Singkawang in West Kalimantan has an attraction that makes the hair shiver. It is the attraction of the Tatung Parade, which takes place 15 days after Imlek aka closing of the Lunar New Year series. His place is in Central Market.
During the Tatung parade, the participants will bring a variety of sharp weapons, from knives, machetes, swords to motorcycle gears. A moment later, they will stab or shoot the sharp objects to themselves. With the power of magic Mandraguna, they will not feel pain. Tatung itself aims to ward off misfortune.
