So this was evident in the use of “sampir” white color, which means purity and ketulusan.Pakubuwono IX famous as the king is very courageous in opposing the Dutch colonial administration as ruler of Indonesia at the time.

Actually brave stance against the Netherlands is based on the events that caused the death of her father namely Pakubuwono VI (Indonesian national hero) who died from the Netherlands were shot to death while serving his sentence thrown out of the island of Java when Pakubuwono VI died who should replace Pakubuwono IX became king when it still resides in mother’s womb Prameswari GKR Ageng still in the womb due to the age of 3 months then after Pakubuwono to VI who became king died Pakubuwono VII is Pakubuwono IX uncle died when Pakubuwono VII which replaced the position of king is the uncle Pakubuwono IX as Pakubuwono VII.

One Kasunanan Surakarta palace wealth is being pursued conservation are different types of dances that often adorn and become entertainment at various events held in the palace. Of the various types of dances are known to date is Serimpi Sangupati dance. Naming Sangupati itself turned out to be one form of maneuver in defeating the enemy.

This dance is deliberately on the pull as one form of politics to derail the agreement that will be held with the Dutch at that time.

Because already seduced by the beauty of dance combined with the increasing number of drinks or wine that ditegak then they (the Netherlands) and then drunk. Tail, the agreement which was originally to be held ultimately successfully thwarted. With the collapse of the agreement then the few areas mentioned above can be saved.

However, that should be highlighted in this dance is the courage of the warrior princess, which in this case represented by dancers serimpi it. Because if the strategy was wafted by the Dutch, then who will be their first casualties of the dancers.

Arguably they are soldiers in the front row of the result of the successful and whether the mission to thwart the agreement. So to obscure the fact that there are missions in the name of the dance the dance is called the Serimpi Sangaupati defined as Sangu starch.
