Newly appointed Indonesian ambassador to Denmark Bomer Pasaribu said one of the first things he would try to accomplish in his new post was to promote cooperation between Indonesian and Danish universities.
"During the first year of my assignment I would like to bring about cooperative links between at least two Indonesian and two Danish universities," said the former manpower and transmigration minister here Wednesday,
He said he would try to sponsor the establishment of cooperation between two yet to be selected Indonesian universities with the University of Copenhagen and Aarhus University.

"I still have to conduct an intensive search for two Indonesian universities which I can promote for the cooperation with the Danish institutions," Bomer said.
Bomer said the cooperation could consist of exchange of professors and scholarships.
Besides promoting cooperation in the field of education, Bomer said he would also implement other programs during his first year as ambassador.
Under the other programs he would encourage and facilitate nine central government agencies and six regional government agencies plus legislative and business institutions to cooperate with counterparts in Scandinavian countries, especially Denmark and Lithuania.
"I intend also to promote cooperation between the Ministry of Transportation in Denmark and the Ministry of Transportation in Indonesia," Bomer said.
In addition, Bomer wanted to promote Indonesian tourism by holding fairs and art performances in Scandinavian countries.
"I would like to support the Indonesian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (Kadin) in staging exhibitions there."
He was also planning to encourage the establishment of sister- ties between Indonesian and Danish cities.

"Regardless of all of the obstacles that I may meet, I want everything to be implemented immediately. I am a type of person who likes to do things quickly. I don`t want to waste any single minute," said Bomer.
He said he would be missing Indonesian seafood the most once he assumes his new duties on January 19, 2012.
Professor Bomer Pasaribu was sworn in as Indonesian ambassador to Denmark by President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono last December 24 together with 25 other persons appointed as ambassadors to foreign countries.
