Deal #10148

To this day, a women's group in Wadas Village, Purworejo Regency, Central Java is holding an action to reject the government's plan to mine andesite in their village. This action is carried out by symbolically wrapping stagen cloth around the trunks of large trees. This action has meaning in the Javanese tradition, a mother always takes care of her child. This is also what the Wadon Wadas do, they take care of Mother Earth in Wadas because the rich nature of Wadas has provided life for the people of Wadas.
