Commemorating the Independence Day: carrying out the battles for the better future
Welcome back to another edition of Privy Presents, a newsletter specifically curated by Privy team to discuss digital identity and other closely related topics, delivered to you every Wednesday.?
Indonesian Independence Day is approaching. In the past, we celebrated the day to mark our liberation from colonial rule. Years later, into the 20th century, we have moved beyond the struggle against colonialism, but challenges persist in our pursuit of complete independence. So, how do we commemorate Independence Day in the present??
Reflecting on past struggles?
Commemorating Independence Day provides a moment to honor our national heroes. Through their unwavering commitment in battles, we got insights into their unyielding determination to secure freedom. However, obtaining freedom does not mean it's the end of the journey. Even after independence, there are still many challenges facing the nation, such as nurturing growth and fostering the nation’s prosperity. A multitude of responsibilities lie ahead, demanding our collective efforts to elevate our country to greater heights.?
The meaning of independence in the present?
Celebrating Independence Day is not only about reflecting on the past, but also an opportunity to think about the future and continue the battles of the national heroes. We can take valuable lessons from heroes who struggled to live a better life.??
Today, our enemies are not colonialists, but laziness, fear and pressure from ourselves and from other people. We can start trying to fight it by trying new things, overcoming fears, and making tough decisions. Start convincing ourselves that this step will bring goodness not only to ourselves, but also to others.?

Creating and trying out new innovations for the future?
Another challenge for the current generation to handle to continue the battle of the previous generation is to support technological developments in this digital era.??
Almost all human activities in the world, including Indonesia, occur online. Among the innovations that are now starting to be widely used for online transactions is digital identity. It allows everyone who is active in the digital space to be identified. Nonetheless, digital trust remains pivotal in Indonesia, eliminating the necessity for individuals to retain their identities through traditional printed documents.?
??
Digital identity is expected to be used in various transactions, such as purchasing goods online or opening a bank account. The application of digital identity is very important because in the future there is great hope that everyone who is active in the digital space can be identified.?
As we reach the end of this edition, we would like to remind you to always be mindful of your identity and personal information, especially when you’re active online.?
