WORDS OF REMARKS INDONESIA THE UNTOLD STORIES The Ministry of Communication and Information Technology is proud to present this publication to the public containing various treasure the country has that perhaps many of us know little about. That is why we title this publication as Indonesia; The Untold Stories. Over many years of development and in pursuit of our own identity, we have come to realize that many information, history, geography, anthropology, culture, national treasure and many more nation’s belongings we learnt from the west. In fact, our existence as a nation which dated back to thousands of years ago had very little place in the world history. Only after foreign settlement in Indonesia, we then began our nation and all its vast diversity being told to the public. Naturally we have been grateful to all those explorer, historians, and many more foreign discoverers who have been passionate enough to write about our country. Nevertheless, to further give us a sense of unity or our own identity, the Ministry aims at publishing this book to seek wisdom from our own identity. It is with this purpose we hope to accomplish a clear path towards our destiny and help develope a direction for the future path towards prosperity. We hope this publication will bring about pride and joy to everyone who simply never ceases to be amazed about this country, what it stands for and what make it so special to all of us. Enjoy reading and God Bless Indonesia. FREDDY H. TULUNG DIRECTOR GENERAL OF INFORMATION AND PUBLIC COMMUNICATION INDONESIATHEUNTOLDSTORIES i
FOREWORD Geography is destiny. This book called INDONESIA THE UNTOLD STORIES is the premiere series of publication about the country’s best kept secrets information that astonishes not just every Indonesian, but the world alike. This coffee table style and format is designed to ease and entertain readers with picturesque and easy to digest content of all ages and walks of life. Indonesia which spans over 5,000 kilometers from east to west or equivalent range of Vladivostok to Sweden is a country of endless wonders and diversity waiting to be discovered. Out of 17,500 islands less than 6% even have names. No wonder if Indonesia is called with many precious phrases; from the jewels of equator, the amazon of the sea, the most diverse rainforest, and most of all the custodian of coral reef triangle. Our oceans contribute over 30% of air all creatures breathe in this planet. With so much to write about this country, we are confident that we will follow production of the next series and will welcome contributions, critics or even some photographic materials to enrich our library. We wish to acknowledge a special friend from Good News From Indonesia movement who relentlessly strive to spread the good news about this country. Please also join us in wishing all of Indonesian the very best and may this book brings the best of us; today, tomorrow and beyond.

INDONESIANS FOR MANKIND Distinguished scholar, scientists and former President of Indonesia made remarkable contribution to mankind. BACHRUDDIN JUSUF HABIBIE Indonesia’s third President is also a renown aeronautic engineer who holds 46 global patents. INDONESIATHEUNTOLDSTORIES 9
“HABIBIE THEOREM” In the history of aircraft making, until Habibie’s theory of CRACK PROGRESSION was discovered and published, it was not exactly known that an aircraft overtime can produce a metal fatigue which can be fatal if early detection method was not in place. His theory has made air travel safer, more efficient and easier to maintain. His theory also further extend the cruising capacity of an airline (longer distance), fuel efficiency and carrying capacity. All this is because his theory improve the aircraft weight factor. In other words, the weight of an aircraft is reduced but the carrying capacity and distance coverage is increased. It makes a lot of economic sense, because less is more. VERTICAL PLANE Habibie was entrusted to design a whole new aircraft alone. One of his masterpiece is the PROTOTYPE DO-31, a first propeller plane which is capable of taking off and landing vertically. This project was developed by HFB and Dornier industry. The design was later purchased by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration USA (NASA). WORLD-CLASS CEO He was the only non German native who sat as the second in command in the biggest aircraft manufacturer located in Hamburg, Germany. A BRAIN BEYOND. Habibie’s IQ is 200; far more superior than the world greatest intellects, Albert Einstein who scored 160, higher than Galleleo (165) or even Sir Isaac Newton (190). STANDING BY FOR THE R80 TO FLY Habibie who is now almost 80 never loses his passion and drive to invest a better aircraft product. Now, he is undertaking a project called R80. This aircraft is ideal to help Indonesia bridge its thousand islands because it can take off and land at short runways and on short flights (hoppers). It is expected to begin its maiden flight in 2016. INDONESIATHEUNTOLDSTORIES 10
WIWEKO SOEPONO, THE INVENTOR OF TWO CREW COCKPIT DESIGN In the past, wide-body commercial aircraft was typically flown by 3—5 people in the cockpit. It was Wiweko Soepono who initiated the idea to fly a wide-body airplane with a crew of two in the cockpit. Mr. Soepono who was also the first Asian to fly over the Pacific using a single engine plane invented: Forward Facing Crew Cockpit (FFCC) on Airbus A300-B4. This allows a wide body aircraft flown by two people instead of commonly by 3-5 people. SOSROBAHU, TJOKORDA RAKA SUKAWATI’S ROAD CONSTRUCTION TECHNIQUE Rotating fly over road construction is a technique invented by Tjokorda Raka Sukawati and it is called Sosrobahu method or tehnique. This technique allows traffic underneath to flow undisturbed thus easing up the road congestion which otherwise is caused by the construction. Patents have been registered worldwide.

