Background
Kang Guru Indonesia (KGI), formerly known as Kang Guru Radio English
(KGRE), has been funded by AusAID since it began in 1989. The program
assists people with mid-elementary to pre-intermediate levels of English
to improve their skills in English communication. The program also promotes
knowledge and understanding of Australia, including information on Australia's
development cooperation program with Indonesia.

- A weekly 20 minute radio program broadcast in over 150 Radio Republik
Indonesia (RRI) stations and a range of private, local government and
community/school-based radio stations
- A quarterly Kang Guru magazine distributed to 35,000 registered listeners
of the radio program and educational institutions
- An interactive website, including the KGI Forum page
- Teacher Development Activities - free teacher workshops, supplementary
teaching materials, ideas, advice and support
