Indonesia is gearing up to celebrate its 80th Independence Day with the theme “United in Sovereignty, Prosperous People, Advancing Indonesia.” This theme reflects a deep reflection on unity, emphasizing harmony and cooperation among the Indonesian people in upholding the nation’s character. According to Noudhy Valdryno, from the Presidential Communication Office (PCO), the commitment to unity is crucial in achieving welfare for the people. President Prabowo Subianto’s dedication to improving public well-being is evident through various programs like the Free Nutritious Meals (MBG) and People’s School initiatives. These efforts aim to provide a better life foundation for the younger generation.
Furthermore, the vision of “Advancing Indonesia” highlights the nation’s aspiration to become a developed country by enhancing global competitiveness and infrastructure. This progress aims to provide expanded opportunities for self-development, equitable access to education, and a growing sense of national pride. The 80th Independence Day logo symbolizes unity through its core shape, representing Indonesia’s sovereignty. The Manifestation Line within the logo embodies the collective journey of the Indonesian people towards a more just and equitable life. Finally, the complete form of the logo reflects a progressive and interconnected Indonesia that continues to drive sustainable progress across the archipelago.
In today’s digital age, transparency, policy clarity, and public trust are essential elements for national advancement. The government hopes that the Indonesian people will become more discerning in facing modern communication challenges, particularly those posed by misinformation. As the country prepares for the 80th Independence Day celebrations, collaboration between various sectors of society is vital. The official logo, designed by Bram Patria Yoshugi, emphasizes the spirit of “Joint Ownership, Shared Celebration,” promoting collective pride as a driving force towards a sovereign, prosperous, and progressive Indonesia. President Prabowo Subianto himself was involved in selecting the design with the most powerful meaning among 245 submissions.
