Merdeka Awards 2024 is Back, Here is the Complete List of Award Recipients

Kapanlagi.com - Merdeka.com held the Merdeka Awards 2024 ceremony at the SCTV Tower Auditorium, 8th Floor, Asia Afrika Street, Central Jakarta on Thursday, September 19, 2024. This award ceremony can also be watched by the Indonesian public through streaming services on Vidio and the merdeka.com social media accounts on September 26, 2024.

The Merdeka Awards is an award event to give the highest appreciation to those who have contributed to the progress of the nation and humanity. This year, 2024, marks the fourth time for merdeka.com to hold this award event.

"As a well-respected check and balances institution, mainstream media should continue to exist because of its irreplaceable role by other mediums as the fourth pillar of democracy. This Republic will not exist in the future if the media is allowed to fall. Hopefully, the fundamental awareness that Merdeka.com is one of the mainstream media currently at a crossroads will ultimately lead to maximum public appreciation for similar award events initiated by intellectual figures of the editorial team," said the Editor-in-Chief of merdeka.com, Darojatun, in his speech.

The Merdeka Awards 2024 was attended by the Minister of Communication and Information Budi Arie Setiadi, Corporate Secretary of SCM Gilang Iskandar, KLY CEO Steve Christian, KLY Content Director Wenseslaus Manggut, and Director of Fertilizers and Pesticides at the Ministry of Agriculture Jekvy Hendra.
