On the sidelines of this activity, the Panglima TNI together with the TNI Main Officer (PJU) also carried out offroad activities. This activity was carried out with the aim of enabling TNI officials to instill a love of nature and experience adventure in environmentally friendly vehicles.
This off-road activity is also very beneficial for military soldiers because it can train their adrenaline to be more enthusiastic and passionate. Offroad can also encourage courage to go through the streets and try to conquer them. With training like this, courage will automatically be cultivated so that you will be braver and more alert in facing all problems.
