Who's the prettiest?

PALANGKA RAYA, Central Kalimantan: Muara Teweh, the capital of the Barito Utara regency, has been named the "prettiest" town in Central Kalimantan.

Muara Teweh was chosen particularly because of the way it has managed the city's landscape and gardens, Titik Sundari, the chief spokesperson of Central Kalimantan's provincial administration, told Antara.

The prettiest town award was given in connection with International Environmental Day. Sampit, the capital of Kotawaringin Timur regency, and Palangka Raya, the province's capital, won second and third prizes respectively. (emb)
