Assalamualaikum Ladies and Gentleman, let me introduce myself. My name Adelia Arlinda, but commonly called Adel. I am 18 years old and I attended the Makassar tourism  Polytechnic, and my major is tour and travel bussines study program.  I will explain my experience of my first trip in Maros and Pangkep especially Rammang-Rammang, Blacksmith, Traditional Market, and Batari.

Day 1, in Maros Regency.

    

At 07.30 before departing we gathered at the Makassar Tourism Polytechnic campus, precisely in front of the Orange building and conducting an attendance session which was read out by the tour leader, and prayed together before traveling.

   

At 08.00 We gathered to board the bus and occupy a seat that has been set by the tour leader to start the day trip. On the bus we were directed to explain each person's guiding material. This guiding material is explanation about the overview in Indonesia and in Maros. But in this first day I didn't explained my guiding material, because my material is a technology system and equipment in the PANGKEP, so I will describe my material tomorrow.  More or less 2 hours drive, finally we reached the dock of Rammang Rammang.

To go to Rammang Rammang we have to ride a boat named Jolloro. The price for this boat is about Rp. 300,000 / 10 peopleDuring the trip to Rammang Rammang we can see a very beautiful scenery. why did we call rammang-rammang? because in the morning there are foggy or cloudy.

After the journey to reach the destination is the village of age. In the village Berua has 3 actraction namely Diamond Cave, KingKong Cave, and Ammarung.

The first we visited in Diamond Cave

  

  This diamond cave was discovered by sir Muslimin, 4 years ago.The price to enter this cave is Rp. 5.000. This place is on a plateau. The access to Diamond Caves has to pass through uphill roads filled with rocks. In the Diamond Cave There was also a large stone that resembles the face of an elephant and a mother who embraced her child. This cave hides many diamonds and cannot be touched, because if we touched will be mossy. And to see the diamonds we have to climb stairs and a very narrow road, so it was difficult to get there.

After that we visited in Goa KingKong. 

To sign in we just need to pay only as only, without any compulsion. In this cave there was also a large stone but resembles a kingkong face if seen from afar. 

After visited from Goa KingKong, we headed to Ammarrung. 

  

The Ammarrung is introduced by the people of Canada and Australia. To climb to Ammarrung we have to climb the stairs first. This place was good for taking pictures because the view is very beautiful, karst mountain. In this place the inhabitants work as merchants, such as coconut sellers. Very good drink during the day because the place was very hot. This place was just visited in 2013. In the month six many visited this place as many were transiting when wanting to Toraja.

After visited these three places, we gathered to return to the campus and continue the next day to go toPangkep.......

Day 2, in pangkep 

At 06.30 we gathered in front of the building orange again to do the absence and pray as in the first day. At 07.00 we went to the PANGKEP. And did the guiding again as before. And the place that will be visited there are three, namely Blacksmith, Traditional Market, and Batari.

Approximately 3 hours journey, we get to the blacksmith......

Blacksmith is a person who is smart or can make something from iron, namely knife and machete. Machete were made for 3 hours and and produce 14 or 16 machete every day. Various types of machete has its own code. which is done for generation. one of type of machete is sodik machete, and if we sold the price is at Rp 100.000 in the market and a small knife for Rp 10,000 - Rp 20.000 in the market. And even machete that we make has been impor up to merauke.

Next we will visit the traditional market.....

This market is named Central Market. This market is like in the market, there are selling fruits, cooking materials, household appliances, and others.

But in this market there is a dock  named Pangkajene Pier, which was just opened 2 years ago. This pier is a place where buyers come from other islands with the purpose of shopping and the transport of their original island. And there were ship who always can from another island, like kulambing island, sabutung island, karanrang island, and samatellu island for shopping. This dock is a biggest dock in pangkep. and the price park for one ship is Rp. 2.000.

And the last place to visit is Batari........

Typical pangkep with its icon that is boledong, then it creates a bussines that is Batari (BAndeng TAnpa DUri). where milkfish can be processed into varirous foods such as seaweed. the place where the Batari was first developed was Bulucindea. the cheapest product price in batari is Rp 10.000 and the result of his income is 115 million.
