"Peusijuk" Procession

Hi everyone!

These few days I've been very busy with my work at the office, so I can't update the post here.

Last week, my head of office was replaced by a new leader, so I have a lot of work to do during this transition period. Starting from the completeness of the documents, to the preparation of the welcome from the old leadership to the new leadership.

We made a speech from the leadership yesterday, Tuesday, May 31, 2022 at the office. The release and welcoming of our leaders was carried out with the "Peusijuk" procession which became Aceh's custom, especially the custom of the people of West Aceh Regency.

In doing "Peusijuk" using several media, meaning that every medium used including Wheat Flour mixed with water means that every splash gives calm and patience to those who receive "Peusijuk".

Furthermore, by using the Rice Rice media, which means it can be fertile, prosperous and enthusiastic like a sprinkling of rice that is so lively that it falls. Then the leaves and grass that are tied up and used for "Peusijuk" means binding one unit of life in society. Lastly, Nasi Ketan (pulut kuning) means a symbol of brotherhood, just like sticky rice attached to other ingredients.

All the utensils were placed in a large tray containing yellow sticky rice filled with coconut, a basin filled with a mixture of flour and water, a hand washing basin, a bunch of leaves and grass, and a basin filled with rice.

Usually in addition to welcoming guests, the "Peusijuk" procession is also carried out in new homes, new vehicles, for people who are recovering from illness, wedding and so on. "Peusijuk" does not mean a media request, but only as an Acehnese traditional procession.

Thus today's short post, thank you for being willing to read.