THE GUERRILLA WAR STRATEGY OF ABDUL HARIS NASUTION Abdul Haris Nasution, a 5-star General with years of guerrilla combat experience against foreign colonialism wrote a fascinating text book on guerrilla warfare and used as a mandatory learning reference in many of the world’s elite military schools including the West Point, USA. This book is available in various world’s languages. KHOIRUL ANWAR’S 4G TECHNOLOGIES Dr. Eng. Khoirul Anwar is the inventor of and, at the same time, holds the patent of two FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) technologies used for high-speed satellite and 4G (Uplink). This method is able to solve the problem of the future wireless transmission that requires both low energy and high accuracy.

RUN ISLAND BANDA ISLAND NAIRA ISLAND AI ISLAND INDONESIATHEUNTOLDSTORIES 13 In late 17th century, a far away little island called Run in Moluccas was heavily disputed by the Dutch and the British; all in the interest of dominating the world’s major spices. The two eventually ceased fighting and signed a treaty and agreed to exchange Manhattan Island in New York (formerly New Amsterdam) with Run Island, the world’s top nutmeg producer. Nutmeg was then more valuable and much more needed than gold. RUN ISLAND, MOLUCCAS, MORE VALUABLE THAN MANHATTAN, NEW YORK

M uch of Indonesian history recorded on the global history is founded on the explorers’ pursuance of exotic goods and trading materials. The European fleet of merchant ships went to Indonesia in the 16th century was primarily attracted because of the abundance of spices particularly in the tip eastern part of Indonesia. No wonder this country is called the Spice Islands. These spices were not just in high demand in Europe, some of them were even more precious than gold. Exotic goods from far away islands were considered perfect gifts for their Majesties, Kings or Queens of these European Kingdoms. Famous explorer such as Columbus, Marco Polo, Magellan and Vasco de Gama were among thousand of others who journeyed a world and beyond and set foot on these islands SPICES TO SPICE UP LIVES INDONESIATHEUNTOLDSTORIES 15

WEDHUS GEMBEL M ount Merapi’s Wedhus Gembel is a hot cloud that could vaporize human body with the burning effect similar to that of high voltage electric shock or a lightning strike. Mount Merapi which is still active now often burst its ashes high up in the sky forming a dense cloud resembling the shape of goat or lamb fur. This cloud differs from ordinary cloud. It is very dense and curly and can be seen from miles away. The Javanese believes that such a great natural power must be named wisely as not to reflect fear.

Everyday, thousands of earthquakes take place in this archipelago. Fortunately, most of them scored low on Richter scale because most occur very deep under the oceans’ beds. Thus, the effect is less devastating. But when a major collision occurs in shallow water, a giant tsunami and aftermath is felt thousands of miles away.

They were taught to live a humble, modest live and to avoid greed. Environment is seen as part of their living ecosystem, rather than lifeless foreign objects. The community living in Bulukumba Regency, South CELEBES divides the forest into three zones. The first zone is Borong Karamaka (Forbidden Forest) where the forest potentials are prohibited to be exploited. The second is Borong Batasaya (Boundary Forest) where its wood can be used but based on traditional laws.

