The Rector of UNS, Prof. Dr. Jamal Wiwoho, opened the event on June 24-26, 2022. He explained that this international competition was held to introduce one of Indonesia’s intangible cultural heritage to be known by more countries. Moreover, today, Pencak Silat has been designated as an Indonesian cultural heritage recognized by the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). “We should be proud and continue to strive for Pencak Silat to gain the younger generations’ interest because a strong nation is a nation that values its own culture,” said Prof. Jamal.

The championship provided three championship categories: single, double, and team. This year, the International Virtual Pencak Silat Championship was attended by participants from seven countries, with a total of 19 contingents competing in this championship, consisting of 11 contingents from Indonesia and 8 (eight) contingents from abroad. Totalling 95 participants are competing to be the champion.

The championship is still being held virtually, considering that the pandemic in Indonesia is not yet over. Some positive cases are resurfacing. Therefore, the assessment process is carried out virtually. Nevertheless, it does not compromise the jury’s objectivity.

Prof. Jamal hopes this championship can be an event to find superior Pencak Silat athlete talents. Additionally, it is hoped that the younger generation can love Pencak Silat. “Through this competition, we hope to find excellent young talents, who will contribute to the national honors,” he concluded.

In his opening remark, Prof. Dr. Jamal Wiwoho, S.H., M.Hum., stated that in its 46 years old, UNS had served the country and the nation in numerous ways. Prof. Jamal also stated that the university had created numerous findings in science and technology to support the nation’s competitiveness and national development.

The new tower itself was inaugurated by the President of the Republic of Indonesia (RI), Ir. Joko Widodo.

As mentioned by the Rector, the wayang performance is UNS’ effort to achieve its vision to become the center of science and technology development at the national and international level based on the noble values of the national cultures.

“Hopefully, this wayang performance that tells the story of Gatutkaca Kridha could teach us a lesson. This event is beneficial especially for the young generation because the story teaches (us) to remember the responsibility to build the country and how to become a young generation who understands the meaning of harmony and other positive values,” Prof. Jamal added.

Prof. Jamal greatly appreciated the hard work of the UNS 46^th Anniversary Celebration committee in preparing all events in the celebration series. The chairman of the committee and the Dean of the Faculty of Medical Science (FK) UNS, Prof. Dr. Reviono, dr., Sp.P(K) stated that this event achieves two objectives, celebrating the university anniversary while conserving the Javanese culture.

The performance was opened with the handover of paraga wayang or the set of wayang kulit puppets from Prof. Jamal to the dalang or the director of the performance, Ki MPP Bayu Aji.

Gatutkaca Kridha tells the story of Gatutkaca, a son of Pandawa, who showed his patriotic and chivalrous spirit from a young age. Gatutkaca is the righthand man for many gods for defeating the giant king of Prabu Pracona and Patih Sekipu, which provided him the opportunity to be the King of Purwacarita as his reward. Gatutkaca also received a blessing of “Wahyu Tamtama Jati” which means mighty formidable knight. Humas UNS

The second speaker, Dr. Priyo Cahyono, said that PT.

In his remarks, Dr. Mardiyana said that this event was organized to announce the winners of various competitions for the 46th UNS Anniversary. Initially, this announcement ceremony was scheduled for May 2, but since it coincided with the Eid al-Fitr day, thus, it was postponed to May 20, which coincides with the National Resurgence Day. “FKIP has bestowed a mandate by the Chair of UNS Anniversary Celebration to host winners announcements for the UNS Anniversary Competitions and art performances. Originally, art performances were held on the 11th of every month, but because there were many activities at the faculty and university level yesterday, this regular event was combined with the announcement of competitions winners,” said the Dean of FKIP.

The Chair for the 46th UNS Anniversary, Prof. Reviono, said that the announcement of competition winners is marking the end of the UNS Anniversary Celebration activities series. “Later, we will announce the winners of academic and non-academic competitions. The idea to merge the two events was proposed by the Rector of UNS, thus, UNS does not only show its potential in the academic field but also in the art and culture,” said Prof. Reviono.

In line with Prof. Reviono’s opinion, Prof. Jamal asserted that UNS, as one of the universities ranked in the top university ranking, also preserves the national art and culture. “The art performance is on our monthly agenda to preserve the Indonesia archipelago art and culture. I invite colleagues to not only think about academic quality but also to preserve national culture and art. This effort was represented through this art stage, I see that the committees have worn various customary clothes,” said Prof. Jamal. Humas UNS
