Solo – First Lady Iriana Joko Widodo (Jokowi) participated in a series of events for the 44th anniversary of Dekranas, including joining the craft and cultural decorated car parade in the shape of Rajamala. Iriana was even seen dancing at the event.

According to detikJateng's observation, Iriana's daughter, Kahiyang Ayu, who is the wife of Medan Mayor Bobby Nasution, was also present, seen walking in a black kebaya with her three children Sedah Mirah, Panembahan Al Nahyan, and Penambahan Al-Saud Nasution.

The parade procession was seen crossing Slamet Riyadi Street from the West to the East. The first row was made up of the palace procession, followed by the decorated Rajamala car.

The Rajamala decorated car was ridden by First Lady Iriana along with the wife of the Vice President, Wury Ma’ruf Amin, the wife of the Mayor of Solo, Selvi Ananda, and members of Oase KIM. The First Lady and the wives of ministers also threw ball toys to the crowd.

Getting off the decorated car, Iriana and the procession waved at the people below. She also took a moment to take a photo in front of the Jaladara locomotive, which was used as a stage.

Next, Iriana and members of Oase went up to the honor stage. Iriana and the procession watched the decorated cars and cultural parades from all provinces of Indonesia.

Iriana appeared to enjoy the music as the angklung-decorated car passed in front of her. She was even seen standing up to dance.

When the decorated car from the Ministry of Education and Culture brought angklung musical instruments, Iriana, who was sitting at first, suddenly stood up to dance. The First Lady was seen moving her hands and body.

Immediately, the wives of the ministers also stood up to wave at the participants passing by. In addition to the wives of the ministers, the wife of the Mayor of Solo, Selvi Ananda, was also seen standing as she observed Iriana standing up.

During the moment, Iriana also received Durian from Dekranasda Muara Enim, South Sumatra. The wife of President Joko Widodo was accompanied by her two grandchildren, Jan Ethes and La Lembah Manah, who received two durians.

In addition, it was noted that the decorated car, craft, and cultural parade for the 44th Dekranas anniversary also received a MURI record from the Indonesian World Record Museum. Initially, the MURI record was to be presented by the founder of MURI, Jaya Suparna, but it was then given to Iriana Jokowi.

According to detikJateng's observation, Jaya Suparna, who had already been on the honor stage, was asked to symbolically hand over the MURI record to Endang Budi Karya Sumadi, the Head of the New Entrepreneurs Division. However, he then requested that Iriana Jokowi receive it directly.

The MURI record was given for the longest and most significant parade in Indonesia. Jaya Suparna also mentioned that this marks the first-ever longest decorated car parade in Indonesia.

“Not only is it the longest in Indonesia, but in the world. I think the one who deserves to give it is First Lady Iriana,” he said before handing over the MURI record to Iriana Jokowi on Wednesday (May 15, 2024).

Next, Iriana handed over the MURI record to Endang Budi Karya Sumadi, accompanied by Wury Ma’aruf Amin and Tri Tito Karnavian.

Meanwhile, Endang Budi Karya Sumadi explained that the parade received the MURI record because it featured the most decorated vehicles, with a total of 102 vehicles.

“There were 102 decorated vehicles, all decorated in such a way with the theme of crafts and culture, bringing the identity and culture of their respective regions. And it is now the largest parade in Indonesia, recognized by MURI,” said Endang.

In addition to the 102 decorated vehicles, the parade was also joined by thousands of PKK cadres from Indonesia. At least 1,200 PKK cadres from across Indonesia participated in the parade with decorated cars, crafts, and culture.

“There were 1,200 PKK cadres from across Indonesia wearing traditional costumes from their respective regions,” he concluded.
