He emphasised a collaborative approach beyond provincial budgets, aiming to create a lasting legacy of cultural preservation under the spirit of Padjadjaran, while committing to maintain rather than commercialise these sites. Additionally, KDM intends to develop cultural plazas like Pelataran Caruban in Cirebon to reinforce West Java's historical and artistic heritage across participating cities.",
        "content": "<p>REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, CIREBON \u2013 West Java Governor Dedi Mulyadi plans to\nrestore the beauty of four palaces in Cirebon City. Keraton Kasepuhan,\nKacirebonan, Kanoman, and Kaprabonan will be arranged to be clean and\nneat. The roads around the palaces will be cleaned, pavements repaired,\nand the river will also be cleaned so that it has clear water flowing to\nthe sea. \u201cThere should no longer be scattered rubbish and slums. I have\nno desires other than a legacy during my leadership, that when Dedi\nMulyadi leads with the spirit of Padjadjaran, Keraton Kasepuhan,\nKacirebonan, Kanoman, Kaprabonan, all must be neatly arranged as in the\npast,\u201d said the governor, familiarly known as KDM, during the Kirab\nBudaya Mahkota Binokasih Napaktilas Padjadjaran event in Cirebon City on\nSunday (10\/5\/2026) night. \u201cNo need to just talk about the provincial\nbudget, many want to help participate,\u201d he added. He explained that the\nplan is to make tourists comfortable and want to stay longer in Cirebon.\nCurrently, according to him, tourists only stay a day in Cirebon. \u201cI\nheard stories, visits to the palaces in Cirebon average a day and then\nleave because they only see the palace, their eyes can no longer see the\nbeautiful Cirebon. The atmosphere is too hot. The historical atmosphere,\nsocial atmosphere, and atmosphere of love and affection are lost. So I\ninvite the Regent and the Mayor, let us use love in arranging the city,\u201d\nhe stressed. KDM emphasised responsibility for all development and\nrenovation of the palaces in Cirebon. However, with the condition that\nthey must be maintained and preserved, not sold for the needs of a few\npeople. \u201cWe are not selling the palace but we are maintaining the\npalace. We are not selling the grave but we are maintaining the grave,\u201d\nhe stressed. He will also arrange the route of the Kirab Budaya Mahkota\nBinokasih Napaktilas Padjadjaran in every city passed during the\nMilangkala Tatar Sunda event. This arrangement is to restore the beauty\nof the city and reaffirm the existence of West Java\u2019s history of art and\nculture to the people of West Java. \u201cIn Karawang, I will build Pelataran\nCinta. In Bogor, I will also build Pelataran Binokasih. So next year, in\nCirebon from where I started earlier until here, I will build Pelataran\nCaruban,\u201d he said.<\/p>",
