National Press Day (HPN) is celebrated every February 9, coinciding with the anniversary of the Indonesian Journalists Association. This commemoration is based on Presidential Decree No. 5 of 1985, signed by President Soeharto on January 23, 1985.
Just like BPS-Statistics, which is responsible for collecting and presenting accurate data, the press plays a crucial role in gathering and disseminating objective information to the public. In the digital era, the press serves as an effective bridge between the government and society, ensuring transparency and raising public awareness.
The theme of National Press Day (HPN) 2025 is "The Press Safeguarding Food Security for National Independence," highlighting the crucial role of the press in supporting food security as a foundation for national self-sufficiency. This aligns with the government's strategic programs in the agricultural sector.
The HPN 2025 logo features a proboscis monkey, a native primate of South Kalimantan, dressed in traditional attire. This design represents local wisdom and the spirit of the press in upholding national values and diversity.
Let’s support a professional and responsible press in maintaining information stability and guiding the nation’s progress toward a golden Indonesia.
