Community Manager
We are delighted to announce the official establishment of the Mata Garuda Cardiff Chapter, marking an exciting milestone in our organization's growth across the United Kingdom and Ireland.
Growing Our Presence in Wales
Wales has seen a steady increase in Indonesian students and professionals over recent years, particularly in Cardiff—the vibrant capital city home to several renowned universities and a thriving business community. The Cardiff chapter will serve as a hub for Indonesians in Wales, providing support, networking opportunities, and community engagement.
Meet the Leadership Team
The chapter will be led by a dedicated team of volunteers:
- Chapter Lead: Budi Santoso (Cardiff University)
- Vice Lead: Maya Putri (Cardiff Metropolitan University)
- Events Coordinator: Reza Firmansyah
- Communications: Indah Permata
Inaugural Events
The Cardiff chapter will kick off with several exciting events in the coming months, including a welcome gathering for new members, a career workshop series, and collaborative events with the broader Welsh-Indonesian community.
If you're based in Cardiff or anywhere in Wales, we warmly invite you to join our growing community. Together, we can build a supportive network that helps every member thrive.
Welcome to the family, Cardiff!
