JAKARTA - Farel Prayoga made the atmosphere of the commemoration of the 77th Indonesian Independence Day at the Merdeka Palace, Jakarta, even more lively today, Wednesday, August 17. Singing Denny Caknan's song Ojo Dibandingke, Farel made the Merdeka Palace "sway".

A number of ministers and invited guests of the proclamation of the proclamation of the 77th anniversary of the Republic of Indonesia were engrossed in dancing when the Banyuwangi-born boy sang.

Farel, whose voice is often used on TikTok, got his turn to sing after the Gita Bahan Nusantara Choir performed a number of songs, including folk songs. When singing, his melodious voice made President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) who sat accompanied by Vice President Ma'ruf Amin smile.

President Jokowi has also stood up several times. The first lady, Iriana, who sits to the right of President Jokowi, has also moved her head several times.

After the song performed the song Ojo Dibandingke, Farel actually performed a song entitled Joko Tingkir. It's just that, due to technical problems, he ended up bringing back the previous song.

Several ministers then came forward one by one. Initially, the Minister of Finance Sri Mulyani together with the Minister of Manpower Ida Fauziyah and the Minister of Foreign Affairs Retno Marsudi seemed invited to come forward to dance by actor Reza Rahardian who was the invited guest.

From the other invited seats, the National Police Chief General Listyo Sigit Prabowo also appeared to be dancing.

After Farel performed this song, the participants of the ceremony returned to their respective places. The ceremony was dismissed, President Jokowi and Vice President Ma'ruf Amin left the ceremony venue.
