Litty Mora, CIE's Argentina Representative, said: "We congratulate these students for gaining such outstanding results. They should be proud to have gained qualifications that will help provide a solid foundation for them in the coming years."

Each prize winner received a certificate of achievement and a book token.

Students, principals and proud parents from across Indonesia will join together in Jakarta to celebrate top performances in the June 2007 IGCSE examination session.
