The 30th National Student Scientific Week 2017 that runs at Universitas Muslim Indonesia, Makassar was opened officially by Prof. Intan Ahmad, Ph.D, Director General for Learning and Student Affairs in the Ministry of Research, Technology and Higher Education on Wednesday (23/8).

"To meet that goal, we ought to produce good research, innovation, and things that drive the economy.The young generation needs to love scientific matters, knowledge, and research. This needs to be instilled since at young age,” she said.

"Those all will be better with the hard work of the young generation, which is the essence of education, not just doing things for yourselves, but also contributing to the nation. The Student Scientific Week is indeed a way for Indonesia to manifest better,” she said.

Prof. Dr. Achmad Gani, SE, MSI, event chairman of Pimnas 2017, said the event was followed by as many as 89 universities across Indonesia both state and private ones with the total number of 1845 students and 420 officials.

"There are 420 titles to be competed in the seven categories,” he added.

The Governor, Syahrul Yasin Limpo, welcomed the 30th National Student Scientific Week in Makassar. In his views, it is not just a competition, but commitment of the young generation in responding to challenges. It is a form of the country, students and universities’ determination to make Indonesia better, advanced, and independent.

"Thank you to have South Sulawesi hold the event, this is obviously an honour for us. Through the Pimnas, we see how the young generation try to respond to state and world challenges,” he said.
