DESCRIPTION OF GOALS AND VISITS 1. THAILAND
The area of Thailand is 513,120 km2. The population in Thailand is around 67,741,401 people. Geographically, Thailand is located at the coordinates of 15 00 N, 100 00 E while astronomically the State of Thailand is located between 50 LU - 210 LS and 970 BT - 1060 BT. This astronomical position causes Thailand to have a tropical climate. There are three seasons in Thailand (except in the south), namely winter, summer, and the rainy season.
Winter starts from November to February. Geographically, Thailand is located at the coordinates of 15 00 N, 100 00 E while astronomically the State of Thailand is located between 50 LU - 210 LS and 970 BT - 1060 BT. Summer starts from March to May. The rainy season starts from June to October.
Thailand is the only country in Southeast Asia that was not colonized by Europeans Thailand has a constitutional monarchy government system, a system of government similar to a monarchy that is established under a constitutional system by recognizing the King, Queen or Emperor as head of state.
While in Thailand (02-05 April 2019), 2017 IPIEF students visit several places:
1.Wat Arun, locally known as Wat Chaeng, is situated on the west (Thonburi) bank of the Chao Phraya River. It is easily one of the most stunning temples in Bangkok, not only because of its riverside location, but also because the design is very different to the other temples you can visit in Bangkok. Wat Arun (or temple of the dawn) is partly made up of colourfully decorated spires and stands majestically over the water. Wat Arun is almost directly opposite Wat Pho, so it is very easy to get to. From Sapphan Taksin boat pier you can take a river boat that stops at pier 8. From here a small shuttle boat takes you from one side of the river to the other for only 3 baht. Entry to the temple is 100 baht. The temple is open daily from 08:30 to 17:30.

2. Meeting with PPI-Thailand (Permitha)
The first management of the Indonesian Student Association in Thailand (Permitha) was formed in early 2002. In previous times Permitha only existed in universities, especially
in the ASIAN INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY where the Indonesian student community has almost always been around since the 1970s. Along with the increasing number of Indonesian students who are assigned to study at other universities in Thailand (especially master and doctoral levels), then an organization is considered necessary to accommodate all Indonesian students in Thailand. In 2000 Prof. Ir. Budiono Mismail., MSEE, Ph.D as the education attache of the Indonesian Embassy in Bangkok (Period 2000-2004), made an activity, which the committee was representatives of various Universities, as many as 5 people consisting of AIT 3 people, Mahidol University 1 person and University Thammasat 1 person. These five people were formed by the education and cultural attaché of the Indonesian Embassy in Bangkok to become a motorbike for joining Indonesian student associations in Thailand. Prof. Budiono also suggested to students at AIT, that the name Permitha be used for all universities. If there is a desire to keep mentioning the name of the Higher Education then the rules for adding the name of the university are used after the name Permitha, for example Permitha-Mahidol University.
IPIEF students had the opportunity to meet with several Permitha administrators on April 3, 2019, when they invited IPIEF 2017 students to have dinner together, after that the brothers permitted to share about how life was in Thailand, how it felt to study in Thailand, and of course brother- Permitha's brother also gave us how to get a scholarship to study in Thailand. Of course this is an experience and opens the horizons of 2017 IPIEF students about lectures in other countries.
