STATE ADDRESS OF THE PRESIDENT OF THE REPUBLIC OF INDONESIA 16 AUGUST 2000

PRESIDENT OF THE REPUBLIC OF INDONESIA

Honourable Speaker, Vice Speakers, and Members of the House of Representatives, Distinguished Guests, and My beloved fellow countrymen all over Indonesia,

Assalamu Alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh,

Praised to God, today, we are again welcoming the anniversary of the Republic of Indonesia's Independence Day, which we will commemorate tomorrow on 17th August 2000. The state convention that we have kept over the years in which the President delivers a state address before the Plenary Session of the House of Representatives is a commendable practice. Together We can use this opportunity to reflect on the journey as a nation. Tomorrow, our Independence Day will reach its fifty-fifth year. But the age of Indonesian nationalism is much older than this.

The Indonesian nationalism was born and went through a process of maturity in this archipelago long before the independence was proclaimed. Nationalism was born and since the rise of existential awareness of our predecessors to establish a political community which fundamentally resisted the presence of other nations which colonialized the land and the people of Indonesia. Such a process of profound (pemahaman) understanding was continually spreading and growing shaped our collective consciousness as a nation. This proves that our nationalism is not something naturally formed and born, but socially and intellectually developed by the society at a certain phase in history.

The founding fathers of this republic agreed to lay the foundations of the bonds of Indonesian nationalism on common destiny and goals. The similarity of fate has created a strong emotional and moral bond which we can call national fraternity. By holding the same goals, solidarity forms a strong base to reach improvement, building a country, forming a government, and enforcing the law and improving life in various fields.
