BOGOR - The Halalbihalal Paguyuban Demak Bintoro Nusantara (PDBN) at ACASA Resto & Cafe Puncak, Ciawi, Bogor, Saturday, April 18, 2026, took place. This event brought together cross-generational figures from various regions, accompanied by flower arrangements, sponsors, and door prizes for more than 300 participants.

The General Chair of the PDBN Fathan Subchi received many congratulations from various circles. Flower garlands lined up at the entrance to the event location. The greetings came from regional heads, banks, BUMD, politicians, academics, entrepreneurs, to clerics.

"On behalf of the Chairman of the General Assembly of PDBN and the board of directors, we would like to thank all parties who have sent flower arrangements, prayers, material support, fruit, sponsors, and door prizes," said PDBN Secretary General Edi Sayudi when reading the opening speech.

Edi said Fathan Subchi could not attend in person because there were three agendas taking place at the same time. Even so, the message conveyed was that differences of opinion within the organization should not turn into a split.

"In the big family of the PDBN, if there is a cross-opinion, it is inevitable, as long as it is for the good without causing division, let's join hands to build the region," said Edi.

The event was guided by Lia and Noor, who also served as the Chairman of the Demak PGSI. The atmosphere was more crowded with live music and door prize distribution from a number of sponsors, including Bank Jateng Demak Branch, BRI Demak, PT Jackpro, Baznas DKI Jakarta, Acasa Cottage Resto and Cafe, and the main donation from Fathan Subchi.

The chairman of the committee, Gus Toto, said the preparations were made in a short time, but the committee tried its best to keep the event comfortable.

"As the Chairman of the Committee and the team, we have worked hard to create a comfortable and enjoyable atmosphere for the Halal Bihalal PDBN. If there are still shortcomings, we apologize," said Gus Toto.

He added that the theme of forging brotherhood, strengthening synergy is expected to be felt in the meeting.

A number of figures were present, including Hariyadi Himawan, Hanif Nurcholis, Deputy Regent of Karawang Maslani, Mohammad Makrifat, Ida Mahmudah, Suyanto, Slamet Sutrisno, Wulan Rudy Prasetyo, Rector of UIN Banten Ihsom, Agus Nugroho, and the management of Paguyuban Kalijogo Demak Balikpapan. The total number of invited guests reached around 300 people.
