying, introducing, and preserving Indonesian regional culture to a wide audience. This step is in line with the fourth mission of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which is to improve the quality of education for the people of Indonesia.
With the election of Bima Muslih Wicaksono as Chairman of the Committee, it is expected that the TBN-XXX Imbasadi activities can be held successfully and make a positive contribution to preserving and developing Indonesian culture. Support and prayers from various parties are expected to contribute to the success of this prestigious event, which will be held in the near future.
