July 23, 2008, National Children’s Day was celebrated throughout Indonesia on July 23, 2008.  Various activities that urged everyone to care for Indonesian children were carried out.  Children were very happy because there were many activities that they could enjoy.

 

On Sunday, July 27, 2008, the Indonesian Child Protection Commission and the Social Department held an event to commemorate National Children’s Day on Jalan M.H. Thamrin in Central Jakarta.  From morning until evening, tens of thousands of children from various schools around Jakarta came and played.  They went from tent to tent and learned about different new things that could trigger children’s creativity.

 

Of the thousands of children that filled Jalan Thamrin were children from Apung Study House, RW 01, Kapuk, West Jakarta and DPR (Railway Tracks Outskirts) Bonang Study House, RW 06, Pegangsaan, Central Jakarta.  About 50 children from two study houses joined in and happily watched these merry activities.  The arrival of these children was organized by the Nurani Dunia Foundation and facilitated by XL, one of the cell phone operators that also participated in the Children’s Creativity Festival on Jalan Thamrin.
