Front

The Gelora Bung Karno Stadium (formerly Senayan Main Stadium) in Jakarta, Indonesia's largest multi-purpose stadium built in 1962 for the fourth Asian Games. Named after Sukarno, Indonesia's first president, the stadium is a symbol of Indonesian national pride and serves as the primary venue for major sporting and cultural events. The note features geometric architectural lines emphasizing the modernist design of the stadium's distinctive facade and roof structure.

Back

Traditional Dayak longhouse from East Kalimantan (Indonesian Borneo), representing the indigenous architecture of the Dayak peoples. These communal longhouses (rumah panjang) are elevated wooden structures that can house multiple families and serve as the center of Dayak community life. The depiction includes surrounding tropical vegetation and the characteristic steep-pitched roof typical of traditional Kalimantan architecture, symbolizing Indonesia's cultural diversity and respect for indigenous heritage.

History

Part of the 1992 series of Indonesian rupiah banknotes issued by Bank Indonesia, which featured national landmarks and cultural heritage sites. This 100 rupiah note was part of a comprehensive redesign that emphasized Indonesia's architectural heritage and cultural diversity. The note remained in circulation until it was gradually withdrawn in the 2000s as inflation diminished its purchasing power, and was officially demonetized in 2008. The series represented Indonesia's post-Suharto transition period and nation-building efforts through cultural representation.
