Working for the Sake of Motherland
Who doesn't know simadu pineapple? The fruit, which is identical as a souvenir from Subang, is known for its sweet and refreshing taste. However, this article will not discuss about the simadu pineapple, but about the figure behind the development of Subang Regency, where the simadu pineapple originated.
Now, speaking of Subang, it's not good if you don't know Agus Masykur. Yes, Agus is the Deputy Regent of Subang for the 2018-2023 period. The man who was also born in Subang on August 4, 1972 is a politician from the Prosperous Justice Party (PKS).
