Indonesian Ambassador enjoys Library visit
![]() |
The Indonesian Ambassador, His Excellency Mr Arizal Effendi
described his visit to the National Library on 7 September as a great
pleasure. Accompanied by Mr Wahdi Yudhi of the Embassys Cultural
Section, the Ambassador had discussions with the Director-General, Jan
Fullerton and other staff, before touring the building. Mr Effendi was
particularly interested in a display of Indonesian publications, which
included a microfiche copy of the book Demikianlah Australia
(Such is Australia) by his father Arif Effendi, the noted journalist
who came to this country on a Colombo Plan scholarship in the early
1950s. The Ambassador has a strong interest in books and libraries as
does Mr Yudhi, who uses the National Library regularly. |
