This year's Indonesian Independence Day ceremony is very different from previous ceremonies. Usually, the commemoration is only held at the Merdeka Palace, Jakarta. Now, the 79th Indonesian Independence Day ceremony is held at the State Palace of the Indonesian Capital (IKN), East Kalimantan.
This year's commemoration of the Republic of Indonesia's Independence Day is also a historic moment in the journey of the Indonesian nation. Because, for the first time, core events such as the Commemoration of the Seconds of the Proclamation, and the Raising of the Red and White Flag, were nationally centered in the IKN.
Interestingly, not only officials attended the event, a number of celebrities were also invited to the event held at the IKN. The presence of these celebrities successfully stole the attention. They appeared stunning in typical Indonesian clothing.
