JAKARTA - Two men who took photos in the style of nudists in Suryakancana Square, Mount Gede Pangrango National Park (TNGGP), West Java with the initials E and BR apologized.
Both apologies were conveyed via video recordings on social media and aimed at the people of West Java and Indonesian mountain climbers.
"We apologize to those who do not please and do not like my posts and E on our personal Instagram, especially for the people of West Java and also for Indonesian climbing friends," they said in a two-minute video on their @prau_mountain Instagram account, Saturday, October 24. .
Both of them clarified that the photo was a research need that carried the theme of body and expression.
This research is usually used to voice individual rights and it is hoped that it can change the perspective of the community or those around them.
"So, the nudists referred to here are voicing or protesting or advocating through a body that is usually voiced for individual rights or perhaps gender struggles, like that," said BR.
Even so, both admitted that they were careless in placing the research documents on social media. They are aware that the content of the photo can be misused and reinterpreted in a different context.
"Here we learn from mistakes so that maybe in the future we can do better and sort out what we have to post. As well as be wiser in posting something that might not be good in the future," said BR.
Warganet's apologies for E and BR were not welcomed by netizens, especially nature lovers. Most of them urge managers of mountain tourism in Indonesia not to accept E and BR back in the future.
"Blacklist !!!," wrote the account @ryan_jeyzedef.
