Indonesia celebrated itt's 66th Independence Day on Wednesday August 17. The independence day is celebrated to mark the procamation of Indonesian independence on August 17, 1945 (from the colonial rule of Dutch, Portuguese and Japanese for 300 years). The independence day is also called as Hari Proklamasi Kemerdekaan Republik Indonesia or just Hari Proklamasi.
A song titled 'Untuk Bumiku' (For my Earth) written by President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono was sung on Wednesday during Independence Day celebrations. "Unite, Friends, for our earth,” was the theme of the song.
Wishing all the Indonesians a very HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY.
