Some Stories in Java. 

It interesting to  hear stories example Banyuwangi, Gunung tangkuban perahu (sangkuriang ), Bandung Bondowoso, Lake Toba, ect.

I’ll tell you a little about Banyuwangi. Banyuwangi Once upon a time , there reigned in East Java a king named Sindureja . He had a prime minister named Sidapaksa . Sidapaksa had a very beautiful wife. Sidapkasa loved his wife deeply, they lived in complete happiness, however Sidapaksa mother didn’t like her daughter in law ,each day she tried to think a way to separate Sidapaksa from his wife.

 One day, King Sindureja asked Sidapaksa to search for the bud of a magic flower on Mount Ijen it was a long and dangerous journey the assignment from the king was so important and ugrgent Sidapkasa had to leave his pregnant wife, not long afterwards a son was born the baby’s birth gave much happiness to the young mother.

However one day while this young mother was bathing her evil mother-in-law therew the baby into the river, knowing that her babyhad disappeared the young mother was very sad she could neither eat not sleep she became very ill. Two years passed and Sidapksa returned from his journey he success in doing his duty just as he was about to enter his house her mother told him that is wife had thrown their baby into the river.

 Sidapaksa belive his mother’s story he was too angry to use his common sense he drew his kris and approached his wife who was lying weak on her bed. “Ah, wicked woman. Tell me why you therew our new-born child into the river . Tell me!’’ he said in a rough and angry voice,. ‘’ Oh, my dearst husband . I am innocent. I love you, and our baby. I didn’t kill our child. If you don’t belive me, carry me to the river .i will prove that I didn’t do it,’’ replied his wife calmly. Sidapksa took her wife to the edge of the the river, suddenly his wife leap up and therew herself into the river, ‘’ Oh my God! How will I know who killed my child?” say Sidapaksa.
Then he look down at the water suddenly two pure white flower buds appeared, one larger and taller than the other a sweat fragrance came from them,. “Sidapksa , look here! Beside me is our child. He himself will tell you who drown him,’’ the taller one spoke. ‘’Father ,my mother is innocent. Grandmother therew mke into the river, no I’am happy because my beloved mother has come with me,’’ the smaller one spoke, then the two flowers vanished into the water they left their fragrance behind. Since then, people call the city on its banks of the river Banyuwangi, Banyu means water and wangi means fragrant.

 That is about Banyuwangi I hope you like, thanks for your attention. Yes this is precisely my village which is located in the village cibinong hilir, cilaku-cianjur downstream sub-district, my village is much defferent now is not like it used to, used to my village is quiet, cool, many hills are green because of the hills were once beautiful now been testroyed and flat, all of it due to sand mining. Areas that were once cool, has now turres into a barren, the road was destroyed, full of pollution if the dry and wet it rains.

Counntless how much sand mining here what was once the plants thrive, but now to grow too hard, the ground was dry and. Water is hard, yes it is because the effects of mining. Sometimes I think when all this all will come to an end, and if it's over if I can get back to normal ? But it seens not maybe my village will remain like this, ever more devastated but despite my village now. Has been destroyed like this, and a lot of people who like cursing, but I still like living here because here was the one I was born and brought up to date. . . .
