I’m proud of my own flag – I assume others are too.
I’ve added the Indonesian flag to my sidebar, as many Indonesian people visit my blog (almost 11000 views), and occasionally I get comments in Indonesian (Thanks Google translate).

So – Welcome and hello to all my Indonesian readers, best wishes to you all. Thankyou for reading and visiting my blog.

So welcome and hello to all my Filipino and Indian readers, best wishes to you all. Thankyou for reading and visiting my blog.
