Story Supersemar runoff

"Harto, I already recognized as a world leader. Nasakom concept already sell to nations in the world, now I have to dissolve the PKI. Where should I put down? "

Bung Karno would stubbornly refused to dissolve the PKI. First he was not sure who planned the coup PKI. It is believed that only the individual elements together PKI misguided elements outside forces who designed it all. Suharto himself was bored and wanted to give to persuade Bung Karno dissolve the PKI. Difficult position, because on the one hand, he respected the President but on the other hand, the students, demonstrators, even generals like HR Dharsono, Kemal Idris or the Special Forces commander Col. Sarwo also urged to take strong action to Bung Karno.

Assistant Suharto, Gen. Alam has proposed to use non Armed Forces, civilian persons known to be close to Bung Karno. Be Alam sent Hashim Ning and Dasaad to persuade Bung Karno. This attempt also failed, even Hashim Ning should be exposed ashtray thrown Bung Karno, "You are one of Suharto" So Bung Karno screaming.

"... Even Hashim Ning should be exposed ashtray thrown Bung Karno," You are one of Suharto "So Bung Karno shouted"

Gen. Amir Mahmud, Commander Jaya time it recognizes that everything is chaos, even practically no military discipline. Because there are attractive force between the armed forces themselves. Which is where the pro-Sukarno and Soeharto supportive. Time Bung Karno form a new cabinet, many names are not in the actual generals 'approval' Armed Forces. General Nasution misalnyanya also ordered to not allow Gen. Moersid and Gen. Sarbini go to the Department of Defense and Security for the handover.

On the morning of March 11, 1966, Gen.. Sabur has called Commander Jaya, Amir Mahmud asked security at the cabinet meeting that day. Of course Amir Mahmud guarantee safety, but he also did not know there will be a wild forces of General Kemal Idris. Even Commander Jaya also exist in the palace veranda accompany Bung Karno together Deputy Premier Leimena, Subandrio and Chairul Saleh prior to jointly go into the trial.

When Bung Karno was reading a speech. Suddenly General Sabur sent a memorandum to Amir Mahmud who asked him out for a while. Memorandum was silenced by Amir Mahmud, because he could not play slonong boy out of the meeting chaired by the President. Apparently General Sabur impatient and did not want to take the risk, then he delivered his own memorandum to the president.

In a note Amir Mahmud:
"I see the hand shaking Bung Karno read notanya, then talk to Subandrio. After the hearing submitted to Mr. Leimena. Bung Karno and hurried scramble to leave the palace, followed Subandrio and Chairul Saleh ".

Later General Kemal Idris with spontaneous speaking style, admitted that he intentionally put the troops in front of the Palace. He ordered his men to take off his uniform identity of the troops. So impressed unknown forces were besieging the Palace who was doing a cabinet meeting. Whereas the aim to capture Subandrio. But it made ​​a kind of psy war that affect the course of the meeting.

Suharto who are sick with the flu that day, so it should be a break in his house sent General Joseph, Basuki Rahmat and Amir Mahmud to follow Bung Karno who fled to the Bogor Palace. Suharto message is clear. He is willing to bear the responsibility if given the authority to implement the security and political stability.

Adjutant President, General Sabur recalled,
"Actually, when the General came to Bogor Palace. Bung Karno not want to receive. I just urge to meet, so the bit according to Bung Karno. However when it Bung Karno allergy with generals who were sent by President Soeharto. Then Mr. Basuki Rahmat as the oldest describes his arrival and bring a message Soeharto. Surprisingly Bung Karno welcomes open and ask alternatives to overcome the political situation ".

Gen. Joseph showed harsh attitude. Maybe personally Joseph and Amir Mahmud already known to be close to Bung Karno, so get used to catapult opinions. If they usually always silent when Bung Karno insist, this time General Joseph would not give up and continue to urge Bung Karno to resolve the problem. This action had not previously been done by subordinates, ministers, generals though. Especially those who respect to the Bung Karno.

Gen. Joseph recall in his memoirs

"Bung Karno argues, that should be separated persons who were tried by the communist party. We show evidence that, the party and the people / person as a unity of movement. Equally as guilty. The argument that we break, that if Bung Karno remove the element of 'com' it the authority he will fall. I say, quite the contrary sir. By removing the communists. Authority of the father will go up, and people believe it. Then we can convince Bung Karno that Nasution was not behind all of this. Because Bung Karno suspect that someday will lead AD Nasution against Sukarno. Actually, the most important is how, psychologically able to believe Bung Karno, that his safety and his family is guaranteed. The more so because the situation is not clear that this ".

This testimony also dismissed the issue gunpoint as said Lt. Sukardjo Wilardjito, that General M Panggabean and Gen. Basuki Rahmat pointing a gun to the head of Bung Karno.

When it does Bung Karno worrying about family security. He did not want any elements of excessive military, after hearing the news, Nyoto - one minister - who mysteriously disappeared after returning from a cabinet meeting. It is said that General Soemitro suspected men who kidnapped on the way home. Hitherto unknown whereabouts Nyoto. It also makes Bung Karno pleaded hugging Gen. Amir Mahmud when his forces captured Soebandrio at the Presidential Palace.

