BALIKPAPAN - Dedik Purnomo was determined to swim in the sea in Balikpapan, East Kalimantan (Kaltim) to go to Java. Dedik swam with two gallons and wood tied to his body.

"It happened yesterday that he swam from Semayang Port," said Balikpapan BPBD member Hendro Susanto when contacted by VOI, Thursday, December 17.

This young man was determined to swim from Semayang Harbor, Balikpapan. About 300 meters away, this young man was rescued by fishermen as well as Polairud officers.

"He uses gallons with wood. But the wind is strong at sea, "said Hendro.
