i am interested in this opportunity in order to achieve my dreams in my career but the question is ,why is this scholarship limited only to INDONESIAN CITIZENS? at least African countries too should also benefit,because most of us in Africa are poor and need such opportunities, especially Cameroonians like me. thank for understanding.

Dear Esibe Carine,
Every scholarships are given with specific purpose. We agree with you that many African students are also deserve the same right in pursuing scholarship. Beside this, there are many other scholarships that are offered for African students. One of them is Scholarships for African American Students 2009-10, Rochester Institute of Technology. Please find the detail in this website.
Thank you
Best of luck,