"Please do not kill ya he Mir ...".

After the General and Bung Karno formulate a concept, then Soebandrio, Leimena and Chairul Saleh on incoming call. First Bung Karno asked to Soebandrio
"How to Ban? do you agree? "

Soebandrio responsibility.
"Yes how Bung Karno already agreed without consulting with us"
Then cut Bung Karno, "but do you agree, right?"
Answered again "If it can be verbal command, sir. Do not be written "
Soebandrio just remember, that the generals glared at him, because his proposal to the Bung Karno.

Then Soebandrio and Chairul Saleh joined entries. The letter had been corrected. There are four things. First, President Sukarno provide credentials to General Suharto For securing Jakarta, also need to work together with other elements of power. Secondly, the mandate recipient shall report all actions to the president. Third, the receiver shall secure the mandate of the President and his family. Fourth, the recipient shall mandate to preserve the teachings of Bung Karno.

After the turn of the Generals who are not satisfied with the formulation of Soebandrio, because shrink authority General Suharto. After a pause the afternoon prayer, they returned again to formulate a letter granting the authority. The new concept was typed by General Sabur.

Regarding the controversy that the letter was typed on letterhead of the Army Headquarters. General Sabur said

"Precisely Bung Karno and the General mencorat streak on blank paper. But I forgot when I copy to the typewriter was wearing letterhead AD or not. Clearly I typed in the pavilion next. There Mrs. Hartini and Mangil aide who saw me typing "

Then typing was brought back into the living room. Having read in conjunction with, and Bung Karno asked Leimena opinion, which answered.

"No comment ik helemaal Laat het aan u over. I leave it entirely to you "

Chairul Saleh asked the President to pray before taking a decision. The most recent was the opinion of Soebandrio.
"Als u deze brief tekent and Valt u in the trap. If this letter is signed, the same as in a trap "

The General increasingly annoyed with Soebandrio. Gen. Joseph was given a code to Gen. Amir Mahmud so brushing Soebandrio later. Increasingly tense atmosphere. All feel like stopping the clock. No one dared to leave the place. Gen. Amir Mahmud already imagine her disappointment Suharto if they returned to Jakarta with his bare hands.

Suddenly Bung Karno asked to Amir Mahmud, once again ask the opinion Obviously there is no doubt in the eyes of Bung Karno.

"Please pack. Bismilahhirrrahmannirahim just "replied Commander Jakarta.
Finally Bung Karno signed a letter which we know as Supersemar today.

There is another interesting that we know Supersemar only one sheet of paper. While General Sabur said

"Not a piece. I typed in the two papers. And each triplicate. Bung Karno just signed a major coffee. The paper brought Mr. Basuki Rahmat to Soeharto. While coffee or oppression number two, I save. Mr. Yusuf store or coffee oppression bottom number three "

Supersemar was brought Brigadier General Soecipto - Chairman KOTI, and given to Colonel Boediono, the secretary of the Army Headquarters who brought the letter to the office of GV - Koti at Merdeka Barat for the photocopy because the Army Headquarters office no photocopiers. Former Secretary of State Moerdiono later said that he had asked fotocopian as the legal basis for the preparation of the dissolution of the PKI. But not given by Boediono. After Boediono died, lost also the authentic letter.

Gen. Joseph did not know if the letter is composed of two sheets can be shortened into one sheet. It may occur in the course of Suharto to the headquarters of AD. But whatever it is, according to the letter together with what he saw in Bogor.

Sejahrawan Ben Anderson added based on research interviews with Cakrabirawa soldier who brought the typewriter, it's likely that the main letter brought to Suharto could cause turmoil. In a sense, there is the impression AD forcing the President to sign. So Suharto ordered to copy it to another paper. This probably does not realize that copying it is made into a sheet. Although without losing the essence of the letter.

"Suharto even dare to make a declaration of President No. 5, signed on behalf of President Sukarno, without knowledge of Bung Karno. This edict to capture 15 ministers suspected Communist sympathizers"

General Suharto was indeed dissolve the PKI with Supersemar foundation. It makes Bung Karno was General Suharto has gone too far in political affairs.

On March 13th Marines General Hartono accompany Mr. Leimena usher a new warrant issued Bung Karno addressed to General Suharto. It contained a sort of letter of correction to the irregularities in the application Supersemar, ie dissolve the PKI without reporting his actions to the President. After reading it. Pak Harto is not denied any irregularities. He answered verbally, all conducted into his own responsibility.

"Yes I do have to do it. That day I also dissolve the PKI without coordination with other forces commander and Bung Karno. This is called a strategy, not insubordination. Subsequent letter from Bung Karno on March 13, I do not need to pay attention. Since I have the strength in my back. Students, People's Army and angry "

Suharto even dare to make a declaration of President No. 5, signed on behalf of President Sukarno, without knowledge of Bung Karno. This edict to capture 15 ministers suspected Communist sympathizers. History can not be repeated. Warrant are already out it become the ultimate weapon to degrade Bung Karno own. History has been written and a new regime to continue the record of this country.
