Indonesian ‘Propaganda’ T-Shirts Selling For a Cause
Colorful stickers in the shapes of diamonds and squares are glued to the front door of a small shop in Kemang, South Jakarta.
One of them reads, “The Only Indonesia I Love” and another is a version of the heart symbol T-shirt, with a garuda, the national symbol of the country, in place of the heart.
On the glass wall, wave-shaped stickers in red and white form the shape of a flag, adding brightness to the shop’s appearance.
The location of the small store is marked by two trees and a power pole on the street, each tied with a red and white checkered cloth. The interior is light, with white walls and a red ceiling.
A mannequin, dressed in a bright yellow T-shirt and carrying a canvas bag, stands by the door. The shirt reads, “Brave girls go to Indonesia.”
“This is not a distro [distribution store, a popular reference by youngsters to small, independent boutiques], this is a propaganda shop,” said Toni Kusumo, the owner of Provotoko.
Provo is short for provocation, referring to an action to stimulate pride, and toko is the Bahasa Indonesian word for shop.
Provotoko is a part of Indonesia Bertindak (Indonesia in Action), a campaign initiated by Toni’s older brother, Iwan Esjepe, and his wife Indah to motivate Indonesians into being nationalistic. The campaign started four years ago, triggered by a 6.3-magnitude quake in Yogyakarta in 2006, which destroyed about 354,000 houses.
At the time, Iwan and Indah, who both work for advertising agencies, designed and produced T-shirts to help raise money for the quake survivors.
The couple bought a T-shirt printing machine and Toni, Iwan and Indah printed the shirts themselves.
“We are basically a home-based industry. We are not an organization,” said Toni, who also runs a home-based business in Bogor.
“Our job is to spread this virus [to love Indonesia]. We have no one director [who heads the organization] or anything.”
The money to start up the Bertindak campaign came from Iwan and Indah’s own savings. They saved money by scrimping on their household budget.
After the first batch of shirts for the earthquake survivors was sold out, many of the couple’s friends were still inquiring if they still accepted donations.
More T-shirts were produced, one of the most popular was a design that included a map of Indonesia and the message, “Travel Warning: Indonesia, Dangerously Beautiful.”
Indonesia in Action has sold T-shirts and other items on the Internet for the past four years. The money they earn is distributed to survivors of disasters, such as those who have experienced earthquakes or floods. They also use earnings to produce stickers and posters.
The shop, however, was opened only four months ago. “A lot of people told us they would like to see the products first before buying them, maybe to check the materials,” Toni said, when asked why they decided to open a store.
Provotko is situated in the same building as the advertising agency Iwan works for. It quickly became a place where other groups could also sell their merchandise. T-shirts of all sizes hang neatly from the walls, along with some books, mugs and brochures.
The books are essays and poems by Sapardi Djoko Darmono, a famous Indonesian poet, who is related to the brothers. One of more unique items for sale is bottled mud, taken from the Sidoarjo, East Java, site, where a volcanic eruption happened the same year as the Yogyakarta quake.
With T-shirts costing between Rp 60,000 to Rp 90,000 ($6 to $9),Toni said that they might not collect a big enough amount to donate.
He would not disclose how much the campaign has donated in total, but said that for him and his colleagues, the most important thing is to encourage people to love their homeland.
Occasionally, the three of them coordinate camping trips with customers, which they say give them a chance to discuss their ideas for further developing the campaign to spread a real sense of patriotism through the country.

