pasirputih Came to the Residents

On February 7th, 2016, around 14.00 WITA, some members of pasirputih (Etika Lailaturahman, Hamdani, Muhammad Imran and Muhammad Sibawaihi) came into the local residents to distribute information about Bangsal Menggawe 2016: Membasaq. They distribute two hundreds sheets of comic strip contained the socialisation of the event. This action was aiming to remind the local residents early on, that there will be a folk festival of Pemenang on February 28th, 2016, at Bangsal Harbor.

A few days before, we had distributed the reproductions of the comic as well, but it was only for a specific people, such as students at schools where the artists execute their project. This time, pasirputih tried to come down onto the small alleys to meet people in front ot their houses, in berugaq, or in the shops. We came to some backwoods in City Pemenang area, such as Karang Desa, Karang Gelebeg, Karang Bedil and Karang Baru. We will come to other backwoods in the next day.

The people whom we met gave good response toward this socialisation. In fact, some of them had been knowing the information from their children who got the information at the school. These responses gave a new spirit for pasirputi and we sure that the Bangsal Menggawe 2016: Membasaq will attract everybody in Pemenang. We actually want this even can involve all of the citizens of the subdistrict, not only as a viewer, but also an owner and active contributor in realizing a new history for Pemenang.
