JAKARTA - Denny Sumargo tried to provide an explanation regarding the reason he brought the sentences of the Bugis and Makassar tribes when he met Farhat Abbas in the aftermath of his comments which were considered not good.

The sentence spoken by Denny Sumargo alias Densu is Siri Na Pacce which has meaning and self-respect.

"Makassar and Bugis are brothers who prioritize self-respect and maintain honor through behavior," wrote Denny Sumargo, quoted by VOI from Instagram @sumargodenny, Friday, November 8.

He explained the reason for bringing the two tribes was because they were asked by Farhat Abbas when they had discussions at the lawyer's house.

"In my opinion, all tribes have principles that glorify self-respect and honor, because I was asked which person I answered where I came from and the principles that my ancestors taught me," he said.

Feeling challenged by Farhat Abbas, Densu finally said the sentence because he was proud of Siri Na Pacce's principle.

He also apologized if anyone was offended by his words.

"If I am not asked or challenged, I will not speak like that, I apologize if anyone is offended because I am proud of the principle of sirri na pace," he said.
