Indonesia had been a Dutch colony for more than 300 years where a group of revolutionaries avowed independence on 17 August 1945 two days later the Emperor's laying down of arms in the Pacific. August 17 rejoices Indonesia's independence from Dutch colonial rule. The day has been referred to by Indonesians as Hari Merdeka or Tujuhbelas Agustus . It stands for a spectacle of the extreme esteem and honour for the flag and the Republic as the straightest ceremony is the flag hoisting at the National Palace. An almighty parade of floats and marching bands begin near the National Monument. Besides, Panjat Pinang (slippery pole climbing), eating and cooking contests (shrimp chips, Krupuk, nasi tumpeng), bike decorating, races and lots of fun fill the day. In the midst of festivities and colourful splendour, Wishes Diary has come up with Happy Wishes and Messages to add more colour. Come and use these wishes to further the joy of this freedom with your loved ones everywhere around.
