Indonesia’s traditional music
instrument, the ’Angklung’, is soon to be officially delared a world
heritage item by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural
Organization (UNESCO) like batik, wayang, and the keris before. “On November 18, angklung will be declared a world
heritage article ,” Wardiyanto, secretary general of the Tourism and Culture
Ministry, said here Thursday. He said the ministry had made intensive efforts to
convince UNESCO of the need to recognize angklung as one of the
world’s heritage items like batik, the keris (ceremonal dagger) and
wayang (Javanese traditional puppets) which had obtained the world heritage
status earlier, he said. The efforts to get the angklung included in the
Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, were made
for the first time years ago, he said. “We plan to have more things of Indonesian
culture recognized as part of the world’s heritage,” he said.
At present a total of 890 objects world wide
are on UNESCO’s world heritage list and 689 of them are in the culture
category, 176 in the nature category and 25 in both the culture and
nature categories. Of the 890 objects with world heritage
status 11 were Indonesian with four of them in the nature, three in
the culture and four in the intangible culture categories.
The Indonesian natural heritages consist of Ujung Kulon National Park in Banten
Province, Komodo National Park in East Nusa Tenggara, Lorentz National Park in
West Papua province, and Sumatran tropical forests comprising the Gunung
Leuser, Kerinci Sablat and Bukit Barisan national parks.
The three cultural heritages are the Borobudur
Temple, Prambanan Temple, and Sangiran Pre-historical site. The intangible
world heritages from Indonesia were the wayang and keris which were
recognized as masterpieces of the oral and intangible heritage of humanity in
2003 and 2005, and also batik as a tangible cultural heritage of humanity in
2009.
