Saturday 25th January 2020 saw the Java St Andrew Society celebrate the 261st anniversary of the birth of Scotland’s most famous and popular bard, Robert Burns. Hosted at the Mandarin Oriental Jakarta, the Committee created a cosy, intimate but sophisticated evening where our guests could come and enjoy a wonderful evening of Burns’ works and a mix of traditional speeches and Scottish folk entertainment, all accompanied by a Scottish meal all washed down with Whisky. With only 50 seats available the event was a sell out and those who joined us had a wonderful evening. So much so that the pipes and songs were still going well into the early morning and long after we had closed the official part of the evening with a traditional rendition of Auld Lang Syne.!
