This village was originally aja because his life is almost the same as the others. the place is occupied by approximately 35 heads of families have activities that are not much different from other villages. The men are looking for work and the women do the homework. but strangely the real kampung named Batuah for the past 10 years is filled by widows of various ages.
Most of them are aged 25 years and over the reasons menjandanya vary. some are left dead, the effects of divorce, some even the widow of some husbands into aja aja who means to have many couples but only one man left. Wow, there is also yes that embrace polyandri. Extraordinary.
- Was hot with the name of Kampung Janda
yes if that widow is sometimes viewed negatively by some people. Yet in fact it is not their own desire. But somehow many people are scornful of that status. As happened to this village. started from the flood disaster that had happened and one of the citizens interviewed by journalists.
Unintentionally a resident named Nurhansyah is conveyed if many victims are mostly widows. nah, from there reporters concluded that the place was dubbed Kampung Janda and then spread widely everywhere.
Nurhansyah felt hot and wanted to report to the police related to the mention of this beloved residence. but the people in the village did not agree and told let alone. Therefore, until now the name of Kampung Janda is attached to that location.
- Almost all houses are filled by widows
no one would have thought if the title was like a prayer for the village in this Banjarbaru. How come? From day to day more widows are scattered in every corner of the village. To the extent can be counted homes that no widow.
the head of the RT mentioned that only about three houses are unfilled widows. Most every home has two to three women who hold that status. There is as the head of the family and the child of the widow who has become a bachelor as well.

In this day and age, the widow does not know her age. Due to many marriages that occur between the ages of 20 to 24 years. whether because of what the woman became a widow at a very young age, may be due to divorce or the husband died.
As in this Widow's Village, many women of various ages have been granted widow status. was launched from the head of the local RT, that in this village the minimum age of widows is 25 while the maximum age is about 50 years and above. Is anyone interested?

therefore, these widows racked their brains to earn money at home.
And it turns out they make a souvenir typical for the tourists who visit there. souvenirs that are served are typical banjar fabric that is Sasirangan, precious stones and there are also light snacks Ampang and Dodol Kandangan. Well, productive all ya mothers here. Can live without relying on her husband.
