INFOKU, BLORA -The naming of Jalan Pramoedya Ananta Toer has not taken place on Jalan Sumbawa.
In fact, the road has more historical value. Because, it is close to the Toer brothers' childhood home.
In fact, it was agreed that Jalan Pramoedya would be moved to a new road, precisely on the border road between Mlangsen and Beran Sub-districts.
The reason for moving the location to Jalan Pramoedya was because Pram 's family did not want to bother the residents of Jalan Sumbawa who had to take care of changes in population administration .

Because it is related to changing population administration.
"Indeed, this is the result of discussions (with residents), they are the ones who asked for it. Because if we change the road (Sumbawa), we will have to change the administration, starting from KTP, KK, land certificates, and so on," he explained.

"The result of our meeting with Mbak Titi, Pak Pram's daughter, understands this. Doesn't have a problem," he explained. (Endah/ IST )
