As the event neared its end, reflections from Mr. Evgeny Blinov, a professor from Tyumen State University, Russia, shared insightful reflections on language policy. He found it particularly enlightening to learn about the diverse languages in Indonesia, their interactions, and the stat e’s efforts towards protecting minor languages. His perspective on Indonesia’s potential was encapsulated in his words, “I think Indonesia will find its own place in this new global world. I hope this world will be much more plural. It will not be centered only on Europe and North America.”<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