T-Shirt (song)
"T-Shirt" is the first solo single released by Barbadian singer Shontelle from her album Shontelligence. It is her second official single following the release of 2007's "Roll It" which was released only in select European countries. A remix, featuring The-Dream, is included on her second album No Gravity.
Speaking in February 2009 to noted UK R&B writer Pete Lewis of Blues & Soul, Shontelle explained the significance to her of the song: "I really like 'T-Shirt' a lot because, when you listen to the song, there's a lot of elements in there that will definitely appeal to girls. Like even the strongest women at some point can have that guy in their life who, if for some reason you can't be with him, is gonna have that effect on you where you're not gonna feel like going out, hanging out with your girlfriends, partying, or doing ANYTHING. And, if you do miss that person, the best thing to have of theirs is a T-shirt! Because it usually smells like them and you can put it on, curl up with it - and kinda pretend the person is THERE!
There's something rather sweet and gentle about the track - Shontelle's vocals are soft and plaintive, which suit the mood of the song perfectly, and while the lyrics are a bit hackneyed, with the references to Jimmy Choos and the brand name product placement of a t-shirt brand which, quite unlike the t-shirt in the song, is ill-fitting and uncomfortable, there's something incredibly likeable about the whole thing. There's a universality to it, too - I think most of us have been in a situation like the one in the song where thoughts of a lover who's gone get in the way of your attempts to get on with your life.
The official music video for "T-Shirt" was directed by Mike Ruiz.
It features Shontelle in various scenes around her home mainly lying on a sofa in a T-shirt belonging to her partner who is away a lot. She wears it as a symbol of her missing him and chooses to stay at home painting, wearing his T-shirt rather than going for a night out with her friends. It shows her and her friends texting each other and her friends getting annoyed she is not going with them. The video ends with her boyfriend returning from his trip and Shontelle smiling.
An official remix video was made for the Bimbo Jones version.

Release & Promotion
T-Shirt was sent to Mainstream Top 40 radio stations on July 15, 2008. Shontelle and her label gave artists a chance to release their own remixed version of the song, which was to be serviced to DJs with the winner promoted as a featured artist.Speaking in February 2009 to noted UK R&B writer Pete Lewis of Blues & Soul, Shontelle explained the significance to her of the song: "I really like 'T-Shirt' a lot because, when you listen to the song, there's a lot of elements in there that will definitely appeal to girls.

Critical reception
Nick Levine of Digital Spy gave the song 3/5 stars and said:- 'T-Shirt', her debut single, is a cute midtempo R&B tune with lyrics about popping on your boyfriend's top when you're missing him. It sounds like it was produced by Stargate, the Norwegian hitmakers behind Rihanna's 'Take A Bow' and Chris Brown's 'With You', even though it actually wasn't. Original? Nah, not in the slightest. Likable? Absolutely - though Shontelle's vocals lack the distinctive bit of rough that helps her countrywoman to stand out from the crowd.
There's something rather sweet and gentle about the track - Shontelle's vocals are soft and plaintive, which suit the mood of the song perfectly, and while the lyrics are a bit hackneyed, with the references to Jimmy Choos and the brand name product placement of a t-shirt brand which, quite unlike the t-shirt in the song, is ill-fitting and uncomfortable, there's something incredibly likeable about the whole thing.

The T-shirt: a collection of designs
Perhaps the ultimate icon of this generation, the T-shirt originated from tea and shirts. The history claims that seventeenth-century workers downloading tea boxes from boats in the harbor of Annapolis in the US wore a kind of short sleeve shirt that was eventually named the T-shirt in reference to the tea as well as form of the shirt, which resembled the letter "T:. By the 1920s, the word T-shirt appeared in official U.S. dictionaries. Over time, what was originally just a form of warm-weather work clothing has evolved and developed a life of its own. The T-shirt, in its simplist form, makes a statement about the wearer. Whether political, artistic, or humorous, a T-shirt displays a message that reflects the ideals of the wearer. T-shirts are one of the world?s most prolific forms of graphic message and personal statement, both commercial and personal. This collection looks at the T-shirt and its many forms. The chapters include The Legend of the T-shirt, Power of an Idol, Duplication of Art, Declaration, Mobile Posters, Simple and Fashionable, Design Element, and Technique. Altogether, this volume provides an immense catalog of 500 designs for inspiration and enjoyment for designers, crafters, and T-shirt enthusiasts.