STANDING THROUGH THE TEST OF TIME FORTS D espite mentioned in the history that 459 forts were built in Indonesia, only 275 forts have been identified. Those historical buildings were scattered across Indonesia, from its large islands to the smallest ones, with various physical conditions. Now the forts have been standing throughout Indonesian history. Some forts such as Fort Vredeburg in Yogyakarta, Fort Rotterdam in Makassar of South Celebes, and Fort Marlborough in Bengkulu are still standing tall in excellent physical condition, serving as important city landmark. The forts in Indonesia served not only as protection from enemy, but also as a place for trade activities. Therefore, the architecture combined military architecture with rooms for traders from office, warehouse, place of worship, hospital, to soldier barrack. The forts resemble a complex or a small town consisting of various facilities for the community living in the forts. Generally, the forts were situated along the coast near harbor, or along river banks. TROPICAL ART-DECO BANDUNG U ntil today, Bandung is still home to several best examples of Tropical Art-deco architecture in the world. These buildings in European architectural style were built in the 1920s, when the Dutch government was gradually moving its capital to Bandung. During that time, many wealthy Dutch people lived in Bandung, thus the city was named “Parijs van Java”—Paris of Java. The most famous building with deco architecture is Gedung Sate, the building which now become West Java Governor’s office. This glamorous building with antenna similar to satay combined a neo-classic style with indigenous elements, creating elegance and unique combination of West and East ambiance. Indonesia has been known as a nation rich of spices, that many other nations had been attracted to come and explore its resources since the 16th century. For several reasons foreigners like Portuguese, Dutch, and English made their effort to defend their position and monopoly trade in the country by developing their territories and forts.

INDONESIA,PELANGIDUNIA TRIBUTES TO THE LATE AND ETERNAL SOULS “NGABEN”, BALINESE CREMATION CEREMONY N gaben is a ceremony of incineration of corpse or cremation carried out by Hindu people in Bali, Indonesia. The essence of this ceremony is to send back the spirit of the ancestors (deceased people) to its origin. The ritual is usually performed festively without mourning. For some of us death is a sacred event that needs special ceremony to honor it. In Indonesia, some rituals of death are still preserved in its people’s culture up to this moment: CEMETERY IN TRUNYAN VILLAGE, KINTAMANI, BALI T runyan is the name of a village situated at the edge of Batur Lake, Kintamani, Bali. When a villager died, the corpse would not be burried on the ground, instead, it would be laid to rest on a large stone which has 7 concaved surfaces. The dead body of the deceased will only be covered by rudimentary bamboo cages. Strangely, despite the absence of embalmment, the corpse would not cause stench. The explanation on why the corpse which is only laid on the ground do not spread stench although it is naturally decomposing lies on a tree called Taru Menyan. Taru Menyan trees produce scent that could neutralize the unpleasant odor from the dead body. Taru means tree, and Menyan means pleasant smell, it only grows in this village. Therefore, the tree Taru Menyan, which is later more popular as Trunyan, is believed as the origin of the village’s name. Their tradition arranged that the area of cemetery for the deceased villager would differ in accordance to the cause of death or their marital status. When a Trunyan villager dies naturally, the corpse would be covered in white cloth. Moreover, a funeral ceremony would be held for the deceased, and the corpse would be laid on the ground, under a big Taru Menyan tree in an area named Sema Wayah. If someone died of unnatural causes such as accident, suicide, or murder, the corpse would be laid in a different area named Sema Bantas. While for babies and children as well as unmarried adult, the deceased would be laid in Sema Muda. 77 INDONESIATHEUNTOLDSTORIES

In fact, our existence as a nation which dated back to thousands of years ago had very little place in the world history. Only after foreign settlement in Indonesia, we then began our nation and all its vast diversity being told to the public. Naturally we have been grateful to all those explorer, historians, and many more foreign discoverers who have been passionate enough to write about our country. Nevertheless, to further give us a sense of unity or our own identity, the Ministry aims at publishing this book to seek wisdom from our own identity. It is with this purpose we hope to accomplish a clear path towards our destiny and help develope a direction for the future path towards prosperity. We hope this publication will bring about pride and joy to everyone who simply never ceases to be amazed about this country, what it stands for and what make it so special to all of us. Enjoy reading and God Bless Indonesia. FREDDY H. TULUNG DIRECTOR GENERAL OF INFORMATION AND PUBLIC COMMUNICATION INDONESIATHEUNTOLDSTORIES i

