Metro TV is an Indonesian 24-hour news channel launched in 2000, and like every Indonesian broadcaster it runs brief sponsor bumpers before and after programs, where an announcer states the program is 'didukung oleh' — supported by — the named sponsor. This particular clip captures that announcer moment, a piece of audio so familiar to Indonesian TV viewers that it became a meme on its own. Creators now drop it to give anything, from a snack to a silly idea, the full prestige of a televised sponsorship announcement.
About this sound
The Metro TV announcer saying 'didukung oleh' (supported by) from a sponsor bumper. An Indonesian TV meme creators use to mock-announce sponsors in videos.
A deep-voiced male announcer delivers the classic Indonesian sponsor-bumper line 'Didukung oleh...' with a dramatic pause, as if a grand reveal is about to follow. The voice is polished and theatrical, the kind heard between segments of Metro TV news programs when the channel acknowledges who paid for the broadcast. Heard on its own, it turns any mundane object into a mock-sponsored event, which is exactly why Indonesian creators lift it into comedy edits, parody advertisements and skit introductions alike.
