Destruction of History and Claims of Dutch colony Indonesia 350 Years
For decades, all Indonesians in the school read the history books of the archipelago, which contains false data, western oriented and even many who are still relics of the colonist or from the point of view of the invaders.

Likewise, 'History of Indonesia', which does not provide complete and accurate information about events that occurred in Indonesia, after the Indonesian nation declared its independence on August 17, 1945.
But not only because of the wrong history writing, but the knowledge and understanding of history is also very minimal and wrong.
The Dutch colonized Indonesia 3.5 centuries. Japan colonized Indonesia 3.5 years. That is the opinion of almost all the people of Indonesia until now. In relation to the period of the Dutch colonialism of 3.5 centuries, it was never explained in detail, when Dutch colonialism began in Indonesia, and when finally.
Who argues that the Dutch colonized Indonesia for 350 years is not limited to ordinary people, even some (perhaps all) ministers and elite leaders of this country though still thinking like this, as spokeswoman of Defense Ryamizard Ryacudu said some time ago, and EMR Minister, Sudirman Said, when inaugurated the Bayu Power Plant (PLTB) in Bantul on May 4, 2015. Perhaps also all national leaders have an opinion.
It was Bonifacius Cornelis de Jonge, who became the 63rd Indo-Dutch Governor General, from 12 September 1931 to 16 September 1936, which in 1935 said:
"Als ik meet national praise, start ik altijd meet de zin: Wij Nederlanders zijn hier al 300 jaar geweest en us zullen nóg minstens 300 jaar blijven .we Daarna kunnen we praten." (When I talk to nationalists, I always start with the sentence: We Dutch have been here 300 years and we will stay at least 300 more years, then we can talk).
In the Netherlands known wise words, namely: "Hoogmoed komt voor de val" (Pride comes before the fall). The next Governor-General, 64th, JonkheerAlidius Warmoldus Lambertus Tjarda van Starkenborgh Stachouwer 1936 - 9.3.1942, was the last Dutch ruler in Dutch India. After the surrender of the Dutch government to Japan on March 9, 1942, he was initially taken to Taiwan, then detained at Camp in Hsien (now Liaoyuan) in Mancuria, until he was released on August 16, 1945, after the Japanese surrendered the allies.
It is not known for certain, when the phrase Bonifacius de Jonge began to be used by Indonesian leaders, as a slogan that supposedly evokes the emotions, anger, and spirit of the Indonesian people. It's also unknown, which starts with a 350-year mark. How is the calculation.
Until the early 20th century the Dutch had not fully mastered the whole of Southeast Asia / the archipelago. The Sultanate of Aceh only fell in 1904, the kingdom of Badung Bali ended with Puputan Badung in 1906, Batak Kingdom fell in 1907 with the death of Sisingamangaraja XII and the Kingdom of Klungkung in Bali ended with Puputan Klungkung in 1908
If this were true, the Dutch colonized Indonesia for 350 years, would not it be a shame that a country as small as the Netherlands could colonize a dozen times its country, with a population more than 15 times that of the Netherlands? This is often a mockery among the Indonesians themselves, who have no sense of nationalism, or perhaps even pro Dutch. Thus, the sentence backfires to Indonesia.
General Ryamizard Ryacudu when serving as Army Chief of Staff (KSAD), in his speech at Ambarawa Palagan Memorial commemorated as Journal of Kartika Army Day in December 2003, misinterpreted the incident. It is said that: "At that time, President Sukarno was captured, the government was paralyzed, and the Dutch with their military threatened to reclaim Indonesian rule, the TNI under the leadership of General Soedirman showed his heroism, with simple weapons, TNI with people winning the battle to maintain integrity nation and state. "
Note: President Soekarno was captured by the Dutch on 19 December 1948, when the Dutch launched their second military aggression while the Palagan Ambarawa incident took place in December 1945, and at that time was not TNI, but its name was the People's Security Army - TKR (later on 7 January 1946 renamed the People's Army of Indonesia and on 3 July 1947 became the Indonesian National Army - TNI, until now). What was opposed in December 1945 was the British army, not the Dutch army.
The most fatal example, because it contains so many mistakes - I think - is the history book Curriculum KARANGAN I Wayan Badrika 1994 (Second Edition): "National History of Indonesia and General" for Senior High School 2.
In addition to using terminology from the point of view of the invaders, such as British sailor "LOOK" Australia (page 22), looters, gold raiders and genuine slayers of Spain and Portugal are referred to as "NEW WORLD PEOPLE". The word "PENAKLUK" is a translation of the Spanish "Conquistador" (page 19). "DISCOVERY" The Teduh Sea, the Strait of Magellan and the Cape of Good Hope are "AWESOME WORK" (page 23).
While Silk Road (Silk Road) trade from East Asia to Egypt has been 5000 years old. In the Bamyn Valley in Afghanistan there are two of the largest Buddhist statues in the world, 1,500 years old. Prince Siddharta Gautama who came to be known as Buddha came from born in Lumbini, now including Nepal. Unfortunately, two Buddha statues of 2001 were destroyed by the Taliban.
There is no maritime trade route between China to Egypt, which must pass through the Malacca Strait. The spice traders had been trading all the way to Maluku, several hundred years before the arrival of Europeans. So WHAT'S INCREDIBLE OF THE PEOPLE WHO AFTER TWO YEARS COME?
Regarding the reason Prince Diponegroro rose up against the Dutch, wrote "SPECIAL CABS", ie "making his way through the ancestral cemetery of Prince Diponegoro in Tegal Rejo" (page 67). This phrase is still listed in I Wayan Badrika's book based on Standard Content 2006 (page 166).
The same "common" cause, "SPECIAL CAUSE The Diponegoro War occurred in 1825, when the Dutch were about to open a new road from Yogyakarta to Magelang via Tegal Rejo, where the ancestral tomb of Prince Diponegoro" is still used in Samsul Farid Buku Kurna, Curriculum 2013, History for SMA / MA Class XI, page 182.
