Jakarta, September 4, 2026 — Laughter, creativity, and camaraderie colored the Ministry of Primary and Secondary Education (Kemendikdasmen) Employee Gathering (Makrab) as part of the 81st Anniversary of Indonesian Independence commemoration. Beneath the joyous atmosphere, lurked an important message: togetherness is the energy that strengthens the spirit of service to the community and the nation.

Minister of Primary and Secondary Education (Mendikdasmen), Abdul Mu'ti, invited the entire Kemendikdasmen family to maintain the friendly and joyful atmosphere created during the event.

"We are all happy, we are all cheerful. And this is the atmosphere we need to build together," Abdul Mu'ti said in Jakarta (September 3).
