Last year's Independence Day celebration might have been one of the most memorable events for people in Belu regency, East Nusa Tenggara (NTT). A student named Yohanes “Joni” Gama was recorded on video climbing 12 meters to untangle the twisted flagpole rope during the flag-raising ceremony. The video went viral, and people praised Joni for his bravery.
