Abstract
During Suharto’s New Order, television comedies were an outlet to escape from the intense securitisation, if not indeed militarisation, of society. The macho performances of men in military uniform, especially the army, parading with their rifles and artillery were a common feature on television. The prevalence of the military was also evident in weekly television musical performances such as Aneka Safari in which the venue more often than not was a military base. As if the location were not enough, it was common for the female hosts, obviously not military personnel, to don the military’s official green camouflaged uniform together with its green, black or red beret, depending on which military unit sponsored the weekly programme.
