ACICIS Mailing ListACICIS operates an email mailing list to ex-ACICIS students and other interested individuals. If you would like to be included, please contact the ACICIS secretariat acicis@murdoch.edu.au If you're on Friendster (the online networking service of choice for most Indonesians), there's also a Keluarga ACICIS group for staying in touch with past students and friends of ACICIS. Indo PostHave you seen the national Indonesian magazine in Australia that is published every month? It is called Indo Post. The Lestari Widyastuti ScholarshipLate in 2007, after the untimely death of our good friend Lestari Widyastuti there was some talk of setting up a scholarship in her name. ACICIS has been working on this idea and we are now in the process of setting up THE LESTARI WIDYASTUTI SCHOLARSHIP. We hope to raise money to endow the scholarship with sufficient funds so that the interest each year is enough to pay the tuition fees of an Indonesian student studying at UGM. Using only the interest and not the principal will ensure that the scholarship continues in perpetuity. Darmasiswa ScholarshipsDARMASISWA is a scholarship program offered to all foreign students from countries with which Indonesia has friendly relations, to study Indonesian language, arts, music and crafts as well as other courses at any universities in Indonesia. Ozmate - the Australian Alumni Network

A good level of Indonesian language is desirable. Australian Volunteers InternationalAustralian Volunteers International is always looking for competent Indonesian speakers to work on various projects in Indonesia. Pioneered more than 50 years ago by Australian Indonesianist Herb Feith, who travelled to Jakarta in 1951 to work alongside Indonesians as they dealt with the issues of independence, Australian Volunteers International is now the nation's largest and most experienced international volunteer-sending agency.
