Muhammad Afif Ridwan Youth Activist
The Government is not supportive of youth activities

Muhammad Afif Ridwan, 21, always feels upset when he sees people his own age acting apathetically and refusing to contribute in development activities. As project leader of the annual conference Future Leaders Summit (FLS), Afif plans to persuade youths to find useful activity. "We want to create a youth leader," said Afif, a technical engineering graduate of Diponegoro University in Semarang, Central Java.

The Future Leaders Summit has been hosted by Diponegoro University since 2011. When it met last May, the participants focused on six issues: education, environment, human rights, arts and culture, information technology and social media. The entire 240 participants came from all parts of Indonesia.
