10th November, It's Hero Day!

Hello, reader! ^^
It's 10th November now!
First, I'd like to say 'Happy Hero Day' for Indonesia!!!
In this occasion,  I'll write about the most famous Hero from the 10th November tragedy that happened in Surabaya  in 1945, It's none other than Sutomo or 'Bung Tomo'..

Sutomo's picture.
Sutomo were born in Surabaya (3rd October 1920-7th October 1981), was one of the most famous National hero of Indonesia. He had been a journalist before but later he decided to join politic. He was remembered with his trademark, and that's his way of talking in the radio's opening with full of passion that had woken up the youth's spirit at that time. Even though in the end Indonesia lost at 10th November tragedy, he was still remembered as on of the national heroes that was really influential.

After the independence of Indonesia, he tried to enter politics but he didn't feel happy so he decided to step down from it. But, in the early 1970s, he was imprisoned because he opposed government because the government feel burdened and afraid of his critics. A year later, he was released. He's a good father, he worked hard for his children to get the best education. and He's also very faithful in his religion. He died in Arafah, Saudi Arabia in 7th October 1981.

About more than 15000 victims died in the 10th November tragedy. Their sacrifice is none other than to protect Indonesia from other countries' attacks. The day that had eaten many blood from the victims until now called as Hero's day.
