The 79th Anniversary of the Republic of Indonesia on Saturday (17/8) has been held in the Capital City of the Archipelago for the first time. Starting from the flag raising this morning, to the flag lowering ceremony which began at 17.00 WITA, it was successfully carried out.
The entire ceremonial process was carried out by all ceremonial officers, starting from President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) as the ceremony inspector, to the ceremony participants, namely the invited guests present at the State Palace.
However, the moment of the ceremony is usually a highlight for the Flag Raising Troops or Paskibraka. Those who come from various regions in Indonesia are the sons and daughters of the nation who are chosen to be officers who raise and lower the flag in the Indonesian independence ceremony.
If this morning there was Livenia Evelyn Kurniawan who carried a tray containing the heirloom flag, now at the flag-lowering ceremony there was Ni Komang Tri Setia who stole the public's attention. Yes, this beautiful girl who represents Bali is tasked with delivering the flag that has been raised to the ceremony inspector, namely Jokowi.
Ni Komang Tri Setia is one of two students from Bali who passed the 2024 National Paskibraka selection. Tri Setia passed with a student from Buleleng, Anak Agung Ngurah Panji Dharma Putra.
Her graceful portrait while marching with Paskibraka caught the attention of netizens. Well, summarized by brilio.net on Saturday (17/8), here is a portrait of Ni Komang Tri Setia carrying the flag lowering tray at IKN .
