Recently, BINUS International hosted a noteworthy guest lecture by the Ambassador of Peru to Indonesia. This distinguished visit facilitated a dynamic interchange of intellectual discourse and cultural appreciation, profoundly impacting the institution’s students and faculty. The event was structured around two central themes: an exploration of the intricacies of international trade and an introduction to the rich tapestry of Peruvian cuisine, thereby providing the attendees with a comprehensive global experience.
A Glimpse Into Peru’s International Trade
The ambassador’s discourse on international trade was insightful and engaging, shedding light on the subject’s multifaceted nature. His lecture touched upon the rapid evolution of global markets, the transformative role of technology in formulating trade policies, and the strategic adaptations countries like Peru undertake in response to these changes.
Through his anecdotes and real-world examples, he encouraged the students to cultivate a more expansive view of international commerce and its inherent challenges. This exposure was pivotal in enabling BINUS International students to relate their theoretical knowledge to practical international scenarios, enriching their educational experience.
A Taste of Peruvian Delicacy
In addition to the intellectual discourse, the ambassador also offered a delightful cultural experience by sharing the exquisite tastes of Peru. The event featured two emblematic dishes from the Peruvian culinary tradition: Ceviche and Tallarines a la Huancaina. The freshness and zest of the marinated fish in the ceviche and the complex flavors of the spicy pasta dish presented a compelling representation of the country’s gastronomic diversity.
