Mom, Your Son is Coming Home...

Kompas/Ferganata Indra Riatmoko

Motorcyclists cross the city of Salatiga, Central Java, on Friday (23/6).  Idul Fitri is a precious moment for Muslims to strengthen familial and community ties in their hometowns.

”Duwe duit ora duwe duit sing penting mudik. Otw Temanggung.”(Whether you have money or not, the most important thing is going home. OTW to Temanggung.)

This was written on a piece of cardboard placed on the back of a motorcycle. The passengers were two people, wearing jackets, masks and helmets. The motorcycle was driving slowly on Jl. Raya Kalimalang, East Jakarta.
