JAKARTA - The Retired Troops Raising the Pusaka Flag (Paskibraka) 2023 have taken the Red and White Heritage Flag and the Proclamation Text of the National Monument (Monas), Jakarta, Saturday, with a carnival entourage for the implementation of the 79th Anniversary (HUT) of the Republic of Indonesia in the Capital City of the Archipelago (IKN). The procession consists of the Paskibraka group and military troops from three dimensions as usual during the Indonesian Independence Day. The carnival is also equipped with a group of TNI AD Equestrian Detachment. "Usually the route is from Monas to the Merdeka Palace, but this time we will create history because it was held from Monas to the capital city of the archipelago," said Deputy for Protocol, Press and Media at the Presidential Secretariat Yusuf Permana at the location, quoted from ANTARA, Saturday, August 10.

He explained that the procession was led by the Head of the Presidential Secretariat (Kasetpres) Heru Budi and involved as many as 122 Paskibraka Purana personnel in 2023. In addition, there were 180 none brothers from DKI Jakarta as local wisdom. According to him, the kirab route started from Monas past the Merdeka Palace, then towards the Horse Statue to its destination, namely Halim Perdana Kusuma Airport. The estimation of the carnival trip, he said, would last about 1 hour and 15 minutes. "This is the first time the duplicate flag and text of the proclamation will go out to Jakarta to the New Capital City, at the State Palace, in the Archipelago," he said. He also asked the people of the homeland so that the journey of the Red and White Heritage Flag and the Proclamation Text from Jakarta to IKN run smoothly. "This is also a series of activities of the Indonesian Independence Day commemoration show so that it is our shared responsibility for the success of all events in the month of independence," he concluded.
