章節 126: The New Java

Semarang DDay +56

Today is a special day. As soon as the first light shone on the city of Semarang, the people have started walking out on the street and went to the city center of Semarang City. They headed to the five-way intersection which is centered around a huge park that is about the size of four soccer fields, which is called "Simpang Lima". All of these people were informed that the gathering time was 8 in the morning, but the field has been filled with thousands of people much earlier.

A simple stage has been prepared and there's a tall pole standing in the middle of the street. The side of the stage is filled with dozens of VIPs: high ranking soldiers, cabinet members, religious leaders, community elders, etc. 

It's now exactly 8 am in the morning and the number of people that have gathered at the field counted around 500,000. The place is fully packed, but everyone is patiently waiting.
