Bayu : Anneke, did you receive an invitation to attend OSIS meeting tomorrow?

Bayu : It is. So, it will be the third poster-making contest. I believe it will be similar to the previous
ones, in spite of using different themes. In my opinion, it isn’t interesting.

Anneke : Personally, I have a similar thought. So, what’s your idea?

Bayu : Well, the previous contests were exclusively addressed for students in our school. I think it is
the time to extend the contest.

Anneke : What do you mean?

Bayu : I mean, let’s make the contest open for students from any schools and even for public. If we
do it, the contest will be more competitive.
Anneke : Personally, I don’t think it’s a good idea. It will cost much, you know, to advertise the
contest and provide prizes for the winners, and I don’t think we can afford it.

Bayu : Well, we can look for sponsorship. At the moment, many individuals or institutions
concern about education. We only need to make a good proposal.

interesting and up to date.
