In addition to product exhibitions, Indonesia Fair was also filled with various performances of Indonesian arts and culture performed by Indonesian art centres in Osaka and surrounding areas, namely Manik Kusuma, Hanajoss, Pasir Bintang, Wayan and Ayu, Indonesian Student Union in Osaka Nara, Indonesian Student Union in Kyoto-Shiga, and business actors. During the event, visitors were treated to Balinese dance performances, shadowless puppets, angklung, Indonesian contemporary dance, Sundanese dance, and a fashion show by Dian Oerip.
"Hopefully, through this activity, the Japanese people can get to know Indonesia better and build a positive perception of Indonesia's superior products, cultural arts and tourism sector so that it can further strengthen relations between the two countries, which will enter their 65th anniversary in 2023," continued Consul General Diana.
During the opening ceremony, the Consul General witnessed the presentation of the Forest Restoration Project - SDGs Together award to APP Japan's customer who is dedicated to SDGs development in Indonesia. Indonesia Fair 2023 at AEON Mall Itami is a continuation of a similar event held at AEON Mall Saitama in May 2023. (WHY)
