There is a raising trend of MSMEs in Indonesia because most of Indonesia’s population has a low education level; therefore they make their living through micro enterprises, both in traditional and modern sector.

Therefore, every individual should give their best effort to support the existence and growth of MSMEs in Indonesia. As a university, we are required to meet Tridharma, which one of the obligation is community service. We are obliged not only to engage in educating the internal environment, but even more, we need to open ourselves to participate in educating the entire nation through our contribution in supporting MSMEs in Indonesia.
