There are stories of science and technology because Muhammadiyah also has quite good intellectual traditions," said Ganjar after giving a speech at the opening of the Muhammadiyah Youth Rapimwil III at Muhammadiyah University. Semarang (Unimus), Friday 25 August.

Ganjar explained that intellectual traditions in science and technology are evidenced by the many schools and universities advanced from Muhammadiyah. His vision is also good for the nation and state.

"It must be a scientific movement and real work. No less important is to provide enlightenment to other youths. Muhammadiyah youth can become a group for social control," said Ganjar Pranowo.

Ganjar then gave an illustration of how many creative young people are emerging today. They gather according to the common vision, for example in the research field, then gamers group, and there is also good content creators.

"That's what today is certainly being discussed in the congress. Later, a new management will be formed and we hope that the next program will really be a program that can anticipate the needs of young people in the future."
