Today is Indonesia's National Day.
As usual, there will be a flag raising ceremony at both Indonesian Embassy and Consulate anywhere in this planet. For most of us living overseas, we always try to attend this once a year celebration (hey come on, its Independence Day) and what most people are waiting for is the late afternoon gathering.
So late afternoon today, we will be having a gathering at Dolphin Park. There will be games (some silly ones, participated by all adult) such as makan kerupuk race (eating cracker race), shack race (pacu karung) and tarik tambang (tug of war) and normally there would be some Jajanan Pasar (Indonesian food !!!). They are contributed from some of Indonesian here too. It is the moment that everybody is waiting for.
This is how we the Indonesian are celebrating our National Day at home and overseas. How do you guys celebrate your National Day back home? and what about when you are away from your home or Country?
