JAKARTA - The Governor of Central Java (Central Java) Ganjar Pranowo took the time to stop by the Sasak people in Lombok during his visit to West Nusa Tenggara (NTB). On this occasion, Ganjar tried the peresean traditional art.

Peresean is the art of fighting between two men who use rattan weapons or braids and shields made of buffalo skin. Peresean is included in the Lombok regional dance art. Fighters in peresean are usually called pepadu and referees are called pakembar.

Ganjar uploaded this activity in a video with a duration of 27 seconds on his official Instagram account, @ganjarpranowo on Monday, November 22. It looks like Ganjar who is wearing a black shirt is agile to fend off blows from his opponent. Every now and then his head lowered, hiding behind a shield.

"Alhamdulillah, we can stop by our brothers in the Sasak Tribe, Lombok. The welcome is extraordinary and pleasant. Especially when Peresean invites you. You have to come here. Ok?" Ganjar wrote as reported by VOI.