    FOREWORD Geography is destiny.This book called INDONESIA THE UNTOLD STORIES is the premiere series of publication about the country’s best kept secrets information that astonishes not just every Indonesian, but the world alike. This coffee table style and format is designed to ease and entertain readers with picturesque and easy to digest content of all ages and walks of life. Indonesia which spans over 5,000 kilometers from east to west or equivalent range of Vladivostok to Sweden is a country of endless wonders and diversity waiting to be discovered. Out of 17,500 islands less than 6% even have names. No wonder if Indonesia is called with many precious phrases; from the jewels of equator, the amazon of the sea, the most diverse rainforest, and most of all the custodian of coral reef triangle. Our oceans contribute over 30% of air all creatures breathe in this planet. With so much to write about this country, we are confident that we will follow production of the next series and will welcome contributions, critics or even some photographic materials to enrich our library. We wish to acknowledge a special friend from Good News From Indonesia movement who relentlessly strive to spread the good news about this country. Please also join us in wishing all of Indonesian the very best and may this book brings the best of us; today, tomorrow and beyond.

    “HABIBIE THEOREM” In thehistory of aircraft making, until Habibie’s theory of CRACK PROGRESSION was discovered and published, it was not exactly known that an aircraft overtime can produce a metal fatigue which can be fatal if early detection method was not in place. His theory has made air travel safer, more efficient and easier to maintain. His theory also further extend the cruising capacity of an airline (longer distance), fuel efficiency and carrying capacity. All this is because his theory improve the aircraft weight factor. In other words, the weight of an aircraft is reduced but the carrying capacity and distance coverage is increased. It makes a lot of economic sense, because less is more. VERTICAL PLANE Habibie was entrusted to design a whole new aircraft alone. One of his masterpiece is the PROTOTYPE DO-31, a first propeller plane which is capable of taking off and landing vertically. This project was developed by HFB and Dornier industry. The design was later purchased by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration USA (NASA). WORLD-CLASS CEO He was the only non German native who sat as the second in command in the biggest aircraft manufacturer located in Hamburg, Germany. A BRAIN BEYOND. Habibie’s IQ is 200; far more superior than the world greatest intellects, Albert Einstein who scored 160, higher than Galleleo (165) or even Sir Isaac Newton (190). STANDING BY FOR THE R80 TO FLY Habibie who is now almost 80 never loses his passion and drive to invest a better aircraft product. Now, he is undertaking a project called R80. This aircraft is ideal to help Indonesia bridge its thousand islands because it can take off and land at short runways and on short flights (hoppers). It is expected to begin its maiden flight in 2016. INDONESIATHEUNTOLDSTORIES 10

    WIWEKO SOEPONO, THE INVENTOROF TWO CREW COCKPIT DESIGN In the past, wide-body commercial aircraft was typically flown by 3—5 people in the cockpit. It was Wiweko Soepono who initiated the idea to fly a wide-body airplane with a crew of two in the cockpit. Mr. Soepono who was also the first Asian to fly over the Pacific using a single engine plane invented: Forward Facing Crew Cockpit (FFCC) on Airbus A300-B4. This allows a wide body aircraft flown by two people instead of commonly by 3-5 people. SOSROBAHU, TJOKORDA RAKA SUKAWATI’S ROAD CONSTRUCTION TECHNIQUE Rotating fly over road construction is a technique invented by Tjokorda Raka Sukawati and it is called Sosrobahu method or tehnique.

