If you visit TMII (Taman Mini Indonesia Indah) in East Jakarta, Indonesia, you will see a billboard figuring Hanuman (Anoman), the most hero in the Ramayana epic. Look at the picture above! "Nitra" abbreviates "Anjani Putra", means "Son of Anjani". Hanuman has become the mascot of the famous place in Jakarta - the capital city of Indonesia - since 1991, which was the sixteenth anniversary of the place, inaugurated by the past Mrs. Tien Soeharto, the inspirer of TMII. Visiting TMII will give you a taste of the various ethnics and cultures of Indonesia at a glance. So, welcome to Indonesia!
