On August 9 1945, 3 big figures, namely Ir. Soekarno, Drs. Moh. Hatta, and Radjiman Wediodiningrat were invited to visit Saigon (Dalat), the seat of General Terauchi. The invitation of these 3 figures was to symbolically inaugurate Ir. Soekarno and Drs. Moh. Hatta as chairman and deputy chairman of PPKI.

Several PPKI tasks were discussed in the session, for example in passing laws, electing the president and vice president and forming a national committee to assist the president. After all its tasks were completed, PPKI was officially disbanded on August 29 1945.


History of PPKI

On 12 August 1945 General Terauchi stated that the Japanese government in Tokyo would grant independence to Indonesia which could be done on 24 August 1945. On August 15, 1945 Japan surrendered to the allies and told Japan to maintain the status quo. Because this incident seemed to dash hopes of liberating Indonesia.

PPKI initially planned to hold a trial on August 16 1945, but because of the rengasdengklok incident, namely differences of opinion between the old and young groups regarding the time and place for the implementation of Indonesia's independence session it's cancelled. Young people urge Ir. Soekarno to immediately issue a proclamation.

However, the older group refused on the grounds that the Proclamation of Indonesian Independence had to be prepared carefully and wanted to discuss this with other PPKI members. Because of this pressure, young people, namely Adam Malik and Chairul Saleh, kidnapped Ir. Soekarno and Moh. Hatta was taken to Rengasdengklok, Karawang at 04.30 WIB.

Originally on August 16 1945, Thursday, the Proclamation of Independence would be read by Ir. Soekarno and Moh. Hatta at Djiaw Kie Siong's house. The text of the proclamation has been made and the red and white flag has also been raised by the Rengasdengklok fighters on the previous day, Wednesday 15 August, because they thought that the next day Indonesia would independent.

Kunto and Achmad Soebardjo, who had not heard from Jakarta, decided to go to Rangasdengklok to pick up Ir. Soekarno and Moh. Hatta went to Jakarta to read the proclamation at Jalan Pegangsaan Timur 56. On the 16th at midnight the group arrived in Jakarta.

The next day, August 17 1945, a proclamation reading ceremony was held with the text of the proclamation of Indonesian Independence typed by Sayuti Melik used a typewriter taken from the office of the Chief Representative of the German Navy, Major (Marine) Dr. Hermann Kandeler. The proclamation was heard to thousands of Indonesians secretly through broadcasts by radio employees using Japanese-controlled transmitters.
