learned a lot from Major General TNI Hartono, who was later promoted to General TNI and became the Chief of Staff of TNI. These figures from the ‘45 generation played a crucial role in shaping my leadership style, attitude, and values. They instilled in me the importance of patriotism, confidence, intellect, sense of humor, and flexibility. Their resilience, sacrifice, and dedication to the nation’s independence inspired me to always strive for the best in everything I do. They taught me the value of leading by example, of putting the nation’s interests above personal gain, and of always being ready to adapt and overcome any challenges that come my way.
The legacy of the ‘45 generation lives on in me and in every young officer who has had the privilege of learning from them. As a military leader, I carry with me the spirit of ’45, the spirit of independence, sacrifice, and dedication to the nation. I strive to honor the sacrifices of those who came before me by serving my country with honor, integrity, and dedication. I am proud to be part of the legacy of the ‘45 generation, and I will continue to uphold their values and principles as I lead the next generation of military leaders in Indonesia.
