JAKARTA - Minister of Tourism and Creative Economy, Sandiaga Uno attended the Depok Lebaran cultural festival organized by the Depok City Government (Pemkot) with the Depok People's Association (KOOD).

Interestingly, Sandiaga had studied the Betawi language of Ora Depok. He claimed to have received the Betawi language dictionary Ora Depok.

Sandiaga assessed that there was a difference between the Betawi language of Depok and Betawi in general, one of which was used by Betawi Senayan.

"There are 4,000 words in the Depok dictionary, so we will learn later because the language is Betawi Ora, not Betawi, my wife, Betawi Senayan," said Sandiaga Uno in a written statement, Monday, June 6.

Furthermore, Sandiaga assessed that the Betawi language of Ora Depok is considered to have a lot of mixed words with Javanese. There are a number of words that are the same as Javanese, such as ngalor and ngidul, and there are several native Depok languages.

"Hopefully this can become one of our own cultures," said Sandiaga.

In Depok Lebaran, Depok City MSMEs are also included with the booths that have been provided. This indirectly helped to generate the people's economy and MSMEs in Depok City.

"Economic revival has begun to be seen and Lebaran Depok also helps the economic revival," said Sandiaga.

Sandiaga explained that the provision of MSME space at the Depok Lebaran activity opened up employment and business opportunities for MSMEs. Moreover, considering the current situation, it is quite difficult with the price of basic commodities increasing. "But we believe that with hard work we can increase our turnover," he said.

Sandiaga added, Lebaran Depok also promotes the Depok City MSMEs. The Ministry of Craft asked the promotion of MSMEs not only in one activity, but also in a number of other activities, so that MSMEs can continue to rise.

"This is a stimulant step so that the economy continues to move at the grassroots," he said.
