63 Years Later, a perspective of History


lahir seorang besar dan tenggelam beratus ribu
keduanya harus dicatat, keduanya dapat tempat
(Chairil Anwar - Catatan Tahun 1946)


From This Post, a year ago when I visited Rengasdengklok . I received comment from Mr. Wikana's grandson. stating that his grandfather is basically missing in 1966 after the political turmoil in 1965 (reader is to be advised to maintain critical and objective approach when read it).

As one of youth leader it is hard to find source of Wikana on the net; while wikana's name is mentioned in wikipedia, there is no description at all. Wikana only mentioned only as a cabinet minister without portfolio in Sjahrir Cabinet II and III, Amir Sjarifuddin I and II representing Indonesia Communist Party. After that period, nothing is mentioned about Wikana. It seemed that he only became footnote in history after early stage in Indonesia Proclamation.

apa yang ingin dicapai disini adalah semua harus dicatat dan dapat tempat ketika revolusi berlangsung tanpa melihat latar belakang politik seseorang
