Take a deep your breath now.
0:08
yes, we have enjoyed the air of
0:11
independence for so many years
0:14
in a country called Indonesia.
0:18
However, we rarely to know
0:20
long before independence , there was a mysterious person
0:24
Which initiated the idea of the Indonesian state
0:28
his name is rarely to be heard
0:30
but he is a revolutionary warrior who transcends the age.
0:33
He is the father of the Republic of Indonesia.
0:44
Little Tan Malaka liked adventure.
0:47
his hobby was swimming in the swift river
0:50
even that her mother twisted his navel hardly
0:54
But behind his mischief, he had brilliant school grades
0:58
until he was so amazed the teachers
1:01
and repeatedly amazed the villagers.
1:06
the poverty of his family made his intelligence
1:09
threatened to be in vain
1:12
then there was one miracle happened
1:14
Villagers worked together to pay for Tan Malaka
1:21
faraway land there ...
1:30
In the cold of Europe, Tan Malaka wrinkled
1:33
inside a narrow and dark room.
1:35
the only one light he got
1:38
from books containing the thoughts of European intellectuals.
1:43
His eyes opened to realize the reality
1:46
that many... injustices often occur in the world.
1:51
His mind then also drifted into colonial times
1:54
which was taking place in his country.
2:00
and words are the weapons.
2:02
he decided go home and brought all those lessons
2:06
for he prepared to use them as the material of battle
2:10
to defend a country that was suffering:
2:14
arrived in the homeland, Tan Malaka's political movement was
2:19
But haven't had much time to fight back,
2:22
he was chased all out by the government colonial
2:28
his life ran out on the run
2:31
This was where the worst life began.
2:34
He hid with 23 pseudonyms,
2:38
exploring eleven countries
2:41
mastering eight languages,
2:43
and worked until he become a typist just to survive.
2:50
precisely on the run,
2:52
the greatest work of thought he gave birth to.
2:55
A masterpiece book titled:
2:58
"Naar de Republiek Indonesia".
3:01
if previously Gajah Mada wanted
3:05
So, this book became his guide book.
3:09
this book read by other the fighters of revolution
3:12
became the gasoline that ignite the fire of struggle,
3:15
as if made the name of Tan Malaka be a legend.
3:19
What people rarely knew that there was a debate
3:22
in the seconds of Indonesia's independence
3:25
Tan Malaka's backbone was too hard to bend to anyone.
3:30
Including the Soekarno-Hatta's way
3:32
which opened for diplomacy with Japan
3:35
in an effort to set Indonesia free
3:38
Until the proclamation was read,
3:41
in Tan Malaka physically
3:42
had no chance to be involved in it
3:50
After the proclamation, his name became dimmer
3:53
under the shadow of 'Soekarno' and 'Hatta'.
3:57
In the midst of the hectic Indonesia-Dutch negotiations,
4:00
Tan Malaka still believed
4:02
fighting back is the best way to get rid of the invaders.
4:06
shortly after, he then met someone
4:10
young Sumatran small body man with the same stature as himself.
4:14
His name is Sutan Syahrir.
4:16
He left a message that gave rise
4:19
to a dilemma in his little heart
4:23
then began Sutan Syahrir's journey ,
4:26
To decide where he must side.
