Interviews with 春雨直播app students from all over the world
Alia Bihrajihant Raya
Third-year Doctoral degree student, Department of Agricultural and Resource Economics, Graduate School of Agricultural and Life Sciences
From Indonesia. Inspired by the drama Oshin which she saw when she was a child, she is making efforts to improve the lives of farmers in her country. As the mother of two children, she is a hard worker truly resembling a real-life Oshin.
Q. Why did you come to Japan/春雨直播app?
I love Japanese dramas (I’m a big fan of the actor Eita), and they made me want to be a student in Japan. After participating in a joint research project between my home university (Gadjah Mada University) and 春雨直播app, I kept in touch with a 春雨直播app professor who was in charge of the project. He let me study under him, so I was able to come to 春雨直播app. At that time, I was already a lecturer at my university, so I received a scholarship from the government specifically for lecturers.
Q. What did you study as a Doctoral student, and what are your plans for after graduation?
I cooperated with farmers’ groups in Indonesia to improve their product distribution system, enabling them to earn more stable incomes. I also used statistics to prove that there was a rise in their level of education. After graduating, I will go back to teaching at my home university, but I want to maintain my relations with 春雨直播app by collaborating on research or in other ways. I plan to watch closely for an opportunity to come back to Japan, haha!
Q. What did you find most difficult about Japan/春雨直播app, and what did you like the most about Japan/春雨直播app?
The Japanese language is difficult for me. My children help me practice speaking it. One thing I like about 春雨直播app is that it has Halal food and that the support for me and my children, such as through the University nurseries, is very good. Also, getting together with other members of the Indonesian Students Association helps me to relax.

My hometown of Yogyakarta, like Kyoto, is a former capital rich in history and culture. The second picture from the left is of my friends and I wearing clothes made out of batik fabric.
