Walked past away a group of people

  • When walking past a group of people (older youth, mothers, or fathers) who are sitting or standing at a location, one should walk with a 45ᵒ bow. 
  • The bow is followed by the right hand in front of the body. Say "Nuwun Sewu" or "Excuse me", then nod the head once, then smile when passing a group of people.Nuwun Sewu” atau “Permisi”, lalu menganggukkan kepala satu kali, lantas tersenyum ketika melewati sekumpulan orang. 
  • Not saying anything and not caring about the group of people being passed shows impoliteness and unfriendliness.
