The atmosphere of the blessing of the baby branch after birth

Preserving culture from extinction

■ Good night everyone... I hope you are always healthy and happy there with your beloved family. I @zaenfullmoon will post before you a grand event about traditions and culture in the country of Aceh, Indonesia and this kind of event is usually held in every family that has just received the gift of a baby by a newlywed couple.

This kind of tradition only exists in the Indonesian province of Aceh and not all regions in Indonesia have this kind of event. So if you come to Aceh and have seen an event like this, you don't need to be surprised and feel strange because there are many banquets in the country of Aceh.

This is our culture and the legacy of our ancestors we cannot lose this is the mandate of our ancestors to be passed on to our children and grandchildren and please look after it and always protect it and don't let this culture become extinct by the times and that's what someone said guests I managed to interview.

Aceh is a province in Indonesia, located on the Malacca peninsula and adjacent to the country of Malaysia. Geographically, Aceh is in the trans-Indian Ocean lane and its position at the very tip of the island of Sumatra. The majority of Aceh's population is 98% Muslim and the rest are Christians, Buddhists and Hindus. The people of Aceh are known to the world as people who are obedient and obedient to their religion and culture.

And the people of Aceh are very thick with traditions passed down by their ancestors and they are willing to sacrifice anything in order to uphold the MOU inherited from their ancestors. They are so firm and loyal to the mandate left by their grandparents.

And if there are parties who casually tamper with this trust or deliberately pollute it for some reason, the Acehnese will take special action to deal with this problem.

The country of Aceh is a country whose people uphold their religion and culture and traditions, but behind all that in the country of Aceh there are many tribes from outside who like to live in the Aceh area for the reason that they are happy with the friendliness and pluralism of their people.

The province of Aceh has an area five times (5×) larger than the country of Brunei Darussalam and the country of Aceh stores a lot of agricultural products, especially natural gas and gold and coal and iron ore and iron wood (Meuraboe). investing in Aceh such as America, Japan, India, China.

According to historical records stored in the archives of the local government, Aceh was once colonized by foreigners in ancient times and their arrival was solely to seize Aceh's diverse crops and the foreigners who colonized Aceh for quite a long time were the Dutch, they colonized Aceh for three hundred and five twenty years (350) and then replaced by the Japanese for 3.5 years and after that the Portuguese for 13 years.

The people of Aceh were devastated by this event, especially since colonialism came and went, they were tempted by Aceh's fertile and vast nature and very minimal population.

And behind that incident there was another war that took place in Aceh, namely the civil war which lasted for almost 40 years, this group undermined the sovereignty of the country only for a specific purpose.

The authorities have attempted to negotiate to reach an agreement but to no avail they have remained in their stance.

However, fate said otherwise, within seconds the biggest natural disaster in world history occurred in Aceh, namely the earthquake and tsunami in December 2004, from that moment all activities in Aceh were completely paralyzed for almost one (1) year.

So after the tsunami, this country returned to its dignity as when its ancestors were still there.

So the point here is that the people of Aceh always maintain, preserve and uphold customs and culture that have almost become extinct, swallowed up by the tyranny of the times.

And that's the snippet of traditional and cultural events that I managed to collect recently, I hope you will be amazed by this presentation.

And my greetings to all colleagues.
