Since I learned that NegaraKu is not original, I feel ashamed each time it is played.
The Indonesians have accused us of "Ciplaking" many of their stuff and our national anthem is living proof that we are indeed good at ciplaking, though I am not sure of the origins of Terang Bulan but it is still ciplaking nevertheless.
Why don't we create a new national anthem, something we can really call our own?
We must be strong to make a break after knowing that NegaraKu is not original.
Sir,

Anyway, thanks for posting the clip.
The original song is Mamula Moon.
