From Bali to Ho Chi Minh City, FH Udayana Strengthens Legal Networks in ASEAN
HO CHI MINH CITY — University cooperation is no longer just about signing documents, but about how an agreement opens up space for the exchange of ideas, knowledge, and experiences across countries. That spirit colored the steps of the Faculty of Law of Udayana University (FH Udayana) in expanding its academic network in the Southeast Asian region.On Friday, September 18, 2026, FH Udayana officially strengthened its international cooperation network through the Signing of a Cooperation Agreement with the Faculty of Law, Ton Duc Thang University (TDTU), Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. The cooperation agreement was signed directly by the Dean of the Faculty of Law of Udayana University, Prof. Dr. Putu Gede Arya Sumerta Yasa, S.H., M.Hum., and the Dean of the Faculty of Law of Ton Duc Thang University.This cooperation covers the implementation of the Tri Dharma of Higher Education, including education, research, and community service. The agreement is valid for five years, from 2026 to 2031, and serves as a foundation for the development of various academic and institutional programs between the two law faculties.Interestingly, the cooperation did not stop at the signing ceremony. Its implementation was even carried out on the same day through a guest lecture delivered by Prof. I Gusti Ngurah Parikesit Widiatedja in front of lecturers and students of the Faculty of Law of Ton Duc Thang University. For 120 minutes, the guest lecture became an academic space to bring together Indonesian and Vietnamese legal perspectives, as well as to open a dialogue regarding legal developments related to the tourism industry.The forum showed that international cooperation will have meaning when it is immediately translated into concrete academic interaction.The Dean of FH Udayana, Prof. Dr. Putu Gede Arya Sumerta Yasa, S.H., M.Hum., welcomed the establishment of this cooperation. According to him, strengthening the international network is an important part of FH Udayana's efforts to answer the demands of higher education in the global era. This step is also in line with the spirit of Udayana University as a State University.
