The Jakarta-Bandung High-Speed Railway Electric Multiple Unit (EMU) Educational and Cultural Exchange Base has brought a free class to Ngamprah No.3 Junior High School in Bandung, Indonesia.

Zhang Fangtao, chief designer of the Jakarta-Bandung High-Speed Railway EMU trains from CRRC Qingdao Sifang Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of CRRC Corporation Limited (CRRC) , gave a lecture on high-speed railway science at the school, explaining high-speed railway trains to local students.

Under the guidance of technical experts, more than 50 Indonesian students took the Jakarta-Bandung High-Speed Railway, experiencing a journey from Bandung's Padalarang Station to Halim Station in Jakarta. 

As the silver-red painted high-speed train slowly departed from Padalarang Station, it gradually accelerated from 0 to 180 km/h, 260 km/h, and finally reached 350 km/h, receiving a great cheer  from the students. The Indonesian teenagers listened to lectures by technical experts and enjoyed an immersive experience. One student, Saskia, exclaimed, "It's amazing! This is my first time on a high-speed train, and its speed is like lightning."

During the event, CRRC Qingdao Sifang Co., Ltd also donated educational supplies, including computers and sound systems, to the school. Additionally, the company presented a Jakarta-Bandung High-Speed Railway EMU train model to the West Java Regency, and in return, Ngamprah No. 3 Junior High School presented CRRC Qingdao Sifang with a commemorative plaque, symbolizing the friendship between the two sides. 

The Jakarta-Bandung High-Speed Railway EMU Educational and Cultural Exchange Base, established by CRRC in collaboration with Indonesian and Chinese partners, has now become a platform for educational and cultural exchange for the Indonesian public, promoting mutual understanding between the people of China and Indonesia.
