Commemorating Hero's Day is a must for Indonesian people. Because the heroes have protected the country by risking their lives.
The commemoration of Heroes' Day on November 10 was based on the battle that took place in Surabaya, East Java. This battle took place between the Indonesian people and the British troops. The Battle of Surabaya took place after independence, namely November 10, 1945. In fact, the battle was also the most difficult and the biggest.
The battle that underlies Hero's Day also lasts for 3 weeks. At that time, British troops wanted Indonesia to surrender and become a colony of the Dutch East Indies.
One of the quotes to commemorate Heroes' Day from President Soekarno is "A great nation is a nation that respects the services of its heroes."
