WEST BANGKA -- Seven Likur has become a hereditary tradition carried out by the community in Mancung Village, West Bangak Regency in the month of Ramadan. This tradition is carried out to commemorate the night of Lailatur Qadar.
PT Timah Tbk is collaborating with the Mancung Village Government to support the implementation of the seven Likurs in Mancung Village which has become an annual agenda.
The head of the organizing committee for the Tujuj Likur activities in Mancung Village Novinda Riyanza Agatha said the Seven Likur tradition aims to preserve traditions that have been passed down from generation to generation.
