This truck is different with truck which we usually know. This truck is not a type of vehicle which is able to load tons of luggage, crop, etc. This truck is a toy which has big impact to some level of hierarchy in society. This truck is miniature truck in big size.

Truck Festival in Ganjaran, Gondanglegi, kab. Malang

Living in Ganjaran Village is a blessing for me because it leads me to side with unique society who leaves in Java but speaking in Madura. This village consists of half-blood descent between Java and Madura, and it’s caused the location quietly remote from another area so it makes its own unique characteristic among all. This village could be called as ‘Kota Santri’ because teen of Islamic boarding exists in this village which Madura’s migration in Kalimantan always takes his/her child to Islamic boarding in Ganjaran Village. While we know how faithful society here, we also must perceive that not all people has same faithful. Surely Ganjaran has the reverse.

Recent month, there is new habit from Ganjaran society to buy big size miniature truck. The truck is just a toy so it doesn’t load luggage as usual but it brings big sound speaker in its container. The sound speaker will be turned on and sing a song in high volume so their neighbor will be heard the song as well. It will do every time and there’s community of every people who has the miniature. For your information, people cannot easily buy the miniature as buying usual toy because the price is quiet expensive, cheapest truck costs Rp 800.000 until Rp 8.000.000 or more, depends on size, form, color, etc. Of course not all people can buy it if he/she doesn’t have excess money to set aside and buy the truck.
