Destruction of History and Claims of Dutch Jajah Indonesia 350 Years
For decades, the whole Indonesian people at school read the history books of the archipelago, which contains false data, oriented to the west 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 the events that occurred in Indonesia, after the Indonesian nation declared its independence on August 17, 1945.
But not only because the writing of history is wrong, but knowledge and understanding of history is also very minimal and wrong.
The Dutch colonized Indonesia 3.5 centuries. Japan colonized Indonesia 3.5 years. Thus the opinion of almost all the people of Indonesia until now. In relation to the period of Dutch colonialism 3.5 centuries, never explained in detail, when the Dutch colonial beginnings in Indonesia, and when the end.
Who argued that the Dutch colonized Indonesia for 350 years is not limited to ordinary people, even some (maybe all) ministers and the elite leaders of this country even though it still thinks this way, as spoken by the Minister of Defense Ryamizard Ryacudu some time ago, and the Minister ESDM, Sudirman Said, when inaugurated the Bayu Power Plant (PLTB) in Bantul on May 4, 2015. It is also possible that all national leaders are of the opinion.
It was Bonifacius Cornelis de Jonge, who became the 63rd Indo-Dutch Governor-General, from 12 September1931 to 16 September1936, which in 1935 said:
"Als ik met nationalisten praat, begin ik altijd met de zin: Wij Nederlanders zijn hier al 300 jaar geweest en we zullen nóg minstens 300 jaar blijven. Daarna kunnen we praten. "(When I speak with nationalists, I always start with the phrase: We Dutch have been here 300 years and we will even stay for 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 originally taken to Taiwan, then detained at Kamp in Hsien (now Liaoyuan) in Mancuria, until he was released on August 16, 1945, after the Japanese surrendered to 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 is said to evoke the emotions, anger and spirit of the people of Indonesia. It is also unknown, who started with the 350-year mark. How is the calculation.
Until the early 20th century the Dutch had not fully controlled the whole of Southeast Asia / the archipelago. The Sultanate of Aceh only fell in 1904, the Badung kingdom of 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 it not be so shameful 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 Dutch? This is often a mockery among the Indonesians themselves, who have no sense of nationalism, or perhaps even pro Dutch. Thus, the sentence becomes a Boomerang for Indonesia.
General Ryamizard Ryacudu when serving as Army Chief of Staff (KSAD), in his speech at the Ambarawa Palagan Memorial commemorated as the Jurnal Kartika Day of the Army in December 2003, miscasting the incident. It is said a.l., that: "At that time, President Soekar
