The angklung music performance at the Bandung Ngarulung Angklung event centered at the Balai Kota Bandung really amazed the audience. The children played their angklung very enthusiastically because they had prepared for practice long before the event. The presence of several invited guests and community leaders made us even more excited, especially when the audience liked the music and danced along... Thank you for the Bandung Ngarulung Angklung event, we can meet again on another occasion. |

ISDI (Ikatan Sindroma Down Indonesia or Indonesian Down syndrome Society) was formally established on 21 st April 1999. A non-profit support group of parents, medical professions, special-needs experts, teachers, and all of those who have deep concern.
We, as parents are very concerned of the future of children with Down syndrome in Indonesia especially when little is done to support them by the government or other non-profit organizations.
We so look forward towards a better future by sharing our experiences and supporting each other in our monthly gatherings. This way we gain knowledge and our children benefit from our experiences.
