Research gap:
Many studies discussed that public rituals are a way to promote bond among the religious groups.

This study will critically examine how public rituals (e.g., halal bi halal)--which usually promoted by governments--will also lead to negative effect for the interreligious relation.

Problem:
Idul fitri holiday and halal bi halal rituals (which has more days than the other religion). The government used the majority perspective and only support the public rituals from majority.

Worth investigating:
Government's support to certain group potentially can lead to discrimination or disagrement among the religious groups.

Case in Yogyakarta: Sekaten of Kraton Ngayogyakarta Hadiningrat

- Sekaten is an occassion that tried to include local arts and cultures in religious ceremonial such as Maulud (the birth of prophet Muhammad celebration)
- The art & culture media: gamelan, gunungan, wayangan

How the event can help to adress the topic:
- a proof of the Islam syncretism with local culture
- still supported by local government and muslim society in Yogyakarta