This is one of much historical local wisdoms which is still practiced by some communities. TALLASA KAMASE-MASE is the principle of life for Kajang community. They were taught to live a humble, modest live and to avoid greed. Environment is seen as part of their living ecosystem, rather than lifeless foreign objects. The community living in Bulukumba Regency, South CELEBES divides the forest into three zones. The first zone is Borong Karamaka (Forbidden Forest) where the forest potentials are prohibited to be exploited. The second is Borong Batasaya (Boundary Forest) where its wood can be used but based on traditional laws. The last is Borong Luarayya (Utilization Forest) where people may plant woods like bitti or crops like cocoa. These local wisdoms can effectively preserve the sustainable environment. PELA GADONG is a concept to establish brotherhood among kampong (communities) in Moluccas particularly the Ambon Island. The idea was born from the agreements of inter-communities’ ancestors. That is still well preserved by their generations in upholding social law. Source : palingindonesia.com Sources : parisada.org, indonesia.travel INDONESIATHEUNTOLDSTORIES 70

    STANDING THROUGH THETEST OF TIME FORTS D espite mentioned in the history that 459 forts were built in Indonesia, only 275 forts have been identified. Those historical buildings were scattered across Indonesia, from its large islands to the smallest ones, with various physical conditions. Now the forts have been standing throughout Indonesian history. Some forts such as Fort Vredeburg in Yogyakarta, Fort Rotterdam in Makassar of South Celebes, and Fort Marlborough in Bengkulu are still standing tall in excellent physical condition, serving as important city landmark. The forts in Indonesia served not only as protection from enemy, but also as a place for trade activities. Therefore, the architecture combined military architecture with rooms for traders from office, warehouse, place of worship, hospital, to soldier barrack. The forts resemble a complex or a small town consisting of various facilities for the community living in the forts. Generally, the forts were situated along the coast near harbor, or along river banks. TROPICAL ART-DECO BANDUNG U ntil today, Bandung is still home to several best examples of Tropical Art-deco architecture in the world. These buildings in European architectural style were built in the 1920s, when the Dutch government was gradually moving its capital to Bandung. During that time, many wealthy Dutch people lived in Bandung, thus the city was named “Parijs van Java”—Paris of Java. The most famous building with deco architecture is Gedung Sate, the building which now become West Java Governor’s office. This glamorous building with antenna similar to satay combined a neo-classic style with indigenous elements, creating elegance and unique combination of West and East ambiance. Indonesia has been known as a nation rich of spices, that many other nations had been attracted to come and explore its resources since the 16th century. For several reasons foreigners like Portuguese, Dutch, and English made their effort to defend their position and monopoly trade in the country by developing their territories and forts.

    INDONESIA,PELANGIDUNIA TRIBUTES TO THELATE AND ETERNAL SOULS “NGABEN”, BALINESE CREMATION CEREMONY N gaben is a ceremony of incineration of corpse or cremation carried out by Hindu people in Bali, Indonesia. The essence of this ceremony is to send back the spirit of the ancestors (deceased people) to its origin. The ritual is usually performed festively without mourning. For some of us death is a sacred event that needs special ceremony to honor it. In Indonesia, some rituals of death are still preserved in its people’s culture up to this moment: CEMETERY IN TRUNYAN VILLAGE, KINTAMANI, BALI T runyan is the name of a village situated at the edge of Batur Lake, Kintamani, Bali. When a villager died, the corpse would not be burried on the ground, instead, it would be laid to rest on a large stone which has 7 concaved surfaces. The dead body of the deceased will only be covered by rudimentary bamboo cages. Strangely, despite the absence of embalmment, the corpse would not cause stench. The explanation on why the corpse which is only laid on the ground do not spread stench although it is naturally decomposing lies on a tree called Taru Menyan. Taru Menyan trees produce scent that could neutralize the unpleasant odor from the dead body. Taru means tree, and Menyan means pleasant smell, it only grows in this village. Therefore, the tree Taru Menyan, which is later more popular as Trunyan, is believed as the origin of the village’s name. Their tradition arranged that the area of cemetery for the deceased villager would differ in accordance to the cause of death or their marital status. When a Trunyan villager dies naturally, the corpse would be covered in white cloth. Moreover, a funeral ceremony would be held for the deceased, and the corpse would be laid on the ground, under a big Taru Menyan tree in an area named Sema Wayah. If someone died of unnatural causes such as accident, suicide, or murder, the corpse would be laid in a different area named Sema Bantas. While for babies and children as well as unmarried adult, the deceased would be laid in Sema Muda. 77 INDONESIATHEUNTOLDSTORIES
