Iskandar has also been involved in a number of Indonesian language projects in Australia, working as an interpreter and translating for both radio and television. His pocket book, Essential Indonesian Phrasebook, was published by Periplus Singapore in 2002. Recently Iskandarworked with IHPCP (an AusAid HIV/AIDS project) as a Provincial Adviser for Sexual Transmission and Gender in the Indonesian province of Papua, where he helped produce multi-media productions for sexual health promotion using the local languages.

For his talk he used the title "Edutainment Program for HIV Prevention in Papua" - meaning that the education program had to be entertaining if it was to succeed.

He thanked our Club for a donation that helped start up a library.

He reminded us of the Vision, Mission, and Programs that he had told us about last time he visited as a speaker on March 11 this year.
