Hi, I'm Geby Chesilia Sanora. I'm here to report an assignment of English Class. On Tuesday, August 27th, i visited "Festival Durian Bumi Khatulistiwa 2019" at the parking area of Ayani Megamall. It was quite festive and crowded. This festival was held from 24th of August-1st of September.
There were so many food and beverage stands. They sold various foods from local cuisines. They also held Durian Eating Contest, you can eat durian as much as you want by paying only Rp50.000 for 30 minutes. The durian seedlings were also sold there.
This festival not only focused on Durian Eating Contest, but there were also other competitions such as The Best Durian Contest, Fun Zumba, Farming Ambassador 2019 Contest, Colouring Competition for Kids, Live Music, Sarasehan Durian, Durian Cooking Competition, Mural Competition, Fashion Show Competition, and Dancing Competition. The prize was also amazing, the total amount was Rp100.000.000.
When i visited the festival, it was still on a daylight, so there were no performance on the stage. The were still decorating the stage. The perfomance might be held on the last day of fesival. The relationship of this festival with my major, economic, is the media to promote business and introduce our local products in order to increase the economic deveploment. In economic, if there are many activities related to business transactions, it signs the healthy development and helps to open more job opportunity.
This is the end of my report. Thanks for your attention. Good day!
