Bandung - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Recently, The mayor of Bandung, Dada Rosada, has publicized a new motto "Bermartabat", which is an acronym from Bersih (clean), Makmur (prosperous), Taat (religious obidience -mostly islamic-), Bersahabat (friendly). |
 | | AA Tarmana was the favourite in the 2004 mayoral election (elected by the state parliament, not direct election by the people), but overnight it was overturned when Dada Rosada was suddenly elected instead. |
 | | Ever since the mayor Dada Rosada came into power, Bandung has grown ever more islamic than ever, with the renovation of the great mosque which basically consumes the downtown city square, and the implementation of strict no prostitution state law (perda) which the mayor vows to clean up all prostitutes from the city. |
