The Role of Aceh In Indonesian Independence

in #political7 years ago

Unbeknownst to many Indonesians, Aceh in the past continues to contribute enormously. What they do really matters to the nation. Without Aceh Indonesia may still be drowned in its downturn. We must not forget the history and should not be arrogant by not acknowledging the role of the brother of another country that is very real. So what are the great things that the people of Aceh have done to do this country?

First, Aceh became an Indonesian donor in the struggle. Perhaps not many know when the Dutch and Japanese colonize Indonesia, Aceh is always in a state of independence. The people of Aceh fought so hard that the occupation did not reach their ground. Therefore Acehnese prospered economically because they were not entangled in the colonial system. Actually the people of Aceh can choose not to care, but born from the Indonesian part of Aceh people feel have moral obligation to help the compatriots. Finally, the grants from Acehnese funds were donated to Indonesia. This assistance is also used for the operations of the Indonesian government, one of them to finance H. Agus Salim in order to follow the Asian Conference in New Delhi. Without this assistance the struggle of Indonesia to get the independence system more difficult.

Secondly, the Acehnese People's Joint Venture then buy Indonesia plane.

In theory, Indonesia is rich but in the struggle to manage natural resources almost become impossible. In addition to constrained capital, tools etc. dab other focus when it is struggling. Then where Indonesia seek instant and direct assistance other than Aceh. Aceh seems to be a permanent donor to Indonesia when this nation needs their help ready. In fact, the majority of donations given by Aceh to Indonesia come from people's venture. Like when Indonesia needs the plane of the people of Aceh to collect their gold and bring a plane to give to this nation. There are two aircraft that successfully purchased from the Joint Venture, one of which is a seulawah aircraft. This aircraft is very vital to Indonesia's struggle.

Third, Aceh donates ships.

Alutsista Indonesia in the struggle is very sad. Let alone the production, the ancestors just picked and bought. Although buying is not an easy choice considering Indonesia's economy is not good. Aceh again provided assistance to Indonesia, this time in the form of a marine vessel with a code of 58 LB PPB. This ship is very big influence for the nation. The ship was driven by a young admiral named John Lie. In his hand this ship is useful a lot especially its role in distributing weapons. If Aceh were stingy then this ship would never exist. So the struggle of Indonesia many times difficult.

Fourth, the important role of Radio Rimba Raya.

In the struggle of the media to spread the spirit of the struggle is very limited though through the writings because the distribution must be supervised by the invaders and even a lot of twisted writing. Radio one of the tools of people used to share news of struggle. Yet not many radio stands and do the precious broadcasts. Only a few including one of them is Radio Rimba Raya in Central Aceh. The role of this radio is absolutely vital. The broadcasters always do not stop giving important information about the struggle of the nation. For example by asserting that Indonesia stands even though the Dutch radio is not bored to remind the world if they will abolish Indonesia.

Fifth, donate gold as the power of the nation.

Located in the capital city with a great building Monas is a representation of the nation's struggle. Coupled with the gold weighing 38 kg at the top of the monument that increasingly makes this nation puff out the chest as a sovereign state that can not be contested. This gold was donated by an Acehnese named Teuku Markam. This man contributed 28 kg of 38 kg of gold at the end of the monument. If converted into current money with the price of gold per gram say 500 thousand. So Teuku Markam issued about 14 trillion. Unfortunately, the Teuku Markam service is rarely remembered today.

No wonder if Aceh is called special area because what the people do is very big role for the existence of Indonesia. If the Acehnese do not care about Indonesia, this country may experience a more serious struggle.
