Now Revealed & Data Still Complete, the Story of KKN in the Original Penari Village Happened in 2008

Kapanlagi.com - The story of KKN in Penari Village went viral through a Twitter thread written by SimpleMan. He claimed that the story was true, but the original identity of the student, university name, and village location were all kept secret.

However, recently, the original location and actual time of the KKN in Penari Village were revealed by the Minister of State-Owned Enterprises, Erick Thohir. The location and time of implementation were revealed because there was official data from the village head.

To uncover the truth of the story of KKN in Penari Village, Erick Thohir even invited the Manager and Guard of Rowo Bayu, Sudirman, who then explained that the story was indeed true.

1. True Story

"This is a true story, sir," said Sudirman as quoted from Erick Thohir's Instagram account, Wednesday, May 18, 2022. The community service program for students was carried out in Rowo Bayu Village, Banyuwangi Regency and originated from one of the campuses in Surabaya.

Sudirman mentioned that there were 6 students who participated in the program, and two of them were actually in a romantic relationship. One day, the couple left the site, or the community service area.

2. The Dancing Village

Special

On the way, they met someone who then invited them to his house. The couple was entertained by the person, even given a gift wrapped in newspaper when they were about to leave.

They returned to the community service location and told their friends that they had come from a village called The Dancing Village. Their friends did not believe it because there was no village in that area.

3. Opening the Newspaper Package

To prove their words, the student couple opened the newspaper package. "When it was opened, it turned out to be not a newspaper package but had turned into taro leaves. When this package was opened, its contents turned out to be a fresh monkey head," said Sudirman.

Based on the records of the head of Rowo Bayu Village, the community service program for students was carried out in 2008. This also denies the rumors circulating that the program was carried out in 2009. However, some also mention it was in 1996.
