To celebrate, our fashion shoot this month carries the colours of the nation’s flag in a brilliantly chic fashion. Continuing the celebratory mood, join us as we visit the bustling oil-rich city of Tarakan, which played a vital role in securing the country’s independence and now boasts a proud and vivid history matched by its colourful culture. Then we head to the Batak homeland of Lake Toba, Samosir and Tapanuli to reveal the natural beauty of this North Sumatran paradise, which will play host to the height of Independence Day celebrations this year with Jokowi set to lead the festivities on August 17. Following our patriotic travel itinerary, we move on to South Korea, where old and new – traditional and contemporary – combine to create a fantastic shopping scene in Seoul. And lastly, as Indonesia and Brunei seek to strengthen cooperation with each other in the tourism sector, we make a final stop in Brunei’s capital to embark on a journey of discovery, uncovering the country’s true treasures. Agustus ini merupakan bulan yang bertepatan dengan Hari Kemerdekaan Bangsa Indonesia ke-71. Guna merayakannya, pada halaman mode kami, warna bendera kebanggaan Indonesia dikemas cantik dalam gaya fesyen. Masih dengan semangat kemerdekaan, kami mengajak Anda berkunjung ke Tarakan, kota kaya minyak yang memainkan peranan penting dalam menjaga kemandirian negara, dengan latar belakang sejarah dan juga keragaman kultur penduduknya. Dari sana, kami lanjut menuju tanah kediaman masyarakat Batak: Danau Toba, Samosir dan Tapanuli guna menyingkap keindahan alam Sumatera Utara, yang pada 17 Agustus ini, menjadi pusat perayaan hari Kemerdekaan Indonesia dan dihadiri langsung oleh Jokowi. Melanjutkan destinasi dalam daftar perjalanan, kami berpindah ke Korea Selatan, di mana dahulu dan kini, unsur tradisional dan kontemporer, berpadu dan menciptakan nuansa belanja yang fantastis di Seoul. Dan seiring dijalinnya kerja sama antara Indonesia dan Brunei dalam sektor pariwisata, kami pun singgah di ibu kota Brunei sebagai titik tolak perjalanan dalam mengenal lebih dekat kekayaan pariwisata negara ini. 7/25/16 4:22 PM EDITORIAL BOARD Benny S.
