JAKARTA, Oct 6 - RIA Novosti. Young people who want to become outstanding scientists and build a successful career should learn Russian, said the director of the Taruna Nusantara school, Major General Gogor, citing the words of the country's President Prabowo Subianto.

As RIA Novosti was informed by the representative office of Rossotrudnichestvo in the republic, the Russian language was included in the school curriculum for the first time in Indonesia. Pilot training began at the Taruna Nusantara school, whose graduates include representatives of the country's top government officials.

“We are grateful to Rossotrudnichestvo for its sensitivity and attention to our needs, because, as our president Prabovo Subianto has already noted, if you want to be in demand, build a career, become an outstanding scientist, learn Russian,” Gogor said.

According to him, educational projects become possible thanks to mutual understanding between Russia and Indonesia and friendship between the leaders of the two countries.

“One of the manifestations of the strategic partnership between Russia and Indonesia is the decision to include the Russian language in the curriculum of the advanced transformation schools “Garuda,” the school director emphasized.

Gogor previously served as adjutant to the President of Indonesia, and before his appointment as head of the school, he taught at the National Defense University.
