Kuala Lumpur, January 27, 2026 – Djuanda University Bogor continues to demonstrate its commitment to strengthening academic networks and international partnerships through its participation in the ASEAN Academic & Business Association Conference (ASEANACA) Batch 6 held in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
In this event, Muhammad Kafnun Kafi, S.Pd., M.Pd., attended as a delegate representing the Islamic Education Study Program (PAI) of Djuanda University Bogor. His participation is part of the university’s internationalization efforts, particularly in expanding academic collaboration and strengthening cooperative networks across the ASEAN region.
The first day of activities focused on an international seminar and the exploration of partnerships among universities and strategic partners. The program began with an academic visit to the MARA Food Technology Incubator (INTEM), which served as an initial discussion forum regarding potential research collaboration, innovation development, and synergy between academia and industry.
Subsequently, the delegation took part in the Malaysia–Indonesia Seminar and Business Opportunity Dialogue, which brought together academics and practitioners from both countries. This forum discussed cross-sector collaboration opportunities, including the strategic role of higher education in preparing human resources who are adaptive, possess strong character, and are globally competitive.
For the Islamic Education Study Program of Djuanda University, participation in this event holds strategic value in opening opportunities for international cooperation and enriching perspectives on the development of Islamic education at the ASEAN regional level.
Muhammad Kafnun Kafi stated that his participation in ASEANACA Batch 6 provided valuable academic experience, particularly in strengthening networks and international collaboration for the Islamic Education Study Program.
“This forum serves as a space for exchanging ideas while also opening opportunities for academic cooperation relevant to the development of education, particularly Islamic Education, within the global and ASEAN contexts,” he said.
It is hoped that the outcomes of this activity can be followed up through research collaborations, the development of collaborative academic programs, and the enhancement of educational quality within the Islamic Education Study Program of Djuanda University Bogor.
