PORTALJABAR, BANDUNG CITY - A number of streets and parks in Bandung City are becoming more beautiful and beautiful with the presence of red Katsuba flowers.

The Bandung City Government deliberately placed Katsuba flowers to welcome Eid al-Fitr 1445 Hijriah.

The Katsuba flower known as Poinsettia is a subtropical plant originating from southern Mexico and Central America.

The poinsettia is named after the United States' first ambassador to Mexico, Joel Roberts Poinsett, who introduced this ornamental plant to the US in 1825.

With its attractive colors and unique flower beauty, it is hoped that the presence of the Katsuba Flower will bring happiness and tranquility to city residents.

Acting The Mayor of Bandung, Bambang Tirtoyuliono, said that this step was an effort by the Bandung City Government to beautify the city and provide a memorable experience for residents during the Idul Fitri 1445 H celebration.

"We remember that the presence of Katsuba flowers in parks and city streets can be a pleasant sight and beautify the atmosphere of the city during Eid al-Fitr celebrations," he said.

Meanwhile, the Head of the Housing and Settlement Areas Service (DPKP), Rizki Kusrulyadi, said that the Bandung City Regional Government is trying to organize a number of areas which are the showcases for the City of Bandung so that they remain well maintained and beautiful.

"One way is to install poinsettias which grow periodically," explained Rizki.

Apart from ensuring the katsuba flowers, Rizki will assign a number of officers to guard and select a number of parks during this Eid holiday season.

"DPKP during the Eid holiday places officers in active parks that are usually visited by the public. "They still maintain the park and clean up the rubbish there," he said.

Rizki ensured that this effort was a form of the Bandung City Government's commitment to providing the best service to residents and creating a comfortable and beautiful city to enjoy together during the Idul Fitri 1445 H celebration. (Diskominfo Bandung City/Fauziah)
