CUPANG, 16/4 - SUBSCRIBE. Locals brought the traditional dances of peats when receiving the leaders of Larantuka Catholic people, Bishop Mgr Francis Kopong Kung and his vanity, in Lamanabi, East Flores, NTT, Wednesday (15/4). The establishment of Portuguese colonialism accompanied by Catholic missionaries around the 16th century led to the rapid development of Catholic religions in the eastern nusantara region, especially in the East Flores section which then blends with local cultural elements.
