“KATAGONIA is a real workplace, not a place like in campus. so maybe the contribution is that after the students study at the English literature study program they get provisions. So later they can contribute … one of them is becoming a document translator or translator at events.” said Mr. Fedro Iswandi.
Then, Mr.Fedro Iswandi also explained the extent to which students can contribute to the company.
