Visiting the Indonesian Army Base

Getting to know the Indonesian Army helps children learn how they protect the security of our country – that means they keep us safe.

Yesterday, some of YIS students got an amazing opportunity to ride on the Indonesian famous armour, Anoa! The Anoa is a 6x6 armoured personnel carrier developed by PT Pindad of Indonesia. The vehicle is named after the Anoa, which is a type of buffalo indigenous to Indonesia.

We were invited by Batalyon Infanteri Mekanis 403/Wirasada Pratista, an Army Base in Yogyakarta, to get to know what an army is and what they do. Eventually, we could ride on the Army vehicle around the base. This could be the coolest learning experience ever!
