The Indonesia Programme was privileged to host the first Indonesian Defense University's (IDU's) Study Visit to RSIS. The Study Visit took place from 22-27 August 2011.

In addition to these public venues, the IDU participants also visited SAFTI-MI and Singapore’s Ministry of Defence.

The first group of participants that participated in the program consisted of 20 IDU students and five IDU staffs. The group was a mix of 17 military officers and eight civilians. Among the IDU staff present were M.G. Sonny E.S. Prasetyo (Commandant of the Institute of National War Strategy), B.G. Makmur Supriyatno (Director of Inter-Institutional Cooperation), and B.G.
