Indonesian National Revolution - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Indonesian National Revolution or Indonesian War of Independence is the name of the four-year conflict between Indonesia and the Netherlands leading to Indonesia achieving its independence in 1949. When a member of the NICA raised a Dutch flag on a hotel in the country's second-largest city, Surabaya, there was an emotional outburst by the Indonesian nationalists who overran the Japanese proxies guarding the hotel and tore the blue stripe off the flag, forming the red-and-white Indonesian flag. Indonesians commemorate as the anniversary of the August 17, 1945 day of Sukarno's proclamation as their official independence day holiday. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Indonesian_National_Revolution   (945 words)

Indonesia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Most Indonesians speak a local language (bahasa daerah) as their first tongue, but the official national language, Indonesian (locally called Bahasa Indonesia or simply Bahasa, meaning language) is almost universally taught in schools and is spoken by nearly every Indonesian. However, Suharto enriched himself and his family through widespread corruption and he was forced to step down amid massive popular demonstrations and a faltering economy by the Indonesian Revolution of 1998. The country borders Malaysia on the island of Borneo (Indonesian: Kalimantan), Papua New Guinea on the island of New Guinea and East Timor on the island of Timor. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Indonesia   (1903 words)

Dutch East Indies - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Dutch government retained control of the remaining parts -- except for the period of Japanese occupation from 1942-1945 during World War II-- until they accepted the independence of Indonesia in 1949 following the Indonesian National Revolution. The Indonesian government under Sukarno eventually took control of western New Guinea by force, and military skirmishes took place between 1961 to 1962, including a brief naval engagement in 1962. The Dutch were able to first regain control of Jakarta, forcing the removal of the Indonesian capital to Yogyakarta. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Netherlands_East_Indies   (825 words)

Indonesian Chinese Indonesian Chinese people are diverse in their origins, timing and circumstances of immigration to Indonesia, and level of ties to China. Chinese Indonesians whose ancestors immigrated in the first and second waves, and have thus become creolised or hua-na (in Hokkien) by marriage and assimilation, are called Peranakan Chinese. The Indonesian Chinese are ethnically Chinese people living in Indonesia, as a result of hundreds of years of overseas Chinese migration. www.kiwipedia.com /en/chinese-indonesian.html   (307 words)

Sal Santen-ON THE PROBLEMS OF THE COLONIAL REVOLUTION Thanks to the aid of the PKI leadership, the Indonesian Djuanda government succeeded in "restoring order." Having obtained this unexpected success, the Indonesian national bourgeoisie is doing everything to concentrate state power in its hands, at the cost of the revolutionary masses. If the Indonesian Communist rank and file is inspired by the Chinese revolution, and this cannot be doubted, the PKI leadership is completely faithful to the Soviet bureaucracy. The submission of the Indonesian mass movement to the interests of the national bourgeoisie could not be posed in a clearer way. www.marxists.org /history/etol/writers/santen/works/colonial.htm   (1531 words)

Colonialism and Nationalism in Southeast Asia Nationalism in Southeast Asia developed from three sources: 1, indigenous religions; 2, western education; and 3, contact with social radicals such as socialists and communists. In 1949, after four years of fighting, the Indonesians gained their independence with the assistance of the United Nations which served as a mediator between the Indonesians and the Dutch. It was destroyed by the Indonesian army in 1965. www.seasite.niu.edu /crossroads/wilson/colonialism.htm   (2381 words)

Indonesia : the Asian revolution has begun But the national revolution in present-day conditions can only succeed as an anti-capitalist revolution in which the peasantry and the rest of the exploited people unite under the leadership of the working class. The Indonesian CP (the PRD) is attracting the most revolutionary and courageous elements among the workers and youth. The second condition for revolution is that the petty bourgeoisie, the middle layers of society, should be wavering between the status quo and revolution. www.newyouth.com /archives/asia/indonesia/the_asian_revolution.asp?format=print   (11293 words)

Indonesia Foreign Policy under Suharto - Flags, Maps, Economy, Geography, Climate, Natural Resources, Current Issues, International Agreements, Population, Social Statistics, Political System A good discussion of the National Revolution period is found in Audrey R. Kahin's Regional Dynamics of the Indonesian Revolution: Unity from Diversity and Reid's Indonesian National Revolution, 1945-50. Indonesian policy makers questioned the high percentage of Japanese aid funds in the form of loans rather than grants and the heavy burden of repaying yen-denominated loans in the wake of the appreciation of the Japanese currency in 1985. Policy makers believed that since the country had largely achieved national unity and was making ample progress in economic development, it could afford to devote more of its attention to important regional issues. workmall.com /wfb2001/indonesia/indonesia_history_foreign_policy_under_suharto.html   (996 words)

AllRefer.com - Indonesia - The Growth Of National Consciousness Indonesian Information Resource National consciousness was not homogeneous but reflected the diversity of Indonesian society. Indonesian nationalism reflected trends in other parts of Asia and Europe. National consciousness emerged gradually in the archipelago during the first decades of the twentieth century, developed rapidly during the contentious 1930s, and flourished, both ideologically and institutionally, during the tumultuous Japanese occupation in the early 1940s, which shattered Dutch colonial authority. reference.allrefer.com /country-guide-study/indonesia/indonesia25.html   (351 words)

The Jakarta Post - The Journal of Indonesia Today Not surprisingly, Indonesian literature, which had hitherto been a product of the national revolution and its battles, also withered. They and their works played essential roles in keeping the energy and creativity of the Indonesian national revolution alive during the Soeharto's regime. If the process of the national revolution is to re-start then literature's engagement with society has to be restarted also. www.thejakartapost.com /yesterdaydetail.asp?fileid=20020831.E04   (1066 words)

Articles - Suharto After the Indonesian Declaration of Independence by Sukarno in 1945 Suharto& troops fought against Dutch and Western attempts to re-establish colonial rule during the Indonesian National Revolution.

math lessons - Police action The term is frequently used in reference to certain 20th-century historical events: the military actions of the Netherland, Britain, and other allies during the Indonesian National Revolution (1945-1949), as well as the Malayan Emergency (1948-1960). A police action in military/security studies and international relations, is a military action undertaken without a formal declaration of war, often localized in scope. Since the Second World War, numerous police actions have taken place under the auspices of the major-power nations; indeed, a declared war is an increasing rarity. www.mathdaily.com /lessons/Police_action   (166 words)

THE MANAGEMENT OF SOCIAL TRANSFORMATION * Adviser Indonesian National Development Planning Agency DR. SOE.DJATMOKO DR. SOE.DJATMOKO This called for deliberate efforts to transform the colonial enclave economy into a national growth economy, as well as for an emphasis on regional development, and the growth of a multi-ethnic entrepreneurial middle class. A direct attack on poverty, therefore, calls for institutional reform at the national level and for macro-economic policies that are supportive of it. There is probably no area in the development field which has changed so profoundly and rapidly in the last ten years, in its conception, its substance, its scope, and in the skills and methodologies which it has to offer, as the area of management and public administration. mgv.mim.edu.my /MMR/8004/800403.Htm   (3612 words)
