PT United Tractors Tbk (UT) reaffirms its commitment to preserving and promoting Indonesia’s rich traditional arts to the world through the participation of its fostered dance troupe at the World Expo 2025 Osaka. From August 20–22, 2025, the Karsa Budaya Nuswantara Dance Troupe from Sumbergondo Village, Mount Arjuno, performed at the Indonesia Pavilion.

Under the grand theme “Thriving in Harmony: Nature, Culture, Future,” the dancers presented a series of deeply meaningful performances, including Ontran-Ontran Giri Wono, Indrokilo, Guntaraya, Arjuna Wiwaha, and Trenggana Sumapala Sang Turangga.

ONTRAN – ONTRAN GIRI WONO INDROKILO BARONG SEMBUR GENI was performed by eight talented dancers from Karsa Budaya Nuswantara, a cultural troupe fostered by United Tractors.
The dance depicts a great battle between the gods and the Newata kingdom, led by King Niwatakawaca, a powerful giant driven by ambition to conquer the heavens. At the same time, Arjuna is meditating on Mount Indrokilo, fervently praying to the gods for a divine weapon to defeat the Kurawa in the great Bharatayudha War. With courage and unwavering determination, he triumphs over Niwatakawaca, restoring peace to the divine realm. This legendary tale is famously known as ARJUNA WIWAHA.

TRENGGANA SUMAPALA SANG TURANGGA was gracefully performed by eight passionate dancers from Karsa Budaya Nuswantara, a cultural troupe fostered by United Tractors. This performance is more than just a dance—it is a profound reflection of the indomitable spirit of perseverance. It portrays the journey of the human soul as it faces storms of temptation and obstacles; how the restless mind and dark desires (angkara) are tested until one reaches the highest level of awareness and surrenders to Sang Mahadewa, the Supreme Divine.
