Tomalou Fishermen Village Festival (FKNT)
Festival Kampung Nelayan Tomalou (FKNT) is an event aimed at promoting the cultural attractions and local wisdom of a fishing village with rich diversity that can serve as a tourism draw. The event also plays a role in raising awareness, strengthening social cohesion, and fostering creative education efforts to enhance the community's capacity to preserve and maintain cultural heritage, which is a valuable legacy from ancestral civilizations.
FKNT is expected to inspire collective awareness within the community to preserve the historical, cultural, and traditional values of the fishing community, which are at risk of disappearing. Additionally, this event holds educational value that can motivate the community to protect local wisdom and strengthen maritime literacy within the framework of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia (NKRI). Moreover, FKNT helps promote the culture of the Tomalou Fisherman Village to the wider public.
