But the governor think catfish and kecapi fruit are productiv land in Bekasi until the governor think that both of them are good to be an icon.
But the citizen were thinking that both of them arent good to be an icon in Bekasi because the character of catfish is ravenous and if we sell that fish, the price is cheap, same with kecapi fruit so in their opinion catfish and kecapi fruit aren’e good to be icon. Finally the citizen make a protess to their governor but the governor never solve that problem. And in April,24 2002 some communities came to the catfish’statue and then they burned that statue. After that situation the citizen have some idea to make a new statue with new icon like gabus’fish and rambutan but when 2010 there was a quiz for that icon. Finally the icon changes into Clock, it calls “Jam Gadang”. Even Catfish’statue has changed into The Clock but Catfish’statue has made history for citizen of bekasi.
