JAKARTA - The figure of the flag bearer in the Flag Raising Troop (Paskibra) always attracts netizens. In the flag-raising ceremony to commemorate Indonesia's independence at the Merdeka Palace, August 17, 2021, Ardelia Muthia Zahwa acted as the flag bearer of the Tangguh Indonesia team.
He is a representative from North Sumatra Province who was born on December 6, 2004 in Tebing Tinggi and studied at SMA Harapan I Medan. Before carrying the flag, Ardelia admitted that she asked her parents for blessing.
"Alhamdulillah, I am very happy. I thank my parents who have prayed for me and all of my friends. Hopefully later in the implementation we can carry out our duties successfully and smoothly," he was quoted as saying from the Presidential Secretariat's YouTube channel, Tuesday, August 16.
The other three from Group 8 who were tasked with raising the flag were Aditya Yogi Susanto as Commander of Group 8 representing Gorontalo Province, Dika Ambiya Rahman as flag bearer representing West Java Province, and Ridho Hadfizar Armadhani as flag hoist representing Lampung Province.
At the drop of the flag, Ayara will be in charge of carrying the flag of the Growing Indonesia team. He said he couldn't believe he had the opportunity.
"I can't believe it, I'm happy, moved, sad. Not everyone can become a flag bearer. We hope to be successful and united in raising and lowering the flag today," said Ayara.
