Hey everyone :)
It's me Tasha! and back again to my blog, how are you today? i hope you still good and healthy.

In this blog, i'll share to you a biography from one of Indonesia's national heroes, especially in education in Indonesia. So here we goo!!

KI HAJAR DEWANTARA


Orientation
Ki Hajar Dewantara is a national education figure. He was born with the name Raden Mas Soewardi Soerjaningrat which we later know as Ki Hadjar Dewantara. He himself was born in the city of Yogyakarta, on May 2, 1889, his birthday is commemorated every year by the Indonesian people as National Education Day. He himself was born into a noble family, he is the son of GPH Soerjaningrat, who is the grandson of Pakualam III. Born as an aristocrat, he is entitled to receive education for the nobility.

Events
Ki Hajar Dewantara was an activist for the Indonesian independence movement, columnist, politician, and a pioneer of education for Indonesian natives from the Dutch colonial era. He is the founder of Perguruan Taman Siswa, an educational institution that provides opportunities for common natives to obtain educational rights just like priyayi and Dutch people.

His date of birth is now celebrated in Indonesia as National Education Day. Part of his motto, tut wuri handayani, has become the slogan of the Indonesian Ministry of National Education. His name is immortalized as one of the names of the Indonesian warship, KRI Ki Hajar Dewantara. His portrait was immortalized on the 1998 issue of 20,000 rupiah banknotes.

He was confirmed as the second national hero by the President of the Republic of Indonesia, Soekarno, on November 28, 1959.

Ki Hadjar Dewantara graduated from elementary school at ELS (Dutch Elementary School) and then continued his studies at STOVIA (Bumiputera Doctor School) but due to illness, he could not finish his school.

Ki Hadjar Dewantara then worked as a journalist for several newspapers including Sedyotomo, Midden Java, De Express, Oetoesan Hindia, Kaoem Moeda, Tjahaja Timoer and Poesara. In his time, Ki Hadjar Dewantara was known as a reliable writer. His writings are very communicative, sharp and patriotic so that they can evoke anti-colonial spirit for their readers.

Apart from working as a young journalist, Ki Hadjar Dewantara is also active in various social and political organizations. In 1908, Ki Hadjar Dewantara was active in the propaganda section of Boedi Oetomo to socialize and raise awareness of the Indonesian people at that time about the importance of unity and integrity in the nation and state. Then, together with Douwes Dekker (Dr. Danudirdja Setyabudhi) and dr. Cipto Mangoenkoesoemo, who would later be known as Tiga Serangkai, Ki Hadjar Dewantara founded the Indische Partij (the first political party with Indonesian nationalism) on 25 December 1912 with the aim of achieving an independent Indonesia.

They tried to register this organization to obtain legal entity status with the Dutch colonial government. But the Dutch colonial government through the Governor General Idenburg refused the registration on March 11, 1913 because this organization was considered to be able to arouse a sense of nationalism and people's unity to oppose the Dutch colonial government.

President Soekarno trusted Ki Hadjar Dewantara to become the first Minister of Education, Teaching and Culture. Through this position, Ki Hadjar Dewantara is increasingly free to improve the quality of education in Indonesia. In 1957, Ki Hadjar Dewantara received an Honori Klausa Doctorate from Gajah Mada University.

Re-orientation
Two years after receiving the title of Doctor Honoris Causa, on April 28, 1959, Ki Hadjar Dewantara died in Yogyakarta and was buried there. Now, the name Ki Hadjar Dewantara is not only immortalized as a figure and hero of education (the father of National Education) whose birth date is May 2 as National Education day, but is also designated as the Hero of the National Movement through a decree of the President of the Republic of Indonesia dated November 28, 1959.

That's a brief biographical description of Ki Hajar Dewantara, hopefully we can take moral values, especially in terms of education.

