The exhibition area reached 4000 square meters, and involved more than 300 participating companies and more than 3000 exhibition booths. Ahsan and his team made several preparations for the exhibition.

Ahsan felt very lucky to be able to represent PT Agroland Karya Utama as well as an ambassador from the Faculty of Economics Unsoed to take part in the international arena.  "We get a very broad relationship, especially from fellow business people to the heads of companies and new knowledge during activities and have the opportunity to establish new cooperation with both companies and government," he said.

Faza added that the motivation for participating in the exhibition activities included wanting to improve product quality through the knowledge we gained and also wanting to make coconut and areca nut the main commodity with high economic value so that it can prosper farmers and the surrounding community.

Language barriers were experienced by Ahsan and Faza because Mandarin is quite difficult to understand. And many local people who do not understand English.

Ahsan hopes that IETP can continue so that the benefits of this program can be felt by more students.
