An unforgettable Independence Day celebration has graced the atmosphere of Great Giant Foods (GGF) this year. In the spirit of patriotism and togetherness, GGF employees and management commemorated the 78th anniversary of Indonesia’s independence which was celebrated at Sequis Tower, Tuesday (15/8).
The event, which was carried out with great enthusiasm, became an unforgettable moment. That morning, the atmosphere of joy and emotion was palpable when the national anthem “Indonesia Raya” began to be sung together by all employees led by Viasido Sarumpaet, Manager of HR Compliance.
All employees from various departments gathered enthusiastically, wearing red and white themed clothes. The event was enlivened by competitions such as eating crackers, ball relay, ball grabbing and money scooping.
The series of events didn’t just stop there. The speech session delivered by the President Director of GGF, Tommy Wattimena, about the meaning of independence and our role in maintaining the integrity of the nation was a profound moment. Not to forget, the tumpeng cutting ceremony represented by the Directors expressed gratitude and hope for the freedom that had been achieved.
The excitement peaked when the winners were announced and prizes were awarded, starting from the group that won the competition to the employees who wore the best red and white clothes. The event closed with a lunch together which strengthened bonds between employees, creating a warm and intimate work environment.
Independence is a manifestation of the sacrifice and long struggle of our predecessors. Through the August 17 celebration at Sequis Tower, Great Giant Foods reminded every employee of their responsibility to continue to protect and advance the nation. The same fighting spirit flows in every step of this organization, leading us towards a more glorious future.
This celebration of independence will remain etched in memory as a priceless moment where Great Giant Foods celebrated not only the country’s independence, but also the freedom that we fought for together. Like a big family united in heart and vision, we celebrate the freedom to achieve common goals, as well as the goals that inspire us to continue working for mutual glory. In every step we take, the spirit of unity and dedication to progress will always shine through, reminding us of the importance of synergy in achieving a brighter future.
