This is a unique and fun race is not it?

This race has been ingrained in the people of Indonesia.
From the pictures we see, they help each other and never give up. Things that must be done by the people of Indonesia.
This competition is also able to strengthen mutual cooperation between communities.

The meaning of the areca climbing competition

In this race is needed togetherness and good cooperation between attendees to achieve the highest peak and can seize gifts, it reflects the spirit of the unity of our fighters as they struggle to grab the independence as we have today.

From this race we can also take the meaning that when we are above / peak remember the person below us.

This is just what I can say in my post this time, hope you like it and interested in my post, see you...
