The river musi


This Musi river the length?
460 Km divided the South Sumatra Province from the east to the west that had many branches with eight big tributaries that is: the Komering River, Ogan, Lematang, Kelingi, Lakitan, Semangus Rawas and the Stick of the Leko day.
Because of that in South Sumatra was known with the nickname of the Stick of the Nine Day.
Why was named the Musi River and When this name began to be used, there is none that knew definitely.

This Musi name was received in India, the occurrence of Sriwijaya royal relations with the Indian kingdom or the name this was taken from one of the Kayuagung regional languages?
Musi meant to go along?
Did Musi mean the current, still must be reviewed.
When investigating this Musi River could be seen the settlement of the inhabitants like the Rakit House, PT. Pusri, Pertamina, Daerah Bagus Kuning, Mesjid Lawang Kidul, Mesjid Ki Merogan, Benteng Kuto Besak and the community's activity all along this river.
In these Musi River waters in every day was the Palembang City and the Birthday of the Proclamation of Republic of Indonesia Independence was held by the Bidar Boat race and the Hias Motorboat.
The community that witnessed periwisata this not only the Palembang community but also the community from from outside the Palembang City even foreign tourists.
To enjoy beauty of the Musi River could use Getek, speed Boat or for the party in large quantities could use the Cruise Ship?
The trembled Nature?
With the capacity? 200 people.