And the following below is my assignment:

1, Structure text from biograpy Cut Nyak Dien

 (ORIENTATION)
  Cut  Nyak  Dhien  was  a  leader  of  the  Acehnese  guerrilla  forces  during  the  Aceh  War.  She  was  born  in  Lampadang  in  1848.  Following  the  death  of  her  husband Teuku Umar, she led guerrilla actions against the Dutch for 25 years. She  was  awarded  the  title  of  Indonesian  National  Hero  on  2  May  1964  by  the  Indonesian government. 

  Cut Nyak Dhien was born into an Islamic aristocratic family in Aceh Besar. Her father, Teuku Nanta Setia, was a member of the ruling Ulèë Balang aristocratic class in VI mukim, and her mother was also  from  an  aristocratic  family.  She  was educated in religion and household matters.   She   was   renowned   for   her   beauty,  and  many  men  proposed  to  marry  her.  Finally,  she  married  Teuku  Cik  Ibrahim  Lamnga,  the  son  of  an  aristocratic    family,    when    she    was    twelve.

(EVENT)
   On   26   March   1873,   the   Dutch   declared  war  on  Aceh.  In  November  1873,    during     the     Second     Aceh     Expedition,   the   Dutch   successfully   captured  VI  mukim  in  1873,  followed  by the Sultan’s Palace in 1874. 
 
In 1875, Cut Nyak Dhien and her baby, along with other mothers, were evacuated to  a  safer  location  while  her  husband  Ibrahim  Lamnga  fought  to  reclaim  VI  mukim. Lamnga died in action on June 29, 1878. Hearing this, Cut Nyak Dhien was enraged and swore to destroy the Dutch.

Some time later, Teuku Umar proposed to marry her.  Learning  that Teuku Umar  would allow her to fight, she accepted his proposal. They were married in 1880. This greatly boosted the morale of Aceh armies in their fight against  Dutch. Teuku Umar and Cut Nyak Dhien had a daughter, Cut Gambang.

The war continued, and the Acehnese declared Holy War against the Dutch, and were engaged in guerrilla warfare. Undersupplied, Teuku Umar surrendered to the Dutch forces on September 30, 1893 along with 250 of his men. The Dutch army  welcomed  him  and  appointed  him  as  a  commander,  giving  him  the  title  of  Teuku  Umar  Johan  Pahlawan.  However,  Teuku  Umar  secretly  planned  to  betray  the  Dutch.  Two  years  later  Teuku  Umar  set  out  to  assault  Aceh,  but  he  instead    deserted  with  his  troops  taking  with  them  heavy  equipment,  weapons,  and ammunition, using these supplies to help the Acehnese. This is recorded in Dutch history as “Het verraad van Teukoe Oemar” (the treason of Teuku Umar).

The Dutch general Johannes Benedictus van Heutsz sent a spy to Aceh. Teuku Umar  was  killed  during  a  battle  when  the  Dutch  launched  a  surprise  attack  on  him  in  Meulaboh.  When  Cut  Gambang  cried  over  his  death,  Cut  Nyak  Dhien  slapped her and then she hugged her and said: “As Acehnese women, we may not shed tears for those who have been martyred.

”After her husband died, Cut Nyak Dhien continued to resist the Dutch with her small army until its destruction in 1901, as the Dutch adapted their tactics to the situation in Aceh. Furthermore, Cut Nyak Dhien suffered from nearsightedness and arthritis as she got older. The number of her troops was also decreasing and they suffered from lack of supplies.

Re-orientation
One of her troops, Pang Laot, told the Dutch the location of her headquarters in  Beutong  Le  Sageu.  The  Dutch  attacked,  catching  Dhien  and  her  troops  by  surprise.  Despite  desperately  fighting  back,  Dhien  was  captured.  Her  daughter,  Cut Gambang, escaped and continued the resistance. Dhien was brought to Banda Aceh  and  her  myopia  and  arthritis  slowly  healed,  but  in  the  end  she  was  exiled  to  Sumedang,  West  Java  because  the  Dutch  were  afraid  she  would  mobilize  the  resistance of Aceh people. She died on 6 November 1908.
