A fashion t-shirt with an 'Aceh Hardwar' logo for sale in Indonesia

While walking through a shopping mall in Indonesia my gaze was attracted to this T-shirt. (Sorry for the photo quality I was using my iPhone in one hand while holding the grocery shopping in the other hand.) At first I did not take it in, just looking without reading, wandering past all the different shops. It took me a few seconds before it registered what the t-shirt had written on it; Aceh Hardwar. It was a play on the Ace Hardware logo (here is the Indonesian site with the logo visible). The shop was not big and I do not think it was a franchise, just a small shop. I was not certain if the t-shirt was a political statement about the long running conflict in Aceh or possibly about how it was fought. Maybe it was just a joke for locals to enjoy. Possibly it was only a fashion design to project an air of political awareness. There was a remote possibility it was demonstrating solidarity to resurrect an old video game. I just thought that the t-shirt was worth a post. For more information on the conflict in Aceh that concluded in 2005, please check out the International Crisis Group website, specifically this August 2005 report and this December 2005 report.
