T
oday, The Jakarta Post marks its 34th anniversary, and as always, we want to celebrate this important occasion with our readers, business partners and all other stakeholders. To mark the occasion we are launching our paywall, which will present our subscribers with exclusive premium digital content. This is an inevitable move to ensure our sustainability and ability to provide the highest quality content and give loyal readers the best we have to deliver.
With the rapid changes in information and communication technology, there is almost always something new on offer. The internet opens up boundless possibilities, limited only by our own imagination and creativity. Expect more changes as the Post adapts to the changing technological environment and completes the migration to the digital world.
We are building and developing our online presence, investing in each new technology as it comes, and investing in our staff to enhance the knowledge and skills needed for a media outlet to survive and thrive in the 21st century.
While the Post’s print edition remains a vital part of our operation, we have become a preeminent internet portal that provides news and information, primarily but not exclusively on Indonesia, in English. Today, we are reaching out to readers in distant places and in real time. Our community of readers, limited in the past to just Indonesia, has now expanded to all corners of the world.
Indonesia’s international profile is rising, politically, economically and culturally, and we take pride in our role in reporting every single important development about the country and its increasing global role. We take Indonesia’s foreign affairs seriously and we closely report on the emergence of the ASEAN community, including this year’s 50th anniversary of the founding of ASEAN.
If there is one thing that has not changed since the Post hit the streets on April 25, 1983, it is our commitment to meeting your need for credible and timely news and information. We are eternally grateful for your patronage and loyalty, and for the trust you have placed in us. We are convinced more than ever about our signature journalism: “Always Bold and Always Independent.”
The Post has gone through good and bad times in the last 34 years, and we could not have come this far without your support. We look forward to having the opportunity to serve you, readers, business partners and all other stakeholders, for many more years to come.
As an expression of our gratitude, please accept this flower as a symbol of our relationship with you, which we will continue to nurture, so that it keeps growing and blooming.
Thank you
