Approaching the celebration of the 80th Indonesian Independence Day, the viral video of the One Piece flag was installed at home and vehicles as a symbol of resistance to government policies that were considered not pro-people.
Not only that, the mural of the 'One Piece' flag was even depicted on the village road in Sragen, Central Java, before it was finally deleted.
