Traditional art

Traditional art

From Merdeka

The increased broadcast of the traditional arts on private TV stations is most welcome. The community has been looking forward to watching the traditional arts, which has become a national asset. It is a fact that young people tend to be indifferent towards the traditional arts because, according to them, they lack attractiveness. But the TV stations have made a good effort to revive the traditional arts, and hopefully they will gradually be able to attract young viewers.

We are slightly optimistic in this case, because of the fact that a puppet show, which is presented by Indosiar TV station every Saturday evening, has claimed more and more fans. Accordingly, the networks' managements should air more programs on traditional arts from Java, Sumatra and other provinces.
