During the month of December ETA Said Haji was asked to be interviewed by a few students from the English department of Lambung Mangkurat University.

The students approached Said through a simple Instagram direct message, and from there they met up at a local cafe to conduct the interview

Topics ranged from politics in Indonesia, education, infrastructure, religion, and culture. There were two sets of interviews and ETA Said shared his perspective as a native speaker, and outsider on some of these hot topics. Said was also able to share his perspective on these same topics in the United States as a source for comparison, but with context. Not only was he able to shed light on advancements in the US, but he was also able to speak to all the amazing accomplishments Indonesia has recently had. This is one of Said’s first interviews and it was an overall interesting experience.

Said Haji is currently teaching at SMAN 7 Banjarmasin, South Kalimantan.
