Actually, we’re memorizing the Indonesian Revival Day every May 20. Be cause, there is the very important moment in May 20, 1908 when doctor Wahidin Sudirohusodo declare the revival Indonesian people with the education building.

And now, after 100 years pass away, what going on with the Indonesian revival day?

We have nothing to make the people proud as the Indonesian. We just have the sad notice and the stupid record decision. And the end, we are feel that our nationalism is lost right now. Also the multi dimension crisis. But, the serious once is the nationalism crisis.

In the meeting with Akbar, Chief of Batam Parliaments Suryo Respationo said, to day when the people of Batam living in the dark, because we have no gas enough to drive the electricity engine. Our government decides to sell the gas to Singapore. And the pipe of gas is cross away our home, Batam. This is the irony. Singapore dance on our sad stories.

The other crisis is the economic crisis. After 100 years, the poor people population more growing up every year. And the job opportunity is very difficult to find, event by the fresh graduate of the university. Here is the fact to day.

And, this week, the Indonesia people problem so heavy. After the President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono increasing the oil prices about 28%. The President announce the new oil price only 2 days after the big inauguration of the 100 years Indonesian Revival Day in Gelora Bung Karno Stadium at Jakarta. So, do you can to feel what the Indonesian people think with their 1st century revival on the other side they living on the multi dimensions crisis. But, the President optimist, “Indonesia Can !”. (!)
