On the occasion, Moriaty also expressed his great appreciation to NU for being capable of taking part, especially in dealing with various problems facing grassroots-level community.
"NU has a long and proud history, and Australia does appreciate it," Moriaty said, adding that he also understood tradition and belief systems having so far been both maintained and preserved by NU followers (Nahdliyin), including how the religious social organization protects the poor.
Meanwhile, Avianto Muhtadi said the collaboration could be done through purposeful programs like understanding different culture, learning social life, mitigating disaster risks, increasing both quality and capacity of Islamic schools.
"Governance, strengthening democracy through election monitoring, voter education, and people-to-people or cultural exchanges likely became serious issues," Avianto said. (bil)
