The East Java DPRD Chairman Musyafak Rouf called on the public to commemorate the 81st anniversary of the Independence of the Republic of Indonesia by strengthening unity and the spirit of mutual cooperation.

According to Musyafak, independence should not be viewed merely as an annual ceremony. The anniversary should serve as a reminder to continue safeguarding national unity while working toward a better future for all Indonesians.

“Independence is not merely about celebration, but about the spirit of continuing to uphold unity, strengthen mutual cooperation, and build a better future for all Indonesians,” Musyafak said.

Unity and Mutual Cooperation as the Nation’s Strength

Musyafak emphasized that Indonesia’s journey toward becoming a strong nation cannot be separated from the contributions of all elements of society, from farmers, fishermen, workers, school students, university students, members of the Indonesian National Armed Forces (TNI) and Indonesian National Police (Polri), healthcare workers, santri, kiai, and MSME owners to younger generations and Indonesian families.

“From farmers and fishermen to workers, school students, university students, TNI-Polri personnel, healthcare workers, santri, kiai, MSME owners, younger generations, and Indonesian families—we are all part of this nation’s great journey,” he said.

Therefore, Musyafak called on everyone to continue moving forward together in a spirit of togetherness. He said that unity and mutual cooperation are essential foundations for keeping Indonesia strong in the face of various challenges.

“Let us continue moving forward together to keep Indonesia strong, sovereign, just, and prosperous,” Musyafak said.

The Benefits of Independence Must Be Felt by All

According to Musyafak, the spirit of unity should also be reflected in addressing the issues faced by the public. Protecting workers and ensuring access to basic services are important parts of efforts to make the benefits of independence tangible.
