The media company Vindes Corp began as a celebration of the 30-year friendship between its co-founders, Vincent Rompies and Desta, according to Kompas.com. The outlet reports that the venture's origin story is directly tied to that milestone anniversary between the two Indonesian entertainers.
Kompas.com's coverage details how the company grew from that personal foundation. The report does not specify a launch date or the exact nature of the initial celebration, but it frames the friendship anniversary as the starting point for what became Vindes Corp.
The news comes amid a significant change for the company. Multiple outlets, including CNN Indonesia and ANTARA News Bengkulu, report that Desta has officially announced his departure from Vindes Corp. CNN Indonesia published what it described as Desta's full statement regarding his exit, while ANTARA News Bengkulu confirmed that Vincent Rompies is prepared to continue with a new chapter for the business.
Other coverage reflects the emotional weight of the split. Mojok.co offered a personal reflection on losing two people it never actually met, while celebrity.okezone.com reported that Dicky Difie expressed sadness over Desta's decision to leave.
The departure marks a turning point for a company built on a decades-long partnership. With Desta out, the focus now shifts to how Vincent Rompies will steer Vindes Corp forward on his own, and whether the brand can maintain its identity without one half of its founding duo.
