World War II that broke out in 1939, was the most deadly war ever seen in human history.
More than 20 million soldiers and 40 million civilians were killed. Plus the unrecorded, illustrating how powerful the war is
Atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki thus allies record the dark history of human life in the world.
Rain bullets, ash storms, plus Nuclear attack that menghujam from the sky Hiroshima and Nagasaki succeeded in destroying the whole city. Japanese crumble made. The Allies succeeded in conquering the Empire of Japan which at that time was in the Block of Poros with Germany and Italy.
Outbreaks of disease, famine, massacres that plagued, positioned Japan as a losing country in the war.
Japan under the leadership of Emperor Hirohito surrender unconditionally to the allies six days later.
Hirohito aware of the fight with the use of weapons is impossible to do japan that already in such a ruined form.
When Japan wanted to re-build its nation's civilization, when Japan wanted to rise from defeat, Hirohito gathered officials, ministers, and soldiers as well as his subjects.
During the meeting several state watchers reported how much damage had occurred, how much was the loss.
The troop leader also reported the number of soldiers killed by the deadly bombing.
No response was given by the Emperor, to comment on the report of his beloved man
Instantly Hirohito stood up with his sorrowful face as he asked the people present at the meeting. Questions not previously imagined.
"How many Living Teachers are there?" Hirohito shouted with concern.
No one responded, the officials in attendance looked surprised and bewildered by the question.
One of the generals was surprised, and objected to the Emperor's question. He also asked Hirohito.
"Why is that teacher Your Honor asked ,? and not the army? "cried the general.
"A lot of our soldiers died in the South China Sea, in Borneo, Celebes, Papua, Burma, and others. They died to defend the Fatherland and the Emperor. Why does the Emperor Master ask? "The general growled.
Hirohito, who was aware of the anxiety, replied promptly.
"Gentlemen, if anything else I do not ask, please gentlemen are not offended," Hirohito calmly.
"I hear the number of reports of our soldiers being killed, almost all our factories are destroyed, many scientists die, and now the nation is paralyzed," he explained.
"We must build from scratch, and only through our teachers can rebuild this land. We will fix education through the remaining teachers, "explained Hirohito.
"We will rise, we will be a respectable nation on this Earth," he shouted.
Hirohito is well aware of what is happening to his people, it is impossible to fight against a capability that is not qualified.
Building a nation can only be done by building human resources, and building a competent human can only be done through education.
So look at Japan right now.
Indonesia should learn from the Japanese way, 72 Years of independence achieved from the struggle of blood and sweat of the founders of the nation.
So where are our honors today?
The debates of political elites, power struggles, the destruction of the younger generation of drugs, western cultural shifts, the brawl between football supporters who result in death, karmic crisis, and a number of other complicated problems are more grounded than the progress of civilization.
It is time for the leader to turn the wheel to go for a complete change of Indonesia. It is time for the nation's leaders to open their eyes, that building this nation is not by increasing the debt of the country out there. Not by bringing in foreign investors, not by building giant factories. Not by building tall buildings, not by digging the ground to the bowels of the earth.
