However, Boy has not detailed the number and which campuses have been exposed to terrorism and radicalism. Boy said that his party managed to uncover this through the collaboration of BNPT with campus agencies.
"Usually the campuses that we identify are based on our collaboration with the academic community, including the chancellor. But what is clear is the result of our constructive communication with several campuses," he said.
As a form of anticipation, Boy said, his party collaborated with several related campuses, one of which was Bung Karno University.
Boy said that the academic community, which is dominated by students, is a group vulnerable to radical terrorism.
"We see that the campus which is dominated by students is a vulnerable group that we need to remind. Our task is BNPT to remind all parties, build understanding, togetherness, against the ideology of terrorism," he said.
Boy hopes that this collaboration will improve the resilience of the campus community against radical understanding of terrorism.
