Local comic character Si Juki is now available in the form of a Facebook sticker.

Character publishing company Pionicon reportedly worked together with Facebook to create illustrations based on Si Juki characters.

Indonesian netizens often use stickers when posting comments on Facebook, such as "nice info" or "izin share" (asking for permission to share a post).

According to Antara news agency, character creator Faza Meonk said Si Juki was the first Indonesian comic character to collaborate with Facebook. “Because [the sticker has been] released globally, hopefully Si Juki will be able to introduce Indonesia to the world,” Faza said in an official statement.

The sticker can be downloaded for free through the social media network. Netizens will be able to use it when posting a comment or sending a message through Facebook Messenger. (mas/kes)
