Bogor Regency - Bogor Regent Rudy Susmanto has designated Urug Village in Urug Sukajaya Village, Bogor Regency, West Java as a heritage area or cultural heritage.
"We have set several points as heritage areas, including Kampung Urug which is a traditional village. We want to really protect what is the legacy of our predecessor, both in the form of objects and local wisdom of the people," said Rudy in Cibinong, Thursday.
He emphasized that the determination of heritage areas is not only symbolic, but will be accompanied by concrete steps from the government to support cultural conservation programs in Urug Village.
This includes the development of supporting infrastructure and the promotion of cultural wealth to the national to international level.
"What we are using today is the typical patterned batik in Urug Village. This is not only a matter of symbols, but our real commitment to maintaining and developing cultural heritage in order to stay alive and known to the outside world. Bogor Regency has a big culture that must be maintained and inherited," he explained.
The determination of Kampung Urug as a heritage area is also in line with the development of the Kewedaan Pendopo in Jasinga. According to Rudy, this is part of the local government's comprehensive efforts to revive local values and restore the smile of the people of Urug Village.
"We want to make culture one of the pillars of development. By preserving culture, we not only preserve history, but also create a future rooted in the strong identity of the Bogor people," said Rudy.
He ensured that the Bogor Regency Government would continue to cooperate with traditional leaders, local artists, and academics to ensure that the development of heritage areas was carried out inclusively and sustainably, and to continue to side with local communities. (KR-MFS)
