Gan Jinming, President of LZPU, and Ju Hongxia, Vice President of LZPU, warmly received the guests.

At the symposium, Gan Jinming extended a warm welcome to the delegations of Indonesian partner institutes and HOPU. He briefly introduced the development and construction achievements of LZPU in deepening industry-education integration. He said that LZPU, adhering to integrated development of education and industry, advocates international cooperative education, which is welcomed by overseas institutes. However, there are still problems in the cooperation, such as the enrollment scale of degree students needs to be expanded, and the quality of Chinese language teaching needs to be improved. He proposed to further integrate resources, jointly explore new modes of cooperation with Indonesian institutes, and provide an example for the cooperation between vocational colleges in China and Indonesia.

Dang Shengtao expressed a strong desire to cooperate with LZPU in running schools in Indonesia. He believes it is feasible to copy the cooperation mode of enrollment, teaching and major setting currently used between HOPU and Chinese institutes to Indonesia. He hopes to take this opportunity to explore a new mode of diversified cooperation between universities and enterprises.

In view of the current problems existing in the cooperation programs, the three parties had an in-depth discussion and put forward suggestions for cooperation in setting up a management committee, strengthening curriculum system connection and mutual recognition of courses, introducing HOPU to assist in expanding enrollment, and improving the quality of Chinese language teaching.

This visit by Indonesian institutes not only clarified the direction of the new mode of cooperation between Chinese and Indonesian institutes but also provided a platform to discuss solutions and approaches to current problems. Leaders of both institutes  have indicated that they will fully support and strengthen communication to jointly explore new paths and new modes for the development of vocational education and contribute to the cultivation of more outstanding professional talents.

Before the symposium, the delegations also visited LZPU's Engineering Practice Center, Smart Manufacturing Empowerment Center, LiuGong–LZPU Global Customer Experience Center, "Cloud Computing, Internet of Things, Big Data, and Artificial Intelligence" Experience Hall, and other training bases. Indonesian guests enthusiastically took photos and lingered at each training base. Syamsurizal Ibrahim used the word "amazing" to express his appreciation for LZPU's advanced teaching equipment and outstanding advantages of industry-education integration.
