At the Sari Hotel Bandung, KRPP Leader Team 8 Arif Hariman accompanied by the Secretary General of Mangatur Simanjuntak met with one of the cultural figures in West Java, Robby Maulana Zulkarnaen and Pemuda figure Deni Ahmad Soleh.

The place is not only focused on activities, but also responsible for periodic development to maintain the local wisdom of the nation's ancestral heritage.

"Pancasila as the nation's ideology is very close to culture as evidenced by the 4th precept of Pancasila that the Deliberation was taken as a way to make decisions without hurting minorities but the common goal was achieved, besides that the mandate of the 1945 Constitution article 32 paragraph 1," he explained, Thursday, November 7.

"The state advances Indonesia's national culture in the midst of world differences by guaranteeing people's freedom in maintaining and developing cultural values," he continued.
