AKARTA: To enliven the celebrations of the city's anniversary, Central Jakarta will hold the Passer Baroe Festival from June 19-21 at one of the city's oldest shopping arcades - Pasar Baru.
Central Jakarta Tourism Agency head Dewi Susanti said the festival would feature traditional art performances, Chinese lion dance and a singing contest, as well as competitions involving local residents, like duck hunting and pole climbing.
"We hope the attractions will draw Jakarta residents here," Dewi said as quoted by beritajakarta.com.
