JAKARTA - Indonesian keroncong maestro, Waldjinah, has not been seen in public for a long time. This is because he was sick and underwent intensive treatment in 2017.
Now his condition is much better even though he can't move as intensely as before. To VOI, Waldjinah admitted to being sick for one year.
"Blood deficiency. So I was injected with five ampoules,” said Waldjinah today, October 4.
At that time he was experiencing fatigue which had an effect on his body condition. Luckily, that time has passed and Waldjinah can return to greet the public.
"Now, Alhamdulillah, my mother is back, I can pray again, I can fulfill my mother's obligations," said Menil Ester Wulandari, Waldjinah's grandson.
Waldjinah's appearance also remains fresh at the age of 76 years. He expressed his desire for the younger generation to develop keroncong music.
“Eyang once taught keroncong in Malaysia. Never gave authority to generations. "If you are careless, (the keroncong) will be taken there," explained Menil.
“It belongs to us and only exists in Indonesia. There are no rattles everywhere. In Japan, where, there are no kroncong. There is only keroncong Indonesia. So we have to hurry, don't lose the chrysalis," said Waldjinah.
