“For the preparation itself, we did it in a short time. Even though there were several obstacles, such as wind direction and flight locations, which were not conducive, we could handle them well. Moreover, we often deal with activities like this, like the previous Sky Show," said the lecturer from Rembang.
Apart from the sky show, he also prepared a marching band in collaboration with the UMM Student Activity Unit (UKM). Yatno, as he was called, again explained that the presence of the two appearances was meant to enliven the East Java regional conference. Apart from that, it also adds energy to Muhammadiyah members so that they continue to spread benefits.
"Hopefully, the sky show and marching band we are holding can give a new color to the East Java Muhamamdiyah regional conference activities. So that the excitement of the regional conference is not inferior to the liveliness of the congress (Muktamar) in Solo," said the lecturer in Animal Husbandry Biotechnology.
