IBS Students mark cultural day

Students from the PNG Institute of Business Studies on Saturday successfully delivered a very colourful and vibrant cultural day.

The IBS SEED cultural day as it’s called, is the final activity under the SEED program which the institution has undertaken this year. 
The Students Enhanced Experience Day program, according to Student Representative Council President Joseph Haugie, was put together by a lecturer from the Southern Cross University, Australia, and runs through both semesters of the year with various activities. 
“This is the last SEED activity of the year and we’re very fortunate it is a cultural event,” Haugie said. 
He added that the program was organised entirely by the students and has been a success. 
“The students have gone very far to actually produce a good show. What’s unique is that the students took the initiative to raise funds because our own fundraising for SRC, we don’t have enough,” Haugie added. 
He said this is the second cultural show following one last year, held at the 11 mile IBS campus located a few miles outside Port Moresby. 
“Here, we can cater for more people and I’m very pleased to say that we had a good attendance and people behaving appropriately.” 
The show featured cultural performance by students from at least 15 provinces in PNG, a few international performances from India and the crowning of IBS Traditional King and Queen.
