JAKARTA – In an achievement for Indonesia’s creative industry, heavy metal band Voice of Baceprot have become the country’s first music act to play at the prestigious Glastonbury Festival in England.
Earlier in June, streaming giant Netflix released Nightmares And Daydreams, an original series by local film-maker Joko Anwar, which has made it to most-watched lists not just in the archipelago, but also in countries like Singapore, Malaysia and Vietnam. Two other made-in-Indonesia Netflix hits from 2023, documentary Ice Cold and period drama Cigarette Girl, were also on most-watched lists globally and were streamed by millions of people.
ST had reported in 2023 about the rise of made-in-Indonesia video games based on local culture that were well received by the global gaming community and also played a part in introducing Indonesian culture to the world. One of the first of its kind in Indonesia, the action-packed crime thriller centres on Indonesia’s past in the 1800s and tells the story of a man who encounters a group of supernatural bandits and gets involved in high-stake clashes with the authorities.
Recognising the potential of the creative sector, the government has been proactive in supporting artists. These planned laws will now target only online game publishers, rather than offline traditional ones, following discussions that officials had with local game associations.
