Supratman, son of an Indonesian colonial army instructor, was born on 9 th may 1903. He had five
sisters, but no brothers. When his father retired from the army the family moved to Cimahi. At
the age of seven his father sent him to “Budi Utomo” elementary school, where he proved to be
one of the bright pupils. In 1912 his mother died. Two years afterwards he joined his eldest sister
in Ujung Pandang. His sister added “Wage Rudolf” to his name so it became Wage rUdolf
Supratman. She didi this to enable her to send him to the Ducth elementary school (HIS). He
joined in the second year.
Completing his elementary school he continued his study at the Teacher’s Training school. He
graduted in 1920 and became a teacher. In 1923 the government appointed him to teach at
Singkang, another town in South Sulawesi. But his sister objected. At last he resigned. He worked
in alawyer’s office for a year and then he went to Bandung and worked as a journalist. One year
later he moved to Jakarta and worked for the “Sin po” newspaper. He married Mujenah in 1926,
but had no children. After ten years of marriage they divorced.
The birth of “Indonesia raya” was closely related to the awakening of Indonesia’s nationalist and
political movement. The song was first introduced by W.R. Supratman at the Indonesian Youth
Congress held on 28th October 1928 in Jakarta, when Indonesia’s Youth from different ethnic,
linguistic, cultural and religious background adopted the now famous Pledge of the Indonesia’s
Youth. In this they state that they belong to one nation, the Indonesian nation, have one
fatherland, Indonesia and acknowledge one language, the Bahasa Indonesia.
The pledge was leter recognized as the Youth Pledge which is now commemorated every year.
The song stressed the call for unity among Indonesians and it soon gained popularity. The song
