Japanese anime One Piece has become the source of a new symbol for resistance in Indonesia.

日本動漫《航海王》已成為印尼抵抗運動的新象徵。

The Jolly Roger flag showing a skull wearing a straw hat has started to pop up across the country as part of a social media trend.

作為社交媒體潮流的一部分，一個頭戴草帽的骷髏頭圖案的海賊旗開始在全國各地出現。

It comes as the country marks 80 years of independence this Sunday with the president urging people to raise the Indonesian flag.

本週日是印尼獨立 80 週年紀念日，總統呼籲人們升起印尼國旗。

Well, for more reporter Natasha Salem joins us in the studio.

記者 Natasha Salem 將在攝影棚為你帶來更多報導。

娜塔莎，告訴我們這是怎麼來的？

So the trend actually started on social media where people started posting images, videos or even changing their profile pictures into the Jolly Roger flag and to them this is actually a symbol of resistance.

這股潮流實際上是從社交媒體上開始的，人們開始發佈圖片、影片，甚至把自己的個人照片換成海賊旗，對他們來說，這實際上是抵抗的象徵。

This is their way of saying or expressing their disappointment towards the government because there's actually instances in the series itself where the main characters who are the pirates are faced with the authorities,

這也是他們表達對政府失望的方式，因為實際上，在《航海王》系列中，主角海盜們也會遇到政府部門，

and that they have to find a way to get around them to get their goals.

他們必須想辦法繞過政府部門，才能達到自己的目的。

So people see this symbol as a perfect logo as a perfect thing to represent their frustration towards government in Indonesia.

人們認為這個標誌是一個完美的標誌，可以代表他們對印尼政府的不滿。

What has the reaction from the government been?

So it's interesting to see the reaction from the government because they've also been divided on this case.

看看政府的反應很有意思，因為他們在這個案子上也有分歧。

Some government officials have said that this is an attempt to divide the nation and to break the unity of the nation but some hasn't really commented on this.

一些政府官員說，這是企圖分裂國家，破壞民族團結，但也有一些人沒有對此發表評論。

Even the Indonesian president Prabowo Subianto has said like according to his secretary he said that this is just an expression of creativity.

甚至印尼總統普拉伯沃·蘇比安托也說過，據他的祕書說，這只是一種創造力的表達。

So yeah, huge reaction but really divided.

是的，巨大的反響，但確實存在分歧。

And it isn't the first time that a piece of pop culture has been used as a symbol of resistance in Asia.

在亞洲，利用流行文化作為反抗的象徵並非首次。

Yeah, it's not the first time because in Thailand we've seen the Hunger Games franchise three-finger salute being used in protests to express people's frustrations towards the government.

是的，這已經不是第一次了，因為在泰國，我們已經看到《飢餓遊戲》系列中的三指禮被用於抗議活動，以表達人們對政府的不滿，

And also another thing is the Japanese cartoon Hamtaro, which was used as a [criticism] towards the corruption allegations in the country.

還有一個例子是日本卡通片《哈姆太郎》，它被用來批評該國的腐敗指控。

So yeah, it's not really the first time in Asia.

娜塔莎，很高興跟你聊聊。謝謝。
