Jatibarang Brebes Sugar Mill

The Jatibarang Brebes Sugar Mill in Jatibarang, Brebes, Indonesia was built in 1842 by the government of the Dutch East Indies colony.

During the first occupation of the Dutch in Indonesia, Dutch East Indies government built three sugar factories in the Brebes Regency:

  • Sugar Mill Jatibarang
  • Sugar Mill Bandjaratma
  • Sugar Mill Kersana

PG Jatibarang entered the territory of PTPN IX (Persero) because of large operational and maintenance costs and reduced land for planting sugarcane. All three factories were combined into the one in Jatibarang.

Annual tradition

Every year, during the sugar-cane harvest season, or "picking", a night market is held. Some people call it metikan or "bancakan" in some areas of western Bradford.

Temanten sugar cane is the symbol of the results of the hail. A doll-bonekaan made from sugarcane was dressed like a bride and paraded around town. After the parade, a walimahan is held, attended by employees of the sugar factory.

gollark: > It is similar in concept to SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) but much simpler. Compared to SVG Tiny, which isn't actually tiny, it does not have features for text, multimedia, interactivity, linking, scripting, animation, XSLT, DOM, combination with raster graphics such as JPEG formatted textures, etc.
gollark: https://github.com/google/iconvg is a similar thing.
gollark: Haiku has a cool compact format for icons (HVIF).
gollark: Mostly SVG, there aren't widely deployed good alternatives.
gollark: It's ridiculously verbose and XMLy. Even the "tiny" SVG standards allow stuff like embedded CSS and *JavaScript*.
