The Meaning of Independence

On 17th August, all Indonesian people celebrated the Independence day. It has been 63 years ago when Soekarno Hatta announced the country independence on 17th August 1945.

The time flows and decreases the real intention of the independence. Some indonesian people now do not understand the meaning of the independence because they are still suffering of the national crises in economy, energy and morality.

Nowadays, Indonesia is still dependent on other countries in economy, Indonesia still lack of energy and other foreign cultures have been starting to eliminate the Indonesian culture. Indonesian young people now are proud to act with foreign lifestyle.

When will we have the real independence?
