Kali ini saya berpihak dan setuju dengan KSAU.

TNI AU
Tolak Stasiun Kereta Cepat di Lanud Halim!

Setelah keluar izin Amdal terkait rencana pembangunan kereta cepat Jakarta - Bandung, kini muncul surat dari Kepala Staf Angkatan Udara (KSAU) yang menyatakan sikap tidak setuju lahannya dipakai.

Berdasarkan sumber INILAHCOM, mengacu kepada Peraturan Pemerintah Nomor 27 Tahun 2014 tanggal 24 April 2014 tentang pengelolaan barang milik negara/daerah, Surat Menteri Pertahanan Nomor B/70/M/1/2016 tanggal 15 Januari 2016 tentang rekomendasi penggunaan lahan Kemhan/TNI dhi. TNI AU.

Kemudian, Surat Kasau Nomor B/39-09/32/16/Disfaskonau tanggal 13 Januari 2016 tentang tanggapan atas penggunaan BMN TNI AU Lanud Halim Perdanakusuma oleh PT Kereta Cepat Indonesia China.

Mengacu dasar diatas, dengan hormat dilaporkan bahwa lokasi pembangunan stasiun kereta cepat atau HST (high speed train) Jakarta - Bandung dan stasiun LRT (light rail transit) di Komplek Trikora Lanud Halim Perdanakusuma pada lokasi yang direkomendasikan Kementerian Pertahanan kepada Kementerian BUMN tidak dapat disetujui.

Karena, Lanud Halim Perdanakusuma sebagai pangkalan militer merupakan objek vital yang perlu mendapat pengaman khusus untuk pelaksanaan tugas dan perannya dalam rangka operasi pertahanan udara dan penerbangan VVIP.

Sebab, didalamnya juga terdapat sejumlah 300 unit perumahan prajurit, masjid, pura agung, taman sari, sekolah 3 unit (SD Angkasa 7, SMPN 80 dan SMU Angkasa), mess organik 2 unit, kantor dan laboratorium psikologi TNI AU.

Di samping itu, hasil sosialisasi menunjukkan bahwa seluruh prajurit menolak keberadaan stasiun kereta cepat Jakarta - Bandung dan stasiun LRT di Komplek Trikora Lanud Halim Perdanakusuma dan rencana tersebut meresahkan prajurit TNI AU yang bermukim di Komplek Trikora Lanud Halim Perdanakusuma dan hal ini akan berdampak negatif pada pelaksanaan tugas.

Untuk mewadahi kepentingan umum, lokasi pembangunan stasiun kereta cepat Jakarta - Bandung dan stasiun LRT disarankan pada lokasi tanah eks Cipinang Melayu seluas 20 ha (kebutuhan yang direncanakan sekira 8 ha).

Terhadap lokasi yang disarankan perlu dilakukan pembahasan teknis secara khusus berkaitan dengan aspek intelijen strategis dan faktor pengamanan obyek vital, prosedur pemanfaatan aset/BMN serta hal-hal teknis lainnya sesuai ketentuan.

Bandung, W Java (ANTARA News) - Vice President Jusuf Kalla has ordered state-owned weapons manufacturer PT Pindad to retrofit the National Defense Forces (TNI)s tanks.

"When it comes to medium tanks we have retrofitted them," PT Pindad President Director Silmy Karim said here Wednesday.

Since 2015 PT Pindad has cooperated with friendly countries to retrofit the governments medium tanks, he said.

"Regarding the medium tanks, we have cooperated with Turkey since 2015. The prototype of the medium tank is expected to be completed in 2017. It will use cannon in caliber 105 mm so we adjust its function to a modern tank," he said.

Vice President Jusuf Kalla, accompanied by Defense Minister Ryamizard Ryacudu and Industry Minister Saleh Husin, was in the West Java provincial capital of Bandung to visit the factories owned by state-owned weapons manufacturer PT Pindad and state-owned aircraft maker PT Dirgantara Indonesia.

In the course of the visit, the vice president agreed to a contract for the purchase of several weapons to strengthen the countrys military armament system.

"I come here along with the defense minister and the industry minister to re-evaluate our defense industry. The objective is to improve the countrys defense capability so the weapon industry will increasingly become more self-reliant," he said. (*)

Police intensifying manhunt for radical group in Poso
Kamis, 21 Januari 2016 22:31 WIB | 697 Views

Jakarta (ANTARA News) - The National Police are stepping up cooperation with the Indonesian Military in the manhunt for the East Indonesia Mujahidin radical group in Poso, Central Sulawesi, in the wake of January 14s terror attacks in Jakarta.

"We are intensifying (the manhunt)," Chief of the National Polices Public Relations Division Inspector General Anton Charliyan said at the National Police Headquarters here on Thursday.

He said the East Indonesia Mujahidin radical group is believed to have links to the perpetrators of the Jakarta terror attacks which left eight people dead and 20 others injured.

"They (the East Indonesia Mujahidin radical group) are a pro-ISIS group," he said.

