Although Serang is capital of Banten, Serang is not a big town. Moreover, the biggest town in Banten is Tangerang. What makes Serang became the capital is it's location: It's in the center of Banten. Another reason is that Serang was the capital of Banten Kingdom.
I love Serang atmosphere: not really quiet and not really crowd. There is no huge shopping center in Serang, because the citizen prefer to go to the market. There are no theatre, discotique, and another nightlife spot. But Serang is full of office and education center - That's what make me proud of it. Serang education is well-known for it's feat. So, many Cilegon and Pandeglang citizen are working and studying in Serang.
What make me little bit ashamed about Serang is the people culture: indiscipline, corrupcy, nepothism, and collusion. These diseases is making Serang's development grow slowly. Unfortunatelly, its cannot be elliminated soon. It's need a long time healing.
In the fact, Serang is encountering a transition: from regency to city. This transition give it negative and positive effects. The negative is Serang will be crowded and face a cultural clash. And the positive is Serang will be more discipline and will have a good government with a good bureaucracy. Unfortunatelly, this transition is unstoppable and i just can do is hope that
Serang will be better: take the positives and throw the negatives.
