“Banyuwangi is a sacred land. Right at this point (Banyuwangi) GP Ansor was established in 1934 (9th Muktamar NU on 21—26 April 1934). Not far away is the tomb of the muassis (founder) of NU KH As'ad Syamsul Arifin. And this place is the founding of the Kingdom of Blambangan in the 16th century, after Majapahit,” Gus Addin said.

On this occasion also, Gus Addin conveyed that Abdullah Azwar Anas is the Advisory Board of PP GP Ansor period 2024-2029.

“Don't forget, he's an advisor to all of us. Therefore, he became Minister for RB, Minister of Empowerment of Ansor and Banser,” said Gus Addin, who was greeted with laughter from all the audience.

On the occasion, Gus Addin also alluded to Indonesia's growing tourism industry, and one of them in Banyuwangi. Therefore, it is important to take care of the comfort of the visiting tourists.

“Then the most important thing is to take care of the tourists, the people who visit. It makes sure they feel comfortable, safe and happy,” Gus Addin said.

The Cirebon born man then added how important Ansor cadres take on the role of taking advantage of the great opportunities of tourism throughout Indonesia by developing competence as a BNSP certified tourism guide as a solemn part of the ideology for the organization.

“This is part solemn, part ideological, hablul minal nature,” he concluded.

In the Ansor Go Green series, GP Ansor also made the climb to Kawan Ijen, raising the red and white flag and GP Ansor at the site.

Before the launch of Ansor Go Green, there was also a pilgrimage to the Tomb of KhR As'ad Samsul Arifin as well as a pilgrimage to KHR Azaim Ibrahimy Nurse Ponpes Salafiyah Shafiiyah, followed by a pilgrimage to Lubang Buaya Cemetuk and where GP Ansor was founded, namely the Kiai Saleh Lateng Lateng Banyuwangi boarding school.
