IndonesianTalk.com — A bigger television offers something buyers can see immediately: more screen. Whether it offers better value takes a closer look. For a household planning to replace its TV, the decision involves money set aside, space available and a device expected to serve everyday needs. An attractive upgrade has to make sense within those limits. TCL Indonesia is making its case through the “Add a Little, Get MUCH BIGGER” campaign. In company material, the brand compares the additional cost of moving to a larger television with the increase in viewing area. The message is straightforward. A relatively small increase in spending, TCL says, can bring a noticeably larger display. Understanding that offer begins with two questions: how much larger, and at what final price? More Screen, but What Else Changes? TCL gives several examples of how screen area grows with size. Moving from a 32-inch television to a 40-inch model…

Political Elites, Disaster and the 2029 Election: Between Image-Building and a Wounded Public
IndonesianTalk.com — Political Elites, Disaster and the 2029 Election: Between Image-Building and a Wounded Public YOGYAKARTA — Indonesia’s disaster season shows little sign of easing, with thousands of people affected by floods, landslides, forest fires, extreme weather and other hazards. Yet as communities struggle with recurring disasters, the attention of much of the country’s political elite appears increasingly focused on the 2029 elections. Official data from the National Disaster Mitigation Agency (BNPB), as of Sept. 7, recorded 1,730 disasters across Indonesia since the beginning of the year. Forest and land fires accounted for the largest share, with 627 incidents, followed by floods with 543, extreme weather with 324, landslides with 105 and droughts with 101. There were also 14 tidal floods and abrasion incidents, 13 earthquakes and three volcanic eruptions. The figures have renewed questions about whether disaster management has become a political priority — or remains largely a matter of…
The Bayan Price Mystery: When Markets Need Answers, Not Speculation
IndonesianTalk.com -The Bayan Price Mystery: When Markets Need Answers, Not Speculation. By Laksamana Sukardi There is a mystery in Indonesia’s capital market. PT Bayan Resources Tbk., one of Indonesia’s largest publicly listed companies by market capitalization, has a market value of roughly US$26 billion. Yet Bloomberg has reported that an entity controlled by Indonesian businessman Haji Isam is offering approximately US$3 billion for around 62 percent of Bayan Resources’ shares. The arithmetic is straightforward. If 62 percent of the company is valued at US$3 billion, the implied valuation for the entire company would be approximately US$4.8 billion. On the stock exchange: roughly US$26 billion. In the reported transaction: roughly US$4.8 billion. The difference is close to 80 percent. One company. Two dramatically different indications of value. Why? This is what I call the Bayan Price Mystery. This article does not seek to determine which valuation is correct. Nor do we know what…
Book Launch Spokesperson: A Political Communication Management Perspective in the Age of Disruption
IndonesianTalk.com — Spokespersons Take on More Strategic Role in Era of Disruption The rapid development of digital technology and changing patterns of public communication have made the role of government and institutional spokespersons increasingly strategic, speakers at a book launch in Jakarta said on Friday. Spokespersons are no longer expected merely to deliver statements on behalf of their leaders. They are increasingly required to manage strategic communication, build public trust and respond to rapidly evolving information dynamics. The issue was among the topics discussed during the launch and book discussion of Juru Bicara: Perspektif Manajemen Komunikasi Politik di Era Disrupsi (Spokespersons: A Perspective on Political Communication Management in the Era of Disruption), written by communication professor Marlinda Irwanti Poernomo and Benny Siga Butarbutar, M.Si. The event was held at Antara Heritage Center in Jakarta on Friday (Sept. 11). In his keynote speech, head of the Government Communications Agency (Badan Komunikasi Pemerintah/BKP)…
Hato Introduces Nuggets with 80% Real Chicken Breast to Over 5,000 Amartha Run 10K 2026 Runners
IndonesianTalk.com — Over 5,000 runners took part in the Amartha 10K Run at Gelora Bung Karno (GBK), but it was Hato that stole the spotlight at the finish line, (6/9/26). Rather than setting up a traditional water stand, the Yogyakarta-based chicken processing brand energized athletes with an exclusive Protein Recovery Station featuring Hato Fillet, a nugget product containing 80% real chicken breast meat. Rewriting the Rules on Nuggets Through this initiative, Hato is positioning itself to challenge the long-standing perception of nuggets as a low-nutrition snack aimed primarily at children. The brand argues that nuggets can instead serve as a serious, high-protein fuel source suited for active lifestyles. As Indonesia’s pioneer in nuggets containing over 70% meat content, Hato pairs its low-sodium formulation with what it describes as an industry-first ziplock packaging designed to preserve product hygiene during storage. Company’s Commitment to Quality Protein According to Qatrinada, Director of PT Sera…

Rp1.9 Trillion for Government Communications: Can BAKOM Turn Public Perception of Prabowo Around?
IndonesianTalk.com — Rp1.9 Trillion for Government Communications: Can BAKOM Turn Public Perception of Prabowo Around? The Government Communications Agency’s proposed budget is set to surge to Rp1.9 trillion in 2027. Lawmakers are demanding measurable results. But improving public approval of President Prabowo Subianto is not simply a matter of crafting better messages. The greater challenge is bridging the gap between economic statistics and people’s everyday experience. THE Rp1.9 trillion figure quickly drew attention in Senayan. During a working meeting between Commission XIII of the House of Representatives and the Ministry of State Secretariat on August 31, 2026, the proposed 2027 budget for the Government Communications Agency, or BAKOM, became one of the subjects of scrutiny. The reason was obvious: the proposed amount represents a dramatic increase. According to information cited in the House meeting, BAKOM’s budget in 2026 was around Rp22 billion. For 2027, the agency led by Muhammad Qodari is…
