Since then Mangkoso is known as the city of 'pangngaji'. Nicknamed a quiet place, the inhabitants live in peace. There is no thief ever existed in there. In fact, if any of the people commit adultery, Gurutta immediately notified.

He then told the community that the person was expelled from the village.

Gurutta requested that the old traditions of society contrary to the teachings of Islam, such as glorifying the stones of graves and large trees immediately stopped.

Gurutta even ordered that the tombstones that had been dismantled into the foundation of the road to be trodden by the community to show that the stones have no meaning.

During the reign of Arung Peta Cowa, he maintained the tradition. But before breathing his last breath, Petta Cowa ordered that the practice containing the element of khurafat was immediately stopped.
