The President and Vice-President, along with other state officials, wear traditional clothes.

JAKARTA, KOMPAS — Indonesia was built from a heterogeneous society. President Joko Widodo expressed hoped that the nation’s diversity, as shown through the traditional attire worn during the flag-hoisting ceremony at Merdeka Palace, Jakarta, could be well accepted and understood by all.

“The most important thing we wanted to convey during the Aug. 17 celebration was diversity. I hope this message reaches the people,” the President said during a meeting with the nation’s role models and organizing teams of the 72nd anniversary of independence celebration on Friday (18/8) at Merdeka Palace in Jakarta.
