So, let us embrace our differences and work hand in hand for a brighter tomorrow. Let the Sumpah Pemuda be our guide, reminding us that we are stronger together.
Thank you.
Assalamualaikum wr. Wb
First of all, Let us be grateful for the chance to be able to stand here in a healthy body and mind in this nice morning, all thanks to the Almighty Allah SWT. I also would like to thank my respectable teachers and my beloved friends here for taking their little time to sit here listening to my short speech.
Today we celebrate Youth Pledge day in which on this date, exactly ninety years ago, the Indonesian youth pledged and declared for one motherland, one nation and one language. With this declaration, there was also “Indonesia Raya” song, the Indonesian national anthem created by W.R. Soepratman, played for the first time. It is a very importance moment in Indonesia history.
If we look back to the hard time of the struggle in fighting for the independence of this country, Indonesian young men had so many enthusiasms to fight for Indonesian independence. They did not hesitant to do anything in their power for their country.
And we as their legacy, must continue their fight. Because the fight did not stop when the Independence was already in our hands. There are so many things to do for our country for it to grow and to be prosperous. So, what can we do?
