Audio contains fairly clear ID for economic news RRI, patriotic song "Bagimu Negeri," followed by local ID.
RRI Ternate did not broadcast at all this year during Ramadan as they normally have done in past years.
Reminder - Next month (August) we can expect patriotic song "Bagimu Negeri," that is now played at the end of the 1200. Jakarta news, to be replaced by patriotic song "Dirgahayu Indonesiaku," starting Aug . This is due to the fact that Indonesian Independence Day is August 17, so they
play "Dirgahayu Indonesiaku" all month long.
