Jakarta’s Vice Governor, Rano Karno, believes public screenings of the World Cup offer more than just a shared viewing experience. He views these "nobar" (nonton bareng – watch together) events as important platforms for building community cohesion among Jakarta’s citizens. Karno emphasized the significance of bringing people together through a shared passion for football. These screenings provide a space for interaction and strengthen relationships within the diverse Jakarta population. The Vice Governor highlights the communal aspect as being as valuable as the football itself. He sees these events contributing to a stronger sense of unity and belonging throughout the city during the tournament. This initiative aims to leverage the World Cup’s popularity for positive social impact.
