via Antara News, 25 June 2023: The 2023 Kenduri Swarnabhumi program launched by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Research, and Technology aims to promote Malay culture, increase environmental awareness, and preserve the Batanghari River in Jambi through activities that explore its historical significance and emphasize the importance of cultural approaches to river conservation.
The Kenduri Swarnabhumi program aims to promote Malay culture and increase public awareness about the relationship between culture and environmental conservation, especially river preservation in Jambi.
Farid said the activity is a continuation of the same program last year which sought to retrace the history and Malay civilization in the 600-year-old Batanghari drainage basin.
The program activities will take a closer look at the drainage basin history from the 7th century to the 14th century.
“The activities of Kenduri Swarnabhumi in 2022 received highly positive attention from all circles and Insya Allah (God willing), this time, it is even bigger and more interesting than last year,” Farid said.