Charliyan said the police feared that Poso which serves as the stronghold of the East Indonesia Mujahidin radical group may turn into another Moro in the Philippines. "We fear Poso will become another Moro. Dont let them use Poso as the stronghold of their struggle," he said.

Through the joint operation code-named Tinombala, the National Police and the Indonesian Military have launched a manhunt for leader of the East Indonesia Mujahidin radical group Santoso and members of the group.

Tinombala is the continuation of the operation called Camar Maleo IV which terminated in December last year.(*)

First Indonesian Armed Force General, our Armed Force Leader during fight in our Independence war against Dutch and British

soedirman.jpg



General of the Army Raden Soedirman (Perfected Spelling: Sudirman; 24 January 1916[a] – 29 January 1950) was a high-ranking Indonesian military officer during the Indonesian National Revolution. The first commander-in-chief of the Indonesian Armed Forces, he continues to be widely respected in the country.

Born in Purbalingga, Dutch East Indies, Sudirman moved to Cilacap in 1916 and was raised by his uncle. A diligent student at a Muhammadiyah-run school, he became respected within the community for his devotion to Islam. After dropping out of teacher's college, in 1936 he began working as a teacher, and later headmaster, at a Muhammadiyah-run elementary school. After the Japanese occupied the Indies in 1942, Sudirman continued to teach, before joining the Japanese-sponsoredDefenders of the Homeland as a battalion commander in Banyumas in 1944. In this position he put down a rebellion by his fellow soldiers, but was later interned in Bogor.

After Indonesia proclaimed its independence on 17 August 1945, Sudirman led a break-out then went to Jakarta to meet President Sukarno. Tasked with overseeing the surrender of Japanese soldiers in Banyumas, he established a division of the People's Safety Body there. On 12 November 1945, at an election to decide the military's commander-in-chief in Yogyakarta, Sudirman was chosen over Oerip Soemohardjo in a close vote. While waiting to be confirmed, Sudirman ordered an assault on British and Dutch forces in Ambarawa. The ensuing battle and British withdrawal strengthened Sudirman's popular support, and he was ultimately confirmed on 18 December.

Early life

Sudirman was raised with stories of heroic deeds and taught the etiquette and ways of the priyayi, or noble caste,[6] as well as the work ethic and simplicity of the wong cilik, or commoners.[7] For his religious education, he studied Islam under KyaiHajji Qahar with his brother; Sudirman was a religious child, and always prayed on time. He was soon entrusted with performing both the adhan and iqama, or calls to prayer.[8] When he was seven years old, Sudirman was enrolled at a school for natives (hollandsch inlandsche school), where he was an average student.[6][9] The family, although it had enough to live by, was not rich. During his tenure as sub-district head, Cokrosunaryo had not accumulated much wealth, and in Cilacap he became a distributor of Singer sewing machines.[4]

In his fifth year of school, Sudirman asked to leave his studies, concerned with the ridicule he faced at the government-run school;[d] this request was at first refused, but Sudirman was transferred to a junior high school run by Taman Siswa in his seventh year of school.[6][9][10] In his eighth year, Sudirman transferred to Wirotomo Junior High School[e] after the Taman Siswa School was found to be unregistered and closed under the Wild School Ordinance.[10][11]

[12] Many of Sudirman's teachers at Wirotomo were Indonesian nationalists, which influenced his views of the Dutch colonists.[11] Sudirman studied diligently at school; his teacher Suwarjo Tirtosupono later recalled that Sudirman would already be studying second-term lessons while the class was still in term one. Although he performed poorly in Javanese calligraphy, Sudirman was strong in mathematics, science, and writing in both Dutch and Indonesian.[13] Sudirman also became more religious under the guidance of his teacher Raden Mohamad Kholil; his classmates named him "hajji" because of his devotion to his prayers, and Sudirman took up preaching to other students.[14] Aside from his studies and religious activities, Sudirman also served in the school's musical troupe and on the football team, on which he was a defender.[15]

Although Cokrosunaryo's death in 1934 left the family poor, Sudirman was allowed to continue his studies without paying until he graduated later that year;[14][16] after his step-father's death, Sudirman also devoted more time to studying the Sunnah and prayer.[17]By age 19, Sudirman had become a pupil teacher at Wirotomo.[11]

While at Wirotomo Sudirman was a member of the Wirotomo Student Union, drama club, and band.[18] He helped establish a branch of the Hizboel Wathan, an organisation similar to the Boy Scouts, which was run by the Islamic establishment Muhammadiyah. Sudirman became the leader of the Cilacap division after graduating from Wirotomo;[19][20]he was tasked with deciding and planning his groups' activities. He emphasised the need for religious studies, insisting that the contingents from Cilacap attend Muhammadiyah conferences throughout Java.[21] He taught the younger members[f] about the history of Islam and the importance of morality, while with older members he enforced near-military discipline.[22]

Rare photo, when he was still young (29 years old), I believe it is the moment in which he become our Military Leader. During Indonesian Independence Movement, the leaders of the movement are actually still in their 30's like Soekarno, Muhammad Hatta, and Soedirman.
