JAKARTA: Second Deputy Higher Education, Science and Technology Minister Stella Christie has come in for public criticism after hosting a tip-sharing session on getting into foreign universities, a move seen by many as inappropriate given that she should be focused more on improving the quality of universities at home.
The newly established ministry streamed through its official YouTube channel on Tuesday a one and a half hour long video in which Stella, a Harvard graduate and also a professor at Tsinghua University in China, presented dozens of slides containing advice on how to study abroad.
