Today, November 1oth 2010. We are Indonesian people celebrating the National Heroic Day...
Remembering our late warrior fight for our freedom and dream to be an independent nation. Here, in Surabaya the first blood took place, November 10th 1945.
Bung Tomo, was the first leader that can inspire and encourage youth of Surabaya to fight against Nederlands troop that hiding behind the Ally. They do not show fear or discouragement against Dutch troops which their complete and modern armed forces at that time.
The youth and the patriot were just brought "bambu runcing" and only few Japanese loot weapons. And what do you thing could happen by then??
They burned the whole city of Surabaya into big battle field and won by big surprise to the Ally troops.
Proverb says, that even a small ant can drop giant elephant. Even though required thousands of ants but still they can beat a giant elephant that thousand times bigger then they were.
This kind of spirit that we should appreciate from our founding fathers. Unity, so we can do anything, even an impossible thing...
Happy Heroic Day.... to Bagus and Daniyal my loving boys...
