"Di Timur Matahari" The Sun is east or: East of the sun, I don't know whic translation is the most correct. Indonesia in common view is situated in the extreme east.
In some Indonesian Atlasses the archipelago is situated in a more central position on the map.
On the other hand: the sun rises in the east like a symbul of hope and victory.
