What values do you want the government to learn from your choice of Ogoh-ogoh?

In English

Friends, this ogoh-ogoh named Giant Wong Samar was created by Sekaa Truna Dharma Kencana, Penusuan Banjar, Tegallalang Village, Gianyar. Wong Samar is a type of Bhuta Kala that cannot be seen by humans. However, his voice and behavior could be felt. Wong Samar's activities are harassing humans. That is what makes Hindus paraded the ogoh-ogoh on Pengrupukan day, signifying the blind defeat of Kala on earth. So friends, from these ogoh-ogoh the government should work in a transparent manner, not covertly like strangers let alone using state treasury money. If you dare to do such evil things, society will burn you. Worth it guys?

Jika berani melakukan hal yang jahat seperti itu maka akan dibakar oleh masyarakat. Patut teman-teman?
