My beloved children.
Alhamdulillah, this morning we once again conducted the groundbreaking ceremony for the construction of Bina Bangsa School Nusantara, an international school that will utilize the Cambridge curriculum to enhance the quality of education for our children at the Nusantara Capital (IKN).
Bina Bangsa School Nusantara will benefit from modern facilities that promote interactive and innovative learning through the implementation of a smart school model. This approach educates students to embrace technology and apply their learning that emphasizes creativity, collaboration, and critical thinking.
The establishment of Bina Bangsa School in IKN underscores our dedication to providing diverse supporting facilities in the Nusantara Capital, including the introduction of internationally renowned educational institutions. Currently, there are seven schools under construction in the Nusantara Capital.

I encourage Bina Bangsa School to incorporate space for imparting local wisdom values, fostering respect for cultural diversity, and nurturing solidarity and unity.
