Candidate for president (candidate) number 3 Ganjar Pranowo was not afraid when he was given an offer to dance. Wearing black sneakers, Ganjar shook his body while smiling in front of Sultan Kutai Kartanegara Aji Muhammad Arifin.

However, in order to avoid the wrong Kanjar Ganjur dance movement, Ganjar still sees the artist dance in the vicinity.

The moment was summarized during Ganjar's visit to the Sultanate of Kutai Kertanegara Ing Martadipura in Tenggarong, East Kalimantan (Kaltim), Wednesday, December 6.

Initially, Ganjar, who appeared casual wearing a navy blue shirt, cream trousers equipped with a black skullcap, arrived at the location at around 12.10 WITA. He was greeted by Sultan Kutai Kartanegara Aji Muhammad Arifin as he was invited to the seat of honor.

A moment later the artists from Kutai Kartanegara entered the room to show the Mask dance. The show changed with Kanjar Ganjur dance.

Ganjar, who was engrossed in seeing artists, was invited by the sultanate to move out of the bench and dance Kanjar Ganjur. Siti Atikoh Supriyanti's husband then accepted the invitation to dance the typical dance of the Sultanate of Kutai Kertanegara, Ing Martadipura.

According to Ganjar, Kanjar Ganjur dance is so beautiful and similar to Javanese dance. The reason is, there is a gamelan that accompanies the dance.

"I think the way to play it is the same, the dance movement, some of the masks, it's similar. There must be cultural acculturation. Definitely," said Ganjar, confiscated by Antara.

He also praised Indonesia's greatness because it has various interesting stories that can be values to maintain and develop.

"I agree that we pay attention to the sultanate who is still alive, is still running and processing properly," he said.

Ganjar said that during his leadership in Central Java, his party always contributed to the two palaces in Surakarta.

"There are two in Surakarta and we continue to dialogue and communicate so that it also develops, because there are so many teachings that are currently, actually become a guide," said Ganjar.

As is known, on the ninth day of today's campaign, Wednesday, December 6, Ganjar visited three areas in East Kalimantan, namely the cities of Balikpapan, Kutai Kartanegara, and Samarinda.

Ganjar started by running in the morning with local residents at Merdeka Square, Balikpapan, Wednesday, December 6 at 06.00 WITA.
