Tangeranging at it's best!

The Orang Tangerangi’s surpassed themselves again this week with yet another display of fuckwittery.

On this occasion a scene straight out of “The Exorcist” was played out in the streets, with, it appears, no-one noticing that something was amiss.

During a protest rally, twelve of the group started

“writhing, shrilling and staring blankly as if possessed by spirits, locally know as kesurupan.”

As the Jakarta Post further explained…

One of the 12 allegedly possessed workers from PT Satia Liprindo claimed to be the Queen of the South Sea, or Nyi Roro Kidul as she is known in Javanese legend.

"I am Nyi Roro Kidul, you all leave now," she said, walking slowly and speaking in a deep voice.

Later some workers reportedly lost consciousness at the factory compound in Batu Ceper, Tangerang municipality.

The drama did not stop about 300 other workers from continuing the rally and voicing their demands.

The reason for the rally….

The company's labor union chairman Budi Haryanto said the workers also demanded the company's president director take action against the directors and human resources division for allowing a rift to develop between the management and workers. They claimed management had banned workers from establishing a labor union at the company.

Now don’t get me wrong, I have nothing against labour unions, but, when the shop stewards start doing a King Canute and kesurupanning around, one wonders what their next set of demands will be.

PS: I’ll let you know how Tera Patrick is when she “comes” around!
