June 1 is celebrated as the Birthday of Pancasila. This year, the celebration centre was held in Ende Flores accompanied by a 2-day visit by President Jokowi.


For the people of NTT, especially Ende, this year's celebration of the Birthday of Pancasila is certainly very special.
A long history proves Ende's role and support for the nation's founders for the birth of Pancasila, which until now has become the basis of the state.

A lecturer in History Education at the University of Flores, Damianus Rikardo Sumbi Wasa, briefly described the history of Ende and Pancasila, including their impression of the presence of President Joko Widodo, who is the only president apart from Ir Soekarno who has visited Ende.
