Because Jakarta has to wait until 68 years to offer. “To visit to be a host, it waits 68 years. It’s extraordinary because the scale is international,” Ali said. Ali hopes that events like WAMSB can be a positive forum for the younger generation to be creative and develop their artistic abilities. “In addition to teaching and learning activities, music and art activities can be a positive choice, which keeps children of drugs, violence and brawls,” he said. Ali added, the implementation of WAMSB 2025 was also in line with the vision of the DKI Jakarta governor Pramono Anung to make Jakarta a global city. “Our standards are no longer cities in Indonesia, but the big cities of the world. Global does not mean eliminating our cultural arts, it becomes a sales power to introduce culture to the world,” he added. (Call/Zap)
