The official national motto of Indonesia : Bhinneka Tunggal Ika is also printed on the shirt. 'Bhinneka Tunggal Ika' is Old Javanese and is often loosely translated as 'Unity in Diversity' but literally it means '(Although) in pieces, yet One'.
It is stated in the national symbol, Garuda Pancasila (as written on the scroll gripped by Garuda's leg)
This is a quotation from an Old Javanese poem kakawin Sutasoma, written by Mpu Tantular during the reign of the Majapahit empire sometime in the 14th century. Kakawin or Kawya, are epic poems written in Indian metres.
This poem is notable as it promotes tolerance between Hindus (Shivaites) and Buddhists.
The green and white away kit, is symbolizing the holy spirit.
