Rambu Solo Funeral in Lo'Ko Uru, to honor Uru Philippus Possali and Albertina Allo, the elderly couple who died only three months apart from each other. Their families did not wait for long to schedule a date for the funeral. That’s quite rare, others preserve the Toma Kula’ – the sick- up to several years if not decades until they can agree on a funeral date, but also to save up enough for the precious event.
Provisionally, an arena made of bamboo has been set up during the previous months, to accommodate the extended family, as well as other guests. Roughly 800 guests will be attending the five-day event.
