South Jakarta Administration Urges Abang None 2026 Finalists to Promote Pusaka Flag Park
The South Jakarta City Administration has asked the representatives of Abang None (Abnon) South Jakarta 2026 to promote Taman Bendera Pusaka.
“One of these tasks is for Abang None, together with the South Jakarta Tourism and Creative Economy Sub-department (Sudin Parekraf), to actively photograph and promote the potential of new creative spaces, such as Taman Bendera Pusaka,” said South Jakarta Mayor Syafrin Liputo in Jakarta on Wednesday.
He said that winning at the city level is the beginning of the journey for the finalists to bring honour to South Jakarta in the Abnon competition at the DKI Jakarta Provincial level.
Abang None are expected to play an active role in socialising various government programmes to the public and to demonstrate their abilities optimally in the Abnon selection at the DKI Jakarta Provincial level.
Moreover, the 2026 Abnon selection is a special moment because it is held after the commemoration of the 499th anniversary of DKI Jakarta. The finalists also have a major task to help socialise South Jakarta’s flagship programmes in welcoming five centuries of Jakarta.
“I ask all South Jakarta representatives to perform optimally later. Strengthen your mentality, knowledge, and other things that have been provided during the quarantine. I am optimistic that the South Jakarta Abang None representatives will achieve the best results,” said Syafrin.
“I hope that Abang None will not only be active when there are assignments, but will also be able to initiate collaborative work programmes to foster the creative economy and open new job opportunities,” said Syafrin.
Furthermore, he assessed that the Abnon event is not merely about judging physical appearance, but is also a platform for the younger generation to actualise the knowledge and abilities they possess and align them with the city’s development vision.
“Abang None is not merely a contest of handsomeness and beauty, but rather an event to test the ability to express oneself based on each individual’s educational background to be implemented concretely in society,” Syafrin asserted.
Meanwhile, the Head of the Marketing and Attractions Section of the South Jakarta Sudin Parekraf, Anita, confirmed the readiness of the work programme preparation for Abang None South Jakarta 2026 for the coming year.
She mentioned that in preparation for the DKI Jakarta Abnon selection, the finalists have currently participated in various series of activities, including training.
“Regarding the concept of the work programme, of course we will prepare it together. We also ask for prayers and support for the top three Abang and None who will fight to bring the name of South Jakarta at the DKI Jakarta Provincial level,” Anita added.
