Traditional games and a fun walk marked Indonesia’s 80th Independence Day celebration for the Indonesian community in Singapore
To commemorate the 80th Anniversary of the Independence of the Republic of Indonesia, the Embassy of the Republic of Indonesia (KBRI) in Singapore, with full support from various Indonesian diaspora organisations, held a vibrant celebration featuring traditional games and a fun walk.
The event brought together Indonesian citizens living in Singapore across all age groups, from young children to the elderly. With laughter and enthusiasm filling the air, participants joined in various traditional games that reflected Indonesia’s rich cultural heritage. The fun walk also added a festive spirit, encouraging togetherness and a healthy lifestyle among attendees.
The celebration served as more than just a commemoration—it was a heartfelt reminder of the shared values and cultural identity that unite Indonesians abroad. Organisers hoped the event would strengthen bonds within the Indonesian community and reignite a sense of national pride.
By incorporating both physical activity and cultural expression, the event succeeded in blending tradition with community spirit, showcasing the enduring relevance of Indonesian heritage even far from home.
